"I definitely want to give "my new spot" a special shout out. I had the privilege of eating at this great restaurant. In order to see how good the food taste, I order a few different meals. I first ordered a steam Snapper meal with provisions instead of rice and beans, to see how they were going to customize my meal. Next, I ordered a breakfast meal in the late afternoon. The dish was Ackee and Saltfiah with provisions. Lastly I ordered a chicken soup to see how they were going to make it. I must admit, this restaurant went up and beyond my expectations, with the presentation, taste, and customer service. The servings were so plentiful, I shared it with my wife, who almost fought me to get the food after she tasted it, LOL. Although they didn't have the cooked banana that I requested at the time, that doesn't take anything away from them. I recommend this restaurant if you want good authentic tasting Jamaican/Caribbean food. I would know... with family in Jamaica! 👍🏿"

The jerk chicken is perfectly seasoned, smoky, and tender, offering just the right amount of heat. Paired with golden, crispy fries, the dish creates a satisfying balance of texture and flavor.

"Had craven before many times and it's never been like this so super disappointing. The fries were hard, the peas in the rice were not cooked at all. The garlic sauce was not their usual. Hoping this is just an off day but also for $20 each entree and having to pay extra for vegtables, even just the portions not their usual trays that they send out. "

"The portions are so small and expensive.
The food is not appealing and the packaging was messed up because the steak was mixed with the ceviche juice. They should have been in separate bags.
The tostones were not fresh but from a tostone snack bag.
The lemonade was not fresh either. It was from a soda fountain.
The potato was not completely cooked.

the Wings and Fries was really good but I thought the wings were gonna be fried like from the Chinese spot but these were with flour/dredge.. they were tasty but also there were only 3 when this special says there's supposed to be 4. [real rating would be like 4.5 but can't do halves here"

I can't even remember the last time I had authentic Puerto Rican take out this good. the Pernil was soft and juicy. the empanadas were full of meat and so tender and juicy. the portion of the platter was decent. my husband and I shared and didn't leave a single crumb behind."
"empanadas were the best part. none of this food tastes like puerto rican food at all, way to much garlic used in all dishes. beans tastes just like tomato sauce no sazon or sofrito. for the price it's not worth even to try, almost $20 each dish and barely any meat. "

"The Pernil Family Meal + Large Rice & Beans + Side was an Amazing choice. The meat taste was soo flavorful and tender. The rice was cooked perfect and the beans were seasoned as deliciously. The portion was good, I would have liked a larger amount of bean but overall , LOVED IT!"
"I was excited to try Meson Tropical, but this order was disappointing. The food was packaged in foil trays and did not travel well, which affected the presentation and overall dining experience.
The biggest issue was the quality of the meats. The fried pork belly was extremely overcooked, dry, and tough to chew, and the meat in the mini Meson bowl was similarly overdone. Rather than tasting fresh and juicy, the meats seemed as if they had been sitting under a heat lamp for an extended period. More importantly, the dishes lacked the bold seasoning and authentic Latin flavors I expected from a Puerto Rican/Dominican restaurant. The food was bland and did not have the homemade Caribbean taste that makes this cuisine special.
The Spring Meson Chicken Salad and Cod Fish were also underseasoned and uninspiring. The alcapurria was terrible—dry, flavorless, and nothing like a freshly made alcapurria should taste. The Passionfruit Mango Madness drink was forgettable and did not stand out. The stuffed potato ball was the only item I genuinely enjoyed.
Overall, the meal lacked consistency and flavor. I was expecting fresh, well-seasoned dishes that reflected the rich and vibrant tastes of Latin cuisine, but unfortunately this experience missed the mark. I hope improvements are made because the menu has a lot of potential."

Se le olvido mis maduros, pero cuando llame ella misma me atendió y se encargó de que mis maduros me llegaran. 1000/10 por como me atendió y por mi bizcocho. Gracias espero que leas esto. Definitivamente ordenare denuevo y mas seguido. "

Both were done perfect. Their Empanada de Carne / Beef Empanada is one of the best tasting empanadas in the Woodbridge area. So many other local places fall short. I just wish they sold their beans as a large order. I could eat their beans and white rice every day."
"Pescado Frito was well cleaned, seasoned pretty good and fried perfectly. its hard to find snapper that is seasoned throughout. they did a pretty good job. i prefer a little more seasoning but still good.
Sopa De Pescado needed more seasoning but very generous with their portions."

"Not gonna lie, I forgot to take pics before eating and I started demolishing it immediately. The Mofongo is SO good, it's a good sized portion, not too small like some places give. It's also seasoned very well unlike other places that give you bland ones. The steak was very good, the Alcapurria de guineo is as close to what my mom's is as I can find, so it's amazing. The star of the show was definitely the Pastelillo de Guava (Guava Empanada) because I'm Cuban and that's what I was raised on and they do it well! My husband is raving over his food, the masitas de puerco (carne Carne Frita) are soooo good he says. I would absolutely order here again, in fact my husband says he's ordering it on his cheat day next week 🤣"

"The food is decent but my Papa Rellena was cold in the middle. The food is very greasy like it's not strained when taken out of the fryer.
