My order was around 22 dollars but they ripped me off and said it was 29 dollars and when I confronted them, they then said it was 27 dollars. I only went in person to save money from DoorDash but I will be doordashing this restaurant as it has more accurate pricing. Very disappointed as I really do like their food and did not expect this.

The food is amazing, i'm a black man and it was my 3rd time trying their mofongo. I was visiting from PA and had their mofongo and chicken and was thoroughly impressed. Borikken is my go to place for food whenever i'm in the chicago area ??

Really good experience here. Did takeout, got the steak plantain sandwhich, came with rice/bean and I got an Old Colony uva as well.Steak had great flavoring and was cooked well, plantain cooked to perfection to give a light plantain taste and work well as a "bread" for the sandwhich.Also walked away with a Pan De Maiz which was fantastic.Small place but comfy, attached to the BP next door.Staff was very friendly, food was out in less than 5 minutes.Will for-sure return.

The food at this Puerto Rican restaurant is the real deal! Try their mofongo (smashed fried plantains) with steak, as well as the arroz con habichuelas (white rice & beans). This place is really tough to find behind the BP gas station and a liquor store, but don't let the nondescript location dissuade you, since everything here is delicious. Carryout is your best bet.
