We were the only customers there! I had seen on-line that three food trucks would be present, but there were just two -The Gulla Grille (Brazilian) and Taste of Home (Puerto Rican). Aunties Pasta (Italian) wasn't there. The designers of Westside really need to get a lot of credit for the beautiful job they did in salvaging this forlorn corner of Hartford. The dozens of wood tables and benches were made from old recycled industrial spools, and they are really amazing. There are corn hole boards, beer pong table, Giant Jenga, Connect Four, a movie screen, a music stage, and a bar spread throughout the property so there's a ton of things to do there. I had a kebab plate from Gulla and my wife had a cheeseburger from Taste of Home. She was given one of those buzzing gizmos to tell her when her food was ready. I knew my lunch was ready when the guy flagged me down like he was hailing a cab. I love the concept of food truck courts and I suspect Westside is quite a bit busier in the evenings that it was lunch time on a holiday weekend Saturday, when we had the place to ourselves..

I've had the butter chicken taco twice now, and the first time, my husband tried it without me and…read moreimmediately bought a second one to bring home because it was so good. Despite the fifteen minute car ride, it was one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth. I've spent the next few days literally seeing this taco in my dreams. We drove from New Britain to Bristol to get another but unfortunately they were rained out and the event was cancelled. Tried again today and made a special 45 minute trip! with a five year old in the car! because this taco is truly so so so good! and I even brought my parents!! and luckily we found Paki Taco and were able to order. Dear Reader/Eater, it was worth the wait. It was worth the drive(s), the cranky five year old, and it absolutely lived up to expectations. Next time I'm trying the birria. Yum. Sadly, I forgot to take a photo of the taco in my eagerness to actually consume it, but please believe it looked as delicious as it tasted.

I got the butter chicken gordita and I will echo other reviewers - it was delicious! I probably could have eaten another. My husband got the ground beef taco and really wished he'd ordered two. The owner was friendly and we enjoyed chatting with him. I hope we get to see this food truck again in the near future, we will definitely eat here again!

Still tasty, little pricier…read more I've come to this place a couple more times. The handsome chicken was good bites at decent prices. Now they are a little more expensive but the quality is still pretty good. The chicken fat potatoes need a bit more seasoning, the chickpeas need to be crispier, and the empanada chicken tasted old. Everything else was wonderful. There's some minor slips compared to my previous visits, but it's still really good food and a great to go option for the area.

Service was a little slow but I didn't mind because the food was fresh. However there were almost no customers when I was there so I don't know how it goes when they have a crowd. Still because the flavor was so good, I'm def coming back. This may become one of my spots when I want to get burritos or pupusas that remind me of California.

I'm not sure if the upstairs area is still available for guests to use. The most recent time I was there for Thursday night karaoke. DJ Aura hosted and there was a pretty decent turnout! The space is definitely good for large groups. The entrance to the bar area is a bit tight but they have some high top table tables available as well. I tried the chicken tacos and they were alright. Next time I would probably try something different. I heard they just got a new chef so I'm interested in the flavors she's bringing to the kitchen.

This hidden gem is located on Market Street in Hartford right beside the 960 Main St building. It's a selfie museum and a restaurant all in one. The restaurant menu is small but there are a wide variety of options to choose from. I came for Christmas dinner with friends who were all dining for the first time. I ordered the New York strip with candied yams and mac and cheese. The mac and cheese was a little bland but was still edible. It was my first time trying candied yams and it was so rich, sweet, and delicious. I had my steak well done and it was so juicy. The serving size was also pretty decent as I had leftovers for the next day. For my drink, I had the soho punch which was very tasty and fruity. To be able to take pictures I believe you have to pay for that part separately, however, based on the numbers in our party, they told us we could take pics and you know the model I am, I went around and took photos at nearly all the photo booths. Each photo station has a ring camera with a ring light which makes it perfect for taking pictures especially if you do not have anyone to take your pictures. All the others in my party also enjoyed their meals. They had jerk chicken alfredo, fried whiting fish, salmon alfredo, Buffalo chicken wings, burgers and so much more. They also do paint and aip and will be hosting a New Year's Eve brunch if you are interested.
