We ordered: Jibarto con Arroz - steak between fried garlicky plantains Papa's Pollo Food was all delicious. Both the rotisserie chicken and steak was well seasoned and tender. Jibarto sandwich was a great combo of fresh and savory flavors and textures. Rice texture and flavor is a tasty side. Employee was very enthusiastic and nice. Good service. I like the family vibe including the people photos on the tables. I'm going to recommend this to my Puerto Rican friends.

One of my fav PR spots in Chicago. It is BYOB so that's freaking awesome. Can be a long wait time but good food takes time. The 2nd shift manager was a total vibe. It was me and 2 friends and we had a little wait, he made the time go by quick. Sweet and funny, would def be back on service alone. They only have pernil on Saturday, it's the special. It was Bomb. It had crispy pieces like I like, no complaints. Yucca was delicious and garlicky. Arroz con gandules had flavor and the pernil was seasoned so well. Also had a mini jibaroto slider. BOMB. Def a spot I'll be returning to in Chicago.

The food is AMAZING!! I literally crave the vegetarian jibarito and have to stop in every 2-3 weeks for my fix. I'm so glad this place is a good 20 minute drive or would eat here WAY too much!! It's absolutely delicious!!

Had the Jibarito sandwich (new food to me). It tasted great! Rice and beans were also good. Very few tables in the place, service was good. It cost a little more than I would have expected, but the cost of restaurant food seems to be going up everywhere, especially in

BEWARE! When I followed the link to their website from Yelp, and then clicked to view their "Restaurant Menu, " my computer locked up and a screen appeared supposedly from Microsoft while a recording started stating that my computer had been compromised! It also stated not to turn off my computer. Well, I immediately turned off my computer and now it seems to work normally. If I do end up having issues because of their website, I'm sure that I can hold them legally liable, whether or not they intentionally did this or if someone hacked their site.

Chicken was a lil dry but delicious none the less. My hubby got the dark meat and his was just perfect. I had the white meat chicken.

This is an authentic Chicago/Puerto Rican experience. The Jubaritos are the best in Chicago and the tomahawk pork chop was amazing. Thanks Papa and family!
