Before visiting any other fast food or fast casual locations stop by this delicious healthy oasis. You’ll have a healthy plate in a quick turnaround. The jerk chicken was just right. Enjoy!

Fresh Food Generation is one of the best restaurants in the city. Their mission is to create a quality product with a quality experience at a price that everyone can enjoy. Better tasting dishes than some “fine dining” experiences that I’ve had in the city. The team is always friendly and kind. And their level is of community engagement is top knotch. The outdoor patios are a great place for a casual night out or to host an event. I highly recommend eating and spending time here.

I just love this little Restaurant the food is j good to perfection. My 2nd time there and I got the Salmon, Red Beans Rice, Coleslaw, (Delish) and Fried Plantains. I couldn’t resist and got a side of Collard Greens. The Greens were delicious not too Salty, which is a problem for me when it’s too much Salt. My Daughter ordered the Oxtail Dinner which my Daughter said were delicious! I love that they have a nice outdoor area that is clean and you can sit and enjoy! I will have to change it up and order something different next time. I definitely consider it 5 Star!

I’ve been to Fresh Food Generation a few times and haven’t been disappointed yet. My favorite thing on the menu (for now) is the burger and fries. The quality of the meat, well done, but still juicy…..and hand cut fries . Not to mention the price. Thank you FFG for great food, clean space, and amazing customer service.

This spot is a “Jamerican” spot with food inspired by the Caribbean. The food is freshly made, though I would say I have had more authentic tasting. The service is great as well as the space. They started as a food truck, but I have not had the truck menu.

Fresh Food Generation is a new gem in the Dorchester neighborhood. The food is fresh, farm-to-plate Caribbean American cuisine and very tasty! They also have these amazing juices that are made to order. I had the Mattapan Mocktail…yum! The customer service was A+, the decor was very modern, chic. This is my new go to spot for the perfect blend of Caribbean American cuisine.

Love the diversity of choices. Empanadas was a hit. Coconut rice is yummy and chicken with spice just right if you do not like too hot. (just enough spice). Salmon plate is flavorful and restaurant is notable clean with live plants on wall. My guests were making happy sounds. A find.

FFG is my go-to place for reliably delicious food. The mac ‘n cheese is a little dangerous for me to order – I could eat a whole pan of it! Love both kinds of chicken and the collards and empanadas. Can’t say enough positive things about this Boston gem!!
