Ordered on door dash. Ordered 4 pupusas and a breakfast. Open first container nope not pupusas something chicken that I won't eat. Okay open the breakfast. Menu says comes with rice and beans avocado egg and tortillas.I got eggs, hot dogs plantains, cheese one sliver of avocado and beans. No rice. No tortilla and that isn't even avocado. I call and they don't speak good English and left me on hold. Door dash refunded me all my money and now I have this food that I just don't even want.

I ordered the chilaquiles. The menu specifically states that it comes with rice and beans but I didn’t get any. When I asked for them, they argued with me about the meal not coming with it even though I showed them the menu. They were also mediocre at best. Only Mexican restaurant I’ve ever gotten tacos without a double tortilla. Way overpriced for what they give you.

The order was incomplete and had to fight for the rest. Rude service and super loud music being controlled by an intoxicated person drinking in the corner.

My partner and I stumbled upon this restaurant while we were in Meriden on business. Fortunately, I speak enough Spanish to order our meals. Nobody in the restaurant speaks English.The food was surprisingly delicious and the place was clean and cozy. The slight language barrier should not inhibit anyone from trying this restaurant.

Terrible experience! Walked in to super loud music had to yell to get someone’s attention since no one was up front to greet us! They don’t have everything stated on menu! Went there to get some Mole Poblano & was told by waitress they didn’t have any. Asked for a pineapple Jarritos didn’t have that either. We finally got some drinks they did have & waitress comes out with chips & salsa, chips where stale & cold. So we asked for fresh chips with Guacamole was told that’s all the chips they had. Guacamole looks like pico de galló was just throwing on top & my properly prepared! We get 2 entrees of 3 chicken tacos with rice & refried beans. Rice looked & tasted old & just warmed up & placed on plate, beans tasted burnt & I also found a piece of hair in my beans. Tacos were ok not the best. Overall not appealing at all! Told waitress about my rice & beans & she offered to remake I declined, I told her no it’s ok I no longer want the rice & beans. Was still charged for rice & beans I did not eat! $30 dollars I could of happily spent at a taco truck & gotten better food! Never again & I will not recommend! Just horrible!

The food was more or less, the music was too loud for the space, the service was too poor and there was a lot of talking and hesitation among the employees in a very loud voice that the consumer heard everything they talked about and they didn't even know what was left for them, the miniature tamales and the tea. They give the food and even the cutlery they forget the taste because if you're hungry you leave, it's not a place I would go to again.

If you're looking for authententic Mexican food, you can't get much more authentic than here. I thought i was in Mexico. Decent sauces, great service.

This place is horrible not only did they get me and my coworkers order wrong their meat was overcooked and burnt their rice looks stale and they gave a super small portion. The lady who I spoke to over the phone is very rude and didn’t care I definitely will not be ordering from this place ever again even if I was starving I rather starve then waste money on this garbage then her logic is that there is people who are homeless/starving that would eat it. But I’m not homeless I didn’t pay $20 bucks for this garbage I will be requesting a refund from door dash and never ordering from this place ever again!!!!!
