Save your money, go elsewhere! I actually considered writing a letter to the owner, But why? If he doesn't care why should I? Worse. Brunch. Ever. We just tossed $56 out the window! I wish to God I could get a refund. They offered me more food as a consultation- I don't want more food I want my money back! The good Wings were really good and the cornbread was good! The bad Is a long story that I don't want to type and I won't make you read. Bottom line... jerk sandwich, should have had brioche ended up wonder white bread . Wanna know why? they were out of it! My husband said that it wasn't that good either. My omelet was DRY! Incredibly over cooked and missing 86% of the listed ingredients! - wanna know why? They were out of it! We waited more than an hour for our main dish! In that time someone who cared, could have casually strolled to shop-rite and purchased a weeks worth of the missing ingredients! They presented this bad food with out explanation No one communicated until after I asked... all someone had to do was say "hey lady we're out of XYZ but we have a ABC" and I would've totally ordered something else! As the day progressed, I got more and more upset. We went over to gateway to do grocery shopping, we were going to grab a burger at smashBurger; but I saw a sign and I said you know what lets go over here and invest in and support this black owned business because, I want to see us shine and flourish!! But I get there and I am disappointed beyond belief. Beyond belief! FUSION EAST- this was the worse meal. I've had. in New York. since I've lived here. ( and I've been here for a WHILE) Tip for the bar: A Mimosa is a cocktail composed of equal parts champagne and chilled citrus fruit juice, usually orange juice unless otherwise specified. Ingredients: 2 1/2 oz (1 part) Orange juice, 2 1/2 oz (1 part) Champagne A mimosa is NOT juice and a splash of champagne Note to owner: People work hard for their money, when they trust you enough to come and sit in your establishment and spend their hard earned money; you and your staff should have enough consideration for these hard-working people to deliver what you promise. You have wasting this opportunity, why start something if you're not going to strive to do it perfectly, why? It's a waste of everybody's time energy and money! read more

I want to start this off by saying this is a brand new establishment. They opened yesterday. Don't be so hard on them when it comes to speedy service. It WILL improve. I live only a 5 minute walk from this place. I wanted to support the neighborhoods newest business. Decided to go and grab some take out but ended up staying instead. I sat at the bar. The place is super clean. Lights are dimmed comfortably and the music is played at a respectable volume. I was helped by Khadijah. She was the super sweet bartender. She was extremely professional, very personable and joyously jubilant. She kept me informed of my order from the time I placed it and even who was going to be bringing it to me at the bar. Khadijah may just be the best bartender in all of East New York. She was a rockstar! I ordered a jerk chicken sandwich with a side of Mac & Cheese. Both were pretty damn good. The service overall was really good. My meal was really good. Everyone in there has such a nice attitude and really excited about this new restaurant. It's an air that's inviting. If this level of friendliness and professionalism continues and grows, this may be the best carribean/soul food restaurant to dine at in Brooklyn. I will most certainly return! Great job guys! Oh, keep in mind... This is a residential area and parking will be a bit scarce. You'd find good parking in Gateway or on Flatlands and walk over. read more

The way I stumbled on this place was rather funny. I came to pick up my friend from work and she wanted to go the Dallas BBQ's. Being that I hate that place with a passion I told her go on yelp and see if there's any place in the area we can try and BAM!!! Fusion East popped up. We decided to give it a try and man was I glad that we did. I enjoyed this place a lot. The food was excellent. I had fried chicken with Mac and cheese & sweet plantain. She had the jerk wings and salmon cakes. Everything was good especially the salmon cake. The mojito hit the spot as well. The service was good. I liked the vibe of this place. All in all I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Well the only good thing I use to have to say is the food is good. Other than that the service is very poor. First off in these days of Covid-19 this place is entirely too small to hold all the people they squeeze in & put on top of each other. The music is always loud to the point of getting a headache. Especially if you had a drink or two,forget about it. Make sure you have some tylenol with you. It takes forever to place an order & about 2 more years before your drinks show up. By the time my food came it was cold & I had no utensils to eat with. Which took an extra 20 mins to receive. By that point I had to send my food back to be reheated. The food is usually good but the oxtails were tough & not tender as they should be. The shrimp rasta pasta was bland. For the price,poor service & headache I have to give up on this place. I will not be returning but I wish them much success. read more

