The business owner should read his bad reviews and learn to accept and make improvements. Instead, he gets offended and bashes his customers. I am not the only person to complain that the food is salty and lacks good taste. The food is awful and so is customer service. I've told my coworkers to save their money and try La Bomba or Ponce instead.

Great service

Food was ok but way overpriced. In chicago you can get a jibarito for the same price with rice. Would have gave it a 5 star if not so expensive .

My jibarito Was so soggy! They didn’t even make an effort to fry it! So disgusting. Couldn’t even eat it. It was all falling apart. Rice was not good. It was cold. And on top of that I was overcharged! No wonder they didn’t give me a receipt. Shame on this place! It was a young guy in there on 5/07/2025 at 1pm.

I placed an online order on Saturday, November 30th, under the impression the restaurant was open (per their website and Google). When I arrived to pick it up, the location was closed. I called and left a message explaining the situation. Despite this, I noticed the charge went through on my account a few days later, moving from “Pending” to “Approved.” I never received a callback or any acknowledgment of the issue. Very disappointing and unprofessional. Do better, Jibarito Time.

Food was very average, the plantains weren't that crispy and the chicken didn't have any seasoning.

I called this place to ask a simple question and the guy that answered told me to call back at 3 cause they were really busy. I was just asking for a price. Really?

We traveled an hour to get food from here, and the food was delicious, and the guy who gave us our food, and attended us was great. I would recommend this place to everyone who wants a taste of authentic Puerto Rican food.
