The pork is incredible, definitely worth going for that alone.It's also clearly such an important focal point for people. The line had people. Just hanging out and chatting about. The owner is a character and will wield his machete whilst slowly enjoying a beer and the day as it goes on. Definitely would go back again.

Some of the best food I've ever had. It was my first time and the Angel hooked me up with samples of everything. This is the real deal. Go.

The best Puerto Rican food in the BX. Everything he has is delish. Not one item on the menu will disappoint you.

I was looking for some pasteles And came upon this little spot in the bronx When i tell you this was one of the best experiences The food is to die for The taste the freshness of it all Loved it !!! He give you food to taste Old folks cracking jokes Lovely experience Will definitely be back really soon

WOW!! What an incredible spot. A must-do in New York City. La Piraña is a community institution. Just get lechón, the seafood, and rice and beans. Dump garlic sauce and hot sauce. Maybe some plantains.

Good service had a great time with the owner food was very satisfying seen him on YouTube an on tv on a show had to try him out wasn't disappointed I will definitely be back

If you're a germaphobe, you'll immediately be deterred once you step into the food truck. Locals were inside smoking cigarettes and selling little trinkets (which is common in the 'hood). I actually felt like I was buying food at a newsstand in the train station. Other than that -- I ordered the roast pork and shrimp mofongo. The quality of both was exceptional! The roast pork melts in your mouth and the shrimp mofongo was more flavorful than anything I've ever had in Puerto Rico. The reason for the four stars was the cleanliness, but other than that, it was definitely worth the trip. I'll be back for sure!

This is real Puerto Rican lechon, Some of the very best I have had. Angel is a true gentleman and knows how to take care of his customers, I will definitely be returning on a regular basis ????
