EL Sazon de MAMA

I was driving up to visit my family for Christmas Eve. A typical Latin Christmas Eve meal includes roasted pork. I looked for and reviewed several places in the Ocala area and decided upon this restaurant. (Last year I ordered from another location that never answered the phone and directs you to order via an online link that does not work). I must tell you that Jorge who took my order was very friendly and helpful, checking with the owner Raymon, to ensure that the order was placed properly and that my family would have a good meal and enough quantity, on this special day. When I arrived to pick up the food on the 24th, the owner himself assisted, locating the roast pork that was already prepared and ready, and even helping me by bringing it to the car. I had also ordered some roast ch

Went to try the food since I was in town. I ordered goat with purple potato salad and guineitos. Food was good, the goat was cooked really well. Ordered some guava and cheese pastries and they were horrible. It had some syrup on them that made them soggy and tasted bad. The morisoñando was good. The pastelito was not good as I ordered a cheese one and come to find out it was stuffed with American yellow cheese. Not mozzarella or the queso blanco dominican pastelitos are usually made with. The music was nice and they have the space to turn it into something where locals can come and dance so there is potential.

Do not go in there! My stomach still hurts. The alcapurrias have a weird taste, the mofongo was nasty, soda cans dirty, in the front the food was swimming in oil, the guy in the front was nasty. Ay no - please stay away from tjis place. It says on internet puerto rican food and the sign on door says dominican food. No cus service. Hate it it!

We ordered the rice and beans we got the red beans not very many on top of our rice. We ordered the stewed chicken to go with it and it was hard as a rock. The skin was like leather. Usually, I have it fall off the bone. I’m not sure if it was from yesterday or what but I’ve had a lot better. I really wish them success in their future. They were very very nice possible stomach ache coming on.

Our first time visiting, 4:00 pm on a Sunday. Not crowded. Good Customer service. The food was very tasty. We decided for 2 small size food services. ( Pictures ) They have a Bakery area too with quesitos and Flan etc The whole area inside looked clean.
