Casamon Caribbean Cuisine & Catering — Restaurant in Rahway

I have been meaning to try out this place for months and finally had the chance today. I ordered the sampler platter that came with jerk chicken, oxtail, and salmon with rice and peas, mac and cheese, and a cabbage slaw. It was my first time trying oxtail (8.7/10) and I was impressed! The meat was tender and juicy. The salmon (6.5/10) was good, albeit a bit dry. The jerk chicken (8/10) was juicy and tasty! The mac and cheese (8.5/10) was soft but flavorful. The rice (7.8/10) was seasoned well and tasted good! i’m not a cabbage fan personally but the cabbage slaw (6.7/10) was seasoned well. I typically prefer mine cooked down a bit more but it was a good contrast with the rice. Lastly, I had a passionfruit juice (8.9/10) which was sweet, refreshing with the right hint of sourness. The service was quick and pleasant! The lady at the front was nice and had my order ready in a decent amount of time. It’s a cute family owned business and although they don’t have a large space, the food is great. It’s a bit pricy budget wise for one person but I did order the sampler and it did come with a hefty amount of food so I believe the price was fair. I will definitely be...

I’ve always liked this food. I ordered from Door Dash and never had a problem. However, instead of calling me to say they were out of dumplings, they omitted it. It took 1.5 hours for them to prepare the food. The sad thing is wasn’t fresh. The Mac and cheese, oxtails was old. I know what warmed up food tastes like. The beef patties they advertised was not the homemade ones they make. It was store bought because I have bought them before! I pai $5 each that could have bought at the store with 3 for $7. I wouldn’t have minded the old Mac and cheese but the quality of it has gone down. It seems they make it with less cheese now…. Go figure. The only thing decent a little was the soup but you can tell water was put into it to stretch it. You can’t fool someone that knows how to cook these dishes. I want to support black businesses but this happens all the time with their restaurants. The quality goes down. I fell I love with place 3.5 years ago and thought I found one of the best Caribbean delicacies but not anymore. I paid $56 dollars and took 3 bites before I dropped the fork in...

My partner and I visited here after she found great reviews.

I ordered the chicken casa pasta and a beef patty. Pasta/sauce was great but I wasn’t a fan of cut up chicken pieces on top of the pasta. I was expecting something else like a chicken breast cut up and that’s my bad for not asking. Can’t blame anyone that’s my preference. For the 30 dollar price I had soooo much pasta but not enough chicken.

The beef patty was really good besides temp! Probably the best I’ve had. Waited about 25 minutes for it to be made fresh while we were waiting for the main dishes to be made to go. When it was brought outside to me the edges were piping hot and the middle was completely cold so I wasn’t sure what was made fresh about it. The taste was like it was handmade though. I was hungry so I tore it up.

She ordered the oxtail meal and really enjoyed hers.

I think I will try something else next time but not the pasta again. Staff was VERY welcoming and friendly so that was no...
