While in Brooklyn visiting my family, I was walking around Nostrand and ran into Ital Fusion. As soon as I saw the name Ital I just knew it was going to be good . It's a vegetarian restaurant with so many yummy options it's so hard to choose. The first time I went I had some spinach rice, callaloo, pumpkin, & soy chunks. Everything was so good. The second time I went I had vegetable fried rice, callaloo, cabbage & kale with a lentil patty. The lentil patty was flaky, crusty goodness. I wish I could bring this place back to AZ with me because we really need some real West Indian restaurants there Since it's so close to the house I'm probably going to just eat here every day until I leave read more

Food was delicious. The restaurant came highly recommended and I was not disappointed. I could eat here every day! Simply vegan! All vegan food! Customer service was nice and polite. Price was nice and portion was good and filling. I'll be back. It's a takeout spot and no sitting are From small to large and pricing depends on how many sides you add to the plate, from 3 to 5 to 7. I had the eggplant, curry Chana, pumpkin, rice and peas and collard greens. All well cooked and well seasoned! Depending on what you want to eat, I recommend everything I just listed and they had more sides, from okra to spinach rice and more. Visit to find out and give them a trial. Brooklyn has great spots! I plan to return! read more

Oh Man. Well... for a person like me, a place like this is a nightmare. I absolutely HATE food piled on top of each other. I dont like certain foods touching. Yes, I am that girl. 5 items for $12 and it all began in a round aluminum take out container (I dont think they got the memo). I choose Spinach Rice, spinach, curry chick peas and double tofu chiken. The guy did a great job not piling the food on top of each other which was a relief (although the Spinach did touch the rice it was okay lol). Everything and I mean everything tasted excellent. Everything was great! I added their house made pepper sauce at the end and it gave it a perfect punch. I peeked at the Pattie station and Jerk Plantain Patty?? I must return. Price point for the patties were $4, which I felt was a bit pricey but its a Jerk Plantain patty..... read more

Ital Fusion - Amazingness. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - East Flatbush, New York

Affordable vegetarian Food that tastes good. They have many options and the vegetarian patties are tasty.

This is how they charge: $5 for 3 sides, $12 for 5 and $15 for 7. Fish, mac and cheese pay separately. Im not too good remembering prices, anyhow after $12 for 5 sides I asked for a slide of salmon fish and mac cheese. Total is $24 They accept credit card and apple pay. Personally i think its a bit overprice in this neighborhood. But food taste good read more

Delicious fresh carribean style veggies. I had okra and pumpkin and other stuff and it was so good. The person preparing my plate added a piece of fish and still gave me a side of cheesy potatoes! I will be back. If you are looking for fresh veggie/vegetarian meal in east flatbush, i would recommend this spot. read more

I am not sure how long this place has been around but I am shocked I have just discovered it. I literally went there the next day after I found out about it. Re-routed my whole commute to come here and try the food. The setup is similar to other caribbean places where you walk in and there is a hot bar and you select your options. I got the $10 plate which gives you 5 options. I got spinach rice, a chickpea thingy, a curried potatoes, a eggplant thingy, and a beets thingy $10 And side of fish for additional price. It was a lot of food which took me 3 installments to finish. Everything was very tasty and I def will recommend and return. read more

I've been procrastinating for a while.... I finally gave this place a (2nd) try. A couple years back I got a meal from here, it contained lentils I think but I don't remember much else. Last night I decided to stop in and grab dinner, being that it's on my way home. From the street you can see people sitting in the window, HAPPILY handling the food just purchased and as you enter the establishment you can smell why. This place smells like home cooked food. I haven't eaten (what I consider) healthy in too long so I had to take my time with the dinner selection. I went with the rice and peas (spinach rice also available), red beans, kale, and blue snapper. Lets put this in the open. I am a born and raised (til age 14) Trinbagonian and I have grown up eating fish/veggies/ground provision/etc but it has been way too long since I got my hands on fish that taste this good. I mean, even the carrots slices that accompanied the fish were amazing. For those who enjoy currant rolls, they have that available near the register. Funny how it's the lil things that really takes an experience from great to amazing. I'm huge on cleanliness and great service, especially when food is involved. The forks provided are in a plastic packaging.... small to you but that's a big deal to me. The staff was knowledgeable and gave advice to people who couldn't decide... small to you but huge deal to me. The place was spotless and I saw someone in the back keeping it that way.... again, might be small to you but that was/is huge to me. Atmosphere: 5/5 (very Caribbean feel) Price: 4/5 (The price caught me off guard but good food cost a lil more) Food: 5/5 (delicious, hot, and FULL of flavor) Cash and credit accepted, though there is a card minimum. read more

