    Inexpensive, friendly service, large potions and delicious what more can you ask for !
    Viv V.

    This place is delicious, the food is packed with flavor. I love a good whole in the wall, and home cooked meal. It reminds me of my family cooking. My husband has taken me here twice and it has been consistent. We both love it and they have great service and big enough potions to share. This is our new place for home cook meals... when my hubby doesn't want to cook.

    My first time here today. I had no clue this place has been here for a Year and a half. A whole in the wall gem. We tried Mofongo/Steak and Onions/White Rice/Rice with Pigeon peas/Chicharron/Shrimp in Garlic Sauce and Empanadas. I'm in trouble as this food was very tasty and hit the spot. For my American neighbors that love my Puerto Rican cooking, they will be going here too once I let them know. Great job guys, and much success to your business.

    Food is the best I had outside of Santo Domingo. Fresh and seasoned to perfection. Very large selection on the menu. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was the service. We were not given any silverware until after the food was put on the tables. It would have been nice to have some bread/crackers while waiting for the food to be cooked . The lack of MOJO and other sauces was also a negative. I am however looking forward to going there again

    For those of you who are impatient and don't like to read the bottom line is that I do not recommend this place. For those of you who want the nitty-gritty let me explain. we happen to be in downtown Jamesburg and found it amusing to see a Dominican restaurant on the main strip so thought we'ed give it a chance, despite some of the mixed reviews. When you first walk in you definitely get the Caribbean island feel with the huge mural of island life and the Salsa music playing over the speakers. there was no one to receive us in the foyer, but we gradually inched our way in, and we spotted that the action was happening in the dining room to the right. The one on the left was closed off. after about five minutes, we grabbed menus, and eventually seated ourselves. Our hopes were really high since it looked like many of the customers were local Hispanics. Also, both of our go to Puerto Rican food restaurants had gone out of business, and we were looking for a replacement. however, we started to grow increasingly impatient as five minutes turned to 10 or more before anyone even acknowledged us. finally someone came over who had the personality of dried yuca chips iand she took our order. Although I speak Spanish fluently, she seemed unable to understand either Spanish or English, and we struggled to put in our order. It seems like it took forever, Maybe 20 minutes or more for the food show up. in the meantime, people around us seem to be getting their meals before us, even though they arrived after us. The other unusual thing is that we probably would've had better luck if we stepped up to what look like a deli counter, where it looked like you could order directly there. But no one told us about that option. I had the stewed chicken and my partner had the deep fried pork. The presentation was nice for both meals but the taste reminded me of my mothers cooking. For some people that's a good thing. In this case it's not. The tab for both meals came in at a little over $40 and which we rounded up to $50 just to get out. I think this is a pricey given the quality of the food and lackluster service. We both decided we will not be back.

    I'm from QNZ, NY but living in the area so I know my Dominican food. The food slaps pretty good…read more Rice was homemade, I can tell. Chicharron was perfect just like the bodega down the block back in the hood. Beans were great. I'll be coming back often. Don't sleep on this spot.

    Limited by travel as of late I agreed to try a new place my husband found on Yelp for a late lunch…read more I ordered takeout, 4 different dishes just to try a few different items on the menu. I'm not sure if this establishment has dine in option as I did not pickup the order. The Mofongo de chicharron, which was overall fine, the sauce has a lot of good flavors. However, I have to mention that at the center of the mofongo there was a large piece of pork skin that was not mashed that was over an inch long. I was reluctant to try to chew this piece but I gave it a go anyways. It took about 6 minutes to chew through it but I just ended up swallowing some pieces just to get it down. This large piece of skin also created a crater in the middle of the mofongo which made part of the mold hallow. Cutting the chicharron pieces into smaller pieces might have been better. Other than that there were good flavors, a good balance of chicharrones and plantains. The lunch specials on the menu indicate the entrees are served with white rice, mixed rice and salad, much to my family's dismay they were not aware that "salad" meant pasta salad, so if you're not a fan of mayonnaise based pasta salad I wouldn't recommend it. The res guisado/beef stew and the rabo guisado/oxtail stew where practically identical, the portion of entree to sides are severely at an imbalance. You get a small scoop of the stew and the rest of the takeout box is filled with rice, pasta salad and wedged on top of your rice is a small condiment container of sauce that my family said was unidentifiable. The rabo guisado, as mentioned above looks identical to the res guisado with the addition of the small pieces of oxtail. We also had an order of chicharrones, it wasn't bad it had good flavors, it was bit softer than I preferred but still had some crunch to the skin, not maximum crunch but some. Was the chicharrones worth $14? Sadly no. Would I give them another chance? Possibly, just for the mofongo, but that's just a maybe.

It's a very casual, cafeteria-style spot with a semi-open kitchen, but don't let the simplicity fool you -- the food is incredible and the staff here is friendly and patient. The highlight of the experience is the small buffet that features a variety of freshly-made Latin cuisine -- including pulled pork, chicken and beef stews, and other traditional Latin entrees and sides. You can build your own plate by selecting one or more entrees and sides - which are priced accordingly. As a 'gringo' who wasn't entirely sure what everything was, I really appreciated them taking the extra time to explain all the different options and give me their honest recommendations. The counterstaff is bilingual and were pretty patient with my elementary school level Spanish vocabulary and grammar. I ended up going with the pulled pork platter with two sides ($7) and it was terrific -- the perfectly seasoned and tender pork, black beans and rice, and macaroni salad were delicious and very filling. You can tell they use fresh ingredients, and the portions are very generous for the price. If you're looking for authentic, home-style Latino food in a laid-back setting, this is the spot! PRO TIP #1: Bring a bottle of wine or beer from home to enjoy with your meal. Sazon Latino is a BYOB establishment and does not serve alcohol. PRO TIP #2: Sazon Latino offers free off-street parking in a small lot behind the restaurant and there's plenty of free on-street parking on Main Street.
