Their Afrobeat night is TRASH! A waste of money, DJ Tunes doesn't even show up, the MC won't shut up and let you hear the music, and to add insult to injury they barely play any afrobeats. And all this after they make you pay steep cover for "Afrobeats night". Such a rip off. Do not go here.

This review is solely based on my experience visiting Cafe Erzulie after hours for cocktails and music. I would love to visit the venue again during the day to check out the cafe-- I've heard amazing reviews. The concept for the space is dope! The venue is a cafe, local flower shop, event space/ bar in the evening.
I went on a Friday night and the DJ was dope, while the crowd was a little on the younger side ( mid to late twenties)my friends and I had a great time. The Dj was dope and the cocktails were good. I don't recall the name of the drink we ordered but it was made with homemade sorrel.
I would recommend Cafe Erzulie for a night out with friends. Grab a great cocktail and chill! Thank me later.

DO NOT COME TO TICKETED EVENTS!!! I wish I could give them more stars but this is the second time they played people who bought tickets for an event. I paid for their 5th anniversary event at (what used to be) output/74 Whythe and couldn’t get in because they greedily oversold tickets and it was at max capacity. No chance of being a refund because their accountability and customer service is horrible. You were warned…
UPDATE, 2/28/22: Thanks for the response, but I don't see a way to request a refund via eventbrite when the ticket says non-refundable.

I recently attended Cafe Erzulie for their Afrobeat and Dancehall event! I've been here before for brunch a few years ago, but this was my first time at night. I love the space, the outdoor area. I will however say that the event itself seems to be very popular! The area where the DJ booth is located made the space seem very crowded for the entrance to the outdoor area, and if you don't mind waiting in line for the bar, the music and crowd could be a bit much. It's a great place for social gathering, make sure to have your vax card in had. This would definitely be a place to go to during the summer.

Usually love the food here but the lamb shank with risotto is not it. Drenched in sauce, can hardly taste the lamb or the truffle + the salt was unbearable. Completely inedible. I just played around with my dish until the waiter came around to collect.

This Cafe, venue is sort of hidden but its really cool. It was a one year anniversary for a tech startup @FloreoLabs and the crowd was fun and smart into tech and culture.

Nice little spot for breakfast or lunch. Almost like a speakeasy joint hidden by a flower shop located in Brooklyn off the J train. Very limited selection on the menu but that's what makes it unique. Outdoor seating is big and nice. Their pork breakfast sandwich is very light and tasty as well as the griot pork sandwich.

Cafe Erzulie is a great Hatian cafe and restaurant hidden behind a flower store. Fantastic place to work for hours with free WiFi and plenty of seats. Some great unique options for breakfast/brunch food. Only 6 seats on the bench have outlets - not that easy to get to either so don’t count on having access to one. They have a beautiful backyard as well which is large and very sunny, full of trees and another 15 seats. Overall a quiet spot to frequent that’s good to work, grab coffee and some small food. Love this place!

Devocion coffee beans and careful attention to brewing makes this coffee worth stopping by time and time again. The space is wonderful with plants up front, tiled cafe and then outside sunlight drenched patio. People do yoga on some days and they turn the AC off. The hip young staff will sometimes simply forget your order and act like nothing is wrong when you go up and ask about it. Annoying but that’s what you get with hip places like this.

Great service, good (but not great) coffee, they were closing early for an event, so I didn't have time to get anything else. The back patio looks beautiful and the décor is nice, although it feels like they could have gone an extra step to make the space truly something (as is it feels a little rushed)
