Puerto Rican Restaurants near New London, CT

“It's a great experience. The food is the real deal, the sazon is on point and the service is a warning as the food. What can i say pure nostalgic. Proud of my boricua heritage.“

“I took one bite of the Crab Rangoon and immediately called them (I legitimately needed the staff to know how amazing my order was.) I didn't catch the friendly women's name that picked up the phone. I work at a small family owed sandwich shop, BOH and FOH its extremely hard work. So when a customer calls the restaurant regarding their recent order...You're immediately are like...uh oh. She didn't skip a beat, so professional. The Crab Rangoon was out this world, along with the veggie spring rolls. Usually anything fried ends up soggy by the time you eat it. Not at Rico Chow! When I say everything showed up hot, crispy, and not greasy at all...i speak the truth! I also ordered the wonton soup and it's the best I've ever had. Lastly I had the boneless spareribs with the house fried rice, which are also crazy good. Anyone who leaves a negative review for Rico Chow obviously (is a Karen...) and has no idea what food made with love taste like. As you scroll through the reviews almost all are 5 stars. Don't allow people who are a pain in the butt and complain for no reason stop you from trying this gem!!!“

“Wonderful, flavorful dishes and lots of options!“

“ALL THE STARS! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We ordered food for pickup tonight and I could barely make it home without tearing open the bag because it smelled so good. But let me back up, I was greeted by the most friendly folks when I walked in the door who not only had my food packaged and ready to go but chatted with me about ordering options and gave me samples of their drinks, the mango drink is to die for! When I got home I was taken back by how huge the portions are! Our sandwiches were easily the size of two regular portions. We had the Tripleta sandwich and the Cubano sandwich with sides of fries. The pulled pork on the Cubano sandwich was so juicy and tender and the bread was perfectly grilled. We also got a beef and a chicken empanada and they were huge! The sauce was a little spicy for me (I’m a spice wimp) but my husband loved it. I’m so happy I found this place and it is now a local favorite for me.“
