"After outgrowing their extremely popular food truck The Jibarito Stop opened a brick and mortar in Pilsen in 2015. Their specialty, the jibarito, comes in four varieties: steak, slow-roasted lechón, vegetarian, and vegan. Their jibaritos also come in convenient half sizes, so you can try as many as possible. The woman-owned business also serves piñon, a sweet and savory Puerto Rican-style casserole, vegan potato salad, vegan beans, and a brightly flavored mango coconut salad topped with cilantro and tamarind dressing. The seating at the front of the restaurant gives you a raised view of the 18th street “L” that elevates (pun intended) the whole dining experience. " - jessica rome
