Incredible food, lasagna and Pastelon were my favorite. Great selection of Spanish food. Dessert was also amazing, try the Tres Leche cake and the Dulce de Leche Flan. Overall must do if you’re in the New Haven area and want authentic Spanish food for a reasonable price.

This place has gotten much better, honestly i stop going here because i didn't see them take care of the place as far as hygienics, and cleanliness and the food use to be exposed without a glass to cover it from everyone leaning over the food. I didn't like that at all. Plus the fact that they were on social media because someone found something not pleasant at all in their food, so that really turned me away, i just came back to this place a day ago, to see how...

You would have thought I was buying groceries. The food was Hot and Delicious. Everything was steaming as I was trying to sneak a taste before I got home. I almost wanted to go sit in the grave yard to eat but I didn't have anything to drink. ? Don't judge me...I was hungry.
Parking: It's hard to find a park because this place is ALWAYS crowded. YES...the food is THAT KINDA GOOD.???
