“I hate to say I have never had a playa bowl before but so happy I had the chance to try one! Especially after a nice hike, this was the perfect superfood!

I couldn't decide what I wanted, but the employee gave me some good suggestions!

I ended up going with the Nutella the Nutelloco playa which was açaí and coconut base topped with blueberry flax granola, bananas, strawberries, coconut flakes, raw cocoa nibs and Nutella. It's huge! Definitely a meal in itself!

The employees were very friendly. Even with my indecisiveness. The place is pretty chic and relaxing with a nice electric fire place and plenty of seating.

Choose between a bowl, smoothie, coffee, juice or pick from their bottles beverages”

“An absolute gem.

We were greeted, seated, and served in short order, and the food was lovely. A chamming mix of culture and cuisine, classic diner style meets authentic Mexican dishes. A quiet place to eat and Cisco himself stopped by to check in after our meal and introduce himself, even treating myself and my guest to a churro on the house - if that makes my biased, guilty!

I hope to return next time I'm in the area”

“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!”

“large assortment of flavors including seasonal ones.”

“I’ve only had their ice coffee so far but it is absolutely amazing! I have recommended PJ’s Coffee to many of my friends.”

“Food is delicious people are friendly”

“Great energy tea selection, can't decide which is better: Captain America, Sweettart, or the Blue Devil.”

“🍕👍👌🤌................... !”

“Ordered a very last minute sheet cake for a class reunion last weekend and The Kakery provided a beautiful and delicious cake. Everyone loved it!! Thank you so very much for taking my order with such short notice. Kudos to you!!!”

“this has been a great way to keep updated with the on goings in town.”

“We ordered our Thanksgiving Day meal from Italian Gourmet Deli and it was FANTASTIC! We have previously ordered catering from them and have never been disappointed. Their food is always delicious, plentiful and nicely packaged for easily heating it up with the instructions included. The staff is friendly and efficient. Looking forward to seeing their New Year’s Eve menu!”

“The place is amazing!! Never had omelettes like that anywhere. Everything is excellent. And the service was great. You will NOT be disappointed. Great little spot.”

“Great place to eat ice cream with your family ❤️”

“Just had lunch here and it was great. Service was quick and pleasant. I googled for food before I went and saw the poor reviews and figured I had to try myself. Sounds like the changed staff as everything was really good!! I'll be going back:)”

“I've been going to TJ's for a little over a year now and have always had the best service. Their food is always made fresh to order and never disappoints. (The garlic parmesan wings, pizza and shroom burger are my favorites so far). This place has great vibes and I'll continue to visit until I no longer can't.”

“Jai shri Krishna Jail shri Ram Jai shri Hanuman”

“Visited the Middletown ct restaurant. Clean , professional and outstanding southern chicken. The manger was awesome and was very friendly.”

“Mango Magic Smoothie was so good.. 🥤”

“I got mild, my husband got the extra spicy. Very crispy and appropriate level of spiciness for each of us. Fries were good too. The place seemed packed but we were able to find a table to sit at no problem.”

“I have been coming to this store for years and I cannot say enough about the employees and service. I’m always met with a smile and a friendly hello. Employees like Jahzia, Alex, Kylie, Summer, Brittney, Janelle, Ava…they honestly keep me coming back everyday. I do wish there was more seating. This is the best Starbucks in the area, hands down.”

“Bigalow food was outstanding! This place has great food. Great place to watch sports events! Make sure you order some wings and hand cut fries and grab a burger too! You won't be disappointed! Bigalow grill!! Yummy 😋”

“I went there for the first time today,October, 20,2025,for breakfast. I got a Bacon egg and cheese plain bagel with extra bacon,and it was soooo good!! It was fresh ,and heavy!!! Definitely worth the price. I also got a medium coffee with cream and it was very good.Not bitter. And I got a cinnamon roll, which was massively huge, along with a coconut chocolate donut, which was pretty big in itself. But most of all, it was very fresh. I will be going back especially for the breakfast.Sandwich that I got it was very, very good period. A little pricey, but the quality was worth the price.Thank you!!!”

“As a college student it is nice to have a place with such great food and great service right near campus! I go to Salsa Fresca at least 3 times a week, and I am yet to be disappointed. Great food, great workers, great vibes.”

“Stopped into this location with my Son for his birthday today. Kyle was so kind to my son and made sure to make him feel special. More places need supervisors like these who put in the extra effort like this! We couldn't be happier the food was great and fresh! We will absolutely be going back!”

“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 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏”

“Great food and great place to sit and eat great grinders and shells with famous meatballs and sausages. I now live in Pennsylvania and still make the road trip to Steve’s Place in Newington, CT.”

“Great spot to hang out watch a game, have a drink, enjoy time with friends.
There's activities you can enjoy there, like Pool, volley ball and other fun things.

I recomend: The kick'n Bourbon wings”

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

“Delicious! First got one of their waffles at a jazz festival years ago in Hartford and knew I had to go to their restaurant. I’m originally from CT and plead for my mom to bring me here every time I’m home from Boston. Recommend it to all my friends if they’re in CT. I think the Newington location is great. They take credit card now which is nice! The chicken and waffles is all I’ve ever ordered because it’s to die for truly. Get it with the powdered sugar and maple syrup (my mom does without the sugar). The chips are perfectly crispy and so tasty! The chicken is juicy and breaded beautifully and the waffle is the most delicious sweet thing you could ever eat. I always end up having leftovers for later or the next day and it’s just as good cold but easily warmed up.”

“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!”

“good food and faster Service 👍”
