I love this place! It’s a super tasty, filling, and healthy meal. My favorite is the “Dazed & Confused” rice bowl. The mushrooms in the bowl are my favorite part. It’s also a great deal. Highly recommend coming here if you are in the area; I always do when I’m in town.

Delicious! Got the nachos and a 1/4 chicken and that was a lot for two people. Both the garlic aioli and the sriracha aioli were tasty! Wish they had the water cups like the other location.

(moved to main street Newington) Ground Beef Taco and a Sweet Chilli Chicken Taco, I added the Sarachi Aoli sauce, Outstanding!!!! So I went back here yesterday after work, I was craving the awesome tacos I had here originally and after my terrible experience at the Glastonbury location, I needed my El Pollo Guapo fix, and again, a great experience. I got 2 sweet chilli chicken tacos and one ground beef w/ 2 sides of the Sriracha aoli sauce, to go. So yummy!! I spoke with the Manager Charlie, I believe that is his name, sorry if I got it wrong, and he was just a breath of fresh air, very concerned with the satisfaction of the customer, great job Charlie, thank you. Go here people, you will be glad you did!! Last pic is from to go sweet chili chicken I took to go, perfect!! I went back again to the New Newington location and got the “Dan that’s a Spicy Taco”, a Banh Mi Taco and a Ground beef taco. Look at how stuffed they are!! They’re the best. New pics attached.

Blink and you’ll miss this hidden gem on the Berlin Turnpike. Really friendly and fast service. Chicken Empanada is filled to the max with chicken. There are no empty air spaces inside. The Spicy Taco is bursting with flavor. Lots of chicken combined with grilled corn, pickled onions and a spicy slaw makes a perfect taco. The spice/heat level is just right. You can say it leaves your lips tingling for about 5 minutes. They also have a full selection of Hosmer Mountain sodas. This place is fantastic for authentic and fleshly prepared food!

I had a side of sweet plantains today. They were not ripe therefore, they weren’t soft and sweet. Easy fix, just wanted you to know. Be patient with your plantains. Otherwise friendly service and good burrito.
