Our party of 4 adults and 3 toddlers just had an amazing lunch here. We ordered 1 creamy shrimp…read moreappetizer, 1 beef tongue taco (comes with 3 tacos), 1 beef burrito, 1 seafood quesadilla, and 1 seafood enchilada. The total was $110 before tax and tips - $140 post tax and tips. The party consensus was that the seafood quesadilla was out of this world. The fish was super tasty and the platter was extraordinary complementary. On the other hand, my favorite was the beef burrito. I loved everything about it. The party's second favorite was the beef tongue tacos. They noted that the beef tongue was super soft and delicious. The flavor within that dish was superb. My second favorite, once again deviating from the group, was the seafood enchilada. I love its combination of sour, spicy, and saltiness. The portions were amazing. The taste was great. And the service was spot on. 5/5 and we will return!

The Sancocho is amazing. Its a hearty meat stew that in my family we call it the hang over soup or the feel better soup. Growing up if I had the flu or a cold my mama would whip this up. Their soup was good... but I wish it had tripe and more meat in the stew and a bit more seasonings. Would i order it again? Probably not. Mofongo. Something that I absolutely love.. It didn't taste fresh.. the chiacharrones ( fried pork cracklings) was not crispy :( The saving grace was their chicken guisado.. a very hearty chicken stew ... that was a chef kiss. The employees are great. But if your looking for delicious Mofongo.. ita in lower east side NYC..

I stopped by La Case Del Mofongo because my other lunch plans fell through. LIke the name of the…read morerestaurant suggest, this place has a large selection of mofongos on its menu. Unfortunately, due to bad past experiences with mofongo from other places, I decided to skip the mofongo and go for a guisada (stew). Generally speaking the beef stew, which was served with beans and rice was decent. However, for my tastes, the stew seemed to be really greasy/fatty. I do not think that I ever had a guisado with so many fat droplets in the "soup". Also, I thought the beef was a bit tough/chewy for a stew; I was expecting the meat to be a bit more tender. While the stew was not horrible, I will say that I was a bit disappointed that I spent $20 on it. Since this is a Domincan restaurant, a little Spanish might go a long way. Overall, I thought the staff was nice. However, this appears to be a place where the staff knows a lot of the customers (or at least the Latino customers), so you might feel a bit like a persona non grata upon entry. However, they'll probably will warm up to you after a few minutes. While I somewhat enjoyed my stew, I really enjoyed my margaritas more. Since I'm still new to the area, I might check out some other Latin/Dominican restaurants before circling back around this restaurant.

I went here because my mom wanted to eat food from her home country of Ecuador. My mom was craving the tripe stew (guatita). My mom enjoyed it but said it could have been better. Something about boiling the tripe. My wife and I ordered the Kumbia Parrillada. Wow! The portions of meats was overwhelming. We enjoyed it. We had leftovers for 3 people. I'm not a big beef eater. But I'm sure if you like steak, you will definitely love this dish. But the star of the meal was the Marranitas. My wife and I greatly enjoyed this dish. My wife love to eat anything with corn. This appetizer was my favorite dish. It is a little pricey but it's probably average prices of most restaurants. If you enjoy Latin cuisine, I definitely recommend Kumbia. After 10pm, it turns into a dance club. They have live bands or DJs. I didn't stick around for the music. But I'm sure its like any Latin club atmosphere.

This most recent visit was with a friend who was trying it for the first time, and he loved it. The food was delicious as always. He had the arroz con pollo (which I recommended), and I had the camarones al ajillo -- shrimp in garlic sauce with rice, salad, and plantains. Everything was flavorful and perfectly cooked. The bartenders were so pleasant and attentive. We sat at the bar, and even though it was crowded (which it usually is -- a good sign!), the service was still great. Now let's talk about the drinks because they were the real stars:    *   My friend had three mango margaritas and couldn't stop talking about how good they were.    *   I tried the cucumber jalapeño margarita -- you could literally smell the fresh cucumber as they made it. It did not hold back on the jalapeño! It had a real kick, but the flavor was amazing.    *   And the mojitos? Delicious. They use real sugarcane, and you can taste the freshness. Great vibes, great service, consistently amazing food and drinks. I will absolutely keep coming back and always recommend this place.
