La Choza Restaurant Latin Cuisine — Restaurant in Bristol Township

Sooooooo if you grew up in a Puerto Rican household and come here looking for authentic Puerto Rican food.. you’re going to be disappointed. Frankly, I should have known that a restaurant can’t have all types of Latin food perfected. The atmosphere was nice and our server was also very nice. However, when I ordered empanadas, the inside of it was cold and the dough doesn’t come close to the what I expected. I came for one reason and that was my craving for a traditional pork mofongo. What I got was an averagely seasoned mofongo with just pieces of a pork chop around it in what seemed to be mashed potato gravy. Which is okay if that sounds appealing but for someone who’s grown up in areas that had tons of these types of dishes, I thought a recipe like that could not be messed up. I’m sure the Mexican food would be great here but if you’re looking for something authentic or a dish you’re very much familiar with, I would not recommend this place. The service was good like I said but the prices for the food you’re given when you expect one thing and get another is just upsetting. Long story short, I left and had to pick up more food...

My husband and I love ethnic food, and we were looking for an authentic Latin American restaurant. We've been to Costa Rica, Mexico, Guatemala, Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico, and were intrigued by the menu at La Choza in Croydon. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals last evening!!

I had the Parillada Mexicana, which was outstanding---very flavorful, excellent quality ingredients, plentiful. It was a variation on traditional fajitas, but the chorizo was deliciously crumbled and sauteed with the vegetables---not at all greasy!

My husband ordered the Chaulafan Sauteed, which was a rice dish with assorted meat, chicken and seafood. Also delicious and plentiful!

We thoroughly enjoyed our meals, and were so full that we happily brought home our leftovers.

We look forward to return visits to try other dishes, including ceviche, goat stew, and many more!

The restaurant is immaculate, nicely decorated, and the staff is very helpful. Don't miss La Choza--you...

I've always seen this place on my way to work and have been waiting to try it. Finally I went in to day for my first experience. Upon entering the cashier or hostess did not greet me and I had to ask for a menu myself. I tried ordering in Spanish, but the girl at the counter claimed she didn't speak Spanish. I then asked my questions in English And the same girl asked "what" in a short rude tone several times and rolled her eyes when she could not understand my English accent. I expect to be met with frustration due to English being my second language, but the last place I would think to encounter this is a Latin restaurant. It seemed she was more interested in her phone then serving a new customer, so I left to give her more time to browse. Unfortunately, I will not be visiting or recommending this place...
