I had the pleasure of dining at this charming diner recently, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I walked in, the warm and welcoming atmosphere made me feel right at home. The food was simply outstanding; each dish was prepared with care and bursting with flavor. What truly set this diner apart, however, was the exceptional customer service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was nothing short of perfect. Their attentiveness and friendliness made me feel like a valued guest, and I left with a smile on my face, already planning my next visit. If you're looking for delicious food and a delightful dining experience, this diner is an absolute must-visit!
Very loud and echoey.
Asked for an unsweet tea ended up getting a Lipton lemonade tea.
I really wanted to give this place a bad rating cause of obnoxious customers but as soon as the food arrived 5 stars isn't enough.
This is the best Mexican food I've found this far north.
Got the Mexican menu breakfast burrito sub chorizo and bacon.
HOLY COW
Savory, salty, spicy and tasted amazing!
I'll definitely be saving this place and visiting any time I'm in the area.
We are new to CT from Texas and have desperately been looking for a good Mexican eatery. We will happily come back here again! The portions and presentations are great. The quesadillas are packed!! Still looking for that deep pastor flavor we find in Houston but we were not disappointed with our meal, service or atmosphere here.
This is a nice little hidden gem!
It is definitely a good breakfast spot, nice portions, the staff is very nice and friendly, food is served fast and hot and the presentation is also very pretty. The only thing I would change is the home fries they are mushy and I prefer crispy which is obviously personal preference other than that everything is great.
Went back for another breakfast tried the eggs Benedict and they were good! Still the same home fries wish they would change them.
Best services ever. Food is delicious and with innovative presentation. It is family friendly and very clean. If you going into Hartford and want to have a great breakfast do not loose the oportunidad to visit this place.
Best kept secret! This restaurant is everything. The best and most creative menu and most beautiful presentation of food I’ve ever seen. Entire staff is so friendly and accommodating. My family adores this place and we have enjoyed meals here with friends too and everyone always enjoys the experience fully. Our favorites are the Mac and cheese tacos for lunch/dinner and the Mexican Benedict for breakfast. Everything on the menu is so so darn good though.
One of the best hidden gems I've been to in CT! Right away, the staff was so welcoming and was dedicated to giving us a great experience. I started off with the hot chocolate, which was no ordinary diner hot chocolate. This was rich and creamy, with a thick layer of fresh whipped cream. Some of the best hot chocolate I've had so far this season! When our food came out, we were totally blown away by the presentation. They didn't skimp on edible glitter, and the fresh fruit on many of the dishes caused them to pop with color (very insta-worthy ). Everything was so fresh, and I thought that the pancakes were especially delicious! The prices were great for the large portions you receive. I highly recommend making a visit here, and hope to make another visit soon myself!
First time coming to this restaurant and it was great! Amazing food! Huge portions! Great prices. Staff is friendly and attentive . Definitely will be back to this place! Making this one of my go to spots.
