Al pastor tacos
Diana Q.

I came here with my husband after a long morning of scuba diving and and I must say, this place hit the spot. I knew the food was gonna be good when I walled through the door and saw the mexican grocery store selections. I'd like to note that parking was super easy and the restaurant was also very well marked. That's always a plus, especially if you're looking for a quick bite to fuel you after a long morning. The menu was very well rounded, and I did appreciate the pictures that accompanied the options. Ordering was very easy, and the woman at the register was kind and attentive. There's seating in the restaurant, and I appreciated how clean everything was. The good came out very quick, and it really does taste as good as it looks. The al pastor tacos were my favorite, but I also had a tamale and enchiladas because I was super hungry. Our server came and checked on us and made sure we were well taken care of and even had a little conversation with us. I could not have asked for a better experience, and I really wish this restaurant was closer to where I lived. I got that homey vibe you can only get from a small Mexican establishment.

Jamaica, augua fresca.

I found this place when searching for a new spot to try Authentic Mexican food. I fell in love with the entire ambiance of the place as well as the friendliness of the staff. They had a small selection of aguas frescas, We tried the Jamaica, & the horchata which I didn't take a picture of. The Birria tacos with the consome, were delicious. They have a variety of food options on their menu but I went ahead with their Shrimp & Al Pastor tacos. I can say my taste buds were dancing, especially with their side sauces. The one thing I can admit is that I only eat Al Pastor tacos if they have pineapple added, so I appreciate them for that. Who doesn't love a good, stuffed, & tasty chicken burrito? Oh & by the way, there's also a good amount of parking available.

Spicy shrimp plate with rice and beans and tortillas on the side. Red and green sauces were delicious too.

Was starving and went into this hole in the wall cute restaurant/ small grocery establishment. Cute little decors on the wall but there was a family cooking type of vibe that I started getting excited about. Ordered the shrimp with rice and beans dish and WOW. There were a lot of shrimp on the plate, cooked with fresh ingredients including the rice and beans. I've been disappointed too Many times with dry rice and beans dishes but this was fresh and excellent. The lady was super friendly and we had a little chit chat about the place. Very impressed and will definitely be visiting again to try many more dishes.

This is IT! As soon as I walked in, I had a good feeling. Nice clean restaurant, bright atmosphere, not too fancy, combination Mexican grocery/restaurant... These are all the signs of a hidden gem. The first dish I tried were the sopes. If you haven't tried sopes, you need to roll your ass out of bed and drive to Frida's right now. Sopes are a direct upgrade of tacos. And the sopes at Frida's check every box. Warm, crispy masa dough that isn't too thick and soft in the middle? Check. Layer of beans (black, actually, which I've never seen) topped by a generous layer of juicy seasoned meat? Check. A decadent crown of shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, crumbled cotija cheese and a little sour cream? Check. My queen has come and demanded the undivided attention of my taste buds. And they obey graciously! Don't let me forget the house made salsas. The red salsa is ACTUALLY HOT. Don't you hate when you ask for something spicy and it tastes like Tapatio? Their red salsa brings a deep, roasted chile flavor and plenty of bite to back it up. About half way through the meal I was feeling a built up, saliva inducing, nose running, sweat bringing, drink grabbing heat. It was beautiful. Finally we have the environment and service. Like I said the space isn't fancy but it was nice. Trust me, you don't want to eat at fancy looking Mexican restaurants. I don't know what it is but the food is always horrible. It's like they took the entire food budget and spent it on the building. The woman who took our order at the front also brought us our food, checked in on us, and cleaned up when we were done. She was very sweet and gave us definite motherly eating-at-someone's-house vibes. The only downside of this restaurant is that it is not next to my house. Open a new location in Trumbull!!!

Wow! The birria tacos were spot on! So good. They give a nice cup of consume and the lady that helped me was very nice. Place looks cute and clean inside I'll definitely come back

White Pozole
Rose R.

Frida's restaurant ticked off all the boxes. The place was super clean! They have an attentive staff, great food and refreshing smoothies. My favorite meal was the white pozole -- it was delicious!

a variety of food items

First time here, place is very spacious and clean. I loved the decorations. The staff was very friendly. They have someone who can speak both English and Spanish so don't worry if your Spanish isn't great. It's a combination of a restaurant and mini grocery store. I tried the carne asada burrito. It was very tasty. It consisted of carne asada, rice, beans, pico de Gallo, sour cream, lettuce, guacamole, and cheese. Ingredients were fresh. The gauc and sour cream made the burrito nice and moist. I decided to add some salsa verde to the mix which was yummy. I can't wait to go back and try the tacos, mole and the delicious looking empanadas. Definitely recommend stopping by if your in the area! Pricing is also fair for the quality

Beef burrito with all the toppings and salsa verde.
Marie A.

I've driven by so many times but after a Facebook post of a giant burrito, I decided to order ahead for a burrito lunch. Beef burrito with everything on it. It was huge! Burrito for lunch and half for dinner. Very tasty. The people working there are so friendly and gracious. Plenty of parking. I'll try it again!

Wanted to lick the bowl it's so good guacamole  made from the heart.
Jennifer D.

Omg the BEST food I have had in FOREVER!!! You must try this place. The best place for authentic Mexican cuisine made clearly with love.

I had the vegetarian burrito, had so many veggies and it was bigggg. I loved it. The person who took my order and brought my food out was very nice and the whole restaurant/ store was very clean. Also they have a parking lot!!

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!!
