    Unseasoned chicken

    The food was fresh, But the hot sauce wasn't very spicy and the chicken in the tacos had no seasoning at all. Like none. It's just white. Also tastes like it may have been frozen.

    Steak and shrimp fajitas

    After leaving the dive bar next door I stumbled upon this amazing place. Authentic Mexican food and amazing customer service. Try the hot sauces.

    Tacos Al pastor

    The best burrito in Wallingford!!! Very clean inside and charming decor. The owner is very nice.

    paid $14 for two small esquites- or so i thought... this was really soupy and watery. esquite should be creamy. 2/10 :/ not worth it.

    Brought back memories for me. Use to live in Cali and guys would sell these from a shopping cart. Mexican street corn mmmmmmMm

    It's like a super cute hole in the wall kinda place. But they had everything! Hershey's ice cream, a ton of fresh fruits! They also do like and edible arrangement thing there too, which is kinda cool. A pretty large food menu! I would come back. The server was super nice and the food came out pretty quickly.

    Homemade tortilla chips for each order

    Authentic, homemade and seasoned perfectly!! I ordered steak tacos, Al Pastor and Pollo burritos - and had it delivered to my office for a straight drive home for dinner. The gentleman that took my order on the phone and who also delivered them does not speak much English, so he asked me to text the address for the delivery. For confirmation, I also texted my order and the total amount that I was quoted ($28 for all, inclusive of any delivery charge). Note: the minimum order for delivery is $25. The steak tacos was perfect, and came with fresh radishes and limes. The steak was cut in very small pieces and the soft taco shells were homemade. The burritos were delish - both came with Mexican rice (in the burrito ) which was just lightly seasoned. There were homemade tortilla chips with both red and green sauces. My family was very pleased with the food, we will be back!!!

    Tacos dorados de pollo ...comes with rice and beans but I opted out on the extra carbs.

    The food was severely lacking in flavor. The melted cheese was a hard blob that had to cut with a knife. Overall just really bad.

    I got the scoop on the new ice cream shop in town, please welcome, Scoopy's, to Wallingford! This…read moreshop has a lot of options from hard ice scream, sundaes, flights, Italian ice, and treats for the fur-kids. They have a long list of ice cream flavors from their specialty cannoli, cake batter, cotton candy, black raspberry and more. The also have a ton of toppings and sauces. I got a chocolate dipped waffle cone with a scoop of blueberry swirl and coconut. The shop is very large with two fun photo op walls. All the toppings are on display at the counter. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. There are many picnic tables outside to enjoy your ice cream. I also thought the trash can painted like an ice cream cone was a great touch. I will be coming back again because I'd love to try their Neil's Donut Sundae. Neil's Donuts is right up the street.

    If you're looking for a cute ice cream spot, this is it! When you walk in, it's a large place (much…read morelarger than it appears outside) with plenty of seating. The walls are painted in a cute ice cream sunday theme that I love. There are dozens of flavors and mixing options, and the staff is friendly and patient. The ice cream is creamy and richly flavored with large servings, so you get your money's worth. The only (minor) disappointment was it was quite cold in side. It was a cold and rainy day when I stopped in, but I still sat with my coat on the whole time because it was not warm inside.

    THE GOOD ----------------…read more+ Possibly the best ice cream I've everrrr, everrrr had! ++++ Almond with Toasted Coconuts and Sweet Cream with Dark Chocolate Chips - Sooooooo goood and soooo creamy smooth and solid. Loved both flavors, but the Almond with Toasted Coconuts really stole my heart...and tastebuds. One of the best flavors of ice cream I've ever had...period! ++++ Strawberry and Cranberry with Dark Chocolate Chunk - Once again, so creamy for ice cream. These fruity flavors were phenomenal! Not too sweet and so natural tasting. No "artifical-ness" whatsoever. Being the hugely obsessive strawberry ice cream fanatic that I consider myself to be, this might have been the best strawberry ice cream I've ever tasted. + Menu consist of some very delicious-sounding and interesting flavors, including the Almond and Sweet Cream ones mentioned above, Pumpkin with Ginger Molasses and Eggnog. + Two employees were very friendly, engaging and informative about the most popular flavors. + Taste-testing is certainly allowed. + Two benches for customers to sit on inside, but there is plenty of standing room to walk around and admire the farm cow photos on the wall. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Like most ice cream shops, there was no restroom available for customers, so make sure to empty those tanks below the belt before arriving. MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = Nada. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Even on a chilly March Saturday evening at around 6 PM, there were PLENTY of folks willing to freeze their tastebuds off here, so that tells you enough about how good the ice cream is here. = Conveniently located right around the corner from the Yale University campus, so you can enjoy your delicious ice cream with some of the world's brightest minds in your company. = According to their story, all of the ice cream served here is naturally produced from the milk of some of their 300 cows, which are housed at Arethusa Farm near Litchfield, CT, hence why their ice cream is so naturally smoooooooth and refreshing and doesn't have a hint of artificial taste in them. Nuff' said!
