El Mofongo

I've been coming to this place since I was little. Just realized the ownership has changed so I was skeptical of my usual ( cuban) but man it did NOT disappoint. 😍flavor is always on point still taste the same. Glad they have longer hours now too.

I only go here for the Cuban sandwich & one day they were closed so I went elsewhere. Never again. The other place i went to was mostly bread. But el mofongo aren't cheap with the filling. They make a great Cuban sandwich. Oh! & their desserts are perfect too! Not too sweet. Their tres leches is heaven.

The food here is awesome! Always ready to go. You get served right on the spot so you don't have to wait. They have a bakery inside and plenty of seating room. It is a very nice place to eat and relax. The workers here are really friendly and are happy to serve you. My favorite food to eat is Pernil [pulled pork] with Congri [fried rice & beans]. They have Yuca, chicken, plantains, and more.

I’m just writing this post to spare anybody else, I recently just moved to Jacksonville and I had family members in from out of town and we went here to eat some food. Everything looked old from like the day before the food was cold. Nothing had any type of flavor there was zero customers in there you can see the rice was hard. Mind you I am Hispanic, so this was very disappointing to come here and I have food that was so un flavorful and so disgusting and . Please don’t waste your time going here..

I came in at around noon and the place was pretty much empty so there was no wait. The food was a little cold but not bad at the time that I arrive. They didn’t have the full selection they usually advertise but what they did have looked pretty appetizing and tasted good. Had they had their full menu, I probably would’ve ordered something else to go with what I ordered. I guess I’ll have to come back some other time.
