Food was amazing and the service was even better. The kind woman who served me gave me some samples of the other meats which were so delicious. The baked chicken and pork chop were falling off the bone so tender and flavorful. Tried their homemade passion fruit juice and it tastes amazing! Can’t wait to come back and try other things on the menu!

This place is great!! Everything was fresh made. We waited around 15 min for the pernil to be done but we didn’t call ahead and it was 100% worth the wait. The owner was so kind and friendly and the food was
Visiting NY for the first time and happened to find this Gem!!! Took my family to try Dominican food for the first time and my Family and I absolutely loved it. From when we first walked in the energy and vibe that we felt from the Owner Martha matched the flavor of the food. You could taste the Flavors and the Love that Martha and her husband Hector put into their dishes. We had the Ribs, Chicken, Yellow rice ,Cassava ,plantains and Rice with beans and it was fire !!! But it don't stop there. We had the tres leches regular and pistachio tres leches and that desert was BOMB !! Please open up a spot in L.A. . We need some of this home cooking out West !!!

What an absolute delight this place was. El Mofongo provides exceptional food, service and hospitality. Martha, one of the owners makes you feel like you're in her household kitchen - providing background of the restaurant, the hard work her and her husband (who is the chef behind the amazing food) put in daily to the business, and the bonus part...samples of their best dishes. We came for a traditional dominican breakfast and left with food for the next few meals!The Sammy Sosa mofongo is probably one of the best I've had in the Long Island area. Their fresh lemonade is a delightful refresher (can't wait to grab one on a hot summer day). We had samples of Martha's pistachio cake and tres leches, which warranted a take out order of both, along with the sancocho, chicken, and arroz con gandules. The arroz con gandules...by far the best I've ever had. We cannot wait to try this spot again in the near future and look forward to using them for any upcoming catering or large events as they offer great priced catering, baked cakes and family combos. Thank you for your amazing hospitality and for the delicious nap worthy meal!

Amazing Amazing Amazing. Our friend catered the food for a party and we loved it and got the address. Today we decided to try the location out. Martha the owner is super friendly, gave us samples of food to try. Who does that? We took home the rice and beans, roasted chicken, sancocho and home made hot sauce. We will be back to try the rest they have to offer. Highly recommend.

This review is for take out only. Chicken empanada, roast pork pernil with yellow rice and beans. Food is simply delicious. Definitely will come back to try out other items on the menu.

Wow wow wow this place is simply legendary. I came across this place due to a last minute issue with my go-to place in Queens. Turns out that this other place was closed for NYE and I had already put out the word that we were ordering Dominican food for this day. So i scrambled and hopped on yelp to find another spot a few days before the 31st, and I came across this place on yelp. I decided to pay this place a visit with my mother and my cousin, thinking that it would be best to sample the place before placing a large order for 10 plus people. Called them and asked if a Thursday would be too late to place a large order and they said no. Ventured over and met the owners, who immediately welcomed us and began offering samples of almost everything they had to offer. Everything we tried was delicious - from the pernil, to the chuleta al horno, habichuelas negras & rojas, costillas de cerdo... it was all amazing. We sat with the owner (i'm really bad with names and this was for NYE) and started consulting with her about portions and suggestions. We ended up placing a large order of arroz con gandules, costillas de cerdo, pollo al horno, pernil, small order of both frijoles, and a side order of maduros. I believe the total for the order was around $250 and we left a deposit of $100 that same day. When we finished up the order for NYE we went up and placed an order each for a nice lunch. The owner even gave us un pastel de tres leches for us to try it. Her tres leches is extremely popular and famous. Everyone who ate was in love with the food we provided on NYE day. It was absolutely epic and this is now the place we will continue to order from. Even if the drive is about 30 min. Ahhh her name is Martha! And she's an absolute legend of a human. So kind, welcoming, and helpful
