El Mofongo’s menu is a vibrant journey through Puerto Rican and Caribbean flavors, offering a delightful variety of dishes that are both comforting and full of bold spices. One standout is the Mofongo, a signature dish made from fried plantains mashed with garlic, olive oil, and a choice of fillings like shrimp, pork, or chicken. The Mofongo Relleno, which is mofongo stuffed with your choice of meat, elevates the experience by adding layers of savory goodness.
For those craving something light yet flavorful, the Tostones—crispy fried green plantains—are a perfect starter, paired with a zesty dipping sauce that enhances their crunch. If you’re in the mood for something hearty, the Arroz con Pollo is a must-try, a classic Puerto Rican chicken and rice dish packed with saffron and vegetables, offering a rich and savory flavor profile.
Seafood lovers will enjoy the Camarones al Ajillo, succulent shrimp cooked in a garlic sauce that brings a perfect balance of flavors. For a more unique experience, the Lechón Asado—slow-roasted pork—offers a melt-in-your-mouth experience, perfectly complemented by the crispness of the outer layer and the juicy tenderness inside.
The menu doesn’t stop at main courses; the sides are equally delicious, with Pico de Gallo, tangy and fresh, and Yuca con Mojo, a starchy root vegetable served with a garlicky sauce, adding variety and balance to the meal. Desserts like the Flan provide a sweet, creamy finish, while the Coquito, a coconut-based drink, offers a refreshing touch to round off the dining experience.
Each dish on the menu at El Mofongo showcases a dedication to authentic flavors and high-quality ingredients, creating a dining experience that feels both familiar and exciting.
