Cuchifrito Reviews
Great place to visit and get a delicious meal!
A true taste of the island right here in Middletown! I had the rice with pigeon peas, paired with pulled pork and fried plantains. Everything was made fresh to order and packed with authentic, bold flavor. This place has been open for years for a reason—it’s an absolute staple in the community. Don’t sleep on this spot!
Have been going to this place for years now! Place is very authentic and the tastes are amazing! Great people own Cuchifrito and always have a great experience when we go! Can’t wait to go back.
