"Ever dish is appetizing . I only finished part of the dish of curry chicken . I'm a little let down because I was expecting the curry chicken to have a lot more meat in the food container that it was in but the flavor of the chicken juices is so wonderful that I can already tell I'll be returning soon . However I'm sure the oxtails and goat plate will be liked and taste excellent too . I have no serious about the Caribbean meal it's amazing and all of my drinks came with the order . The cream soda in particular is so good that it may really make me get five of those and I was really pleased with every dish that was prepared and served so I'll be ordering five more of those cream soda without adding a dinner I'm going to be reheating some more meals later because I'm so full right now . Tropicana and the Caribbean grill will be my two favorite restaurants . I'll place separate orders for two meals and beverages from each of them so please don't go out of business I will always be there to support your company "
"Egusi soup with Assorted Meat it was very bland, it taste like cheddar cheese. It didn't have any spice. The meat was very chewy. I also got the Oxtail (Large) the oxtail flavor was good but the size of the oxtail was very small (chopped up meat with bones) with a big portion of rice, very small amount of cabbage. For the amount I spent I wouldn't order here again. I am very unpleased. "

"The pad see ew was really good. The sushi was warm, probably a result of being bagged with a hot item. The spicy crunchy salmon roll was really bad. Like a sweet salmon purée.

"The food was okay... the Fried Red Snapper w/ Veggies was much smaller than expected & the "veggies" that came with the fish was just raw onions & green peppers. It wasn't worth $20.

I was able to save a little more than half a cup of the spicy rice to use for another meal (since it's packed with rice), and I finished the rest of the bowl. The beef suya, suya rice, plantain, corn salsa and the sauce were 10/10!!!! I absolutely have nothing else to say except the fact that I will be ordering this again multiple times during lunch time!"
"The fried plantain was absolutely delicious and the cucumber salad is excellent. This is my second time ordering from this establishment and the first time I ordered the rice noodles with double lamb and fried plantain, with the cucumber salad and suya rice. Everything was delicious and wonderfully seasoned. My only complaint is that I attempted this time to order the rice noodles again and instead of getting the noodles, I got rice with a double lamb, and not rice noodles with double lamb. But the food was still excellent and I would highly recommend the rice with double lamb."

"What a treat. I wasn't sure how well Ethiopian food was going to pack and travel but it arrived in perfect shape. The collection of vegetarian dishes was superb. Spicy but not overwhelmingly so. The Tekil Gomen and Shiro Wat are two of my favorites but their version of Kayser -- the rich, mineral-laden beet dish, was incredible. Just delicious. It was served on injera, as it would be in a restaurant, with several more rounds of the flat bread folded over the top to soak up any sauce that spilled over in transit. Ed I definitely did not need the extra side of injera I ordered. This meal would have fed 2-3 hungry people. There is a smaller sampler for one but I wanted to taste everything. So glad I did. Will definitely order again!! "

"Lega tibbs very flavorful and plentiful. Two sides also included. This is how lamb tibbs should taste."
"I don't often write reviews but this was disappointing. Quantity and quality seemed off. We spent almost $100 and tibs were salty, dry and veggies combo also felt like it was lacking the typical dynamic flavor that makes ethiopian food so good and we were so excited for it! Quantities were much smaller compared to other restaurants we visit. Our in-person visit was better than takeout but both were long waits. We are huge ethiopian fans and this was disappointing."

"Every time I have an “antojito,” a craving for mofongo, I hit up Mecho’s. I’ve had a lot of different mofongo dishes from various restaurants in the region, but Mecho’s is by far the most flavorful! And their Bandera plate always lasts for two meals. Love this spot!"
"Way too much plantains and barely any meat. I ordered the 2 meat Chicken Bandera and Goat Bandera: chicken and goat. They offered 1 chicken thigh and 2 very small pieces of meat. But I was charged for extra meat. If I hadn't of paid extra they would have given me one piece of chicken. . So they put extra plantains in my plantain so I would think it's chicken.
They're not providing as much as they used to."

"Best food ever. The portion is perfect and fresh.I always order from there, and thank you for the best customer service."
"Veggie Combo was abundant in variety but the flavor wasnt the same as other places. Really odd horseradish side that is not traditional. Misir Wot was especially underwhelming, which was too bad because it is my favorite. Maybe the ingredients were less fresh. Spaghetti wasn't good at all and had a sour flavor. Quanta Firfir was the best dish. Would have appreciated more injira."

"We’ve been ordering from Jerry Chan since I was a kid, and after all these years, the food has remained just as flavorful and consistent. Some of my go-to favorites are the shrimp and broccoli, fried wings with rice, and the steak and cheese egg rolls—but honestly, everything we’ve tried has been delicious.
Not only do you get an amazing meal at an affordable price, but you’re always greeted with such warmth and kindness that it truly feels like part of the community. That welcoming atmosphere is just as memorable as the food. Jerry Chan will always be one of my favorite places to visit whenever I’m in the area!"

"The Spicy Effplant tofu was delicious. The portion was very small; chintzy. I paid $16, but was still hungry. Even a little more rice would've helped to fill my hunger--the smallest rice portion I've ever been given. However, the food is tasty. Get extra rice if you're hungry."

"The Halloumi Cheese Side was over cooked and hard. The chicken 12 PERi-PERi Wings were inconsistent with some being overcooked and some being fine. They also seem smaller than what I have gotten from years ago. The garlic bread was delicious."
"I recently door dashed at Nando’s Peri Peri for a team lunch at work, and I have to say, it was a disappointing experience. I ordered the chicken thighs, but what I received was far from satisfying. The “thighs” were so small they barely qualified as actual chicken thighs—more like overgrown chicken nuggets. On top of that, the chicken was extremely dry. I spent $14.19 for essentially three tiny pieces of what I’d barely call chicken, which left me feeling shortchanged and unsatisfied.
I usually budget $17 per person for work lunches, and this meal didn’t even come close to meeting that expectation. It was such a letdown that I couldn’t even get a full meal out of it. I won’t be ordering any time soon."
