Decided to take a step in and had a great diner feeling. Ordered some fried delicious food in which they call of cuchifritos. The favorite was the empanada in which they call pastellios. Had some potato balls and plantains. Then decided to order their fried chicken and rice and beans to go. Boy was my bag heavy and to realize that it was insanely stuffed when I unwrapped it at home. The boyfriend completely approves of this place as he stuffed himself with food. The next week he asked to go to this place again and we ordered a pernil sandwich. Again, they did not disappoint!

Sad to say as someone that is also of Puerto Rican heritage the colorism is real. I stopped by this…read moreplace because I was looking specifically for a Spanish food spot and I saw that this is like a little Puerto Rico in Brooklyn and I thought why not let me sit down for my hour lunch break, and eat here. Very wrong decision I walked in, there was an older woman with her daughter, and the daughter was helping her order her food and they were taken care of. I waited as it was very busy. I will say that. A gentleman walked in also Hispanic, but we can identify and assume what color of skin he was because he sat down right next to me, and the server literally went to him did not even look at me not once and asked him what he wanted and took his sit down order right next to me in front of my face! To my astonishment did not ask me what I wanted so I asked him. Do you not see me sitting here waiting to be served?! He didn't even respond. I was going to continue with my order, but it put such a bad taste in my mouth that I stood here in front of the establishment to download Yelp again and write this review. !!Please do not come to this establishment and spend your money because they will not respect you especially if you have of darker skin no matter what nationality you are.! Also the front is crowded with drug addicts!

Instead of getting overpriced foods at the airport, I walked to this place to get some sandwiches for the flight. The restaurant is small but quite clean, not a full service restaurant, but the servers (family) are very attentive and pleasant. There are quite a few dishes on the menu, I always like Cuban foods, especially sandwitches. The prices are so reasonable for NY. I ordered 2 sandwiches to go, and amazingly, they're so good while we're waiting to board the plane. The sandwiches are big and full of meats, very tasty and filling indeed. On our next visit to NY, definitely will sit down and order something different from sandwiches.

The food is flavorful, fresh, and tastes just like back home. Every time I come, it brings back so many memories. What I love most is that it's not just a quick meal it's an experience. I usually make a whole day out of it: grab my food here, stop by a Puerto Rican bakery for something sweet, and then head over to Toñita's for a cocktail to end the day. The vibe, the food, the nostalgia -- everything is on point. I always leave full, happy, and already planning my next visit. Highly recommend if you want real, authentic flavor.

First the place looks like an old school restaurant some tables, tv nothing which makes it stand out. When you order the food, it is really good, quite delicious and flavorful. We ordered the crab Rangoon which were really good along with the garlic tostone, mofongo and the garlic chicken with rice. The garlic chicken was really good and so was the mofongo. The garlic chicken was flavorful and not greasy. The mofongo had a lot of meat and was well cooked. I enjoyed the food so much and the service was also great. We ordered a couple of different things and I would order everything the same. The staff was also friendly and would check in on us. This place is definitely worth the trip from Harlem to Brooklyn. I am so glad I went. I still think about how delicious the food is.

La Piraña Lechonera is a small food trailer nestled at East 152nd Street and Wales Avenue in the…read moreSouth Bronx, New York. Serving up Puerto Rican cuisine. He is called the Lechon King and is an icon of the South Bronx. It's a place I've kept an eye on for some time, and I finally decided to give it a try. The truck operates only on Saturdays and Sundays, from around noon until six, or sometimes one. When we arrived, a line had already formed, which is a testament to how much people love this spot. Be prepared to wait about 2 hours--it's cash-only--but trust me, the experience is worth it. The most popular dishes are Lechon, Spanish Rice, and Octopus. The wait is long because the owner personally prepares each order, taking the time to chat with customers and even offer tastings. His warm personality and genuine customer service create a welcoming atmosphere. While my daughter and I waited in line, I noticed an older gentleman I'd seen in videos sharing wine with waiting customers. Seeing him there, pouring wine as we waited, made us feel part of a lively, friendly community. I had a cup of wine and couldn't help but feel like I was at a festive gathering. Everyone around us was talking and laughing like old friends, which made the wait more enjoyable than I expected. The owner's passion is evident -- he runs out of Lechon, gets it straight from the street-side oven, and takes time to take pictures, entertain customers, and share samples. I tried the Lechon at least twice before finally receiving my order, and it was well worth the patience. When it was our turn, the owner was still giving samples while he prepared our food. My daughter ordered Lechon and Spanish Rice, while I wanted to try everything. My order included Lechon, Spanish Rice, Octopus, Shrimp, Crabmeat, and garlic sauce. Although I don't eat seafood like shrimp or crabmeat, I was eager to try the Octopus. I ate around the other seafood, savoring each bite. The food was incredibly delicious -- the Lechon had a perfect balance of flavor, and the crispy skin was unforgettable. The plantain was tasty, cooked to perfection, and complemented beautifully by the garlic sauce's punch of flavor. The Octopus, prepared ceviche-style, was a new experience for me, and I'm glad I took the chance -- it was tasty. The rice was good, though I wished there was a bit more -- it seemed like a small portion. I would give this place a five-star rating for the incredible flavor and the warmth of the customer service. While cleanliness isn't perfect, the overall experience is truly heartwarming. If you find yourself there, I believe you'll leave feeling happy and satisfied.

The line felt like a party with the guy on a scooter handing out 190 proof vodka to the guests. When you finally make your way into the truck be prepared to be greeted with warmth and a chunk of lechon right into your hand. Want to try the pulpo (octopus salad)? I hope you washed your hands because he will scoop a sample right into your palm. Chef Jimenez will tell you his life story while waving his machete and smoking a blunt. Nothing seems off limits here because you have somehow, in a matter of minutes, become nothing less than family. At $22 a plate, with rice and peas, a very generous serving of lechon and topped with a green banana, you'll walk away with a full stomach and a warmed heart. The unpredictable nature of this means you can't come wanting to control time or have an efficient food pickup. If you want that go to Cuchifritos in East Harlem. The rice and peas were a little burnt tasting but who cares? It was a party in the middle of the Bronx and more memorable than any food truck I've been to.

The chicken taste ok not too much seasoning, but not bad; thank goodness i had some haitian piklìz (pickled cabbage & carrots in vinegar) to throw on it for some spice and flavor which completed the meal. The chicken empanada taste ok as well nothing special, I truly don't care for it. The Morir soñando is sooo good. Also the portion is not bad for the internet price. Overall I would order from here again, being that they're down the block from me. I've always been skeptical about ordering from the neighborhood Hispanic places but, this one is not bad. I'm hoping they add Chicharrònes to their menu. I will be checking out the rest of them.
