Puerto Rican restaurant · Humboldt Park

"Nellie’s is one of the most welcoming restaurants in Chicago, a Puerto Rican restaurant popular for its breakfast buffet and full espresso bar. Chicago is allegedly the inventor of the jibarito, the Puerto Rican sandwich made with fried plantains instead of bread, giving folks avoiding carbs and gluten a special treat. That was irrelevant to the creation of the dish. It’s delicious. At Nellie’s, they offer a ham version with garlic goodness topped with eggs for the morning crowd." - Ashok Selvam, Eater Staff
