“Couldnt even take pictures because of how fast I ate my food lol. I must say this food is amazing amazing amazing. I went and got fried pork and yellow rice and everything was so flavorful and prepared with angel hands. If I would scale there food on a scale of 1-10 it would break the scale at a billion. Thank you for providing top tier customer service and helping me pick out what I want to eat. God bless!!Parking: Lots of open parkingKid-friendliness: Great place to eat if u wanna enjoy your day outside and with the field right there.“
“This place was great & culturally diverse & welcoming! We went on a quiet night before a show in town, and the variety & uniqueness of the menu was wonderful! My authentic meal was absolutely amazing. We were lucky enough to meet the owner, who was bartending that night, and his wife, the chef. An absolutely must try! Very inviting & unique.“
“After a long day at court for work, I was absolutely famished. Luckily, my coworker had a fantastic idea - why not try this place that's conveniently within walking distance from the Waterbury courthouse? To my pleasant surprise, this Via al Paraiso is quite different from the one I usually go to, which actually has the same owner. While they don't offer the same ready-to-serve hot food options here, they do have a lovely menu to choose from. As soon as we walked in, we were quickly shown to our seats. And because I had a big tote filled with files, we were even given a bigger table just as we had requested. For our meal, we both decided to go with the el meson, and we also couldn't resist ordering a refreshing morir soñando, which is a delightful blend of orange juice and evaporated milk. And let me tell you, both dishes were absolutely scrumptious! I'll definitely be returning to this place the next time I have to be at court. It's a fantastic option for a satisfying meal, and I truly enjoyed my experience here.“
“Well, well, well…Don’t you love it when you’ve discovered a new fave place? This was our first time dining at Puente, and as we tend to do, we TRIED to explore the menu, but there is so much to choose from - fantastic selections because of a varied menu. Firstly, before I get to the food, as a Plant Mama, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the presence of so many houseplants. Just gorgeous, healthy plants that you can tell are loved.We came for happy hour, but tapped into the dinner menu too. Dillon provided excellent service throughout, the wait for our meal components was appropriate, the music was at just the right volume and created the right Latino vibe. We tried sweet fried plantains, yucca fries, guac and salsa, (the chips are fantastic - you know it’s hard to find THE perfect chip!!) the carne asada, red beans and rice, and the Papi Chulo. ??????. Absolutely no room for dessert, which we regret. Sipped on several margaritas between us and I tried the Cocuito-tini - so, so good. We’ll be back soon!“
“I go there mostly everyday I love their food, employees are welcoming and respectful, environment is clean and organized. I met Brenda (owner) for the first time today after going for so long she was nice she asked me and my sister how was everything if anything else was needed as soon as she walked through the door, very positive environment and all their food I have ordered has been good no complains, will definitely recommend and will continue going to their restaurant.“
“Had the chicken flautas.. excellent. Chicken tamale excellent. Birria tacos were delicious. The beef burrito had mostly rice....very skimpy on the meat for the price. Salsas were so good!! Maybe put a little more protein in the burritos, but overall very tasty and well balanced. Tasted very authentic....“
“It was excellent. As a non Waterbury native I stopped in and was a little overwhelmed by the options. One of the employees gave me the rundown on what to get, explained options and pricing. Super pleased with the service and food. Will go back next time I’m in the area.“
“This is the most wonderful place. We were on an Adventure and needed sustenance and happened to see it. But it was so wonderful I could imagine making the diner the destination. In fact, I wish I could hop over right now for the soursop batido, which I got without milk and was super refreshing on a very hot day. Whether you want Greek, Ecuadoran, or American cuisine, you will find an extensive array of tasty, large-portioned meals at remarkable prices and a very friendly family to assist you.Hurray for Thomaston Family Diner!“
“Taquitos are delicious and 4/10.00! Skip the beans (no flavor) and the cheese enchilada. Opt for the chicken chimichanga and tostada instead. Coconut flan is so good! The piña loca comes in an entire pineapple. Where else are you gonna get that in this town?Vegetarian options: Just ask them to make substitutions and you'll enjoy most dishes.“
“Food here is amazing. Location not so much as there are always bums, drinks and druggies hanging around looking for money. Other than the derelict location the food is worth the hassle. Best Típico Dominican style food around and very affordable for the quantity and quality.If you are looking for a good bite to eat, order to go and you can eat in peace otherwise this place is always busy.“
“I love Latin Cravings. The food is so good, and the prices are reasonable. The chicharrón is amazing and the yuca is so tender. The arroz como gandules is worth every cent. Please come eat here if you want authentic Spanish food. I know the hours are nutty but it’s worth the drive and money when they are open.“
