Caribbean Village Fusion — Restaurant in Pittsburgh

Loved this place. This is another spot that just has the best home style, home made feel to it. Everything I tried was incredibly tasty and well made. It's a real shame it's not visited by more people. This spot is primarily takeout, but it's worth venturing out to. Wait is a bit on the longer side sometimes, but that's just because everything is so fresh. I got to try the brown stew chicken (bing stew), rice and beans, regular bread dumplings, and sweet potato and coconut dumplings (ducana).

To start, the mean dish (the brown chicken stew) was perfect. The meat was seasoned very well without being excessive. It was cooked perfectly, still tender when I received it. Nice chunks of meat for a reasonable price. Perhaps a bit more vegetables would have been nice, but it was very good as it was, too.

The rice severed with it was well made, too. Soaked up the extra brown stew very well. Beans were flavorful and well cooked, too, although there weren’t a ton of them. Nothing here was overly spicy. The dumplings, the standard ones, are like little bread sticks almost. Well made, a tad bit crunchy on the outside, softer inside. Not too flavorful, but still a nice side.

The ducana/sweet potato dumplings were an amazing dessert. Some of the best I've had in a while. Very nice texture, almost creamy in a way. Tastes homemade. Perfect sweetness level. Just so, so good.

All in all, I would love to come back to this place again. They serve delicious food for sure. Definitely try the brown stew chicken and the sweet...

I heard about this place and had it saved to visit. I was doing to get food somewhere else cause I seen online they were closed. I drove pass looking for parking and boom 💥 the door was open. They were closed but cleaning up. The sweet lady asked me if I wanted food they just put it away and can still make me something. I said I would come back tomorrow and she insisted that I tell her what I wanted. I got the jerk chicken it was so good! I will still be back...

While all the other Jamaican food spots are closed on Sunday, this gem was happy to serve us! Everything deserves 5 stars: from the service to the food! I originally went there for brown stew but noticed Roti and spinach patties were available. All three meals superseded my expectations!! The food was beyond flavorful and I feel like the prices are great for the portion sizes. I’m excited to go back for the red snapper and jerk tofu! I AM...
