“Visiting from Texas I was excited to find this gem. We ordered the Family Deal and thought it was a great deal! My only observation is that the guy didn’t know what a “marble cut” is. Like, how can you sell bbq and not know what that is. I briefly explained that there two parts to a brisket, the marble cut or the lean.“
“The portly pig came to our town in Coventry for a food event right next to our town hall and it was so good that I went back and bought four more sandwiches to put in the refrigerator. If I remember the sauce that I chose was a sweet barbecue.“
“Born and raised Memphian here, this place is legit. I got the mac n cheese with pulled pork, and it was insane. Glad I have time for a nap afterwards, cause I'm gonna need it. Service and atmosphere was wonderful too, truly felt like I was home.“
“THE best Jamaican food I've had! The staff is quick & friendly & prices are very low ESPECIALLY when you consider the amount of food you get. Try the mac & cheese, it's amazing. They stay open very late tooParking: The parking lot is a bit small but I've never had a problem parking more than a minute walk to the door“

“Been twice so far and can’t wait to come back! Love the sauce bar! We’ve done both bbq and hot pot, both are great. Wish there were some more side dishes but it’s so much food it doesn’t even matter! Also super great fresh kimchi! Great service and they change out the grills regularly which is nice. It’s our new go to restaurant!“
“There are a number of very good restaurants/eateries in Old Wethersfield. Smoked on Main is a gem specializing in BQ and BQ/fusion. It adds a more casual vibe to the area without sacrificing quality. I reviewed the menu before entering and thought I had decided on a very traditional bq meal. But when I saw the specials, my plans went out the window. I chose an order of 2 specials: Turkey empanadas and the beef habanero tacos. Both were presented well and had phenomenal flavor. I don't want to forget to mention that both dishes had a nice kick... not unbearably hot, just a wonderful kick to the taste buds. This place is a great addition to the Old Wethersfield dining scene. There's indoor seating in a very clean and modern interior. This location was the Grange Hall and obviously has gone through a major renovation. There will be outdoor seating once the warmer weather returns. I'll be back.“
“Our servers were terrific. One was in training. A real turnoff, though, was the fact that certain people were not made to pull back their hair. One sat us, playing with her long hair, and the other one went around checking each table to see if we were doing ok. All the other servers, sitters, bar tenders, and bus people did their hair back. These two need to be watched. I'm pretty sure in some states it's part of a law. I would like you to speak to them. Everything else was fine. We will return but next time I will ask to see a manager.“
“Jerk chicken was moist, tender, and bursting with flavor and heat. Perfect amount of spice and generous portion size. Platter included rice with some curry drizzled atop and stewed veggies, all delicious. The owner came by to ask me how I liked it, if the spice level was ok, etc attentive but in a genuine way.No frills counter serve but has everything you need i.e great food.“
“This is our first time eating at Favela Aroma. As we walked in this afternoon for dinner, we were greeted by the nice ,friendly owner. We were happy to see the big selection of food especially the Bbq meats ! Dishes are weighed and you are charged by the weight of food on the plate. We tried the yellow rice, fried yucca, beans, chicken wings, grilled beef and pork ribs. We were pleased with our dinners. The food was delicious and very filling. There is a nice selection of desserts of cakes and flan as well as soft drinks as well . The restaurant is very clean and spacious. You should definitely come here for delicious Brazilian food and the welcoming atmosphere.“
“If I had a rating I would give this two stars. The food and the food options were pretty great. My boyfriend and I just came back from here to celebrate our anniversary. We are simply just so disappointed with the service. I understand we are still in a pandemic and things are tough for restaurants. I am trying to be as honest as I can. The food was really good, the drinks, and the service was fast. However, we cannot say we enjoyed our time there because the service from staff was so poor. We got rushed the entire time. To order, to cook our food, and to even pay. We even had to throw some of our food away because they had turned off our grill before our chicken was fully cooked. Furthermore, this was also our first time with Korean bbq. We both have a lot of respect for the culture, and wanted to know about what we were getting into. There was nothing on the menu indicating what items came with what sides, and no signs indicating. We have had experiences with hot pot that had given a full explanation of how to cook the food, what food was available. We had to ask 3 different times to get an explanation of what we were eating. It wasn’t just one person but at least 2 or 3 interrupting me when I was trying to talk. I’m just very disappointed because I have wanted to come here for a long time and chose to spend my anniversary here to just be disappointed.“
“Maybe it was just the night we visited, but the tacos are different than last year. The vampiro taco last year was a melty, cheesy delicious taco, one of the best I ever had, this year it’s just your standard street taco, not bad just not memorable. No chips, guac, or nachos anymore. I also miss the cocktails on tap. The vibes are still vibing though!“
“Visiting from out of town and after a delicious lunch at Taiwan Night Market decadent to stay with Asian flavors for dinner and stubbles upon VN Pho for dinner. I was skeptical at first stumbling into a shopping center anchored by a Walmart. My husband and I were pleasantly surprised by the friendly service and good meal. Nothing memorable that would prompt us to go out of her way to visit here when we are in town again but it was good.“
