I didn't even want to share how amazing it was“

“We had my sister's 30th birthday here. Gustavo the owner let me do a little setup with cake and balloons....he even played the happy birthday song twice.....when she came into the restaurant and when we cut her cake. He was super accommodating and a pleasure to work with. The food was so fresh and tasty! We ordered a seafood Jalea. It was so fresh and crispy! My dad even joked if they had just gotten the fish from the sea? Best fresh seafood dish I've had. We ordered a variety of dishes for a party of ten and everything was delicious. The restaurant was spacious enough that when my kids got a little bored they enjoyed sitting and playing by the nice couches they have. I even had one of my girls fall asleep and the coaches were so convenient! I definitely enjoyed myself here. Had like a nice club setting vibe.....great music and lighting but not so loud, I was still able to have conversation with my family visiting from NY. Usually, I'm very nervous about other guests with 4 little ones....but we all truly enjoyed being at Chifrijos! Great atmosphere ? Sorry we did not take pictures of food because we were truly enjoying it...we were starving and we went straight for the food....no time for pictures ?“

“Being from NY I have very high expectations for spanish food. I moved out here in 2017, and to be honest the food didnt have much flavor. I would get spanish food when we would visit NY. Then we moved to Ansonia and i found Palma, the chicharron de pollo sin juesos with white rice and beans is the best! The cuban sandwhich is so GOOD, and the pernil with arroz con gandules and maduros!. Yes definitely the best ive had here in CT. The staff is also very friendly and its nice and clean as well.“

“I stumbled upon Pura Vida while looking for another establishment. As a Salvadoran-American residing in this area, I miss Salvadoran cuisine. But to my astonishment, Pura Vida has definitely fulfilled that void, especially with the Gallo Pinto dish! I still had room for the delicious Tamal de Cerdo! All washed down with the flavorful mango juice. I can not say enough about this homely, welcoming, very tidy establishment. I wish the owner much success!“

“The food was excellent, the waitress was horrible Forgot to offer us the special. Which I would have preferred instead of standard menu. Didn't ask us if we wanted another drink. Grab husbands plate before he was completely finish and while hand on plate asked if he was done. We were all shocked. We asked for dessert to go she forgot ro give us. We had to ask for it. So all good except our server UGH!“

“This is an amazing restaurant! I had the Sammy Salmon and the food was amazing. Super fresh and seasoned to perfection. The kids meals are also a great portion for kids, my daughter is 8 and wasn’t able to finish her plate. For dessert we had the Tres Leches Cake and it did not disappoint, super moist and just the right amount of sweetness. Definitely recommend for the entire family!“

“Manjares is my favorite New Haven restaurant!“

“Great vibe and environment. Off street parking, indoors or out doirs eatting. They host special occasion parties they were catering an event when we got there . The set up was beautiful. Posting video n planners info. I highly recomend fit Date night, just sit eat and drink, fir relaxation. Great place to have a party. The food is delicious. There is a bar you can also eat at the bar. I recommend try everything on the menue its all great eatting . What ever you choose you wont go wrong.“

“One of Milford's best downtown restaurants. Many tapas and entrees to choose from and don't forget to pay attention to the nightly specials, they are remarkable. Sometimes I go there just for a glass of wine and David's au gratin potatoes- to die for! The outside eating area makes you feel like you are in Barcelona, Portugal or the south of France. Staff is very accommodating, Juan and Meaghan are our favorites!“

“This was my first time ordering. Let me make a huge explosion sound! Why? Because Caridad Fusion blew me away and knocked it clear out of the park! I had Pernil, Rice Beans and chicharrónes It came also with Sweet Plantains a side salad two-liter bottle of soda. Very reasonably priced they use their own delivery which did not charge exurbanite fees. The food was seasoned perfectly and there was enough for four or more people seriously this is the go to spot I will order again. Loved it much love. Fat Bob“
