A welcoming Queens spot where the mofongo is hand-mashed to order, loaded with crispy pork, and paired with house sangria.

Description

You can hear the kitchen staff actively pounding the plantains for each order. Because everything is made fresh, a meal here can take about 30 minutes to arrive. The menu extends beyond pork-filled plantains to include chicken or shrimp mofongo, alongside traditional dishes like carne de res guisada (stewed beef) and bone-in fried chicken. Desserts like flan and tres leches wrap up the meal, supported by a staff that greets visitors warmly at the door.
