Reviews for El Meson in Freehold, NJ
We got there around 7 and it was busy we waited 20 minutes, no problem. It started to settle down 10 minutes after, chips and... salsa came out quickly and that was all for the fast service we got, really wanted to like this place, but people who camein10/ 20 minutes after us were seated and their food came first. I get on a Saturday night it gets busy but our waiter reallydidn't have any regard for us. The food was just OK nothing to brag about we will not be going back. Read more
Their fajita salad is the only thing I order because it is so delicious!!! The staff is very friendly and everyone loves their... food. It is BYOB. Read more
This restaurant is a scam. After 18 of us got seated, we were told we only have 10 mins to order(waiter could have informed us... before, we could have chose not to sit). Prices are relatively high for a Mexican restaurant. Plate share charges 9$. 4% forusing a credit card for payment. There was a paper in the menu which said tips should be given in cash. Though the food wasgood, i wouldn't go back. Read more
It?s the most cute restaurant I?ve ever been in! There are hanging sombreros on the light fixture and little cute rugs on the... table. Walking in here my first thought was this would be the perfect Mexican food date night! The food however really didn?thit the spot. I highly recommend ordering from the special menu as it?s more traditional Mexican and less Americanized. Howeverthe atmosphere from the workers was very nice, light, and friendly! Fresh salsa and home made chips are also served on the tablefor free!***** Read more
First let me say, parking is tough in this area of Freehold. Ummmm, not a lot of taste in what I ordered, except the salsa... verde(acquired taste). Enchiladas ( steak, chicken & cheese), refried beans, sour cream & rice. I wasn't impressed, maybe adine in is better then take out. Well good luck Read more
Love El Meson, might be my favorite Mexican joint in the central NJ region. The waitstaff are super nice the food is fabulous... and man do they know how to cook lamb! How rarely do you get that? I loved every part of my meal and it was amazing. From thesoup to the enchiladas, try the chicken ones they?re literally too die for! Sooo flavorful and mouth watering I wish I couldhave some now. Only thing I would skip are the chicken tacos which we all thought were too tough. But overall 5/5! Read more
El Meson is on our go to list for over twenty years. BYOB and order your way through their large menu. Sit inside or enjoy... sitting in their outdoor terrace. Our favorite starter is their seafood soup! Also recommend visit and shop for fresh groceriesat great value prices in back of restaurant. We get our bag of 30 corn tortillas after every visit.
