“If you’re looking for Mexican food on the Berlin Turnpike in Newington, you have choices. If you want to sip margaritas out of a fish bowl and guacamole made table side then Puerto Vallarta and Azteca might be for you. If you want fast food from chain restaurants then there’s Chipotle and Moe’s. But if you’re looking for the best authentic Mexican fare the Berlin Turnpike has to offer, look no further the Salsa 4 Taqueria! It’s a hole in wall that you would drive by if you weren’t looking for it. I had beef empanadas, a trio of tacos, el pastor, pork belly, and deep fried shrimp. I’ve never been to Mexico but I imagine this is what I would get on the streets there. Be prepared to wait for your food. Empanadas are made to order and the corn taco shells are pressed and cooked to order with a choice of soft or crunchy! The el pastor was very flavorful, pork belly with a nice char on the outside melts in your mouth, the batter fried shrimp were large and delicious, shredded beef in the empanadas was braised to perfection! Sorry for the lack of pictures, I dug in before it crossed my mind. Yes, it’s that good!”

“Elm Hill Pizza is the best!! I grew up in Newington and now live in Texas. I’ve never found pizza that even comes close to their quality and every Connecticut visit includes Elm Hill Pizza.”

The area is nice.”

“Mango Magic Smoothie was so good.. 🥤”

“Came here 7 am with my father heading to the yard and I gotta say this place is great. It’s a small homy place, I had the cinnamon raisin bagel, with onion chives cream cheese bagel and a powdered jelly donut. The donut we purchased had a fresh and fluffy taste/feel. The bagel was toasted right, and the mocha coffee was tasty as well. A good balance of coffee and sugar!”

“We were on the hunt for a party sized pizza literally LAST MINUTE and a gluten free one. Village not only made it happened within 25 minutes but the food was so delicious! Thank you Village you made many hungry hockey players happy!”

“I can’t believe we waited this long to try Rockin Chicken! It was so delicious! The family meal is priced right for an alternative to a pizza night. My picky 5 year old even cleaned his plate. Bravo 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏”

“When I got to the Starbucks it was very very busy. There were only two baristas working, but it was very obvious that they were very experienced and they had a system going. My order was taken, I got in line to pick it up. I got my frappuccino, iced cherry chai, grilled cheese, & chocolate chip cookie quite quickly considering there were about 6 people ahead of me. Both baristas were very friendly, whilst being efficient. Once I got to my car I tried my frappuccino and I wished I'd tried it in the store so I could have complimented the barista -- it was one of the best fraps I'd had in a while! SO good!
Definitely stopping here next time I'm in town!!!

Vegetarian options: They don't really have a huge selection of food for vegetarians or non-vegetarians... And the food is rather expensive just like the coffee.
It's more like do you want a snack? I think they have a couple things that are vegetarian? I don't know. I'm not vegetarian. They do have nut milks- which I put in my coffee because milk milk is gross.

Parking: No drive through. A little hard to find compared to other Starbucks stores, this one's in a small outdoor mall. The mall is a right angle... with the Starbucks located in the very corner.

Kid-friendliness: Pretty much. There's nothing there to deter children, but there's nothing there to attract them either.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes. It's in an outdoor mall.”

“Great food, friendly servers”

“The kids love the ice cream. Employees are always attentive and the ice cream cakes are really good.”

“This is a small place husband and wife run it with a chef in the back. Customer service was great, and drinks were good. The food was excellent, full of flavor, and perfectly cooked. Family friendly

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes”

“Whether you’re inside or out, the service and staff always know what you’re looking for. If you want that “Cheers” vibe, where everyone knows your name and is happy to see you then I suggest the bar as your local watering hole.”

“price for a orange juice $7.00 Food was very bad.”

“Always great food , you can relax at the bar while waiting for your takeout . Staff is great ,and very friendly !!! I've been in this area for about 10 years now and so far they are the best Chinese food in town .”

“My son and I walked in as they were closing the other day and the owner cooked us up some fried rice and egg rolls even though his chef had already left. Great food and service!”

“I came here for the first time the other day. The staff was pretty nice, she offered some recommendations based on what I like. I don’t remember the name of my smoothie (i think it was tropical something?) but it was pretty good. It didn’t have that starchy taste that some smoothies have. I would come here again.”

“great service, friendly, food was delicious!”

“Solid Subs restaurant! We had the cheesesteak and it had great flavor and the bread was soft and was definitely fresh! Only thing I would change is the Mayo they use but that’s just personal preference. The restaurant is so cute gives off diner vibes.”
