La Caridad 72 Review - Upper West Side - New York - The Infatuation
"After 52 years in business on 78th Street, the original La Caridad closed during the pandemic and shook the neighborhood to its core. Upper West Side fried pork chop enthusiasts wandered the streets aimlessly, searching for that familiar post-fry glisten. But at La Caridad's reincarnation on 72nd Street, all the greatest hits remain. Come on a weeknight when the idea of making a reservation somewhere feels annoying, and eat steamy plates of shrimp in a sticky-sweet, bright orange devil sauce, stewy beans, and those sparkling pork chops. (Or, take your order to go and just eat on your couch.) In its shiny space, the restaurant has lost a bit of its old-school charm, but the chicharron de pollo is as crispy as ever, and the Upper West Side regulars are back. photo credit: Willa Moore photo credit: Willa Moore photo credit: Sonal Shah" - Willa Moore
