First Puerto Rican restaurant that tastes similar to how my grandma would prepare it. Excellent rice from the texture to the flavor. The chicken was made very well as well as the plantains. I also had an incredible chicken empanada that I would highly recommend! Overall the food came via delivery and was still hot and I was very pleased.

We had a big catering order for about 100 people from El Jibarito and it was amazing!

Everyone raved about the amazing food that was freshly made and delicious. The owners themselves delivered and provided a nicely decorated board with all the items of food on it, they went above and beyond!

They were very sweet and we would order from them again! Muchas Gracias!!

La Verda shows the difference in management. I don't know why they don't put it under new management and sell other types of food because they don't know what Puerto Rican food is. In customer service everything is very good. In terms of atmosphere I give it a 9 out of 10. I hope they can improve. For my part, I won't go for a while since there are restaurants with a better taste of Puerto Rico.
