Fabu Restaurant & Catering — Restaurant in Smithfield Township

To the owners of Fabu who so graciously share their expertise with us and give us the opportunity to seat down and indulge in exquisite Haitian cuisine a huge thank you is not enough but just the start. Having had the privilege to travel to various countries around the world such as Jamaica, Costa Rica, Mexico, Chile, Brazil, Germany, Iceland, Argentina, Canada, France, Cayman Island, Vieques and Belgium just to mention a few... it is indeed an amazing experience to taste fresh food with such an outstanding and authentic seasoning with such a rich flavor and freshness.

Please do not pay no attention to those who criticize and exaggerate the waiting time which is not true. Maybe they should go further down the road and order some fast food with the common food chains so they can get it quick.

Fabu is true, authentic, genuine and freshly made food to your order not defrosted and deep fried like many. So please ignore those unfortunate individuals who think that by complaining they may get free food... yes that is a typical trick of the complainers' trade.

As an individual born and raised in an island... I felt just at home when I sat at Fabu, it felt so relax and enjoyable. This is truly 5 starts service right close to our current home.

So in short, Fabu please keep doing what you are doing because you are doing a superb job. Many blessings and may you prosper abundantly.

Can't wait to buy some of the...

What a wonderful meal we just had!! Delicious Haitian food, made fresh after you order. It came out piping hot and was so tasty! The owners were super friendly and sweet, and you can tell they take a lot of pride in their food and their restaurant. The setting is beautiful, and there was peaceful French jazz music playing. Our meals came with salads too. And they're open on Tuesday, a day that a lot of other local restaurants are closed! I had the legumes with shrimp, which was delicious, tender carrots, cabbage, etc with six large shrimp (tails off, which I always appreciate), two fresh hot pieces of fried plantain, white rice, and red beans with some sort of starchy vegetable (maybe chayote?) in the middle of them. A big meal! I had to take some home even though I ate a lot! $26. Well worth it. My baby LOVED the rice and beans!! My husband had the stewed goat, and he said it was great, not tough at all. The thing about this place is that everything is made freshly and served fresh, so nothing is dry or reheated. They even gave us samples of the passion fruit juice, and that was awesome. Like nectar! Yum. I highly recommend this restaurant. Such a nice,...

Nice looking restaurant when you step in. That’s about all I have positive to say.

Ordered take out. Told me 30 minutes & they took an hour and 20 minutes.

After an hour and 20 minute wait you’d think this food was off the charts based off the reviews and that long of a wait for 3 separate meals.

Nope. The meats were ok but how the easiest thing on the platter wasn’t even cooked?

The rice was so hard I had to make my own at home to eat with the food.

The plantains were so greasy they were inedible.

The Goat was Ok. The chicken was OK.

For $125 and close to an hour and a half wait, you would think they would give you cooked rice.

They attempted to make up for it by taking $4(FOUR) off of the tab and a juice.

Love to see new business attempts but ya gotta do better than that. Unfortunately it won’t be me who will be trying again though.

Another miss in the Poconos

Edit: I’ll give the 3 star because they seem like genuinely nice people...
