Huaraches Steak
tom d.

Staff was friendly, waitress had good energy. Cozy place. But food is just like clean and delicious and authentic, so the food is at that 5 level, especially for the price.

Steak Huaraches

Coworkers were looking for a lunch spot and I wanted Mexican so found this place. Fit the bill perfectly. Everyone raved about their food. The huaraches are like a tamale pizza and excellent. Would definitely come back again, just note that it's fairly small inside but looked to be a decent number more seats outside.

Tacos w/chorizo

It does not get any better or more fresh! I am slowly eating my way down the menu. In warmer weather, they have some decent seating outside. Staff is welcoming and know everything that comes out of the kitchen. Great addition to the neighborhood.

Steak tacos

Had a wonderful experience at this establishment! Made a post on Facebook to find out more and received over 130 responses attesting what great food this restaurant had to I decided to take a friend and find out for myself! I ordered steak nachos & my friend ordered a steak fajita. We ate outside on a beautiful evening! Service was great. Food came out hot and cooked perfectly. Steak was great. Moist, seasoned & tender!!! I since then have gone back and gotten tacos. They use quality produce and meat so where some people may think it's alittle expensive for the area I can see you it's not! And those nachos can feed a few people! I ordered them as my meat and could only eat 1/3!!!

The food is delicious! the space is clean and well decorated/furnished. Worth the price for the quality and taste. Would definitely recommend checking this place out.

This quaint little spot was heaven sent! We stopped here after a day at a book con & WOW! This was the highlight of our day in CT. The food is DELICIOUS, the presentation is also great for such a small place. The authenticity is felt in the flavor. It is a very clean eatery & service was top notch. Will definitely visit again & looking forward to visiting their other business in Trumbull.

Carne Asada Plate
Jason P.

How I do find new-to-me restaurants? Many times, I drive 45 minutes from home, and Yelp Search "things to eat" for the "current location". That's how I learned about 5 Star elevated Mexican casual Ay Guey ("AG") AG is in a white house-type structure a bit north of the Stratford plaza with the Home Depot. Although AG is not a fancy restaurant, the atmosphere is a selling point. Lots of natural light and big windows. Cool art and decor. Modern. Well-designed. Open kitchen. Many people got takeout, but I ate there and would love to do so again. Service was very helpful and friendly. AG has tacos, quesadillas, plates, bowls, etc. I ordered a Carne Asada plate, which came with slices of Carne Asada, smooth black beans, rice, avocado, a mild soft white cheese, pico and three fresh tortillas. I enjoyed the complimentary salsa roja and chicharon circles so much, that I asked for salsa with my meal as well. My server leveled up and brought fresh salsa verde and roja in two mugs, housed in a cool little carrying case. Everything about this plate was very good. The steak was lean and tasty. The puréed black beans had a slightly different flavor that I couldn't place, but I liked it. The tortillas were great. The long cheese piece seemed grilled. The rice was good. The avocado was artfully sliced. I loved the salsas. So flavorful and they tied everything together. While I was taking pictures after I ordered, I learned that Yelp had declared that AG had the best Burritos in CT for '22. I immediately regretted not ordering a burrito, but I did what I do. I problem-solved. Burrito to go! I ordered an Al Pastor for myself and a Veggie for my wife. I re-heated my burrito for dinner. This obviously isn't the best way to judge food, but it was full of great ingredients like meaty pork, pineapple, avocado, onions, cheese, etc. It had rice, but it didn't feel like unnecessary filler. Just a bit of complimentary rice. It was very good, and would have been great if I ate it at the restaurant. I predict that Ay Guey will find its way onto a Yelp Top Places to Eat in CT list in the near future. No inside knowledge. Just reading the tea leaves. Five Stars

Chicken nachos

Best food I've had!! Highly recommend. Fast service. Must try if you are near. Every kind of jarrito as well!

Al pastor tacos !!!

Everything is great. I've had the following & enjoyed every bite: al pastor tacos, birria tacos, chicken ceaser salads, steak burrito, chicken chipotle quesadilla & their gauc and chips ( freshhh) Always best to eat your food right away

Shrimp tacos. I was really hungry so I ate one! Comes with 3.

Food and service was great. All the foods my family and I tried here were delicious. The inside of the place was very nice with traditional Mexican theme. Will visit again if I'm in the area.

I'm not gonna make today's review too long today, but I will write what I have time for as I ride…read morethe train. So way back when, I had first seen the place as Roly Poly Doughnuts or something of the sort. Some time in between, Tiffany's Place took over and has been here ever since. It's honestly a place I've been wanting to try at least once back during my overnight misadventures of the 2010's and I'm only just now getting to come here for the first time in 2026. I do notice that the reviews before mine seem to be mixed. People either love it or hate it. I can't say that I love it yet, but I definitely did not hate it. This is definitely more a place I might go if I have to wait longer for the train in between trains ever since I started transferring in Stratford over Bridgeport. Today's order consisted of a Large Hot Cinnamon Mocha and the two donuts you see in the photo attached. Honestly, nothing was bad about my order. The coffee I got was definitely better than that latte I had Ubered from New Canaan last week. As for the donuts, they were good, but they weren't amazing. I do appreciate that my French Cruller had a chocolate frosting on top, but as you can see from the missing icing some of it stuck to the bag. That's why if someone were to bag my donuts I'd prefer a chocolate glaze over any kind of frosting. I like getting the complete item. Speaking of the chocolate glaze, I liked the donut. Again, not a groundbreaking donut by any means, but I would get it again. The price is good too. Ever since the station cafe started doing a $10 card minimum, I stopped going to it because I can't justify paying $10 for a coffee when I need to use cash for other things. Here, I only needed to pay $7.25 for the entire order, and it honestly made more sense for me to order enough to that amount here. The coffee is cheaper too even if you take the $10 minimum argument out entirely. Where coffee was $3.76 at the station, this one was $3.21 before tax. Yeah, if and when the Waterbury branch has difficulties staying on time, I won't mind coming here again to try more things.

I love everything about this place and the owner is the BEST... she runs a great place and is so…read morefun and accommodating. I'm handicapped and the place is extremely accessible. Check it out and it's open early and just steps away from the Stratford train station. She is funny, and sarcastic with her signage! I recommended this gem!
