	Restaurant El Jibarito Overview A Puerto Rican Landmark, Restaurant El Jibarito has been serving authentic "Comida Criolla" (Puerto Rican traditional food) in Old San Juan for over 28 years. The food is very fresh and served by a friendly staff in a setting that feels as if you were eating in the mountain home of Puerto Rico's famed Jibarito farmer. Enjoy excellent Puerto Rican fare such as "Pasteles" a native style tamale filled with either chicken or pork or Mofongo a popular dish made from fried green plantains which is mashed together with broth, garlic, olive oil and pork cracklings. Try your Mofongo filled with shrimp, seafood, chicken or beef... delicious! Other fabulous dishes to savor include a succulent fried Red Snapper, Steak with onions and much more. All dishes can be accompanied with rice and beans, sweet or green fried plantains as well as other local favorites. If you would like to experience a traditional meal as enjoyed during the Christmas Holidays in Puerto Rico, order the special holiday plate which comes with a Pasteles, Arroz con gandules, Lechón (Spit-rosted pork) and sweet fried plantains. End your meal with a decadent Tres Leches (Three Milk Cake) or a tasty Vanilla, Coconut or Cheese Flan (Caramel Custard) and one of the best cups of coffee in San Juan. Opening Times: Daily from 11:00 AM until 9:00 PM

It is so gooood......

Bernadette M. Stepney-Ferguson from Las Vegas, NV

We were looking for a restaurant that had local food, and local man saw us looking around for the restaurant we had heard about, but he directed us to this one. We are so glad that he did. The atmosphere was great, the service was good but the food was WONDERFUL! My husband and I would return here again and we would highly recommend it. Don't forget to try the Mofongo and ASK for the sauce that goes with it. You won't be sorry.

Excellent Puerto Rican Food!

Alfredo Ramos from Teaneck, NJ

Had lunch with my friend today at El Jibarito in Old San Juan. I had the Biftec Ensebollado which is a cube steak with onions. I was blown away by the tenderness of the meat I was able to cut it with a fork. The taste was superb. My friend had chicken in a breadfruit sauce that was also very good. Service was friendly, prices were good and the room was comfortable. I highly recommend this restaurant.
