Sweet Catch Brooklyn

Sweet Catch Brooklyn is an African American seafood spot in Prospect Lefferts Gardens that blends Southern soul with a splash of Caribbean flair. Founded by Ka-wana Jefferson, a Bronx native and proud HBCU grad, the restaurant is a tribute to African-American culinary traditions, with a menu rooted in family recipes and cultural heritage.

The space itself is sleek and colourful, designed to evoke the feeling of cracking crabs on the beach - laid-back, warm, and full of character. Whether you're popping in for brunch, dinner, or happy hour, the vibe is always welcoming and full of soul.

Jefferson’s mission goes beyond food: she’s created a platform that celebrates Black culture and entrepreneurship, hosting events like the 'Sweet Success' panel series to uplift minority business owners.

The restaurant has earned praise for its authentic dishes and heartfelt hospitality, with guests often sharing how the food reminds them of home. With a rotating Juneteenth-inspired menu and a growing brand that includes Lost Borough ice cream, Jefferson is making waves in Brooklyn’s culinary scene, one soulful bite at a time.
