great restaurant! – I have eaten at El Meson quite often and it has become my favorite restaurant. The food and service are always top notch. The newly redecorated interior adds a warm and romantic atmosphere and the expanded patio area is great on a nice summer evening. If you haven't been here in the past year, please return. You will be pleasantly surprised.

More spanish/latin than Cuban – Very good food, and an excellent lunch buffet. Their dishes are exotic and creative, with rich sauces and unique combinations of ingredients. I have seen the paella and it looks wonderful-- I plan on trying it soon. They have recently updated the interior and have live music on the weekends. Definitely a nice change from chain restaurants.

Good Latin food--but no Cuban available – I went to El Meson because I was looking for Cuban food, and CitySearch listed it as such. I came away pleased with the restaurant, but Cuban it ain't, nor does it even attempt to be or claim to be. Whoever reviewed it for CitySearch and listed it as Cuban probably thinks Castro is Puerto Rican.

Great lunch buffet! – A co-worker and I found this place by accident. We were very plesantly surprised! The lunch buffet was fantastic, both in flavor and variety. This is certainly more of a pan-latin joint than Cuban. Smoky pork ribs, black bean soup, rice-n-beans, and an absolutely smashing curry chiken dish! Their salsa was very good, too. You could easily make this a regular lunch destination.
