    This was my first visit to Island Fusion Grill and I definitely plan on coming back again. There are so many unique menu items, and it’s ALL vegan so it’s very exciting. We really wanted to try the “papas rellenas” but they were sold out, so we went with our 2nd choice for an appetizer and got the “vonch fritters” which is their version of conch fritters. It was crisp and fried to perfection and full of flavor and had great texture in each and every bite, it was served a spicy dipping sauce which really brought all the flavor together. For entrees, it was hard to pick just 2 to try, they all were so intriguing. We did manage to narrow it down to just 2 (as we know we will definitely be back again to try the others) and we picked the “coconut curried jackfruit” and the “mushroom ropa veija”. Both entrees came with a choice of 2 Island inspired sides. We chose “rice and peas” (counts as one) mixed veggies and plantains (because the sweet is a nice contrast to the island spice). I was most excited to try the coconut curried jackfruit, and it might have been the driving force that brought me to be eating here now, and it did not disappoint! It was one of the most flavorful dishes I have eaten in quite some time, the coconut curry was so on point, and the jackfruit was textured so well, I am not sure I have ever had a dish quite like this. The mushroom ropa veija was not far behind, this dish featured shredded mushroom made with cumin and other island spice to create a dish that was authentic and unique in flavor and out of this world on taste. The sides were also really good, as mentioned we had the rice and peas which had a real authentic taste and the mixed veggies were steamed and spiced well, while the plantains were fried up crisp to perfection and full of flavor. We tried the “fusion pepper sips” our 1st choice was sold out so we tried the strawberry jalapeño and the scotch bonnet mango pineapple, they were both fresh and spicy and sweet, and full of flavor. There is not a bite of food or a sip of drink left when we were done, which is good and bad, while the food was incredible, we did feel that for the price, the portions could have been a bit more plentiful, especially being that this was a counter service restaurant that lacked the ambiance and neighborhood location that demands the prices we paid. Our bill for 2 people that included 2 drinks (non alcoholic) , 1 appetizer and 2 entrees was close to $70, which we just felt was a little high for the portions and the neighborhood and lack of ambiance. So that is only reason why I am not giving this restaurant 5 stars, and I am giving it 4 stars. The quality and taste of the food and unique menu items will definitely have me coming back to try again. We just might order a little differently next time. All in all, authentic, unique, fresh and flavorful vegan food, gets 2 vegan 👍 👍

    Vegan oxtail was what caught our attention. Reasonably pricey but a good outing still for vegans and friends/family that are vegan. I like that they actually serve prepared dishes and not store bought warmed food(beyond burger, sausages, etc) like many other vegan acclaimed restaurants. For this, 5 stars!

    I’m in love with the jackfruit coconut curry. It was my 1st time trying it and they immediately have a long time customer. Even the veggie patties were good with a golden flaky crust. Everything is made to order from scratch by this family owned business. This organic or vegan spot which u prefer is recommend to everyone in the world. As a new vegan myself, they teach me to appreciate what to eat

    Maybe we got them on an EXTREMELY off day. But it was just NOT it. My hubby and I paid $75 for microwaved food. They MICROWAVE the food, and charge fresh food prices. The voxtail was burnt and the burnt taste overwhelmed the entire dish. The ropa vieja plate was 80% white rice and the ropa vieja itself was literally just mushrooms and tomato sauce— it looked nothing like the google photos from other customers (check photo). We ended up exchanging the ropa vieja for the curry jackfruit which is when we heard them microwave the food to prepare it for us. Once the food was ready, I asked the lady if they microwave the food, to which she replied yes. I immediately felt sick after eating here and could never recommend this place to anyone. I honestly did not want to leave this review, but my partner encouraged me to do so after such a horrible experience. I really wanted to love it, but I will never be back.

    Unusual dishes like coconut cutlets, vegan conch fritters and jerk jackfruit really surprised me how delicious they tasted. I literally could switch to a full vegan lifestyle if I could eat this stuff every day. Go by for a visit and they cater also!

    Food was delicious, did not have a variety like mac and cheese to choose. The atmosphere is amazing and quiet.

  • 4/5 Criss M. 2 years ago on Google
    The food is good but the service is not it. On more than one occasion I called to order food. They let me know it would be 15-20 minutes. I come in 25 minutes after placing the order and food still isn't ready. I have to sit down for another 10 min before it's ready. There also has been times when I do call after their opening time which is 4pm that they don't answer the phone.

    Best plant based vegan good in South Florida, easily!! I’ve been vegan for 5 years. Even the plants and cutlery are plant based. The chef( owner) is amazing and very creative and intentional with her masterpieces! Eat to live!

    Vegan Jamaican Oxtail was very good. A bit salty but good. The rice n peas were amazing! Giving 4 stars due to this dishing being on pricey side $22. Overall great service n great food.

  • 5/5 Jose R. 3 years ago on Google
    This is a hidden gem. Located inside a humble strip mall you will find the best vegan Caribbean home cooking stateside. You can't go wrong with the Voxtails if you like a savory "meaty" dish. The coconut curried jackfruit was the perfect combo of savory and sweet. The Vonch fritters were amazing and the cowboy caviar was fresh and tasty. We drove to Davie from Miami because we were looking for something different and we were not disappointed. Sooo good. You can taste the love in every bite.

  • 5/5 LaVenia R. 3 years ago on Google
    The cook and Jason made me feel at home. The food was great! The cook is very creative. The coconut jackfruit was soo good and coconut cutlets you never think that coconut cutlet made out of coconut meat. I am vegan and everything is vegan.

  • 5/5 courtney k. 2 years ago on Google
    One of my favorite restaurants for Caribbean vegan fusion food. Voxtails are one of my families favorites. Customer service is amazing. Food can be a little pricey but, it's worth it for the quality, flavor and freshness. The spicy lemonades are a favorite of mine too. You won't be disappointed.

    My experience at this restaurant was amazing. The vegan food options are amazing and the flavors and quality of the food is amazing. The chefs and owners are amazing. The vegan conch fritters are amazing and the beans over white rice was amazingg with the most delicious culantro Trini style pepper sauce. So grateful for the experience, I love to support local businesses like this. You can tell they love what they do. I will definitely be back!!

    Foods good when they actually have food. Advice to management don’t open up business until you’re ready and have food available.
