[[HIGHLIGHT]]Such pretty decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Pigtastic. Flavor popping.food. Great staff. They helped suggest tasty bites that we'd like. The Chicharon is crispy on the outside and juicy tender flavor on the inside. The picado platter is a must. The empanadas here had filling like no other. Seriously different filling. Chicharon, longanesa sausage, and cheese. Yummy. Yucca fries and sauces good and plantain tostones. The el crunch chili sandwich had great grilled bread and loved the cabbage and a touch of spice. Quality. The mofungo was epic and memorable. Stuffed with meats and covered with mozzarella. All the sauces were perfected. The liquid gold dip for it yummy. The jugo juices outstanding again memorable. The tamarind tasted like a wr rounded pulp. Not too sweet not to tart. As was the chinola passion fruit. I must try the coffee flan next time. 10 out of 10 and thanks for bringing elevated fun food to my old home as old neighborhood.

I wish you both ALL THE BEST AND MUCH SUCCESS!! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR AMAZING WORK AND ATTENTION! The food, the food was very good, everything tasted great specially La Krunchy-Picada! The best combination of the dominican favorite friturass!! The Chicharron was very crunchy and had a very very good taste/favor, the Carne Salada was delishhh, juicy and tender!! Amazing, the Yuca Fries were soooooo good and soft inside and very crispy on the outside!! We also tried the Yummy Tacos and the Krunchy in a Bag! Everything was delicious!!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience and the people there were all soooo lovely, even the customers who walked in to order were nice![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Some regulars and some new just like us!

Stopped by after an event in the area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is small and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got the Krunchy bag which is Doritos with chopped up chicharrones, pico, cream, cheese. Soooo good. The chicharrones were crunchy even with all the toppings and they squeezed the limón on the chicharrones which I love. I also ordered yucca fries but they were not what I was expecting and weren't good in my opinion. However it took the worker a while to come to the front and the service was superrrr slow I'm sure it's because there was only one person cooking everything so they definitely need a second person. My friend got the tacos she said they were good and packed with chicharrones. The food is good but the service not so much.

I was pleasantly surprised by Krunchy Cueritos! I ordered via Grubhub for pickup and the food was ready within the promised time. Upon arriving, the first thing I noticed was that there was no smell of super fried food. That was a good sign! Premises looked clean and the staff was nice. I ordered the yummy pork belly tacos and the "empanadas" with pork belly and cheese. The kind they sell I refer to as "pastelito"... but this tends to be a controversial topic in Latinx communities so I'll leave it at that. The amount of pork in the tacos was unexpected and amazing! Value was A+ for the cost-- $11 for 3. The non-traditional "tortilla" was sturdy so it made for a tougher bite with all of the fixings. I did love that the shell did not disintegrate; the contents were held in nicely. There was a great mix of actual crunchy cueritos aka skin (the best part!) and pork pieces with minimal fat inside. I can't tell you what the orange sauce was, but there was a lot of it and a bunch on the side. Thankfully, it was very mild so I didn't mind it. After eating two tacos and one empanada (the order brought 2 for $4), I was so full I felt defeated. I ended up having the second empanada for dinner and popped in the third taco in the air fryer the next day for lunch and it was as good as new. The second best part is that I had no belly issues after all that pork on pork. That solidified the five star rating for me. I look forward to going back and trying their yuca mash.

La comida es fresca, caliente, excelente, increíble. El servicio es mediocre, pero amable. ¿Por qué, por qué, por mucho tiempo que haga el pedido, mi comida nunca está lista? Veo a otras personas recogiendo pedidos cada vez que vengo aquí. ¿Hay una palabra clave secreta? Es un problema grave porque siempre estoy trabajando cuando vengo aquí. The food is fresh, hot, excellent, amazing. The service is mediocre, but friendly. Why, why, no matter how long I order, my food is never ready? I see other people picking up orders every time I come here. Is there a secret code word? It's a serious problem because I'm always working when I come here. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Restaurant is super attractive clean and busy.I love the decor[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Can't get enough of this place! Today I got some empanadas with pork belly and carnitas. All was superb. Tostones (fried plantain) we're also great. Had to wait a little for my order, because they prep your food fresh and express. Make sure you get their spicy jalapeño sauce... it's amazing! Next time I'll probably call before picking up my food. Go and you won't be disappointed.

I order mash and pork skin and look at this potion‍

Don't order on Uber eats they will delay your order And food will be cold Food is very oily and not fresh you be eating left overs

Este fin de semana estuve en NYC y descubrí Krunchy Cuerito en Washington Heights. Es un verdadero tesoro escondido. Aunque es un hoyo en la pared, está decorado de una manera muy bonita y acogedora. El chicharrón estaba delicioso, crujiente y lleno de sabor. Además, las batatas fritas estaban riquísimas, perfectamente cocinadas y con un sabor increíble. Definitivamente, un lugar que vale la pena visitar para disfrutar de una comida auténtica y sabrosa. ¡Altamente recomendado!

