Listen... I walked into Mofongo King like a normal human being and walked out like I needed a forklift. First of all, that mofongo? Built like a brick. Not a side dish a structural foundation. If there's ever a hurricane in Port St. Lucie, I'm hiding behind that thing. Garlic, flavor, soul... it tasted like somebody's abuela stood in the kitchen whispering, "Eat, mijo." The pork? Crispy, juicy, and seasoned like it just won a Grammy for Best Supporting Meat. And those pickled onions on top? They came in like backup dancers adding drama and attitude. The garlic sauce sitting on top of the mofongo like it owns the place? Elite behavior. I poured it on and immediately forgave everyone who ever wronged me. Portions? Absolutely disrespectful. I ordered lunch and accidentally secured dinner and emotional support leftovers. Service was on point, food came out hot, and the aroma alone probably raised property values in the plaza. If you leave hungry, that's on you. If you leave without a food coma, you did it wrong. Mofongo King isn't just a name it's a warning.
The food and service was awesome the Pork Shoulder what we call pernil was amazing and so was the Alcapurias, pastelitos we had a great time.
Drove all the way from NJ to eat dinner with my family at "The Mofongo King" July 2026 and the food was NOT at all good! The waitress was the worst I do not recommend this restaurant whatsoever; they're only good for online skits and videos! Respectfully note that the restaurant was empty upon arrival no customers ... see for yourself check out the pics attached below -
I didn't go into the restaurant but I did order food for delivery at the hotel. They delivered sooner than anticipated and the food was fantastic. I ordered the mofongo with chicharrón de pollo. The chicken was absolutely tasty! The mofongo was good, even as leftovers. It was a little drier than I would like but still good. I also ordered the alcapurrias. These were delicious! I would definitely recommend this place.
The food was great, good portions, good sizes. The staff was kind and attentive. Very cute inside with colorful murals and Latin music playing.
okay so i finally tried Mofongo King and i honestly don't know why i waited so long the mofongo was SO good, perfectly seasoned, soft, not dry at all, and the carne frita on top was bussin. the vibe inside is super chill and welcoming, bachata playing in the background, staff was super friendly too. portion sizes are huge btw, i literally had leftovers for the next day lol. if you haven't been yet you're missing out from
Hello Yelp fam! Since moving to Port St Lucie FL we're trying all kinds of new joints. My family recently sent me a video of this Puerto Rican spot which happens to be 10 mins from my house, so we gave it a shot. This place is in a strip mall, right next to a Mexican restaurant. It's got a few tables and chairs in front of the window, it doesn't look like much from the outside, but once inside you're greeted by this 3 ft tall mortar and pestle (un pilón), a friendly young lady that takes you to your table. On opposite walls are huge murals depicting the beautiful island. The tables are comfortably spaced so you're not on top of each other. There's merengue and salsa music playing overhead making you dance in your seat, just loud enough to enjoy it and still be able to have a conversation without having to yell. The name suggests the mofongo is the best, and it didn't disappoint! I haven't had mofongo this good since I had it back on the island! It was creamy, packed with chunks of chicharrón. Speaking of chicharrón, the appetizer of this mouthwatering delight was a full pound! I mean huge pieces of meat, not a couple of pieces of meat and the rest fat, no, this was awesome! I had arroz mamposteao, which is day old rice mixed with habichuelas,sofrito, and plantains. A side of conch completed my meal. The wife had steak and onions along with the mofongo and man o man, everything was excellent! I was food dancing the entire time. The vibe was that of a neighborhood eatery, reminiscent of what you see in PR. Relaxed, everyone was enjoying the food and chatting with the table next to you. The beer and wine selection isn't extensive, but it'll do. It was a bit pricey, but for the amount of food that was served, worth it. I wish I could give 8 stars, the place deserves it. I'm already telling my kids to prepare themselves! Definitely keeping Mofongo King on speed dial!
If the picture isn't enough read the rest... Still dreaming about this Father's Day feast in Port St. Lucie Hands down one of the best meals we've had in a while! The Kan-Kan pork chop? A crispy, juicy, flavor bomb that deserves its own holiday. The churrasco? Cooked to perfection... tender, juicy, and seasoned like it was blessed by the grill gods. And the alcapurrias?? Let's just say I'm still fantasizing about them. Golden, crunchy, and filled with pure magic. Everything was bursting with flavor, soul, and tradition. If you're in Port St. Lucie and don't eat here, you're doing it wrong. 10/10. No notes. Just go.
Wow! I can't say enough about this restaurant! We were visiting family in the area and because we saw a huge sign for mofongo we had to stop in! Jose, the owner gave us a run down of the business, where they started and how they recently renovated the inside of the restaurant to level up and match their quality of food. He definitely was right about the quality of his food! Outstanding- from the apps we ordered, yuca fries and cornmeal sticks with the delicious sauces to our entrees with mofongo. Literally everything was delicious, plentiful and kept you wanting more! Their homemade hot sauce is chefs kiss!! The family we came with never had authentic Puerto Rican food and walked out of the restaurant raving about the food, wanting to bring their friends next time! They have awesome homemade sangria (and I hear their coquito is pretty great too). They also have a takeout counter to grab a quick meal that'll keep you full for many HOURS! Jose, thank you for making us feel at home and we can't wait to visit again soon!
I can't figure out why this place isn't 5 states across the board. I eat all over the eastern seaboard, never at anything other than non-chain restaurants. I ate at a place last night in Hallandale that somehow had 4.9 stars with over 1900 reviews. I wasn't impressed at all. Here it's 3.9 and shouldn't be. Do yourself a favor. Come here and come here often. The mofongo is phenomenal. I got the grilled chicken in creole sauce. My wife got the mofongo with pulled pork. We didn't speak to each other after the first bite. Couldn't get enough. It's delicious. We travel to Florida on the turnpike often. We'll be back
Food was amazing, the atmosphere was to die for also the staff was super friendly!!! Definitely recommend!!!!
Made the 2-hour drive to Mofongo King's in Port St. Lucie just to see what all the hype was about, and I can honestly say it was well worth the trip. I've been following them on social media (@mofongoking) for a while, and their online presence convinced me to make the drive. The restaurant was packed, so I recommend arriving early. The food is everything you'd expect from authentic, homemade Puerto Rican cooking with those classic Vega Baja chinchorro vibes. I had the ensalada de pulpo, with the churrasco with white rice and beans, a parcha sangria, and of course, the mofongo. Every dish was outstanding. My wife ordered the fried pork, and it was just as impressive. What stood out so much was the hospitality. Despite having such a strong social media following, the owners were out on the floor, greeting guests, taking photos, and making everyone feel genuinely welcome. That kind of personal touch makes a difference. An easy 5-star experience. The food, the service, and the atmosphere all lived up to the reputation. We'll definitely be making the drive again. read more
4 of us went last night, we liked it so much last time. We had apps; araparillas which had so much potential they were so greasy, fried cheese with guava dipping sauce which needed to be less diluted so the sweet of guava could be tasted. The yuca fries were good. For dinner I had the tostones rellenos with skirt steak the meat was tender but the tostones were incredibly greasy. Husb had the pork chunks which they took off the bill. Overall not a great experience. Server was nice especially to remove the one dinner from our check; ambiance is neighborhood casual. read more

