    I definitely recommend trying this place when in the area. It's quick when you take it to go. The food is all out in front of you and you just tell them what you want and they pack it up. The food is delicious, the chicken was really tender and flavorful and the juices combined well with the rice and beans. Plantains at times were a little dry. The empanadas are good and flavorful. The staff was friendly and helpful in explaining what some of the foods were. The portions are large and a good deal. Could most likely get a couple meals out of it.

    Ran out of beef stew upon our arrival. Clean establishment. Friendly staff. Food was just ok.

    I really like this place. A group of us came here for lunch and it was the best meal all week! When you come in, there's a buffet area with a selection of all the meats that they have that day. There are also items that are made to order. In addition to that, you can call ahead and they will have your order ready to pick up. We sat in the dinning area. It's not a huge dinning area but nice and clean. I got the mofongo with carne guisada (basically a beef stew). The beef was so tender and just fell apart and the while stew was really tasty. The mofongo itself was delicious, you can tell it was well seasoned. And I have to say, they have very generous portion sizes. With food this good, leftovers are nice :-) I'll definitely have to come back for more food and take more pictures!!!

    Best home style Puerto Rican food ever. It's the closest thing to my own cooking. Every dish I have eaten there is good.

    Island Cho - Stew Chicken

    Island Cho

    If you are looking for food full of different flavor profiles and a different take on traditional…read moredishes this is the right place. I ordered the Oxtail sushi, salmon roll (sushi) and buss up shop Roti . It came with roti, curry chick peas and I ordered a side of mango chutney . Was so flavorful. It is a family ran Establishment so you have to have sone patience with the service.

    UPDATE - AUGUST 2024 - My wife and I have continued to give business to Island Cho (with in-person…read morevisits and take-out orders) a number of times since our first visit and review. We continued to give them glowing reviews and recommend them to a number of our friends and colleagues. Last week, my wife's family was visiting us from out-of-town. We wanted to take them all out for a nice dinner and thought that we would surprise them with a visit to Island Cho. We really hyped up the restaurant to them and told them that they would love the food. We arrived a little bit before 6:00pm. We were seated right away and there wasn't anyone else in the restaurant. After we had all looked over the menu, our orders were taken. So far, nothing unusual. Our drinks/water were not delivered to the table soon after we ordered. We thought this was a little unusual and that perhaps they would be brought out when the food came out. The drinks arrived to our table about a half hour after we ordered, but the food did not follow. We noticed another family came in and were seated around this time. After a short while, they looked visibly upset and got up and left with no explanation. My two young children were very hungry and we were doing our best to keep them occupied. My wife's family asked us if the food normally takes this long, to which we replied, "No, it's very unusual." Nearly an hour after we ordered, the owner/server brought the "Caribbean Wings" (one of our favorite appetizers) to the table. We thought that the rest of the food would be coming shortly after, but before we knew it the wings were gone and we were waiting once again. At this point we debated just paying for the drinks/wings and leaving, but then we would have to find a new restaurant to wait at. We decided to just cut our losses and continue waiting. We also attempted to ask someone how much longer the wait would be, but no one was even at the front counter anymore. Approximately an hour and a half after ordering, the owner returned and said that the rest of the food would be brought out in "five minutes". We brought up that we had two young children who were very hungry and asked why the wait was so long. He informed us that there was only one person working in the kitchen and then he sped away. The owner eventually returned with the food, but only two plates. It was another 5-10 minutes before any other plates were brought out. My wife told the owner, "We're still waiting for my older son's meal and you still haven't brought out the Shrimp Wontons that we ordered." The owner informed us that the aforementioned wontons would not be coming out because they were out of them. My wife asked why we weren't informed of that when we first ordered them. He replied, "We didn't realize until we were about to make them." My poor son sadly kept on saying, "Where's my plate? Where's mine? I'm so hungry." He eventually received his food, but at this point he was so tired that he couldn't even finish it. We decided to just cut our losses, finish the food that was brought out to us, and then settle the bill. The whole experience was well over two hours and we were leaving well past our sons' bedtimes. My wife and I took our sons out to the car while my sister-in-law settled the bill for us. When she came out, she told us that the owners informed her that none of their kitchen workers showed up due to bad communication, etc. She also said that they didn't exactly apologize for our poor experience but rather gave a long list of excuses. My wife and I were SO EMBARRASSED for hyping up Island Cho to our family. We realize that the restaurant industry is not an easy one and that problems arise at the drop of a hat. That being said, we feel that the owners of Island Cho handled this bad situation VERY POORLY. The least that they could have done was give us a heads up when we first arrived. "Hey, we're very sorry but we are short-staffed tonight. You can stay if you wish but it's going to be a long wait," or , "We're very sorry but due to unforeseen circumstances we're unable to accommodate your party." Nope, we received no warning at all. They deducted the items that we didn't receive, but there was no apology or any sort of discount for our poor experience. Although the food was just as delicious as it had been on previous experiences, it was just a little bit too little and too late. After getting home, we found that several patrons have shared similar experiences to ours over the past six months or so and voiced them on both Yelp and Google. We don't see how Island Cho can continue as a business much longer if this sort of bad service and bad management persists. Although we love supporting local businesses (especially family-owned), we cannot in good conscience continue to recommend and support Island Cho. We will NOT be returning again.
