Super friendly service. Nice outdoor seating area. Loads of insects in the area; wear insect spray! I got an alcpapurria and my partner got an empanada. Both were excellent. Fresh. Crispy. I would come back again and again for these. We both also got Bistec sandwiches. The bread was fantastic. The steak wasn't charred enough for my liking. The sandwich had way too much sauce. It was tasty, but I wouldn't run back for this. The portions were huge.

The food is…read moreabsolutely amazing--a true taste of Puerto Rico that nourishes both the body and soul and instantly takes us back home. What truly sets this restaurant apart is their exceptional customer service. We ordered arroz mamposteado without amarillos, and instead of simply removing them, the kitchen went above and beyond and prepared it from scratch to accommodate our request. That level of care and attention is rare to find. Every bite was packed with authentic Puerto Rican flavor, made with love and pride. If you're looking for genuine Puerto Rican cuisine and hospitality that makes you feel like family, La Casa del Jibarito is a must-visit. We can't wait to come back again!

I had a fun, friendly and delicious experience here! I ordered dinner for two to go around 4pm…read morebecause several people we know have recommended this Puerto Rican restaurant. I had actually been here a few weeks back on an early Sunday morning for a lively, free and interesting cars and coffee event. I was looking forward to a full dinner! The place is spotless, has plenty of parking, and excellent engaging service. Gigi helped me order well and I asked her what her favorite appetizer was. Answer... the beef empanada! So, I ordered that too! Omi popped by as well we chatted a bit about the restaurant's origin story. Everything is made to order as this isn't fast food and that is more than fine with me! I relaxed at the bar and informed Gigi I'm not drinking alcohol. She offered a mocktail, of her own invention so I immediately said yes! She whipped up a beautiful drink which was also very tasty! I asked what was in it and I remember pineapple, strawberry and lemon wedges plus some other ingredients that I don't remember. It's stunning so I took a video! I asked what she called it and she explained "Omi's Sunshine Mocktail!" Perfecto! We ate the empanada on the way home and it was large, crunch and tasty! Our entrees, my lechon with salad, yellow rice and pigeon peas was well presented and yummy. I don't know what the sauce was or how it was supposed to be consumed so I just mixed it all together! Worked well for me! I will report later on the mofongo as we are full after a day of free birthday treats! Life is good with a local, excellent, well-respected and for good reason, authentic Puerto Rican restaurant!

I loved the seasoning. Unfortunately my arroz con gandules didn't have that much pigeon peas in it. It was still good though. Hubby had steak & garlic chicken W/ rice & black beans, which he loved! Our friend had a double smash burger, which she liked. Service was good. I would come back here if I lived closer. Unfortunately, we live 45mins away. I recommend everyone try this place! If we do come back, I would love to try their Carne Frita Mofongo.
