Honestly this gotta be the closes u going to get with authentic Mexican food in the Hartford area. Best I had in years. And fresh tortillas.
We got the quesa birria tacos and a steak quesadilla. So good we loved it!! Definitely going back.
Very delicious local Mexican. They have japoneses and all my favourite botanas, and they have great food too. Super authentic and super Rico.
Can't ever go wrong with their breakfast burrito with chorizo! I am deaf and communicate using phone. Always friendly and attentive. Seating is always avaliable to relax and eat in very clean place.
The food was outstanding!!! The woman working was very kind. Lately I’m very choosy about where I spend money and I’m happy to add this place to a very small list of places I can’t wait to return to. We ordered Birra tacos to go but they had a few tables so we sat and ate there. The food was delicious!!!
Homemade tortillas were phenomenal! All the food we tried was great. The woman working was so friendly, service was fast. Must try, will be returning regularly.
Don’t sleep on this hidden gem near the post office in Middletown. The sopes were delicious, packed with flavor and visually appealing with fresh toppings and a side of their homemade hot sauce. The refried beans are black beans and so flavorful! The owners are so polite and hospitable. I bought fresh guava and she explained how to put them in the sun to ripen and make guava water. 3 sopes - $17
It's a Mexican corner store but dude when I tell you the lady can cook, she can cook! So good. Never a bad experience and by far one of the best Mexican restaurants in the whole CT, no cap. Check them out and see for yourself
Place was straight fire. I got the chicken and carnitas tacos and they were awesome. 4 of them cost 16 bucks but I’d say it was still pretty worth it. The meat is tender and the tortilla has a nice corn flavor. I liked that I was given a lot of limes and the hot sauce was ACTUALLY hot and tasted great. The vibe could be better with more seating as there’s only one small table, but I understand there’s not much space and it’s also a little grocery store. Lady at the counter was very nice.
Super 5 stars*****!!!!! Service is exceptionally friendly. Chorizo tacos are fantastic. Al Pastor are great also. The homemade taco shells definitely make a difference. Flan is very authentic and tastes great. Tres Leches cake is so so. Would easily recommend and no doubt go back.
First of all, I want to thank La Placita customer service for always greeting me with a smile. The food on La Placita is outstanding! I’m vegetarian and don’t eat meat and they are always available to customize my orders to not include meat. I just have about a month that I started visiting this place and I love it! I strongly recommend this restaurant! From tortas(sandwich), quesadillas, burritos to tamales everything is delicious. I also buy the Oaxaca string cheese that they use for their corn quesadillas and other recipes, waters(juices made from fresh fruit), fresh mangoes, guavas, and more! If you haven’t order from this place I recommend you give it a try!
We stopped for a quick breakfast. Delicious authentic food. Also its a little grocery store. Very friendly woman who cooks everything from scratch.
