Today was my first time there and i am so happy i decided to stop! This is the best Spanish food I've been able to find so far in New haven. The women were friendly, and i was even given a tres leche cake that was amazing. Okkkk! Finally! Thank you 🥰
Oh and that honey chicken is definitely on point!

I’m from NYC, Washington heights to be precise and the food here reminds me of home. It’s probably one of the best Spanish food spots in the area. The food is always well seasoned and good.

I went to this establishment 2 times the 1st time I went I got there baked chicken rice and peas and plantains which was so good. The second time I went I got their rice and beans goat meat and plantains again the food was good. My job will also be getting food cater by them and they have some reasonable prices for catering and they deliver. The staff is very and nice and pleasant. They even offer me and my coworker to try some tres leche cake which I’m not a fan of but It...
