Elsa La Reina Del Chicharron - BRONX

Reina del Chicharrón truly delivers! This was one of the last dishes my grandmother craved before she passed away. Be sure to take the time to wait for the fresh ones—they're worth it!

The atmosphere is fantastic, and the staff are incredibly friendly. I absolutely love this place!

I had a terrible experience at this restaurant. I ordered chicharrón and, after sitting in the car, discovered that it was mostly fat. When I returned the order, the lady seemed to dismiss me, claiming I had taken longer than ten minutes. In reality, I hadn’t. This restaurant makes plenty of money, so replacing my order shouldn’t have been an issue. I did not come there to buy just fat. I also can’t help but think that if I were Spanish or Dominican, she would have exchanged it for me without hesitation. I understand chicharrón contains some fat, but what I received was overwhelmingly just fat. It was quite disappointing!

Ordered a chicken Pastel en Hoja and it looked pretty big in comparison to tradicional ones. I didn’t ask for price so I do not know how much I paid for this because I had other items. To my surprise it was 70% plantain and 30% chicken, ridiculous there was barely any chicken in there and it had no flavor. This is a disgrace to pastel en hoja lol…chicharrón was really good nonetheless so props on them for that.

Chicharron was overcooked despite of it it was very tasty.
