“First time eating Cuban food really enjoyed all the food looking forward to returning”
“Authentic Puerto Rican 🇵🇷 food, I really recommend their lechon jibaritos and alcapurrias 🙌 I also love their shrimp 🍤 and octopus 🐙 salad 🥗 😋 😍”
“I’ve been a fan of Jibaritos y Más for many years now. I first went to the original location on Fullerton back in the day, and later to the Lincoln Park spot before it closed — and the food was always consistently great. The steak jibaritos were packed with flavor and cooked perfectly every time. The habichuelas were rich and comforting, the rice always on point, and the papa rellenos were crispy on the outside and delicious inside. You can really tell the food is made with care and authentic Puerto Rican flavors. It’s one of those places you remember because it never disappoints. If you’re craving real Puerto Rican food done right, this spot has always delivered for me.”
“I ordered this through Door Dash and it was worth the wait. I lived in Puerto Rico 12 years and by far this is the best food since I left the Island and I've have Rican food in NY and NJ. If yall have family in Houston I encourage them to open restaurant there because yall would do good there🫶 Edit to my original post. Im back in Chicago and visited the restaurant this time and placed an order to go and have to say the service was as good as the food its☺️”
“So glad we have a great PR spot on the south side. We’ve been going out to their other spot on the north side for a long time. So happy to not have to drive so far now for same amazing food.”
“Short wait to order….but food came out fast. Everything was delicious! They definitely do not skimp on the lechon, the jibarito was filled!”
“La cajera Nancy no tiene modales. Te trata como si le debieras y te da mala cara. Solo si eres hombre te atiende bien y te dice "Hola mi vida". Tomo mi orden y se tardo 35minutos. Despues entraron 2 clientes mas y a ellos si los atendio rapido. Aparte de eso mi comida tenia un pelo. Primera y ultima vez.”
