Looks like the space at 651 5th Avenue, between 18th and 19th Streets, is a natural fit for those hoping to serve the neighborhood little bites, as another small plates place has set up shop there.

The space, formerly home to [Sekt](/blog/business/5th-avenues-sekt-scheduled-to-open-october-10) — which [closed after less than a year](/blog/business/sparkling-wine-restaurant-sekt-closes-its-doors) — is now [Roosters Caribbean Tapas](https://www.facebook.com/pages/Roosters-Caribbean-Tapas/1500636413522908), which opened last month. They’re serving up a menu meant for sharing, featuring some traditional-sounding dishes, from stew chicken to jerk pork to “calypso” catfish, with prices ranging from $7-12 for each plate.

It’s open Tuesday-Friday 5-10pm and Saturday-Sunday 3-10pm, and we spotted [a Groupon for them that’s up right now](http://www.groupon.com/deals/roosters-caribbean-tapas?ref=bklyner.com) — $12 for $20 worth of tapas, $24 for $40 worth for four or more people, or $14 for $24 worth for takeout. Note that it’s cash only.

We haven’t had a chance to stop in yet, but the [photos on their Facebook page](https://www.facebook.com/pages/Roosters-Caribbean-Tapas/1500636413522908?sk=photos%5Fstream) make it look pretty tasty — has anyone stopped in yet? What did you think?
