El Jibarito Restaurant

Traditional and delicious Puerto Rican cuisine. A taste of the enchanted island in Minnesota.

If you like to try some puertorican cusian this IS THE PLACE !!!! LOVE IT. I DRIVE from Elk River,MN TO GET MINE Taste budssss!!!! GRACIA!!!!!!!

My husband and I just finished eating here. The food was very tasty and delicious! I had the Beef Arroz con Grandules and my husband had the Pork Arroz con Grandules. My husband is Cuban and we were very happy to see that it was similiar to his parent's dishes.

Good selection of authentic food from my home, Puerto Rico. Downsides are that the restaraunt is small and it doesn 't have a seating for one person (or a couple 's table), so if you go alone or with a couple, you 'll have a 4 or 6 person table. (which is not bad for a lot of people, but I don 't like it. It feels that im consuming too much unnessesary space). The other downside is that their food is sometimes bland, and this is a major crime for me. Being a chef specializing in Seafood and Local Food (PR Food) is dissapointing that the food doesn 't have a lot of flavors lime I know it can be. I LOVE flavor, and even though the menu is true to it 's roots, it really lacks the sazon boricua that I would expect.

Omg so good. Born and raised in NY and this is by far one of the best Puerto Rican restaurants I've been to. My family was with me visiting from NY and also agreed it was one of the best. I'd suggest definitely stopping in and giving this place a shot. I doubt you'll be disappointed.
