Had a catered event from El Meson and the food was phenomenal. I had a group of 30 people and everyone complimented the food. Food was fresh and well seasoned. We had rice, chicken and pernil .

DOROTHY I am who I AM

I have to give a three-star this is the first time that I placed an order online and went to go pick it up usually when I visit here I go into the restaurant and order. Something was going on with my phone and they were trying to call me to let me know that the pork chops that I had picked out they no longer had so when I got there I couldn't even pick up my order I had to still wait and I had ordered their fried cheese by the time I got home it was soggy and not really good. Now keep in mind I placed the order a half an hour prior so when I got there and they told me that they couldn't fulfill my whole order I had to wait because they suggest I would try the fried pork bites. They were too well done I didn't care for them at all and then I got the chicken fried bites and I thought maybe there would be breast meat it was all dark meat thighs and it was barely any meat mostly all breading it was not good at all. Since I did have to wait the guy threw in some pulled pork as an extra which was nice but I would have preferred the pork chops. I have eaten here in the past and have liked their food I was just kind of disappointed this time I have to wait for the food as a 3 star,I wasn't impressed with this meal.

One of my favorite places to eat authentic Dominican and Latin American food!! We also cater from there their Arroz con gandules and meats (beef, pernil, etc).

You won’t go wrong by going there!

The food wasn't very good to me. The meat was tough and salty. They don't speak English at all. Lucky I went with woman who speak Spanish or i would not have been able to order.

The place look nice but the food is horrible and the natural juice taste bad we spend 95$ and we did eat it…I think they need to update the service… or training the staff better …oh and they don’t serve the mofong in the pilón have bad food representation and the rice with guandules looks poor that’s look more like only yellow rice because you can’t see the guandules

This so-called restaurant exceeded expectations because it is so bad. I visited several months ago and had not dared to leave a comment. I thought the food was Dominican, but what's embarrassing is spending more than 70 dollars and ending up with a belly ache, without even having eaten half of a plate. Everything tastes strange and old, not to mention the supposed Chimi who had cardboard meat, and even the potatoes were stiff. Mofongo tastes like earth with garlic. In conclusion, get yourself someone who knows how to cook.

I ordered a chicharron mofongo and it was overcooked with garlic, it came without enough sauce or salad.
