Had an amazing experience, tried the mango passion drink and lions mane burger. They brought out a complimentary dessert and it was so delicious! Will definitely be back soon :)

The reviews are true — the food was truly exceptional! Everything was well flavored, delicious, and best of all, fully vegan!
Absolutely Wonderful! Glad there’s a real healthy option in the area and the service was amazing
I am Mint Porch Cafe's new number one fan.<br>Tucked inside the Flatbush Central Caribbean Marketplace.<br>Charming, casual, healthy, and delicious. Vegan. Highly recommend.<br>I had a mixed grilled vegetables rice bowl with simmered spinach and okra add-on, and it was just everything I could have wanted at that moment. Excellent. I can not wait to try more.<br>And so friendly!!
I love Mint Porch! The food is delicious!!!! This is the best vegan food I've ever tasted. Very flavorful. The owner and staff are absolutely amazing. I will be coming back.
Every dish was bursting with flavor. Don't miss the Grenadian hot chocolate: it will warm your soul on cold windy wintery days.
On 11/29/25 My husband and I traveled to Brooklyn in search of healthy authentic vegan food. It was worth the drive. Chef Isra began by serving us a beautiful blend of hibiscus tea followed by blueberries and salad. We also sampled some sorrel, yum. But that Food was absolutely delicious. My husband had a tri color brown rice base and Sweet Potatoes, tri Color Peppers,Sweet Plantains and add on jackfruit stew. AMAZING ! Then I had tri-color brown rice base, green and yellow squash tri-Color Peppers, sweet plantains and for add on spinach okra.AWESOME !!! Then just when we thought it was over she blessed us with a slice of upside down mixed berry cake WOW! This was such a great experience and chef Isra is warm, informative and very knowledgeable. We felt like we had visited her home and she kept coming out the kitchen with good eats that filled our tummy’s without the guilt because we ate clean. We will be back 😋
This place makes you feel like you discovered something special. The servings here are plentiful. Their menu doesn't waste words. I evaluate places by their service, and this one is exceptional. You won't regret coming here.
This food is prepared with love, it will soothe your soul and provide your body with tons of nutrients and delicious on top of everything. Each order is cooked fresh so be patient and wait for the goodness, so glad I discovered this hidden gem in Flatbush…you gotta come to Mint Porch!!
Mint Porch is a gem for fresh, flavorful, and healthy eats! Their custom healthy bowl is a standout—packed with vibrant ingredients and made just the way you like it. The callaloo soup is also a must-try, rich and comforting with a delicious Caribbean twist. Perfect spot if you’re looking for wholesome food that doesn’t compromise on taste!
The food was amazing at Mint Porch. My boyfriend and I were looking for something healthy nearby and decided upon mint porch. We were not disappointed. The chef and owner was so kind and knowledgeable about everything. She even provided us samples of her curry jackfruit, soup, and fresh juices. We ordered the spinach and sweet potato lasagna and our own bowl with quinoa, sweet potato, sweet plantain, scallion, tomatoes, and spinach and okra. Everything tasted so fresh and we felt so healthy and satisfied after. Will definitely be coming back again
I was greeted with enthusiasm and was even asked if I wanted to try some of the soups and I even got a taste of the delicious fresh mango juice with some ginger. The food was delicious and fulfilling. Will definitely come back here for more!
stumbled on this gem in the neighborhood. Chef Isra Gordon is a wonderful culinary talent. She calls her food vegan alkaline and it is just delicious. The herbs and spices bring the taste of the food into a delight in the mouth.
Located inside of a local Caribbean Marketplace that also has a food court. I ordered the build your own bowl option and added on the chickpea & Pidgeon pea stew which was delicious! The owner was very sweet and friendly. Since she makes it as it is ordered be prepared to wait around 10-15 min unless you order ahead. There are several tables shared by the other places in the food court and it’s first come first serve seating. It wasn’t crowded at all. I’ll definitely be back!
Response from the owner
It was great to see you at Mint Porch and to serve up our delicious cuisine.So glad you enjoyed it.<br>Thank you for your visit. Come again soon
Listen!!! I do not write reviews or was paid to do this, but Chef Isra's hands is gifted. I was just passing through the neighborhood and made a random stop in front of the restaurant, not looking to purchase anything. But something told me to give Mint Porch a try, and when I say it's worth it, I really mean it!!! I'm not even vegan, but what I chose was very flavorful. I was tired from the day, but once I took one bite, I instantly woke up. Food nowadays does not taste the same or have a fresh taste, but this did for me. Must try!! I will definitely come again because Chef made me feel welcome and customized to my preferences. Very, very sweet. As a Black woman, Chef Isra makes me proud. Thank you, Chef!