The restaurant is spacious with one sided booths. It did not open at the 12pm time advertised…read moreonline. It opened just after 3 and calling twice. We ordered the appetizer wings (approx 7 wingettes) They were deliciously crunchy with a delicious mango sauce. My daughter ordered the skirt steak. It was bland. I ordered the red snapper $42, very bland. I paid to try the mango sauce and chilli sauce neither helped. The rice and tostones were good. The Alchemist drink was a nice experience and flavorful. Overall the appetizers and drinks were great everything else not so good.

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. From the moment we walked in, the experience was…read moredisappointing. There was no host or hostess present to greet us or manage seating. We stood there confused, eventually trying to find a table ourselves. Since no one was assisting us and there were no open tables available, we sat at the bar. My friend continued waiting and trying to secure a table, but there was no communication from staff. To make matters worse, another group arrived after us and was seated before us. They mentioned they had been there before, and it felt like they were given priority while we were overlooked, despite waiting longer. Service at the bar was equally frustrating. The bartender was inattentive and focused only on certain sections. It took about 10 to 15 minutes just to get a simple glass of wine. We had to repeat our orders multiple times, which should have been a red flag.The appetizer, Korean wings, arrived quickly and was probably the only positive part of the evening. After that, everything went downhill. Our entrees took an extremely long time to arrive. It felt like nearly two hours. When the food finally came out, one of my friends did not receive her meal at all because the bartender forgot to put in her order. This was especially frustrating since we had repeated the order several times. When her dish, the pad Thai, finally arrived about 30 minutes later, it was mediocre at best and slightly cold. The steaks ordered by two of us were dry and under-seasoned. The vegetables were overcooked and bland. Overall, the food quality did not justify the long wait or the price. The bathrooms were another major issue. There was toilet paper on the floor and even period blood visible on the ground. It was unsanitary and honestly shocking. Cleanliness is the bare minimum for any establishment. The final bill came to $245, including an automatic $34 gratuity at the bar. Considering the service we received, this felt completely undeserved. There was no acknowledgment of the forgotten order and no attempt to make things right. As a final note, be cautious if you're wearing delicate or expensive clothing. The bar counter area has rough edges, and one of my friend's jerseys was snagged while we were sitting there. This was my first time here, and it will absolutely be my last. Between the poor service, mediocre food, lack of cleanliness, and high prices, I cannot recommend this place to anyone.

If I'm Uptown on Dyckman late night, this is my go-to spot, no question. When that hunger hits…read moreafter hours, this place delivers every single time. The cheese sticks are a must when you visit. They are perfectly breaded, fried golden, crispy on the outside and melty on the inside. They come out hot, stretchy, and exactly what you want late at night. Their empanadas? Fire. The beef is juicy and packed with flavor, the chicken one is tender and well-seasoned, and that pink sauce... yeah, that sauce is elite. Creamy, tangy, with just enough kick to make you keep dipping until it's gone. I also ordered the chicken cachapa -- soft, slightly sweet corn pancake, stuffed generously and cooked just right. It's comforting, filling, and hits different when you're craving something authentic. Also on a late night on Dyckman, doesn't get better than this. The juices are fresh and refreshing, the perfect balance to everything savory. Service is quick and straight to the point, exactly what you need whether you're grabbing takeout or sliding into one of the small tables to eat in. The spot itself is small and cozy, no-frills, real neighborhood vibes all day. Overall, this is a classic Dyckman late-night Venezuelan staple. Great food, quick service, and flavors that always come through. If you know, you know.

I was scrounging around Uptown hoping to find quality late night eats. Yelp told me the place…read moreacross the street was open, so I made that my destination. Upon arrival, it was not what I thought from reviews and pictures. Las Palmas was also listed as being open late, so I crossed the street to check it out. This was more in line with what I was thinking. Unfortunately, the posted hours are incorrect. Instead of having an hour to sit and be served, I had ten minutes to order take out. The interior was cute and I can imagine people here for a date or eating with the family. I decided to go with tacos. An order of fish and one birria. There are three tacos to an order for $16. I think that may be slightly costlier than nearby establishments, but not by much. I worried about the state my tacos because I had a ways to travel. But my concern was for naught. The bag and food were so considerately packed, nothing spilled. Including the consommé in a cup for the birria. Having the first fish taco, made me instantly decide I want to try this hot and fresh! It has a heaping serving of pico and a slice of avocado on top. My one complaint is that I needed more fish. Not sure if that's an accurate grumble or just me being late night hungry/greedy. I warmed the consommé a little before dipping the tacos. The onion and cilantro taste was perfect. The meat was well seasoned and melty good. Not fatty or tough like other birria I've had. I would absolutely return to this spot and try more of the menu
