Kabawa, a deeply personal restaurant from Chef Paul Carmichael and Momofuku, offers a nuanced and distinct perspective on Caribbean cuisine. Built around a set menu with plenty of choices, it’s a place to take your time, enjoy a meal, and discover something new each time you visit.Kabawa’s menu is a three-course, $145 prix fixe experience, exclusive of beverage, tax, and gratuity.  The restaurant is divided between kitchen counter seating, an immersive experience with direct chef service, or more secluded table seating.Structured to showcase the depth and diversity of Caribbean cuisine, our ingredients are thoughtfully procured, fusing local produce from neighborhoods right here in New York with specialty items sourced directly from the Caribbean. Every touch point — from the custom mosaics to the ingredient sourcing to the instrumental music — is intentional, tapping into Chef Paul’s upbringing in Barbados to reflect the vibrant, welcoming spirit of a Caribbean home.

    This place deserves all the hype. The drinks were delicious - twists on the classics and seamlessly paired with the food. The food, ridiculous! We came in for a snack and ending up eating most of the menu. The best part was the service. Everyone was friendly and attentive; we felt like favorite regulars. And a special shout out to Marley and Tristan - thank you for a perfect visit!