This place is really good I got hooked on eating from here because of my coworker so I finally decided to get my own meal one day. Think vegan/ vegetarian food but with a Trini twist on it. I usually eat the beets callaloo, pumpkin spinach and sometimes soy chunks so I switched it up and got the macaroni pie and soy chunks. I had the soy chunks before and I believe it was bbq this time I got stewed. I'm not a big fan of stewed anything but if you are the flavor is definitely on point. What I like about here is everything is seasoned soo good you won't even remember your not eating meat or missing it. I would definitely recommend! read more

Ital Fusion - a container of food on a table - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - East Flatbush, New York

Been coming to this spot for years. Great vegan options. Food always fresh and service consistently pleasant

Just had the best meal in months from here . Never knew eating vegan/vegetarian was this good . Easily the best vegetarian spot I've ever been to . This place is very generous with their portions . You get to choose 5,7 or 9 options . 5 option container would run you ten dollars . I just had the fake duck aka bean curd , Mac and cheese , callaloo , red beans , spinach rice and mixed veggies . Everything was 10/10 so no sense in getting into minute details. Planning my second trip as I wrap up this concise review actually . read more

Ital Fusion - Tastes better than it looks ! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - East Flatbush, New York

Holy soy! Wow! Absolutely Floored. Floored. Yelp is tough because you tend to review places you either really love or really hate so, I feel like I tend to review places I really love but it has been a long time since I've found a place that I love so much, I feel as though all my five star reviews need to go down a star because Ital Fusion has set the bar. Shredded Soy, Some other kind of Soy, Some other kind of sweeter Soy (I think), Noodles, Rice, Okra, Chickpea and Kale. All on a to go tray that was almost impossible to carry home (on my bicycle) because of how heavy it was. I got home and the food just kept reappearing out of nowhere. I mean - I would eat enough rice that a bit more chickpea would pop up from underneath. When I got through enough of the noodles, all of a sudden some kale came out of nowhere. I also mentioned I rode home on my bicycle, full kit (which means skin tight spandex from head to toe) and neon green. And click clack clipless shoes. So that is quite the sight to witness! So much so that when I stopped by Ital Fusion last week on my typical Wednesday night cycling kit and was sad that they were closed =[, I was greeted this week with a "sorry you couldn't make it in time last week" How awesome is that! It is tough to find a place in NYC in which the people running the shop remember you, let alone if you only go there once a week. Chapeau to you my friend! Peace and Love. read more

PEACE! Man oh man I don't even know where to start! So I'm with a friend of mine right (Kashif again) and he decides to make a stop for food before dropping me home. I'm all frustrated that I can't just go straight home. He pulls up to Ital Fusion and the title of the restaurant immediately caught my attention. If you're not familiar, ital is a term that refers to the vegan diet of Rastafarians although some choose to also consume fish. I'm thinking, "hey, as much as you're into healthy eating, why not walk in!?". Best advice I've ever given myself haha. Upon entry I'm immediately greeted by a positive and warm energy from the gentleman behind the glass. Upon gazing through the glass I notice the umpteen varieties of food and vegetables that were present. I mean you name it from kale to black eyed peas, to soy chunks, mixed steam vegetables and so on! I tell him that I'm interested in the glazed looking salmon in the window and that it's my first time. He gave me one look and says, "well, then I have to take care of'ya!". Almost by default it's as if I told him I was a long lost brother or something. He went straight to work in giving me a pretty hefty plate filled with an assortment of heaven topped off with the fish and gave me a "good price". It didn't hurt that he had a cool name like Royalty as well! While being served, another brotha by the name of Sean comes out who introduces himself as the Chef and I thought, "man, does this place have great energy!" Sean smiling with a sense of gratification that a new customer walks in, began to have a brief chat with me about the importance of healthy eating. He then concisely ran down a list of cool everyday dishes that he's managed to make just as tasty if not more delicious by substituting certain ingredients with healthier alternatives. It was a quick lesson and it also didn't hurt that he gave me a sample or two to try as well while Executive Chef Brian Lawrence was making a peanut concoction (man was it good!!!) Upon digging my fork into my plate I knew I was doing my body a favor! The flavors and the satiating, but not sluggish feeling I felt was unbelievable! I'm having a delicious meal all the while it being healthy, totally dispelling the myth that healthy eating compromises flavor! These guys here have done it and done it well! I was ecstatic to find out that they also have another location! I'll tell you one thing! This experience has hands down won me over as a new customer! read more

