La Isla Cuchifrito 276 East 149th Street, The Bronx, NY 10451

"Today was the first and last time I will be eating from this establishment. I ordered 2 Alcapurria's and they tasted delicious until I almost choked on a twig that was cooked into the Alcapurria! I've got a picture of it! Sad and disappointing!"

"Good latin food, unfortunately they have the same exact food every day. And sometimes is so crowded."

"Food was nothing to be desired. The empanadas were old, fried too hard. Asked for beef, not sure what it was, but it wasn't beef. Tasted like the smell of canned cat food. The potato balls were bland, no flavor at all. Complete waste of money."

"I was actually disappointed after driving thirty minutes to this cuchifrito. I had hoped to grabbed a tasty quick bite to eat while doing a long drive but feed my son and invite my boyfriend to try new foods he never had before. I spent almost $50 on empanadas, relleno de papa, alcapurrias and chicharrón. The food was stale, wasn’t warm and I expected more flavor, it tasted bland. Also my boyfriend bit into a piece of bone that was in the empanada. The relleno de papa barely had meat. The lady seemed impatient and bothered. I don’t normally leave reviews but I know the food could have been better. I’ve had food there once before dining in and the food was good. I would say maybe enjoy the food while dining in."

"Great Latin Puerto Rican and American food. Located on East 149th near Lincoln Hospital and CVS, long lines most of time. The pig is their pleasure from the ears to the feet , including the stomach ( chittlings ) Yes!. The fried pork is my favorite. Oxtails on Saturdays and rice and beans and rotisserie chicken Everyday. Glad they are in my neighbor !"
