Overall Thoughts: The food was solid with hearty portions, but the flavors were blander / more mild than expected. Despite having a reservation for Friday brunch, we waited a pretty long time to get seated; the service was very friendly but slow overall. The interior has a nice vibe and feels very h
You can always count on Nellie's for a delicious breakfast/brunch. Whether ordering a la carte or taking advantage of the weekend brunch buffet, the food is always fresh and delicious. My family has been coming here for years. It's our go to for taking out of town visitors.
I went to eat today with my sister and let me just say that the food was delicious. The atmosphere was very homey and not to mention we had the best server (Shirley). She continued to check in and make sure everything was good and made sure we were taken care of. Definitely will be going again.
Nice service and good food. I got there right one they opened so we got a table Right away but I think they need to either expand more or fix the tables set up cause they a had a long waiting I think because not enough tables. I tried the famous coconut oatmeal, taste very good but WAY too small for

Nellie’s is one of my favorite spots in Chicago.
Service is amazing - Alex and Collana (might have butchered the name) were excellent and deserve raises (but all staff, for real).
Come to Nellie’s!!!!
Came for lunch with a friend, and I absolutely loved it! I got the Steak Jibarito (side of Arroz con Gandules) and asked the waitress for a Cola Champagne - which was a fun drink to try as well! Overall, I'm super happy with my experience here - I'll be coming back again!! 😁
1st time coming here. I tried the coqui sandwich came with potatoes on the side. Very delicious! The only reason why I gave it 4 stars was because it took about 35 minutes to get a sandwich and it was not busy. I will definitely come back and try something else and update this review.
My server Shirley was absolutely outstanding! Very friendly and quick. Accommodated to our needs ! very Patient with us! would definitely say one of the best servers i’ve ever received!
Very clean and cute interior. Staff was super friendly and attentive. We went with the buffet for breakfast and it did not disappoint. Everything was hot, fresh and so delicious. Food was authentic in flavors! We loved the food so much we took coconut Oatmeal, Maduros and rice home for the kids. We
Stopped in here to meet with a colleague who grew up in the area and enjoyed our breakfast. Tried the oatmeal as I heard it was good, and it is! Definitely not your instant oats. Curious to try more and I see they have a buffet on the weekends as well. Prices were also low.
What a hidden gem! This place cares about the food they prepare and serving the customers. We will be back.
Great place to eat. Came here on my birthday. Arroz con gandules was great! The server and bartender were very attentive. HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you visit this awesome restaurant for some authentic puertorican food.
Boricua influencer Ivelissa Rios recommended this place and we tried it on a Sunday while visiting Chicago. It met all expectations and more!! The service was super and the food was to die for! My hubby had the Breakfast Buffet and he loved every single option especially the arroz gandules and the o
My bf and I finally stopped inside. We have been ordering from here for years now and woww so much better of course dining in. 😋 always get the yuca fries with their Mayo ketchup. It's sooo good! Food takes a while, but if you eat good food you know it always takes awhile 😉
Found this place when searching for a bite before heading to Garfield Conservatory. Happy we found it. Great Puerto Rican food. Eclectic menu, and the Jibarito is a must. Service, however, is lacking so be sure to be ready to order when first welcomed by server, and you may have to remind them to
The food and the service were honestly amazing.. We are definitely coming back.