Ital Fusion - Heavenly medley! This here is black eyed peas, mixed vegetables, soy chunks, topped with teriyaki salmon! YUM!! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - East Flatbush, New York

I have been a vegetarian for the past year and it can be difficult to find a food place on a Friday night after a long day at work. Look no further than ITAL FUSION! Beyond healthy, delicious food options. The food is well prepared and keeps you full not to where you are bloated but satisfied. My go to spot in Flatbush, hands down! read more

i stepped in to support this local spot, especially as they're advertised as being quite veggie friendly. It's small and has a simple layout with a counter and high bar stools right at the front so that about 4 people can dine-in if they so choose. i must say that the food stays true to Caribbean authenticity. The flavor in my rice and peas + callaloo was good, and it was nice to be able to add their pepper sauce to it. They have a great and typical selection of Caribbean beverages to add to your meal, and the staff is friendly without being pushy. The next time i'm craving some well-seasoned and comforting Ital food, i'll be sure to stop in. read more

I've eaten here quite a few times already and keep forgetting to take a picture of my plate so I can yelp about it...because it's that damn good. Since transferring to Brooklyn College, I have been underwhelmed by the food options around me. For a vegan and a nutrition major, this area can be a food desert. Ital Fusion is the oasis. The kale patties leave me speechless. And what is in that perfectly fluffy bulgar, man, angel tears? My other go-to's are okra and their ginger soy protein if they have it. Just one bite may change ya life. For some reason, when people think "vegan", they think of boiled broccoli, 15 dollar salads, 10 dollar juices, and gentrification. I am not saying that those things don't exist, but not here. This is fusion of flavor, culture and health. Fuel for your cells and your soul. What you won't find here is dried out rice or overcooked veggies. Everything stays consistently fresh no matter what time you stroll in. I recommend getting one grain (to soak up the delicious flavours), one protein, and the rest veggies. Then thank Jah and dig in. Prices here are more than fair and they always hook it up. Also, I don't know what sorcery goes into those containers but the food seems to multiply while you are eating it. (I'm not mad about it.) Now, how can I say this so my generation will understand? Ital Fusion is deadass like the 100 emoji, IRL. Translation: it's the real deal. read more

This place needs like 1,000 more location food is just so bomb and fresh. I had lomein, spinach, some types of soy and curry chickpea (which I hate btw) but I been trying this plant based lifestyle so I'm like why not give it a try it was sooooooooooo good omg my mouth is watering rn just talking about it. The food just smells so good I was feening to eat that's kinda why I don't have a pic to post with this review. I also bought their fresh grapefruit juice It was delicious. ital fusion is bomb read more

The food is soo tasty and flavorful. It difficult to find healthy food around the junction especially with all the fast food options. I always get the soy chunks and the green rice (spinach rice). I usually get a medium which allows you 5 options for 10 bucks. The small isn't worth it in my opinion because the container is tiny, you do get 3 options though. The place also has a few fish options. The place is a bit expensive on a daily basis but it a nice treat when you want something healthy but delicious. read more

Healthy and Fresh! The lo mein, bbq soy meat, lentils, chickpeas, eggplants, kale, zucchini etc. Everything I repeat Everything is cooked perfectly. Nothing is soggy, its all cooked perfect where the veggies are crisp! I will be returning and am grateful to have found this gem! 5 choices for $10.00 7 choices for $13.00. Worth the money! read more

If you're looking for freshly made, delicious food AND top of the line customer service......look no further! Shawn is very personable and charming. It's always nice to go to a place in which they appreciate your business. I got the salt fish and ackee. Not only was it delicious, but the portion was plentiful. They scoop the ackee and salt fish separately so you are able to see exactly what you're getting. I will definitely patronize this place again. read more

Huge variety of food! Prices are more than fair. Everything is tasty. I stop here whenever I'm in Brooklyn. I highly recommend this place.