Great to have a spot like this in the East NY Community! I always order the oxtail with rice and peas and it's a decent portion. Personally, I am not a fan of their happy hour menu but I do enjoy dinner here. Lastly, they play reggae, soca, etc. & the vibe is A1. read more

I've been a patron of Fusion East twice. One time was a weekend for brunch. Wasn't rally found of what I ordered. I ordered a salad...but they didn't have most of the ingredients needed. Instead of stating this I had to keep asking for the missing ingredients to only be told they were out. My mom ordered the pork chops which were dried out. They replaced her meal free of charge and the replacement was just ok. I had wings and codfish fritters as appetizers. Wings were yuck and fritters were good. I then went again one Friday for happy hour. The drinks were good! Will definitely come back just for drinks lol. Yet again I ordered wings and codfish fritters. The wings were good this time, however the fritters were hard. Your meal really does depend on the cook that day. Each time I went the service was impeccable...can't speak for all servers as it was the same person each time lol. read more

I have been to Fusion East once before for happy hour, the place was clean but it was ok in the service was decent. we decided to try it for brunch we were able to walk there which is really nice to have a nice neighborhood eatery. The service was excellent. I believe if memory serves me correctly that our servers named was Latoya. She was attentive and very pleasant. The restaurant & facilities are super clean which I appreciate. The unlimited mimosas were an excellent touch, I have a nice buzz going by the time we left there. I had the chicken and waffles it was good the chicken was crispy and flavorful, the waffles were soft but the sauce that came with them... Amazing . I don't exactly know what it was but it was like a light brown color and kind of like a caramel color. We also ordered shrimp and grits and that was amazing and we ordered a side of corn bread muffins which were nice and sweet and fluffy. read more

Came here on a Sunday. They do have a fixed brunch menu so you can't order from the regular menu but you do get unlimited mimosas for as long as you can take them, unlike the 2 hour limit a lot of places have, or maybe I was there on a slow day? Either way, the portion sizes are good. You get enough to fill you. The staff was nice on this day. It seemed like a good place to hang out, get a drink, watch the game, etc. My order came out on time but wanted to try the cornbread, which we were told would be ready, then later on was told the chefs made it in an entire batch so it wouldn't be ready until much later so we just had to let that go. Everything else was good. Jerk wings were good. Can't complain about the ackee and saltfish either. If I'm in the area, I'll probably be back. read more

I ordered the fusion sampler with a side of Mac and cheese; the sampler was so good but my friend and I didn't care for the Mac and cheese.

So I'll start by saying that I'm a loyal customer to fusion east. I LOVE THIS PLACE! They make really good drinks and I've never had a problem with the bartenders. They are very patient and very sweet. But the food is another story. I'm not really a fan. If you r drunk and just need something to put n your belly fine. But if you're looking for quality dont bother. EVERTIME I eat here the food is cold like it's been sitting out and gets a tad bit of heat to appease the customer. But it's bad. The mac and cheese is really good. Everytime I had it its been cold so I can imagine what it would taste like fresh out the oven.. I'm not gonna lie and say that I will never come here again bc that would b a lie. I love it here. Cold food and all. Just mentally prepare yourself for good food but cold food and good service. read more

I came here after having a really horrific hair salon experience and this place brightened up my day . It's a chill spot . Great vibe , good music, awesome Caribbean food that's actually spicy and not sweet with sugar . 3 Long Island ice teas later and an amazing boneless curry chicken dish I'm so comfortable. I recommend. It's really a clean amazing spot . Friendly staff that pays attention to you . They don't just give you a menu and vanish forever. Very dope place read more