Drove over an hour cause I'm a fan of their videos. Everything great except the mofongo (their namesake) gets a 4/10. They obviously prepare a garlic sauce but they overdid it and mofongo was served very soft almost runny. Worth another try but I'll definitely ask for less garlic in mofongo read more

The food was extremely good. My wife and I split the entrée and we still had leftovers. The service was extremely good to the waitress was extremely nice and very attentive. She made sure we always have drinks. The inside of the place is even nicer. It's a nice themed Puerto Rican restaurant. I'll definitely be back here. It was really good. read more
Wow, this place was absolutely amazing. First off, very nice to have smiling hostesses greet you as you enter the restaurant. They have a hot counter with all sorts of chicken, pork and beef along with a number of different side dishes. Everything at the counter looked fresh and delicious. You can order from the menu if you like and we chose that option as we wanted to try the mofongo. My better half had the churassco and I had the pernile, both with the mofongo. Both dishes were delicious. This will be my go to restaurant for Latin food up in PSL. I highly recommend this restaurant. Don't miss it. read more
So I came here to try something the place ultimately did not make. I walked in and the waitress and owners daughter was super nice. She told me about their takeout kind of deal 8.99 for 1 meat and 11.99 for 2. I ended up getting the ribs and paid the extra for the pork. I got yellow rice with plantains and I was able to get a taste of the sweet potato. I also bought a piece of cheese flan for 6 dollars. I ate half of my meal. Food was good. Not the best ever but solid. Ribs were good but lacked something. The pork was good. Rice was good. Glad was also delicious. Sweet potato was good. For 19.50 dollars. Food was good. Making 2 meals out of it. Overall I'd give it a solid 4.4. I would agree with the overall score. I'd try again. read more

On our drive up to Orlando we got hungry and wanted to stop for lunch. This was on my list of places to try in FL so we stopped in. :) Service was good, the waitress was friendly and polite. The food was ok. I did not know Kola Champagne was created in PR, even though we just went in 2021, we did not have any Kola Champagne there LOL I liked this original version but did not love it, I prefer other brands... Alcapurria was good, just a tad greasy though... Monfongo with Chuleta CanCan and Shrimps, this is a meal for a whole family! It makes for a great picture LOL But the monfongo was too dry for my taste. I ended up eating the Chuleta with rice and salad. Hubby didn't mind it, but he's Dominican so he loves plantains no matter what LOL Chuleta was good! If I ever come back I would get the mofongo with garlic shrimp or beef stew or something else that is saucy so that the mofongo wouldn't be so dry. read more

Super friendly and super clean. Quality food but bland (rice & beans was almost tasteless). Again, quality ingredients and nicely presented but seems they are cooking for elderly folks in an assisted living facility. Hope they improve Sazon, because they are great folks. read more
