I ordered takeout today (Friday) at 4:45pm for an early dinner. I called and ordered over the…read morephone, and was told the order would be ready for pickup in 15 minutes. Steak burrito: this was my favorite. It was filled with steak, rice, beans and pico. This was shared with another person. Guacamole with chips: this was good, as well. I ended up adding more lime that came with the tacos. Steak taco: it was good, but dry. I added guacamole to it. Shrimp taco: the shrimp was nice and juicy and there was a spicy sauce on it. Flan: I really liked this flan compared to some other local places. It was very smooth and creamy. Churros: basic churros, but it didn't come with anything. It didn't say it came with a dipping sauce, but I expected some - but that's my bad. I personally did not pick up the order, so cannot comment on the space, but I am familiar with the location. It's in a small strip mall.

And frankly more of everything without the tortilla. For those so inclined, a Dispensary is in the same plaza. No alcohol, may be able to BYOB, call ahead.

A quick google search brought up Yelps top ten Diners in Meriden and what brought my attention to Huxley's was how open and spacious the layout was in the pictures. So glad we choose to try it out... Jamie was an incredible waitress from beginning to end. We had questions from the menu because it was our first time and we wanted to make some substitutions. Not a problem and every thing was right! Not only were our orders exactly how we imagined them, the food came out before we knew it! We made a joke while eating that we would've still been waiting if we had gone anywhere else. Extra lemons for our waters and hot fresh coffee when we ran out, Jamie was truly aware of not only us but her other guests needs as well. The menu had us deep in thought because we wanted to try everything. We love a good omelette so I knew either way we were ordering one. Made to order and it was exactly what my girlfriend was craving. The fried egg sandwich with ham and bacon on a roll was on point with delicious freshly made home fries. French toast was made to perfection for us to share so we could get a little bit of everything. This was truly an incredible experience that we'll not only be back again for ourselves but when we have family visiting and need somewhere accommodating for larger parties. Not only do they have the space with large booths, Huxley's provides a great experience which is hard to come by. Come by and check them out!!

Outstanding Experience at Taíno Prime…read more Taíno Prime delivers excellence on every level. The service was outstanding and the food was absolutely excellent--flavorful, beautifully prepared, and consistently impressive. The location is also a huge plus, with easy access from all parts of Connecticut. They are especially wonderful to work with for events--professional, flexible, and truly accommodating. Lisa, the banquet manager, personally called to discuss event details and provided truly upscale, attentive service, making the entire process seamless and stress-free. A special shout-out as well to Chris, the owner, for running such a top-notch establishment. Highly recommend Taíno Prime for both dining and special events.

It was good, I just wish I knew it was a cold salsa We got the two meat platter with ribs and pulled pork 2 sides; Mac and cheese with mash potato's and cornbread. The meat was fall off the bone and so tender and juicy We got some cider on tap and the euphoric margarita, which has cucumber and jalapeño. A cool and spicy combo. Jenna was the bartender, great conversation

I previously would've rated this place a 4-5 but lately we have had some disappointing visits and I…read morewas surprised I hadn't left a review previously. The good- their lomo Saltado and chaufa are spot on and delicious. Their pollo ala brasa is my kids favorite and we regularly order it on Wednesdays when they do their special. Everyone is very friendly but all don't speak English great (luckily my husband is Spanish so we always manage). We have been longtime customers- back to when they were under a different name (flavor point) and across the other side of Meriden. The cons- prices have gone up and portions seem much smaller. My lomo last time barely had any steak. The last time we went for 2 adults and 2 kids (one who only ate a side of rice) it was well over $100 before tip- no apps just meals and 2 drinks. There is no kids menu and nothing they can do to accommodate so you are buying your 2-5 year old a $20 meal they will eat a few bites of . Their pollo ala brasa is not always available- which I get but weekends I feel like it should be and we have gone twice now and had it be unavailable. my son will literally not eat anything else on the menu (as noted no kids options either). He had to sit there and not eat while we ate and get him food from across the way afterwards. One time we got the ceviche and I know the lime juice cooks the fish (believe me I eat ceviche regularly as well as sushi) and this fish was raw. I mentioned it to the waitress and she said it was fine. I couldn't eat it. But still had to pay for the dish which is high priced for the small serving. Cute atmosphere but small so can fill up quickly. Careful in bathroom , had gone a few times and almost fell from slick floor. It was clean but slick- maybe what they're using to clean it.