FOOD IS DELICIOUS. Happy hour is great offering $5 rum punch, margaritas, wine, etc. Friday night , they had a bangingggc DJ. One of the best DJs I've heard in years! They would be a 10 out of 10 if they had hookah, only because I am a fan of hookah when I am drinking. Other than that, great place. read more

First & last time visiting this restaurant. Wait staff was slow, no water or utensils on the table of 8. Not a fan of rap or trap music, especially with the cursing & use of the "n" word in the music especially with children in the restaurant. Tvs was locked on Fox channel, why? Ordered sorrel moijito, disappointed & exchanged it for a Shandy instead. Ordered oxtails dinner, rice & peas was dry & my husband's shrimp roti, the skin was dry & shrimp was salty. Different wait staff had to help with our table. I received my food 1/2 way thru my counterparts dinner (party of 8). Not a good impression, also parking was a nightmare. read more

This is my third time going to this spot. I really wanted to like this place but just like the first time it smells like mop water as soon as you walk in. I requested a table in the back where the smell wasn't that bad. I ordered the chicken and waffles and the waffles were stale. The chicken was bloody inside as you can see in the photo. They were nice enough to bring me fresh waffles. My friend ordered a burger. She said "If you're looking for an Island Burger, this is not it. If you're looking for a five guys burger, this is not it. If you're looking for a single patty Burger from your family cookout, then sure. It's a good burger, but definitely not something I would come into a restaurant for." However the cod fish fritter was actually good. read more

I went here last night for dinner.Let's just say the reason I am giving this place a 3 is because the ambiance was great.This place has a dj which helped my review as well.Our waiter Dwayne was awesome very attentive,very patient and moved quickly to accommodate our needs.Kudos to Dwayne.The staff behind the bar were very slow and I dont know why because when we first was seated the place was not packed.I felt like the pre fixe menu was an awesome deal for our party of 12 without drinks of course included.I had the jerk wings and they were spicy but soggy.Thats a no for me soggy jerk wings barbecue wings maybe but not jerk. Entree was the mac and cheese fried chicken with collard greens.Omg I was ready to tear the food apart but it was an epic fail.The food is not terrible it's just ok.I will stick with the drinks because I ordered a blue moon but they had no orangebut wte but everyone said they like their stew chicken, chicken and waffles and rum punch.Which confuses me if the Caribbean food is good then maybe they should stick with Carribean and take out the American ‍‍Ijs read more

So the first time I went here it was really horrible. I only gave it 4 stars because my experience the first time being there was karaoke night and it was a bit too loud and obnoxious. It was definitely humorous, but became slightly annoying after a while.However, they have extremely good food. If you wanna laugh and possibly be annoyed then go on karaoke night. If you want to enjoy food and hear yourself while you're trying to speak then go on any other night besides karaoke night and try everything they have. Because their food is absolutely great there jerk chicken literally mouth watering. I will definitely return there just won't go there on a day they're doing karaoke. Hopefully this review will steer you in the right direction as to what night is better for you to go. If I were you I would call ahead. read more

Went here with my coworker to celebrate our birthdays. We both had the escovitch fish with rice and peas. The fish was good but we both thought the escovitch sauce was way too vinegary and I'm Jamaican and this is something I eat and make often. The rice and peas was good, but it was a little dry. We asked our server for some gravy which he happily provided for us. The gravy was exactly what it needed to make the rice absolutely delicious! The drinks were good and strong! And service was great. We also had the codfish fritters for appetizers which was absolutely delicious. We plan on coming back again to try different menu options since it's close to work. read more

