Yet, that's my preference. The chicharrón de pollo was crunchy . The ambiance, I get kids are kids, but management needs to stand up and don't let high schoolers be disrespectful with unruly behavior towards the staff and harassing patrons when ordering. There aren't many chairs but I understand this is more of a grab and go kind of spot. Did I forget the alcapurrias? They reminded me of the ones that I ate at the school cafeteria back at home in Puerto Rico. Just hit the nostalgia taste buds. FYI, if you are looking for desserts to accompany the food sadly they do not provide it. This is more of a cafeteria than an actual restaurant type of place. That stated, if you are in the area by passing and want to grab something to eat this is a good place to stop.

On the Westside of Syracuse is a small, if not for the bright orange color, unassuming building…read morecontaining a little hidden gem of Syracuse. This place has some of the absolute best empanadas I've ever had. Beef or chicken, both are delicious. They're large and honestly could be a meal by themselves. Fresh made, tender juicy meat inside, perfectly crisp, flaky, tender dough outside. Like a good amount of other city Spanish eateries, they serve mostly combo plates, where you get a choice of rice, beans and a meat. The chicken stew and fried pork are delicious. The rice and beans are a tad bland, but nothing some Cholulas doesn't fix. Their sweet fried plantains are delicious too. Cheap prices. You can get a medium or large combo plate and the way they load you up on food, a medium will probably last you two meals. Two medium combos, 4 empanadas and an order of plantains cost me just $30 today and the wife and I will get at least 2 meals each out of it. I lived around the corner from the building Jandy is in for the first 21 years of my life. It's in a rough neighborhood for sure, which I feel probably may turn off people not from the city to stopping in, but anytime I've been in, the people who work there and patrons have been nothing but friendly, so I recommend everyone give them a try if in the neighborhood.

I expected a wait because the fish is prepared to order and a crowd was already waiting. I asked for beans on the side for every meal, they took my number and told wait outside, saying they would call or text when the order was ready. After about 35 minutes with no update, I checked inside and was told it was not ready, so I went back outside. Another 30 minutes passed before I went back in and found the order ready, though they had never called or texted. Beyond the food sitting and getting cold , the rice was mixed with beans despite my request and the note on the receipt. They offered more rice and beans separately, but I waited roughly 20 minutes before leaving. The food I received did not justify the wait or the cost.

Getting a quote was easy, and they were flexible as we updated our final guest count closer to the event date. Kimone was especially wonderful to work with. She communicated frequently throughout the planning process to make sure we had everything we needed and answered all of our questions along the way. I truly appreciated her patience, professionalism, and valuable input as we worked through menu options for approximately 95 guests. Most importantly, the food was amazing! Our attendees enjoyed the meal, and we received many positive comments about the quality and variety of the food. The catering delivery arrived about 30 minutes earlier than the scheduled time. While that was unexpected, it worked out well. Thank you, Kimone and Shane, for helping make our alumni reunion a success. We would gladly work with you again and recommend your catering services to others planning events.

A quick review from a recent uber eats order…read more I was in town for a business trip and decided to order a few uber eats orders since my hotel's food is not the best. Looking through recommendations I came across Mr. Bigg's restaurant. I am always open to try different cuisines and one for sure was Caribbean/ Jamaican when I am back home. It was definitely surprising how fast it was made and delivered but then I also noticed it was located pretty close to my hotel. I ordered the Oxtail with beans & rice, plantains, steamed cabbage and an additional side of corn bread. First bite was a delicious. The oxtails are tender fall of the bone. Great depth of flavor and texture was delicate. Plantains are nice in flavor and color, steam cabbage is steamed nicely not watery, rice was a great compliment and the corn bread was moist and sweet. Overall I appreciated the food from Mr. Bigg's restaurant. I did not have a chance to stop in around the city for restaurant due to my schedule but this was a great presentation of what the restaurant offers. Caribbean cuisine is something I do not often get but when I do, I never am disappointed. I would recommend this and especially if you like a meal that is full of flavor, spices and possibly put you to sleep haha
