    I ordered the Alcapurria Bites, Sweet Plantains and build your own bowl with yellow rice, beans and pernil. Easy process and the servings are huge. It was definitely enough for two meals. Really beautiful space!

    Rice bowl shredded pernil beans picadillo alcapurrias and empanada

    The bowl was ok except the picadillo taste too much vinegar..the alcapuria was nasty and the empanada too

    I really enjoyed the food, and the employees were very nice. The portions were good for the price, and I believe it's some of the best Mofongo I've had in a while. This is just my personal opinion, but if I'm in the States, I plan to come here for the best Mofongo! I would Take it to go though! You will know what I mean when you get there.

    Smaller place, but efficient! The service is always nice. The girls behind the counter are always friendly. Great deal if you sign up for the reward system. The portions are big and plenty for me. I'm there at least once a month. Fried chicken and rice Mofongo is my favorite!!

    Chicken empanada. Looks a lot better than it tasted

    We got a chicken empanada, pernil (shredded pork) rice bowl, and mofongo chicken wrap. The empanada tasted awful, we both shared half of it and just tossed the rest. The rice bowl was surprisingly really great though. I loved the combination of chimichurri sauce, mayo-ketchup, and pico. The meat was a little over cooked but really nicely spiced. My partner also liked his chicken wrap. It was a good size, well filled, and tasted good. He said it didn't taste much different than a Mexican burrito though. We definitely would return for our mains, just never getting the empanada again.

    This is the second time I've been here. I initially went many years ago and I thought the food was amazing. I was recently in New Britain and wanted to go again. It's definitely not as good as I remember. The staff was super nice however there is no AC on a very hot day. I ordered the veggie Mofongo. Asked me which sauce and I didn't know who he gave me some samples. It just tasted dry so I needed a lot of sauce to give it flavor. My husband liked his rice and bean dish that he made up. I did not like them empanada. I thought the empanada was very oily and greasy, and I could barely taste. What was inside from the over And grease. I have never had an empanada so I'm not sure if this is common for empanadas or not. I don't plan on coming back. I think everyone should check it out to see if they like it. I do recommend fixing the AC because it was very hot.

    Down town on Main Street resides this restaurant. It's filled with colorful murals, ultra clean, and plenty of seating. I loved the yellow accent benches! I originally ran into staff at Mofongo at CCSU during spirit week while working there as a chef. They let me try out pretty much the whole assortment of juices they were offering, and I told them I would be in... That was 4 years ago!!!! I'm so happy to see they are thriving in the New Britain community. I couldn't choose between fresh juices, so the lovely lady mixed the two for a delicious strawberry mango concoction. It was tough to decide what to get until I saw what the guest in line ahead of me got and said, "I want that!" Carne frita (fried pork) was made in front of me using balled up plantains and garlic oil, topped with meat, thinly sliced fried pork. Finished with a drizzle of chimichurri, creamy spiced mayo, and salsa fresco. Delicious!! Thanks, Mofongo!!! Lunch was amazing

    Pernil Trifongo

    This is truly one of the best meals I have had in CT. I discovered MofonGo at their Parkville Market location and have loved them ever since! Whenever I am visiting family in CT I always grab this meal- it is consistently amazing and huge portion!!! This is the most elite menu option- the pernil trifongo, add all toppings. Cannot recommend enough!!

    Rice and beans with Pernil

    Looking for authentic Spanish food in New Haven and came across this restaurant. It's basically cafeteria style. You order food and sit at a table. All food is served in to go container with plastic utensils. I ordered the rice and beans with pernil and extra beans on top. Pretty basic but good. It was full of flavor and def fresh. The staff was so friendly. The restaurant is very clean.

    Keny G made our experience unforgettable , he was friendly ,professional, quick, attentive and efficient . The place was busy ! Making a reservation is highly recommended . Even though it was busy he made us feel very special ,as if we were his only table , we were a table of 7 . The ambiance was light and happy all the staff members seemed to be having a great time . He gave us yummy coquito shots ! Food : DELICIOUS ! I went with born and raised Puerto Ricans and we all agree the food and service were phenomenal . The presentation , the taste very authentic and quick . Parking : just pay valet $25 . Street parking ,kinda impossible since it's a busy street . Overall this was my first time ,I had a wonderful experience I will be recommending to everyone I know . Thank you KENY G

    Super good food for take out. I got the mofongo with steak & onions, and lots of plantains. I saw on here that someone asked for extra garlic in the chimichurri sauce so I copied them and it was soooo delicious. I am obsessed with garlic so all of this flavor was amazing for me.

    See all

    Food did not have flavor. Pernil was greasy and flavorless. The rice and beans were bland.

    I got the food Togo. It was good Spanish food but not like real Spanish food. More like commercialized Spanish food.

    Enjoyable meal and great selections. Clean eating area for a take out resturant vibe. Great helpful…read moreservice next time I'll read the menu I picked with my eyes. Lots of leftovers.

    My first time here over the summer was good overall! The food was hot and the staff was friendly,…read morewhich I appreciated. They have a good amount of seating available inside and great options to choose from. We did end up grabbing some made to order alcapurrias. All 3 tasted good but they needed hot sauce, lacking in flavor. I felt as the chicken one lacked the most flavor but was ok when hot sauce added & so did the pork one. I'll say that the ground beef alcapurria was my favorite out of the 3; although I still personally felt they all needed some hot sauce to add that kick missing. An alcapurria is a known Puerto Rican fritura/fried street food, growing up to even being an adult it's one of my favorite things if done right. We also had the bistec with rice, a side of beans, & a side of plantains. As well as the pernil with yellow rice. Both of these dishes lacked flavor, again needing hot sauce or missing something. The beans did have a good amount of flavor, which I enjoyed, & the plantains were slightly over fried. The visit itself was satisfying, I would return to give them another shot as well as hopefully try their carne guisada plate, which wasn't available at the time I went that day. I didn't give this business a 4 star rating simply because of the lack of flavor in mostly each item ordered. I would give it a solid 3.8 if I could.
