I went there with my husband today 3/08/2025 and the food was so delicious. The pasteles were phenomenal. I will be coming here more often. Antonia and her beautiful Mother really put so much love into their cooking that everything is delicious. You feel like you are at home when you are at their restaurant 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷

Absolutely delicious!!! Everything tastes great. La Palma is further away from me than Jibaritos on Harlem but the drive is worth it. This is my new "go to" spot. Give it a try and see for yourself. I'm sure you will be a returning customer as well.

La Palma Express is a hidden gem in Chicago, owned by someone who truly pours her heart and soul into every dish. From the moment you step inside, you’re transported back to your childhood, with the comforting aromas of authentic Puerto Rican cuisine.

The food is simply delicious, capturing the flavors and traditions that make Puerto Rican food so special. We never walks out of her restaurant unsatisfied—each bite is a taste of home.

Whether you’re a regular or it’s your first time, the love and care she puts into every meal will keep you coming back.

Vegetarian options: Puerto Rican rice and beans are prepared without any meat.?

Online said that they close at 4pm, if you go at 3:30 is already close and if you call at 3:30 they don’t answering the phone.

Some of the best Puerto Rican food in the city . Reminds me of the kioskos in Puerto Rico . Tonita is amazing

Very good Puerto Rican food and very generous portions. Just wish they were open more hours.
