    Food was super authentic and delicious! Mixed pupusas and birria tacos are amazing. The sopes were also delicious. Highly recommend!

    ORIGIN: Chomp Chomp opened in Fall 2024. It is the first…read moreand only Chomp Chomp. LOCATION: Chomp Chomp is located in the middle of the Danbury Fair Mall food court. ATMOSPHERE: Since Chomp Chomp is located in a mall food court, the atmosphere is as expected -- lots of background noises, scents, and activity. In a nutshell, not a relaxing place to gather and dine. CONCEPT: Chomp Chomp is fast food, but offers a curiously diverse list of dishes such as pastrami sandwiches, rice bowls, pork belly bao, and Oklahoma-style burgers. Likewise, Chomp Chomp offers a diverse range of beverages to complement your chosen dish, including mango milkshake, Coke, and creamsicle float. FOOD: So much is offered on the menu, but I've been enamored by the Oklahoma-style burger and have yet to explore the menu. As I understand this century-old regional burger preparation method, beef is smashed on a grill, seasoned, topped with thin slices of onions, which in turn are covered with cheese. Steam from the onions permeates the cheese as it melts. The result is a super moist burger in which flavors of each component are married, rather than contrasted. SERVICE: Each time I've visited the person working the counter was enthusiastic about the new business and eager to offer guidance. TIP: For a few dollars more you can get fries and a drink. For a single burger this ends up being around cost of McDonald's ($12), but the quality, service, and flavor is far better at Chomp Chomp. The Oklahoma burger is available as single or double. I found that the flavor was more pronounced in the double version. Toppings are customizable. For example, you can add lettuce and tomato on a burger, or add meat or sauces to fries. (That said, I prefer to stick to the original Oklahoma burger version in order to experience the regional burger in its original form.)

    Chomp Chomp is a pretty reliable place. The food is tasty and prepared fresh and price-wise,…read moreit's on par with the other places at the food court in Danbury Fair Mall. They run a lean operation....sometimes just one person manning the grill so you order through a big tablet up front. Choose what you want to eat and drink and the person behind the counter makes it for you. If you put your phone number in when you order, you'll get a text when your food is ready. I usually have chicken when I visit Chomp Chomp and it's always juicy and hot. They have a Chomp Chomp sauce that I really like, it's especially good with fries. Additionally, the brioche buns they use are very high quality. This is a good alternative if you're tired of the other places in the food court.

    I have been a big fan of Peruvian Chicken and rice, after having a Peruvian in Stamford close to…read morework. My younger colleagues used to have that as good, standard food. When 'Tastes of Danbury' included Po-Yo, I wanted to try the Chicken and did just that. Had Chicken and Yuca fries and cheese fries. The Chicken, I believe, is marinated for a long time with the special Peruvian herbs and spices. (All Peruvian, not just here) That shows in the Chicken. I would call this flavor one of the best of this kind. Loved the chicken. Also, asked the nice lady what are the main take out orders for. It seems to be this chicken. My companions got the Ghost Chicken - which I heard was decent. The tacos looked real good. I loved the 5 different sauces that came with the table. Each one unique. They had beers on tap, which sealed the deal for me. Good place. Excellent staff, very friendly.

They had tables outside and in the shade - Ding Ding! This was also our first time at Po Yo. The staff was friendly from when I went inside to see if we could sit outside, our server, and the girl who brought our food out. Instead of bread or chips our meal started out with popcorn which was a nice change. My husband was not that hungry and ordered nachos, and I went with the cuban. Good thing I can eat because the nachos were HUGE. Layers of tortilla chips, shredded cheese, shredded rotisserie chicken, red onions, and black beans. On the side for toppings was cut up avocados, salsa, and sour cream. Besides the 1st layer it got cold sort of quick. We're not sure if the nachos finished before my sandwich or it was just the nature of the layers. My cuban was nicely toasted. The shredded chicken good. It had my fav the spicy mustard. I felt like there may have been mayo or another sauce that I could have done without. The shoe string french fries I chose as my side had just enough salt and were very good. Overall a good meal. Something different besides pizza and chinese food. Worth a try!

    CONCEPT: Favi Lunches & Deli serves common American deli…read moreitems, but with a Brazilian twist. Rather than rice pudding, Favi prepares Açaí. Yuca fries instead of potato fries. And the most notable... in lieu of relatively simple cheese and bacon burgers, Favi serves a variety of tall hamburgers known as X Tudu. A popular street and restaurant item in Brazil, X Tudu, pronounced "Shees-TOO-Dew" is a play on the Portuguese pronunciation for the letter X (Shees) and can be translated as "cheese with everything". And so it is! A variety of permutations are offered on the menu, with the classic X Tudu composed of layers of beef patty, mozzarella cheese, corn kernels, lettuce, tomato, bacon, ham, and fried egg encased in a sesame seed bun smeared with mayonnaise. EXPERIENCE: The X Tudus were highly recommended by neighbors, and I started with the Classic X Tudu. The composition seemed to exemplify a literal definition of brunch, with traditional American breakfast (egg, ham, bacon, cheese) joined with traditional American lunch (lettuce, tomato, corn, beef) in every bite. As this was my first experience with X Tudu, I am unable to remark on how well or how traditionally Favi executed the dish. I can report that the beef patty was relatively thin, allowing ground beef to be one of many thin layers that combine into a unique, complex single bite. Yuca fries complemented the X Tudu, as well as a small container of garlic-intense avocado purée. A refrigerator case is stocked with a wide variety of Brazilian desserts, including Brigadiero (chocolate fudge balls covered with chocolate sprinkles), as well as unique sugar-based sodas. Shelves are lined with Brazilian candies. It is clear that sweets are popular in Brazil! TIPS: X Tudu is very filling, as intended, and great option to pick up for brunch on a weekend errand run. I am told by neighbors that they prefer the sirloin option at Favi's (X Tudu Picanha). Try the imported Brazilian sugar-based sodas that are flavored with rainforest fruit (Guarana). Parking is available on the right side of the entrance.
