We were craving some fresh, good, well cooked chicharron and I was recommended to come here, so we did... Let me tell you, it was the best chicharron (pork belly) I have had!!! It was freshly made, flavorful but not overly salty or flavorful, perfect combination of crispy and soft at the same time. We tried almost everything on the menu, we had *La Krunchy - Picada!*, *Duo Krunchy Empanadas*, *Krunchy in a Bag!*, and the *Yummy Tacos* and some different flavors of natural juice. Everything was SOO GOOD!! Food was cooked to perfection and so mouthwatering. My favorite were Krunchy Picada and those delicious fully filled empanadas. The best part about our visit was definitely the service!! I sadly forgot the names of the gentleman and lady who provided the greatest sweetest service to us but they definitely made our visit extra special and memorable. My twin sister was 7 months pregnant with my twin nephews and they noticed when we arrived and sat down, unfortunately we didn't realize we had to go to the counter to order until we saw the huge line, and we just sitting down for over 10 minutes discussing the menu, by the time we ordered we had a bunch of orders ahead but people that came after us, they were so kind to prioritize and rush our order without us even asking or knowing because they noticed when we came and noticed my sister was super pregnant. We were so grateful and appreciated the kind gesture a lot!!! This place was cool and very casual, there was music playing and everyone walking in was so nice! Cant wait to be back!!! read more

Such pretty decor. 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. read more

Stopped by after an event in the area. The place is small and clean. 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. read more

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. read more

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. Restaurant is super attractive clean and busy.I love the decor read more

while visiting the neighborhood, i remember seeing this place on IG, had a hard time finding it, very small location, almost reminded me of a Chinese takeout, but smaller. when i walked in has like one table, one high top and a few stools.... Anyway, i think i had high expectations, and i was slightly disappointed. When i walk in the staff is behind bullet proof glass (empanadas must be a high-ticket item) lol. Very small menu which is good...So i placed an order of the Chicharon empanadas, they are freshly fried when ordered. When i got my order, i thought i was getting "PUNKED", they were mini and when i say mini, i mean mini!! the filling was ok, it had a lot of fat, and the dough wrapper was ok. so would i come again??, probably not. So, if you are really hungry, give it a pass. Too many good spots in the heights, to focus on this one. Anyway, wish you guys the best of luck!! read more

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. read more

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! read more

Food was not great besides the fact that I ordered online for 12:15 pick up when I got there I was told they open at 12 and would have to wait 30 minutes which ended up being like an hour. Not going back there again. No customer service and rude. Adjust your ordering time so people could place an order to pick up when ready read more

Checked out this spot with my wife earlier today. I was blown away because I was just saying the other day that I have not had a valid monfongo in a while. The mofongo that I have been craving was one with a deep yet balance taste of garlic, crunchy chicharon and delicious shredded pork in the inside. I got just that and more ! The platanos were smashed to perfection and perfectly seasoned. The garlic was perfect ; the crunch of the chicarrón was magical as well! Did I mention that it also had longaniza on the inside? And that it was topped with delicious good quality melted mozzarella? The mofongo was also served with a "Dominican" pico de Gallo with Green and Red Peppers instead of tomatos and it was the perfect hint of freshness to go along side the very hearty and rich mofongo. We also had the chicharon empanadas with cheese. Flavorful pork and quality cheese. What is took the experience over the top was the service ! The young lady who took care of us was beyond hospitable. She was attentive and ensured that we enjoyed our stay. They also take cards and Apple Pay another huge plus! Small place, but highly recommended! read more

So good... the pork belly was so crunchy and fatty... the sauce works so well with the pork belly

I came from far to come try out their empanadas mind you it was right when they opened and I know things go a bit slow when a business opens. They told me that they didn't have any empanadas prepared that it would take 30min if I wanted to wait. I said ok because I came for them. Instead of preparing my order the lady proceeds to fill empanadas for the day and I am still waiting here 50 min later and I still don't have empanadas. These might be great empanadas idk because I haven't received my order yet but customer service and the business being prepared to receive customers really lacks. read more
