Merengue

“Not only do they deliver, but they deliver when you ask them to have it there and everything is always hot and fresh.”

“Juicy pernil and crispy chicharron, flavorful seafood salad (mariscos) and maduros that aren't too sweet and go well with the arroz habichuelas.”

“I've had the Mofongo with pork and the roasted chicken with spanish rice & beans.”

  1. A pretty girl sat down at the end of our lunch table one day and she had just heated up the most delicious smelling food. Some sort of pork dish ~ Mmm! The sheer memory of it makes me hungry! She told us she bought it at Merengue and the rest was history!

    I hear Merengue opened up earlier this year and already the prices went up $1 so get over there fast! [some dishes became "Special Order"]

    Here's the deal: $5.99 for Entree and 2 Sides, $6.99 for Special Order and 2 Sides.

    Aroma: Mouth Watering!
    Taste: Wonderful!
    Portions: HUMUNGO! Even the guys had a little take out box!
    Price: Can't be Beat!

    The Entree's we had were: (1) Oxtail Stew (2) Pernil (Roast Pork)

    Although the oxtail was delicious, the Pernil was AWESOME, their signature slow roasted pulled pork with crispy skin. YUM! It was my first time trying it and I loved it!

    Thing's I still have to try:
    Mofongo (Mashed green plantains filled with meat)
    Cuban/Pernil Hero
    Modongo Soup (Beef Tripe)
    Baked Pork Ribs
    Goat Stew (Fri Only!)
    EVERY Empanada

    So many Options, so little time! Eeeee!  ^_^

    Check out the pics I uploaded, you'll be there in no time!

  2. Merengue!

    Merengue has recently opened right down the street from work and so far we are all loving it.  

    First and foremost, they deliver, which is almost a requirement in this area for any food establishment.  Not only do they deliver, but they deliver when you ask them to have it there and everything is always hot and fresh.

    The food has been VERY good – every one of the wildebeests at the job are satisfied – and they are a notoriously picky crowd.  

    The empanadas are big and perfectly cooked.  They give you six choices and we haven't found a bad one yet.   The mains are all tasty and delish -this place is really not going to help with my so-called diet.

    Prices are great- $5.99 for any entree w rice & beans plus a side or $6.99 for 2 sides.

    Great find- try it if you are in the area.

    Parking on the street.

  3. What a pleasant surprise in the neighborhood. We got two pork meals on the take out menu and did it make our family happy!

  4. They have a jukebox, that blasts Latino music as you are trying to place your order.  The server asked me WHAT? at least 5 times.  Hello, TURN THAT THING DOWN?!?!  There are day worker types sitting around with their beers at 1pm.  This place is also only open sporadically as we've passed by a few times and it's always closed.

    The food is way too salty and they don't have salsa verde.  WHAT LATIN RESTAURANT DOESN'T HAVE GREEN SAUCE?!?!?!

    Never coming back again, no matter how much we crave Latin food.
