Borinquen - Chicago

Botin Wien is consistent in it's mediocrity. If there was another puerto rica restaurant near me I wouldn't hesitate to try. Flavors are good. Food's a bit too greasy for me. The soup was 80% River. Overall I'll probably order again. Just one of those places that you need to know the right thing to get.

The best food ever! Tasty, seasoned and cooked perfectly. I had the steak sandwich Jibarito with rice and a side order of tostones with garlic sauce. It was all delicious! The space is simple nothing fancy. The service is basic, again nothing fancy. You get what you need but don't expect a lot. The servers are hustling so you have to wave them down for everything. I would come back here for the food all day long.

Just came back from Puerto Rico so decided to try some local PR food. This was ok.

I just ate here and I must say that I was very disappointed. The carne frita was excessively dry. My husband ordered the chuleta plate and they were bland. The rice had the texture of minute rice and it did not have that authentic pr flavor to it. The one thing that they got right were the alcapurrias. Fried to perfection and the flavor was spot on.

Bad experience ? food very salty rice and beans no taste. Jibaritos was ok. I don't recommend at all. I wasted my money. Never again.
