"I'll definitely come back for seconds, I had the Smoked Jerk Brisket 1/2 LB and the Large Sweet & Spicy Smoky Baked Beans and they SLAPPED! The flavors are just perfect and the serving is good enough for 2 meals or sharing if you're into that"
"Jerk was my go to spot but lately portions have been wildly inconsistent and the quality/care seems to have gone out the window. Grilled Jerk Chicken Thigh Combo used to have at least 8oz of chicken and a generous helping of rice, now it seems to be closed to 4-5oz and a small spoonful of rice. Not the value it once was. The Smoked Jerk Pork 1/2 LB was drier than shoe leather, cannot believe someone saw that and thought serving that was a good decision. Sweet Plantains continue to be dry and portion size has also gotten smaller."

"This was my first try with african cuisine, and Im so glad I picked this place. The Spinach & Egusi Stew was special with lots of flavor. I ordered with chicken, I received two large drumsticks, they were juicy, fried (not breaded) and it added such a nice crisp and char to the dish. Also a good amount of spice! but it wasnt too much spice for me and im usually a mild spice person. Would reccommend to anyone curious about egusi"

"The PABELLON AREPAS were outstanding. I chose beef brisket and the juicy flavor with salty cheese and airy inner and crispy outer texture of the arepa was fantastic. The flan was smaller than I thought it would be, but delicious. The SANCOCHO CRUZAO CHICKEN & BEEF
soup broth was really good, as well as the texture of the potatoes. I wish there would have been more carrot. The soup included a nice size square of beef and a bone-in chicken leg, as well as a delicious square of corn on the cob. It was good, though not my favorite."
"My first experience with El Rincón and they did not disappoint !
The AREPITAS with brisket were so tender and cute. The CACHAPA also with brisket was a meat treat in a pancake/crepe! Very flavorful.
I highly recommend checking El Rincón out. I know I'll be going there and bringing friends with me!"

Rice was ok not the best but decent. Portions are definitely huge however if the food is flavorless.

But the Seafood Gumbo was produced mostly of bisque, can identify the chicken barely (which I didn't come for) I wanted to taste shrimp which appears missing/ lacking. I ordered two. The first I deemed a fluke, but back to back is certainly intentional. I would not recommend the gumbo if they remain stingy with the seafood and flavor. I have video footage if requested."

"I would order it again and the taste was phenomenal my palette was in disbelief because I just wanted to try it and I was blown away. The portion was decent and the food is fresh and the corn beard was so juicy and not dry. I would give the restaurant a 9/10"
"The southern fried Southern Fried Chicken was just OK. You get one side for the price of the chicken inside, but I wanted to sample several other sides so I had the collard greens, mac and cheese & candied yams. Plus Peach Cobbler.
The greens were too salty and no other flavor to them.  The macaroni and cheese was bland and reminded me of two steps above a Velveeta macaroni and cheese..  the yams were really good and just out of a swest with maybe cinnamon & brown sugar.
Peach Cobbler was really tasty. Buttery crust.
All of this food is over priced to be basic. The portions were HUGE; but who cares if it doesn't taste great.
I just want soul food to be AMAZING. This place is about vibes & fleecing its clientele."

"JIBARITOS IS FIRE! The empanadas are crispy, fresh, and full of flavor, and the Cubano sandwich is pressed to perfection—warm, savory, and so satisfying. The bistec encebollado is tender and packed with rich, comforting flavor, while the pollo frito is crispy, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. And the yuca rellena? So good—crispy on the outside with that soft, flavorful filling inside.
Everything tastes authentic and made with love. Definitely one of my go-to spots when I’m craving good Cuban food"

The mashed yautia, guava spread, pork absolutely delicious and their pork sandwich is the best I ever had. The service, staff and owner so pleasant and accommodating. It is a hidden gem in Uptown with one of the best PuertoRican cuisines in Chicago! Thank you!!!"

"Really solid Nigerian food. The whipped okra soup was flavorful with fresh fish and good spice level. The dark fufu was smooth, sticky, and not too sour — perfect texture. Portions were generous and the food tasted authentic and homemade. Definitely one of the better African food spots I’ve tried on the road."
"This was my first time trying whipped okra stew. I must say I'm absolutely hooked!! My daughter and I found out about Nigerian Kitchen two years ago while walking through the Uptown area. My daughter tried the egusi and I had the goat pepper soup as well as their pounded yam. We knew then, that we would be "Forever customers". They are consistent in proportion, attention to detail and service. I enjoy the authentic flavor and the love put in every dish!! I thank you for talking with me about my order and making sure it was so delectable!! I ordered fish and goat with my whipped okra. The goat was tender and the fish was cooked just right. This dish has a slight kick, (I love heat) but it goes great with the pounded yam.. Chef's Kiss!! I will be back at the end of the week!!"

"Caldo de Pata the meat is chewy I seriously thought I was chewing gum,like it wasn't cooked all the way. The vegetables are rawish, and salty.Usually this soup is done well hence why constantly buy it sometimes 2 orders ate a time,however today, it's not great.

"Some fried Chicken with diri djondjon so good. Well prepared plantains and pikliz were so spicy and delicious. With a nice cold Jupina. A great meal for a great value and lots of food for the price. "
"If you are looking for authentic, soul-warming Haitian cuisine, Kizin Creole absolutely delivers. I recently ordered their traditional Griyo plate, and the entire meal was nothing short of phenomenal.
The Highlights:
The Griyo (Fried Pork): The absolute star of the show. The pork chunks were clearly marinated deeply in traditional epis (Haitian seasoning), cooked until incredibly tender, and then fried to a perfect golden-brown crisp. It had that ideal textural balance—a satisfying, savory crunch on the outside while remaining juicy and melt-in-your-mouth tender on the inside.
The Pikliz: You cannot have Griyo without pikliz, and Kizin Creole’s version hits all the right notes. The spicy, acidic crunch of the pickled cabbage, carrots, and scotch bonnet peppers cut perfectly through the richness of the fried pork, providing a beautiful, fiery kick.
The Sides: The plate was generously rounded out with perfectly pressed banann peze (fried plantains) that were crispy on the edges and soft in the middle. Paired with a deeply flavorful and comforting serving of traditional rice and beans, it tied the whole dish together.
The Verdict:
The portion sizes are generous, the flavors are complex and deeply traditional, and the food feels like it was made with love. Whether you are a long-time fan of Haitian food or trying it for the very first time, the Griyo plate at Kizin Creole is an absolute must-order. Highly recommended"
Griyo
"Succulent, slow-cooked goat prepared two ways: tender and flavorful as taso or rich and hearty in a spicy Creole sauce. Known as Taso Kabrit, this dish is a local favorite in Haiti and the manager’s top recommendation."

"Relleno de Mofongo pork inside is very tasty😋"
"Secondly we ordered a mofongo w the cheese sauce and carne frita w extra carne and specifically put NO LETTUCE due to the viruses going around on lettuce. The food... served on a bed of lettuce and no cheese sauce which we paid extra for. The carne was tough and there were tons of pieces that were mostly bones.
We also ordered a jibarito w arroz con gondules. The jibarito was borderline burnt but still floppy and soggy. The rice had good flavor but then I bit into a bone in the rice.
We also ordered tostones which were absolutely burnt to hell and also soggy and cold.
