“ Authentic food with excellent service. Our server took the time out of her very busy day to explain the menu and offerings and even gave us a few suggestions and recommendations. Food came out blazing hot and fresh. The portion sizes are HUGE and everyone in my party left with a doggy bag. This place is the epitome of comfort food. The only downside is that there aren't a lot of vegetarian/vegan options. Other than that, I would recommend this place and plan to visit again! ”
“ Great price, fresh food. The fried appetizer platter is excellent and we had the mofongo bowls. Also great, loved that there were fresh grilled peppers and onions. ”
“ If you want authentic Spanish food then this is the IT place, they used to be located in the heart of Allentown but sadly they moved to Bethlehem. Their location may have moved but their food is as delicious as it continues to be. I have tried other Spanish restaurants but they cannot compare to Casa de Mofongo. I highly recommend this place!!! ”
“ First time here. Nice little restaurant on main Street. Has a nice little island vibe like when I went to Puerto Rico . Server was nice and attentive and the food was good ”
“ The mofongo is a garlic lover’s dream. The plantain itself has great texture, but the chicharrones were rather gravel-like and tough, so I’d recommend getting a different protein. Mofongo has a tendency to be extremely dry; the one here was moist. It’s a gigantic ball of starch that’s enough for 1.5 meals. Food here is generally very good, especially for the price. They have 10 lunch specials such as the rice with a quarter of chicken. The main issues are with service. I suspect customers are not coming back because of it. By American standards, service can come across as unfriendly, uncaring, and unwelcoming. The restaurant also insists that you buy bottled water; they will deny a request for tap water. If water were 1 it’d be more acceptable, but they charge 2 for a bottle. Sure they’ll get a quick two bucks but people will feel ripped off and choose to not return. ”
“ A little pricey but decent food in downtown Bethlehem. If the price per plate helps keep the restaurant open, we will continue to pay it. It's now a couple of years since the restaurant opened so a little ambiance would make a slight difference and bring in more patrons that may not be familiar with the cuisine. ”
“ This was our first experience here. It was amazing. Everything we ordered was delicious. We ordered a chicken empanada, the mini mofongos, Bistec with veggies and sweet plantains, and the grilled pork chops in the house creole sauce. It's a shame we are so far away. We would definitely be ordering our way through the menu. I definitely recommend stopping in here and giving something a try. It was a great experience. ”
“ WOW!! If you are looking for some fantastic flavors this is the place. I highly recommend the Pulpo A la Parilla /Grilled Octopus... Maybe the best Octopus I've had. ”