I'm not Vegetarian or Vegan and I really loved this place! Went there kind of late so they were out of a couple of things. The staff was welcoming and attentive. Parking is not as easy in the area but worth the trip. I had fish, rice and peas, okra, callaloo, and chick peas. All this food and didn't feel overstuffed. Healthy and affordable food. read more

Just bought lunch here for the first time. I had the chickpeas, tofu, kale, eggplant, and a mango sea moss beverage. The meal had all the delicious Caribbean herbs and spices. Tasty! My only regret was not ordering a larger serving. read more

I'm new with Ital food, but it doesn't take a newbie to appreciate how good the food here is. The soy chicken is ah-mah-zing! I can't recall what else I had on my plate but for a large order $13 I was able to sample a decent amount of food, all of which were scrumptious and full of flavor. It's a small restaurant, not good for large groups, better for a quick bite or takeout. I absolutely LOVE the food here, and even after stuffing my face I still don't feel guilty about eating so much. read more

This place has an great variety for vegan, Vegetarians and pescatarians. I had the "chicken" patty which was pricey $4 but was so worth it! They had split pea, lentil, "beef" fish parties, I want to try all! Then I had the lasagna, which was filled with collard greens, loved it! Will definitely be coming back for sure read more

this place is straight flames bröther!! got a split bean pattie and this plate all for $16 read more

Ital Fusion - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - East Flatbush, New York

As a BK College student, this is one of the best local options. I was searchin' for a consistent place to get healthy, affordable food, because there aren't many options around, but this place is great for vegetarians. I love the veggie lasgna, all the greens, the grains they have are great and the food is not crazy oily. There are several options and they have plate deals that are super affordable, it's 3 items for $7... and 5 items for $10 (I think... it might be $11). They also have a juice bar, but the guy doesn't come until the early afternoon. The only thing is I wish they had more fresh options. They have lots of cooked options, though. Love and Island Style, Renee Rises read more

Spinach, soy chicken, quino, and lasagna was good. I want work at around here so I'll def go here while I'm on my break read more

This is my FAVORITE ITAL SPOT. So many options to choose from and you could never go wrong with your pick. The setting is buffet style and you get to choose what you'd like to eat. The pricing is affordable and the staff is extremely friendly. I highly recommend this place especially for someone that has never tried Ital food. This will def help change your mind if you had any negative thoughts on vegetarian food. ITAL FUSION FOR THE WIN!!! read more

I've been coming here for some time here and there but now it's turning into a regular thing lol. Breakfast always good but I have to go early to make sure what I want isn't taken up. Lunch/dinner, there is so many options and always tasty. Even when sometimes there's no more tamarind sauce The guys there always nice. I'm always happy when I leave! read more

Holy cow, this was good. I highly recommend it. Staff was friendly as well. The food was perfect.

I was a bit skeptical when first seeking a vegetarian restaurant. That was due only to my wondering what the food would taste like. I expected the food to be very bland. Boy was I wrong! The food is AMAZING!! My first order was placed at the Church Avenue location and I later became a regular at the Nostrand Avenue location due to this location having more options. Whenever I don't feel like cooking, this is my go to place...like today...I will be visiting later! P.s: The customer service is always delightful. read more

Yummy vegan spot in Brooklyn. I've been here twice and I've enjoyed myself each time! It's especially good for take-out!

Delicious. It's a bit more expensive ($13 for 7 items) than other Ital places in brooklyn I've been to but it's got SO much flavor. The chick peas - get that. The greens (I think he said collabaloo? but google doesn't know what that is) are delicious. I do wish they had jerk tofu. I'll be back - even if it's 16 stops on the 2 from my apartment. Homegoods and target are just down the block. Also yelp says it's on the west side of the block but it's on the east side. read more

I come to the ital fusion when I'm in the area.. I must say their patty selection is delicious. I've had the tofu, callaloo, soy and fish patty and they were all very good and had a great spice. I have yet sampled their food, but it does look very good. A must try is the juices, freshly made to order by the "juice man".. he did a kick ass job with blending my juice, based on what I wanted. read more

The food is always good and it is vegetarian. My goto lunch place every weekend in the summer. The callaloo is consistently tasty and so is everything else. Definitely a place that should be on your list. read more

Yea this satisfies my caribbean vegan palate! Many options, very tasty! Sometimes the lines are long and the juices are over priced but waiting for delicious food is always worth it. Try to go earlier in the day vs when they are almost closed... oooh and the patties are yummmmy! read more

Love this place; just really disappointed today getting there at 6am and they are not open. Waited around till 630 but still nothing. Would be great if you could pick up the phone. Please advise your hours as online says 6am. read more
