This is Smalltown, USA and honestly my last 7 trips here I had been eating at Sheetz because I had…read morea bad experience at the sushi place and was scared to eat anywhere else. I did a Yelp search and this place popped up. I prayed that it was authentic cause... you know how things can get misconstrued. I was so afraid that this would again be some gross ethnic improvisation of a small town meal... well, as I live & breathe, it wasn't. It was authentic. The servers were authentic, thecooks, the food, the music... they even spoke Spanish. I felt like I found the promise land. I was stuck in a land of salt (no pepper), and then just like that...I Christopher Columbus'd La Isla de cilantro! Aye! The food is amazing... Notice I said "the food". It's all on display so you can drool at the yummy goodness if it all. The service.. umm... we'll get to that in a lil bit. But, going back to the food.... yasss!!!! I can't wait to come back and I will be ordering a large (instead of a small) of the chicken soup. The meals are reasonably priced. So service.... I suggest you carry out. I, however ate in and my service would have been better had I gone this route. Ask for the menu at the front. Order there AND pay there, then have a seat. Don't expect anyone to check up on you thereafter. Just eat and leave because they are busy at the front. The mistake I made was not paying outright. I had hoped someone would come to my table with a check... it didn't happen so I went to the front with all the take out orders and they rung me up there.

The quality of the food is consistently outstanding--fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Every dish tastes like it came straight from someone's kitchen, not a restaurant line, and that's exactly why I love it. When I'm here, I don't feel like I'm dining out... it feels like home cooking. The staff is another reason this place stands out. They are warm, friendly, and genuinely attentive in a way that makes you feel welcomed the moment you walk through the door. It's the kind of place where they remember you, smile at you, and make sure you're taken care of without hovering. If you're looking for comfort food, authentic flavor, and a place that carries the same energy as visiting family, Casa del Mofongo is it. One of my favorites in Bethlehem, hands down. Highly recommend!

We ordered the pernil and rice platter, the bistec salteado, a shrimp mofongo, a kids chicken tender meal, and a couple pastellios to start.

We really enjoyed our meal and experience, and they even sent us off with a couple alcapurrias on the house! We're gonna try to stop back in again before we leave, can't recommend this place enough!

The space is filled with so many Dominican touches that brought back pure nostalgia. From the sayings and pictures of our history painted on the walls to the explanations behind them, it was beautiful to see our culture and history represented so thoughtfully, and even better that others get to learn about our country through it. Dining in with my family was a great experience. Having the option to choose from the prepared food or order directly from the menu was a huge plus. Everything we ate was incredibly flavorful and clearly made with love. I didn't just leave with a full belly, I left with a full heart. Truly a special place.

La Parada is a medium sized Dominican restaurant with a wide variety of prepared foods in warmers, and even more menu items available upon order. We saw rotisserie chicken, beef stew, and pork ribs (among others) being kept warm at the counter... But the dish we chose was the PERNIL with yellow rice and beans. A home-made beef empanada would accompany that. The empanada was good (albeit a bit light on the filling), the yellow rice and beans were great, and the Pernil was phenomenal. One of the items they offer is mofongo! They said that requires 20 minutes to prepare, and we couldn't wait... But next time!!!
