    Margarita and Elote
    Emily D.

    Great food in an inviting atmosphere. So fresh and delicious. Don't sleep on their breakfast menu.

    Burrito bowl
    Daniel C.

    I'm no expert on Mexican food, but just as someone who appreciates good food, I really enjoyed my meal at La Catrina. The menu seems versatile and there's likely something for everyone to enjoy. I had a burrito, while my dining companions had a burrito bowl and a mashed potato pizza with a Mexican twist. Portions were hearty and felt like a great value. Every dish was flavorful and cooked just right. We were stuffed and didn't have any room for dessert, but that's definitely something I have my eye on for next time! We found the service to be warm, friendly, and inviting. While the space wasn't huge, it should comfortably accommodate larger groups. They do offer alcoholic options such as margaritas and sangria. Regrettably the margarita was unavailable, but I found the sangria flavorful nonetheless. This will definitely be my go-to for Mexican food moving forward! Looking forward to trying more of their offerings on a future visit.

    It's hard to find a solid Mexican restaurant on the east coast... this place hits the spot! Immediate top tier customer service. Alberto was our waiter, he was so good he must have gotten trained by the chic fil a staff. Customer service was excellent. The food was even better! If you need some great Mexican food this it it! Will definitely be back!

    Plantains

    My family and I got lunch on a whim. We enjoyed our seafood tacos. They tasted fresh and weren't over the top - pure to the ingredients. The guacamole was a nice portion, though it would have been better with more chips. The plantains were standard and very good. This spot is a solid option!

    What a nice spot for Mexican food near the beach! I love the brightly decorated dining room here. We tried a variety of their menu, which features tacos, traditional Mexican dishes, breakfast, and even pizzas and American foods! Everything we had was delicious - I especially loved the mole poblano, nachos, and scrambled eggs with chorizo. Refreshing aguas frescas that would be perfect for after a beach day, and their housemade desserts were phenomenal! Quick and attentive service as well.

    When I found myself back in Milford today, I was excited to realize I could head over to La Catrina for another wonderful takeout lunch. Again, I had the veggie quesadilla and again it was delicious!! Both times, my food was ready on time and I was greeted by a friendly staff member. Now I want to go for a meal inside. It's a beautiful interior with brightly colored Mexican artwork like Día de Los Muertos skulls and other details. I'll be back soon! ¡Hasta pronto!

    Guacamole, made fresh

    A great addition to the Walnut Beach area, great service, the food was all made with fresh ingredients and the dining area had a great atmosphere. It is currently BYOB but they should have liquor license by Summer.

    Churros with a chocolate sauce! Crispy, delicious!!

    Food was excellent. Margarita not great - too sweet. Small taqueria. Don't expect a tremendous amount of ambiance.

    8 Thousand Pizza is a pizzeria and pour-your-own taproom that opened in Milford, Connecticut in…read moreNovember 2023. It was founded by restaurateurs Skye Kwok and Tommy Nguyen. Kwok has more than 20 years experience in the hospitality industry. Some of the other restaurants he has opened include Sweet Basil in Fairfield, Pink Sumo Sushi & Sake Cafe in Westport, and Eat Noodle in Bridgeport. Kwok and Nguyen's latest venture opened at the Connecticut Post Mall in a restaurant space that was previously home to Cast Iron Chef Kitchen & Bar, which specialized in tavern-style pizzas cooked in a cast-iron skillet. 8 Thousand Pizza offers this same style of pizza, but what sets them apart from the previous pizzeria is that they also offer self-pouring technology, which became legalized in Connecticut in 2021. The food menu features two dozen tavern-style pizzas as well as burgers, wings, fries, salads and soups. Through the use of a supplied electronic bracelet, customers can self-pour their own beverage from a selection of 28 craft beer taps and 6 wine taps. There's a two-pint or 32-ounce limit for the self-pours. I recently visited 8 Thousand Pizza for dinner. I had previously visited the space when it was Cast Iron Chef Kitchen & Bar and was sad to hear that they moved. However, this new business concept of a tavern-style pizzeria with self-pouring taps sounded very interesting to me. This was actually my first visit to a self-pouring taproom, as these types of establishments only just began opening in the state in the last few years. After looking over the menu, I decided to order the "Grandma's Tomato Pizza" (fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, roasted garlic, tomatoes and EVOO) and the "Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza" (tomato sauce, pepperoni, hot honey sauce and mozzarella cheese). The latter happens to be 8 Thousand's signature pizza. Both pizzas had crust so thin that it's almost cracker like; they didn't flop at all. They were super crispy with excellent sauce and toppings. I honestly can't decide which one I liked better; they were both very good. During my visit, I enjoyed some self-pours of Grey Sail Brewing's "Captain's Daughter" (Double New England IPA) and New Park Brewing's "Cloudscape" (American IPA). Delicious pizza with craft beer is always an excellent pairing! I had a really nice experience at 8 Thousand Pizza and I hope to return with my family.

Paying by the ounce. Service was nice and attentive. But you have to go up to the counter to order. Many of the betas were out or empty. I did like that. They had a wide selection of glasses available for the different styles of beer.

    The best kept secret for the most authentic, deliciously seasoned and best Mexican food in Milford!…read moreThey are some of the kindest people I've met and they truly put a ton of TLC into the dishes they make. They offer many great combinations for pizzas but the real MVP here is the Mexican dishes they offer. If you know what mole is, then you know. They make the absolute best mole enchiladas I've had (and we have had a bunch). My boyfriend is half Mexican, so I am very particular with getting it when out and about but Pancho's is hands down THE BEST! Also their tacos are to die for!! Definitely check them out, you won't regret it!!

    Don't let the name fool you. Sure, Panchos Pizza makes a good pizza, burgers, grinders, pasta…read moredishes and more, but the Mexican food here is the star. It more than competes with any of the upscale Mexican restaurants in the area, and the prices are very reasonable. I've been ordering take out from here since they opened, and the quality has remained very high. Today I ordered The Chicken Enchilada dinner. They give you four enchiladas smothered in cheese and salsa verde, a small salad, and an order of rice and beans, and three kinds of salsas, all for under $14.00! No other restaurant that I know of gives you such an abundance of great Mexican food for that price. I also ordered a small Nachos Con Queso, which was also generously proportioned and delicious. I am pretty particular when it comes to Mexican food. I've had some of the best, having lived in New Mexico for three years. Panchos is as good as the best the Southwest has to offer. It's not "Americanized" Mexican fare, but remains authentically true to it's roots. I heartily recommend you give it a try some night if you like authentic Mexican food, for selfish reasons: I don't want to see them go away. Don't let their location fool you, a small, unassuming shopping center on Route 1 in Milford.
