So first the place is a neighborhood place, so it is a simple nostalgic experience. We ordered a couple of things, I got general tso chicken with pork fried rice, my niece ordered a shrimp dish, I also order soup and a house special lo mein. The general tso chicken was really good, it was flavorful and the chicken was crispy. The lo mein was also good. The shrimp dish from my niece was ok but I would not order it again. The soup was also good but I would have liked it with noodles. The service was good, the waiter was attentive and kept checking on us. The place is old style and simple. There were a lot of families there eating. I would definitely one back and try other dishes.

I'm not even sure what kind of meat they used, but it definitely wasn't cubed steak. The pork chops were fried far too hard, the rice started off promising but quickly fell flat, and the beans were just okay--they serve white beans, and I'm used to pink. The alcapurria was passable, but the masa was mediocre and the filling wasn't beef; it tasted more like chicken or turkey. Honestly, disregard this entire review and save yourself the trouble--don't even bother coming to the 116th St. cuchifritos.

The prices are very reasonable and the taste of the food was pretty decent. However, the attraction was lacking. Coca drink: The coconut beverage was cool and refreshing. It was definitely the next best thing to slurping from an actual coconut. Alcapurria: The Alcapurria had equal ratio of meat and fritter filling. Pasteles En Hoja: I have to admit that the artistic look of this meal was not eye catching. The pasteles reminded me of vomit, but tasted like a tamale. Blood Sausage: The blood sausage has a physical resemblance of feces. Identifying one of the meats as "blood" is not the best idea. In the end, it was a sausage link. Surprisingly, all the dishes still tasted decent. Whenever I come across plates that don't look attractive I'll always keep an open mind and will definitely try everything. #alcapurria #pasteles #bloodsausage #cuchifritos #cocodrink
