    Let's start off by making it known he is world famous for a reason. The hospitality this man gives…read moreyou and the service is unmatched. He is very energetic and has a very welcoming persona. He has been serving lechon for over 30 years and you can see why it's been a hit. He sells 3 items. Lechon(pork) with rice&beans. Coconut shrimp and chicken empanadas. He gives out samples of all his food so don't be afraid to try it before you buy it. Make sure you have cash and it is a cash only spot. Everything is $20 per plate expect the empanadas I believe those were $3 each. The pork itself was fall off the bone tender. For me I just couldn't eat it all. This was one of those dishes that I got tired of eating. Maybe it was the amount of garlic he adds over it was overwhelming. The shrimp had a great flavor but we're cold. Same with the chicken empanadas. For spending $70 the only item that was hot was the pork. Lechon(pork) 6/10 Shrimp 6/10 Empanadas 6/10

    A truly unique and wild ride. Nothing could have prepared me for the hour plus we spent getting…read moreplates from the infamous Piraña de Lechonara food truck from Chef Jimenez. 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.
