“I think it might be quicker to take a taxi to JFK, fly to Puerto Rico, eat at a lechonera, and fly back, than it is to get served here! All joking aside 🤣 the lines are long, but man, best Lechon I have had outside of Puerto Rico! It is super flavorful and the skin is CRISPY! The owner is very kind, and he makes us Boricuas proud! 💪🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷 I love the Salsa music and Hector Lavoe playing out there, and the feel is the authentic Nuyorican feel! I absolutely recommend this place 10 out of 10! Arriba Puerto Rico! 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷“

“First time in this place.... And man on man the food, the customer service and just the atmosphere was a great vibe . It actually felt like I was in Puerto Rico when I was eating the food. Every bite you take is an explosion in your mouth. I left the place wanting a bed. I ordered Christmas in July and the shrimp mofongo and the taste of the food was out of this world. I defentifly recommend this place. I promise you, you will leave this restaurant satisfied.“

“Muy buena. Comida y buena a. Atención“

“The pasteles were delicious! I took a chance since I saw this add first on Facebook and I was not disappointed. They deliver to NJ at an additional cost. Los pasteles muy ricos!! Me tomé un chance ya que fue en Facebook y sabemos que cualquiera cosa puede suceder y valió la pena. Ellos hacen delivery a NJ a un costo additional. Definitivamente vuelvo a ordenar. Ordené de yuca con pollo y plátano con pollo. Me llegaron 2 de yuca con pernil y también estaban delicioso!“

“Havent been here in years (15+ years) and was in town and decided to stop in like I used to years ago before heading back out of town to go home and was kind of disappointed that the food is nothing like I remembered it to be. It was just cold and no flavor.“

“Great food and service. Just moved here in the area and all I want is Spanish good for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Everything’s well done and juicy! (Pause) I recommend boneless chicken, white rice, red beans and salad. In the morning mungu, cheese, salami and eggs or a sandwich.“

“I was at a nearby hotel looking for a delicious smoothie and got so much more than I imagined. I walked in and immediately the vibe felt right. A very kind woman gave us the lowdown. There were not a lot of options but enough for breakfast/brunch. I ended up with a smoothie, ginger turmeric shot, and the chai pancakes. These pancakes were not light and fluffy. They were soft and dense and beautifully topped with granola and nuts and bananas and I truly enjoyed every bite! Smoothie was good but the mint was a bit too much for my tastebuds. Highly recommend this place! Updated from previous review on 2026-03-03“

“Was craving some good Dominican food & found this gem. If its a hole in the wall i just know the food is gonna be amazing, and it was! The service is even better, cozy space but you feel right at home. The Morir sonando really had me soñando. The portions are perfect!“

“This place has earned my repeated business. The kitchen delivered more than I imagined. The look of this place is incredible. The employees displayed friendliness and menu expertise. After my recent relocation, finding this place was a pleasant surprise.“

“Deliciosa lechona, idéntica como la preparan en Colomba. Recomendada.“

“We hadn't been here in a while. Looked forward. Start positive: White rice, red beans, and arroz con gandules, very good. However, on a Friday evening (7ish) , there was only 1 server for the entire section. It was not crowded. Empty tables in our section.We placed our orders right away with drinks and an appetizer. We waited more than 30 minutes for our drinks and appetizer. Appetizer never arrived, but our main courses (both the same) did. The fried pork chops were overly cooked - dried excessively. They were more like fried pork chunks. Difficult to eat. Knife had a difficult time cutting the meat. Margarita was subpar at best. Management needs to step up. I am a strong supporter of local restaurants, especially Puerto Rican/Latino establishments. This restaurant is an East Harlem icon. Overall: disappointed.“

“Excellent! Visited from upstate Ny and they were so amazing to me and the family. My daughter loved their food and loved their potatoes in their stew chicken and they made my daughter feel special by giving her extra while eating and to take home . Felt like I was with family. Great food great everything don’t let the negative reviews keep you away, I Will be back !“

“The food is very good, the owner is very nice person, the guys from the delibre are very good person but the person who works in the afternoon and a skinny one there talk to you as if you were a dog, you ask for chicken and they send you goat, you ask for oatmeal and They send you a mess of coffee but if they manage to send you what you really ordered the place is 5 stars“

“My family has been enjoying cuchifritos for as long as I can remember & im turning 36 this year ! 😫anyways we haven’t been to a cuchifritos in a min cause we’re from nj . My family is from nyc so we’d get cuchifritos when in nyc . Today we got some cause we was in nyc . We bough so many frituras we spend $101 . Insane but worth it .“

“Definitely recommend their food it’s amazing. Feels like I’m back home the food is just delicious.“

“I've been going to this place for over 20+ years with my family! It remains one of the best places to get crispy pork and rice and beans in the bronx! New owners have come along and other dishes they sell dont really hold up to the level of the pork. Stick with the crispy pork and you will be in 5 star heaven!“

“This review is long overdue! This is my FAVORITE Spanish restaurant ever. Their chicken is juicy and tasty, along side the mojito sauce; Amazing! They never fail, I’ve been going to them for over 8 years now. So good that I moved and still travel to eat from them.“

“We were a large group and arrived earlier then our reservation and they accommodated us right away. Food was great and our server went above and beyond when he checked our daughters ID he must of seen her bday was next week and had them sing and bring a dessert to her once we were done with our dinner. Highly recommend“
