“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!“

“Their chai pancakes were one of my favorite things from my trip. Vegan options are clearly marked, and they have a little market along with locally made art for sale. It’s a renovated church and has a cool community feel to it. Updated from previous review on 2026-01-18“

“very small spot but food was on point and would recommend it to anyone this is real puerto rican food“

“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.“

“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!“

“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 .“

“Absolutely terrible costumer service, a friend and I went in to get some food and we were asking questions and the workers were giving us attitude and ignoring us. I've also noticed a roach on the pizza, This place needs to be shut down. They should not be in business because of the way they be talking to costumers and being rude and nasty. We are not coming here ever again.“

“Absolutely delicious, afordable, and great service. One of the times I went, it was the birthday a person who was working there. The staff gave everyone sitting in the restaurant cake, on top of making a delicious chicken plate for me prior. I 100% recommend this local spot!“
