Stopped in for lunch. We ordered a steak jibarito, relleno de papa, ground beef empanadas, arroz con gandules and maduros. Everything was delicious! The relleno and empanadas were bursting with flavorful meat. The steak melted your mouth. I highly recommend and can't wait to return! read more

Street Food Kings throw down. Their Puerto Rican is authentic and absolutely delicious. The portion size is huge and so delicious I can't help making a happy plate. All food is made to order so it does take a while for your order to be completed, but the food is well worth the wait. The staff is helpful and approachable. It is a gem in the heart of downtown Elgin. I definitely will continue to order from them. read more

They have about the most authentic tasting PuertoRican food in the Chicagoland area suburbs. A high recommend.

Rice was good skirt steak empanada was really good chicken empanada not so good it tasted like sea food and I'm not a fan of sea food don't understand why the chicken tasted like that but it was nasty to me maybe will return for the steak one but that one wasn't as full as the chicken one. As far as service had to place my own order on a tablet really helped myself read more

I am two friends from Milwaukee ordered food here. We are Puerto Rican. We all agreed that what we were served was substandard. I ordered the jibarito with steak. Plantains were very thin and the steak was very tough and dry. My friends ordered carne frita, rice and empanadas. They were not impressed. I was hoping to give them a good culinary experience without having to drive onto Chicago. I was really hoping for well above average Puerto Rican food. read more

Delicious puertorrican food!! Easy to order and pick up. Lots of flavor de mi isla. El arroz es delicioso, el lechon también. Buen sazon

It's okay food. Nice to have in the burbs as it's a lot of cookie cutter out here. Pretty good rice grandules and decent barbeque chicken. Odd way to order an pickup, but it is what it is read more

The location seems spooky but trust the process because the food is so worth it. The fries have a tasty limey seasoning. Nice juicy steak and the seasoning from the fries harmonized well with those steak pieces. The sauce it comes with is well done too. I think my food was ready in like 14 minutes. My mom said it was the best steak she's ever had. Reasonable pricing for the food portions I ate all of this in one sitting for $17 read more

See all

I was looking for good empanadas and found this on yelp so I decided to go there. First time coming here and I pass by here so many times and never seen something like this. The restaurant which is not really a restaurant more like a warehouse with a little sliding drive thru style window with a strobe light. Not what I expected to see but places like this have the best food. You have to go on their website and look up the menu and you have to place the order online. I went on there site the next day and they have more on their menu now. I recommend ordering your food before thinking of heading out to pick it up. I arrived at 5:10 and placed the order and didn't receive it until 7pm . As soon as you pay for the food you will receive a text message with a estimate how long it will be for food, mine said 5:50pm but then a couple minutes later got another text saying 6:10pm. I arrived back at the time it told me and wasn't ready. I texted the number that it says on the wall and then I received an email. The empanadas we ordered where Caribbean jerk skirt steak and cheese, beef steak and cheese, chicken and cheese, empanada plate with rice and added Mac and cheese because it was the only way to get it added on the order. They didn't have a side of Mac and cheese like the fries and add on's. I also got the same regular empanadas but add the hot sauce to them for an upgrade charge. I will start off with the chicken and cheese with hot sauce was my favorite. The taste was so amazing the empanadas in general the bread part is so good. I wasn't a fan of the beef steak or Caribbean jerk. The rice was good and the Mac and cheese looks so amazing in the pictures but I was really disappointed with the taste. It was nothing special just super bright yellow. I also ordered a jibarito but I order one of the new ones forgot which one because I was looking for lechón didn't want steak but it was just hamburger meat and yellow cheese like a chopped burger. I will try this place out again now that I saw they have a bigger menu and maybe I will do it on a week day not week end. read more

This is going on our list for our favorite spots! I am a garlic lover and they know how to season their food, amazingly! Portions are large and food is delicious. This is the best seasoned steak in Elgin. We had the jumbo jabarito sliders and más lokas, great portions! The boyfriend and I were very happy and full! read more

I've picked up multiple of times! the place is a little sketchy but overall experience was very easy! you order online and pick up at the time it gives you! this place is runner by one individual! I find it funny reading others complaining that food taking to long or whatever, I mean if you order 100$ worth of food in expecting the food to take a little longer than expected! I've met the owner! his name is Denny! cool guy and really enjoys what he's doing! keep up the good work! read more

I would have given it a 5 but prices were really high for me. The empanadas were delicious. You can only order online and pickup at the window.My food was ready at exactly the pickup time I requested. The steak on my husbands jibarito was perfectly cooked. The menu changes daily so I will go back again. read more

Just don't forget to text the business to let him know when you arrive for the food. SO GOOD read more

Delicious food! He has a great modern twist on empanadillas, and I am here for it!

Had a great experience, I got out of work late and they decided to remake my orders, so that it was fresh and warm when I picked it up. I had the empanadas with just meat and cheese. The menu says they're spicy but for my taste or just right. Food is delicious and prices are good. Definitely coming back. read more