This was by far the WORST Caribbean "fusion" restaurant i ever dined at; do not be fooled by the ambiance. The service was subpar and the food was terrible. My friend ordered the pasta which was in a creamed curry sauce . Creamed curry though... I ordered the jerk salmon which was devoid of jerk but FULL OF PEPPER. The broccoli was over peppered. The pepper was so overwhelming that my mouth was on fire. I'm so i know pepper and this was beyond edible. When the manager came to the table he dismissed my feedback and said, "Well it is jerk." The only jerk was his behind. He did nothing to remedy the situation and showed himself to be an asinine self-interest proprietor. I paid my bill without question because i know I'm the end he will have more to lose. You never know who's visiting your establishment. I WILL NEVER VISIT AGAIN NOR WILL I EVER RECOMMEND THIS FARSE FUSION TO ANYONE. What a poor representation of Caribbean cuisine and culture. it really deserved NO read more

$960.12 WASTED!!! WAITED OVER 2 HOURS FOR FOOD!!! Had a ladies event with Evangelist and Ministers, service was horrible. The seating party was on time, everyone took their seats; 40 minutes of being seated no one came over to ask if anyone would like anything to drink. One of the guest asked about 4 times for water, she came over with a bottle of water. I had to find the Assisting Manager and ask her can she give my guest some water, because it was warm inside the place. She gave 4 people at the table water out of 25 guest. The rest of the guest asked me if they can have water, she told me to give her a second (she never came back with the water) she was serving drinks at the bar. I had to ask a waiter, and he came right back with the water. There were only two of them working in the entire restaurant (this is event was planned well over 3 weeks) The tables weren't cleaned off, me and my guest had to move dishes off the table, until the waiter seen exactly what we were doing then he proceeded to move some. He stopped what he was doing because he had to attend other customers that were coming into the restaurant. The event was suppose to be for 2 hours but the food didn't arrive until 4:15 pm and the event started at 1:30 pm, some people didn't even get an opportunity to eat because they had a ride that was picking them up at a specific time, so they had to leave. Food had to be taken back to the kitchen, the chicken was hard and not seasoned the waffles were cold. While all of this is going on the table was still messy and no one checked on my guest! Classic moment...the assisting manager asked for a slice a cake and said if I didn't give it to her she was going to cry (*LIKE REALLY) I have no problem giving anyone anything, but allow me to offer it to you. I believe the waiter name was Ramaine ( I'm probably spelling the name wrong) he did what he could. read more

We went on Valentine's Day and I know it's a busy day so I tried not to be too critical. They did not have the reservation that I set up two weeks prior, but they sat us immediately anyways. It took over 30 minutes for a waiter to come to us and he explained the wait was due to a problem with frozen drinks. I didn't understand what that had to do with someone's ability to come take my order but ok. We order two appetizers and two entrees. After another long wait our entrees came but we never received our appetizers. We told the man who brought it (he was a different waiter) and he said it's coming soon. We were so hungry that we started eating our entrees while waiting for the appetizers. We had to hail down our waiter to let him know we never got our appetizers and he was surprised because he said it was sent out already. Anyways, as we were finishing our entrees he comes back and said the appetizers were coming out and he'd box it up for us. Regardless, the food was delicious and the music set the vibe. I'd love to go back because the food was great and I truly feel there were so much problems because it was a busy day. read more

An experience on another level. Things started to go downhill really fast when the waitress said she had to check to see if they had potatoes to serve with the eggs, it turns out that because there was no potatoes you couldn't get the egg Then the next item was an omelette, which she had to check again with the chef to see if it was possible to get one, the response she came back with was that the Chef said he had a catering event and he was NOT making any omlettes. I had to ask her to repeat because I thought I misheard what she said, and couldn't believe the chef WAS NOT making the omelet. We finally decided on Calamari, Salad and Wings, once again she had to check to see if there was any Calamari. At that point I was over it, and was ready to leave, but she came back and said they had Calamari. Took us a while to get the food, and our drinks, the food came before the drinks; we had to actually ask for the drinks The end game was that we noticed the place was quickly filling up after a while, and we thought it was the after church patronage, but came to find out they had an event for a funeral repast, but never closed the venue or alerted the patrons who were dining there, and it just became one total mess with people looking for seats, and one waitress trying to handle everything. As we got up to leave, one guy who was standing near our table couldn't even wait until we fully vacate the seats before he just squeezed himself into one of the seat, not even a simple excuse me. We were still literally standing by the table putting on our coats. Trying to get out of the venue was like walking an obstacle course with people standing around greeting each other, some pushing they way through rudely. No coordination for the event, total chaos. Nice decor, but yeah...Nope won't be backwon't recommend to friends. This place needs someone to manage it efficiently, and get a new chef.‍‍ read more

