Nice exterior crunch and solid flavor on the filling. My only note is it could have used a touch of salt but I'd definitely order again. Ordered the skirt steak for my main and WOW. Everything on the plate was excellent. Salad was fresh with a delicious balsamic dressing. Potatoes were the perfect combination of crunchy and creamy - the accompanying sauce was flavorful with a hint of spice. Steak was a textbook medium - absolutely delicious. Super impressed by this spot. Highly recommend.

The bacalao croquettes were great too, and a nice deviation from the usual ham offerings. We also got duck which I'm a fan of, but wish it would have been served warmer. Not pictured is the olive oil cake which I definitely recommend for a not too sweet treat to round out dinner. For drinks, I tried the Hugo Spritz which was too sweet for my liking. I was won over by a pear cocktail that seemed quite popular. I don't recall the name, but it should be on your list! Service was as good as it can be in a busy place. Food came out quickly! I loved the diverse communal vibes in here and look forward to visiting again and trying out their calamari and other seafood offerings.

The first time I ordered from here it was a shot in the dark but my food arrived with a sweet, thank you message on the bag and pure magic on the inside. Visiting is always a pleasure as well! Very warm staff who recommended I try their house-made garlic sauce which elevated a dish that already broke the scale. I think I'm ready to put somebody on payroll just so they can fetch this for me on a regular basis since I'm out of range on all delivery apps. I hear they're under new management as of the last year or so and I hope the quality of the food and kindness of the staff still remains. Stopping by will be my first order of business in 2026. **Can somebody local please update with their new phone number, the one listed is no longer accurate**

However, it seems like there was always 1-2 available, so if you're looking to dine in you shouldn't need to wait. We opted to split the chow fan mixto (mixed fried rice) and longaniza mofongo. Both were so good! I typically don't really care for mofongo, but this one was very flavorful and not dry like others I've had. The mixto fried rice was also delicious and they definitely did not skimp on the meats! My friend and I tried our best to eat it all and were still bested. I would order both again. Service was friendly and they have a small discount if you pay in cash. Overall very tasty food that I would venture back up for!

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.

Interior was lovely and colorful, with luxe touches of greenery, as well as flowers. There was also an expansive and beautiful looking upstairs area. I really wanted to try the Picalonga Platter and thankfully was able to find someone to share it with. This was plated impressively, consisting of Longaniza sausage, salami, pork cracklings, fried beef strips, fried cheese, and tostones, topped with pickled red onion and peppers. I enjoyed the Pork Cracklings, Sausage, Fried Cheese. The pork was perfectly crunchy and full of flavor. Sausage was juicy and well seasoned. Fried cheese was satisfyingly crisp. Tostones were just okay. They were not thin enough for my liking, but tasted better with the garlic sauce. I was not a fan of the beef strips, because it was way too tough and wasn't that flavorful. Service was pretty good, but there was some miscommunication on the orders. Overall, the waitress was friendly and did her best. This place served Dominican cuisine, but I found the menu to be very Americanized, so don't think I would return.
