    Arrived to Mofongo's today after a recommendation and it didn't disappoint. Our server was excellent, ambiance was very similar as being in Puerto Rico. Loved their outfits, went extremely well with the theme and food was outstanding. While visiting Miami or when near Calle 8, it should be an official stop. Prices are definitely in the higher end but you're in Miami can't expect much. It was definitely a great experience.

    Run don't walk! This place is delicious! Fast and friendly service as well. They also give you a little shot of coquito when they bring you the bill. Must goto spot on Calle ocho.

    It was a really great presentation of plantains and seafood. The atmosphere was really fun. I enjoyed my Mofongo however, I feel like there was only three pieces of shrimp in it. We added lobster and payed extra for it. I would return for another dish. It's a fun neighborhood too. Our waiter was great and the sauce like we ate with the Mofongo was nice.

    I had an amazing experience at Mofongo's! From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a great meal. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt right at home. Mofongo Perfectly seasoned, with a crispy exterior and soft, flavorful inside. We also enjoyed the tostones and arroz con gandules, both cooked to perfection. The portions were generous, and everything came out hot and fresh. However the alcapurrias were a big let down. Different recipe from the original location.

    It's where the best Mofongo is at

    This was my first time here and I must say I LOVED IT ! The mofongo churrasco and shrimp were all on point and very delicious.

    The new Mofongo is absolutely amazing. Great vibe , good music and happy people. Staff were very welcoming and food was DELICIOUS as expected. Definitely will be returning. If i had one critique it would be to figure out a way to properly fry that chicharon on the Kan Kan without over cooking the pork chop. The chicharon was not crispy enough and still looked under cooked.

    Such a great selection of traditional Puerto Rican food. Portions are full and service is excellent. I really enjoyed the previous location but the newer is larger which I am happy they have grown and can serve more. Just wish the vibe was little warmer in art and color as previous. Great team tho

    Food was delicious. Good prices on the happy hour menu served through out the restaurant not just at the bar. Service was attentive with several employees checking in on us not just our server. The ambiance is so much better than what is used to be at the old location. It's bright and airy and has a big screen tv with pictures of the beaches in PR. Also has an upstairs for additional seating. Came on a Friday evening and was able to get a table for two (before 6 pm). May get busier later on, tho. We enjoyed it very much and look forward to telling our friends about the updates!

    The mofongo was delicious. I love they was playing Puerto Rican music. Service was great.

    Menú típico puertorriqueño! Pedí un Trifongo con ensalada de pulpo uno de los mejores que haya probado. El sazón supera las expectativas.

    See all

    Looking for this small restaurant I saw on Yelp on a rainy day. GPS tells me that I have arrived at…read moremy destination but I miss it. If it wasn't for a lone Puerto Rican flag by the door, I almost keep driving and dismiss it as if it was a false Yelp page. Thank God I did not! This little place is tiny, with a counter that sits about four people max and a small table for two. They specialize in takeouts mostly but we were able to snatch that little table for two. From the start, the lady at the counter was super nice and we immediately felt welcomed. We ordered an alcapurria, which for me is something I order to gauge the level of what to expect from our meals. Is it overcooked? Is it undercooked? Is it fried on burnt cooking oil or fresh? How a restaurant serves you an appetizer is very telling of their level of attention to detail. Luckily for us, this appetizer was perfectly cooked and it had a very well seasoned ground beef that was very flavorful. I, of course, ordered a Mofongo with fried pork chunks, which is one of my favorite all time meals while my wife went with her go-to chicken breast with salad and tostones. Both of our meals were very satisfying with a nice authentic Puerto Rican flavor. My mofongo was soft and moist with the nice flavor of green plantains. You would find the flavorful pieces of pork grind mixed in too, just like they make them back at the island. The pork chunks were flavorful but a little too hard and challenging to cut through with the plastic cutlery that we were given. I'm sure I would have enjoyed it way more with a good fork and knife in hand, but nevertheless, I can see myself ordering the exact same dish next time I buy dinner here again. My wife was very happy with her meal too. Overall, we will order to go next time, or for delivery. I am curious to see how this mofongo will travel. One thing I noticed is that they don't serve the mofongo with chicken broth on the side which would probably be a great idea to include, especially on a delivery. Plantains dry up so a side of this could revive it back to its full flavor. I'm very happy to have found this place and I recommend it.

It's a small place, with only a few table, but the food is definitely worth it. The alcapurrias and sorullitos made me feel like I was back at home! Show El Chinchorro some love. You won't regret it!

We ordered a ton, and right off the bat: if you love croquetas and empanadas, order extra. They're on the smaller side and come individually, but they are so good they disappear fast. The beef empanadas were a 10/10 perfectly seasoned and crispy. The chicken empanadas didn't hit the same for me, but the jamón croquetas? Absolutely insane. A must. For appetizers, the prawns al ajillo were delicious super flavorful and cooked perfectly. We also tried the grilled octopus, which was good, but not my favorite. It leaned a bit bland for my taste, even with the sauce. Now, the must-get: the carnitas with pickled onions. Easily one of the best dishes of the night so flavorful, tender, and perfectly balanced. For entrées, we had the ribeye steak and arroz con pollo, plus sides of tostones and yuca. Everything here delivered. The steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right not overly salty. The arroz con pollo was phenomenal, the kind of dish you could eat every single day. The tostones were crispy and tossed in garlic, which took the flavor to another level, and the yuca was melt-in-your-mouth good. I also ordered a mojito, which unfortunately was very watered down, I barely got any of that classic mojito flavor. Service overall was solid, especially considering how loud the restaurant gets it was honestly hard to hear each other at the table, so shoutout to our server for keeping everything straight. The appetizers came out quickly, back-to-back, which we loved. The only downside was the wait for the entrées they took quite a while after we finished the apps, even though we ordered everything at once. Overall, amazing food, great energy, and definitely worth going just be prepared for a lively (and loud) atmosphere.