I've been meaning to come check this place out for a while, but I'm sure I won't be back. I came with my mother and cousin. When we walked in we were greeted by a nice gentleman and immediately after we sat, our waitress greeted us. We decided to get the sampler which included jerk wings, coconut shrimp, cod fish fritters and spring rolls. The waitress told us they have no more cod fish fritters (we got jerk shrimp instead) and I asked for grilled shrimp instead of coconut shrimp (but she brought out fried shrimp instead). Both shrimps were good but very salty. The wings were also good, but a tad too soggy for my taste. BUT the spring rolls! Ugh they were rotten!! Literally rancid. I spit it out immediately and told our waitress. she apologized and gave us more jerk shrimp (did not help, I was still very upset). For my entree, although now very nervous, I had the jerk salmon. The salmon tasted like it had freezer burn and I wouldn't be surprised if it was also spoiled. It left a really bad after taste in my mouth to the point where I had to rinse my mouth out with mouth wash when I got home. I will never be back. Coming from someone who has worked in restaurants. DATING of food is extremely important and the food that we were served was completely unacceptable. Someone call a health inspector! read more

WARNING, THEY'RE THEIVES AND THEY KEEP YOU CARD INFO !!! We went there for a holiday party where a prefix menu was selected. I asked the owner how can a large bill be taken care of and he said that it could be split 3-4 ways. I guess once they saw the amount of people that was attending they decided to tell us that there wasn't one selected for us. They did two separate receipts, one for food another for drinks. The bill was paid in cash and cards. They have repeatedly charged several people cards hundreds of dollars days later after we tried to correct several errors made by the hostess whom, pocketed some of the cash that was for the bill which included the 20% gratuity. read more

If you wanna waste 2 hours of your day waiting for some food that doesn't taste great - feel free to check this place out. We waited and waited... And waited for someone to take our order (they have one guy waiting all the tables at the restaurant). 30 min later our order was placed and we waited. 2 hours after that the waiter came to us to inform us they didn't have the ingredients for one of the dishes. (Sounds crazy, but I swear it's absolutely true.) Ha This place is a joke. We walked out. read more

Honestly, Fusion left much to be desired. I went on a Tuesday night which is apparently the night they have a live band. The band was great but extremely loud for such a small space, we could hardly have a conversation over the band playing. The food was ok. I had the fish and chips and my friend had the chicken soup and fritters. Everything was lackluster, not a lot of flavor. Additionally, the restaurant was extremely cold, all the customers had on their jackets. When we asked for the heat to be turned up, we were told that it was cold because the windows are glass. If that is the case, the owner should consider changing the windows because it was just as cold inside as it was outside. Everyone in my group was shivering, even with jackets on. I gave two stars because the drinks are good and the customer service was ok. Probably won't eat here again read more

I am not one to leave reviews but for this I will. I typically used to enjoy this restaurant but WILL NOT BE RETURNING after this past event. After leaving this restaurant and paying my $25 happy hour bill, I was later alerted by the fraud department of my bank stating that $1600 worth of charges were being made on my card from a place I had never been. Fusion was the only place I had been that entire day. What happened between the time the waitress named Virginia took the bill and used it at the register, I have no clue. I was so annoyed and went back the next day to speak with manager Ali who was absolutely no help at all. He said there is nothing they can do but to call the bank. Obviously. read more