I am all in on Lima 32 Peruvian restaurant. Back in January, I noticed the Lima 32 sign in the old…read moreTacos mi Nachos space in Meriden. Something about the sign aesthetic made me think it would be a good place. I Yelp-Searched it, and Lima 32 damn near had a perfect rating based on less than 50 reviews. I'm a Food Blogger. So I try to explore new places and avoid repeating spots I know. I've eaten at Lima 32 three times since January. Lima 32 is a small casual Peruvian spot located in a very small plaza in Meriden. Parking is tough, but they've done a nice job with the aesthetics inside. Lima 32 is also available on DoorDash within a certain area. I've now had the Lomo Saltado, the Arroz Con Marisco and the Chaufa de Pollo. Best Lomo Saltado I've ever had, and I've had a really expensive one at a famous CT spot. It's basically a beef and veggie stir fry. You can see the chef making it with fire in the pan if you have the right seat. The soy and oyster sauce based glaze is good salty. So flavorful and everything is perfectly cooked. Best Arroz Con Marisco I've ever had. It's a saucy Peruvian paella. The sauce (Aji Amarillo) has a well rounded creamy pepper flavor. The seafood, like crab, mussels and shrimp really stand out. I suspect the seafood varies depending on what's available. The Chaufa de Pollo, a Chinese fried rice style dish, was very good too. Huge pieces of chicken. Eat it with the delicious Aji Verde sauce. Is Lima 32 hidden? I don't know. But it sure the hell is a gem. It's must visit. 5 Stars

Just finished a full Philly cheesesteak and it definitely hit the spot. I went with onions,…read morepeppers, cherry peppers, and light mayo--the flavors were spot on. The Highlights: * Proportions: Excellent meat-to-topping ratio. They don't skimp on the steak, which is always the biggest test. * Flavor: The cherry peppers added a great kick that cut through the richness of the meat and mayo perfectly. * Quality: A really solid, hearty sandwich that feels worth the order. One Small Note: The full sub comes as one continuous sandwich. If you're looking to split it or just prefer smaller halves, you'll want to grab a knife or ask them to slice it for you, as mine came uncut. Overall, a great lunch spot if you're craving an authentic-feeling Philly. I'll definitely be back!

Krave Cheesesteaks has had a lot of good buzz from the CT Foodie, Blogger and Instagram Community…read more I was recently able to visit for lunch. I live in the Hartford area, Krave certainly has one of the better cheesesteaks within a reasonable driving distance. The seating area has two person tables. They were both full most of the time I was there. Luckily, one was opening up as my cheesesteak was done and I was able to eat there. They could fit one more 2 person table there, and that seems like a good idea from what I saw. Service was friendly. I ordered a cheesesteak, which automatically comes with onions, Cherry peppers, whiz and American Cheese. I added sweet peppers, mushrooms, Mamba Sauce (described as a sweet hot sauce) and mayo. The steak was obviously fresh. It was maybe cut a bit thicker and coarser than many places. My preference would be a touch thinner. I also could have used a bit more seasoning on the steak itself. I was looking forward to the cherry pepper flavor, but it didn't stand out. I wonder if they misunderstood and substituted the sweet peppers for the cherry peppers instead of including both. The bread was about average for a cheesesteak. I think there's an opportunity to level up there. The other toppings were generally good. I've heard good things about the "salmon steak" and the "shrimp steak". I'll possibly be back to try the shrimp steak at some point. 4.25 Stars

I've been coming to Tacos Mi Nacho since before they moved to this location, and it's still my go…read moreto spot when I'm craving authentic Mexican food. On today's lunch visit I ordered a chorizo taco, carne asada taco, and two al pastor tacos with pineapple, plus a chicken quesadilla and a fresh Jamaica juice. Everything tasted fresh and full of flavor. The al pastor with pineapple was especially good; the perfect balance of savory and sweet. The restaurant had a nice vibe when I went. It was around noon and there were people enjoying food and drinks at the bar while others were dining. The place was busy but still calm, with light music playing in the background. Another thing I always notice when I visit restaurants is cleanliness, especially the bathrooms. The restroom here was very clean and smelled fresh. You can also see into the kitchen area from the dining space, which I love because you can watch them cooking and preparing everything. Friendly staff, great service, and consistently good food. I've been coming here for years and it's still one of my favorite spots for authentic tacos.
