The only downside for me was the chicken empanada it had way more dough than meat inside, which I didn't expect. I was hoping for a better balance of filling. Aside from that, the experience was still pretty decent.

This was my first time visiting Flor Do Mar at Parkville Market. They specialize in Paella and…read moreseafood. It doesn't seem like you should be able to execute paella this good in a Food Hall where people are expecting quick turnaround on their meals, but I thought my Valencia Paella was very good. Per the menu, it had shrimp, clams, octopus, squid, peas and seasoned rice. The clams and different sizes of shrimp were most visible. I especially loved all the baby sized shrimp. The seafood had good texture and everything was well seasoned. People who are hardcore paella purists may say, "yeah, but it didn't have the crispy rice parts that meet the pan (the socarrat)." I wouldn't expect that out of a Food Hall paella place, but if that's what you're looking for, you may need to find a nice sit down Spanish or Portuguese restaurant and wait a while for that to be cooked. 4.5 Stars.

Our meeting with 17 women and 8 Hartford Police officers who came to answer our questions about personal and Internet safety was a positive experience, led by our friend Hyacinth Yennie. This community activist spends her time at the Senior Citizen Wellness Center down the street, where she leads activities and trips for older residents of the neighborhood. Delicious food, attentive service, and affordable prices made this restaurant a positive choice for our monthly support group meeting. The hors d'oeuvres, sandwiches, and desserts hit the spot while we engaged with South End police officers who answered our questions about safety and gave short, helpful talks. All in all, it was a positive experience. We will return for the delicious Spanish food and the excellent service from the wait staff. Thank you, Lo Sano, for a wonderful dining experience. We thanked our friend HyavinthYennie for recommending such a good place for our group to meet and enjoy a delicious meal. Thank you, Lo Sano, for a wonderful dining experience.

However, it was so worth it when we at down to eat. Got the potato ball, tostonas, beef stew, beans, and white rice. The flavor was delicious and I can't wait to go back to try more of their pastries that they are known for. I did not want to over order my first time in case I didn't like the food. Wish I did get a to go order to eat at home. Give it a try!

(Disclaimer I'm writing this review based on their food truck )…read more Today I went to their food truck and ordered a 2-parcha/ passion fruit drink, plantain with meat, and some type of sandwich. This should have at least taken 20 minutes tops for a food truck but it took 2 hours including the drink. Overall, the food was good. The sandwich was really good but the plantain felt thrown together and way too oily, and at that point, I just threw it away. Wish they did better because I was excited for the food but I feel like it wasn't worth the wait.

We had pork and rice and beans and empanadas and potato balls. I was so satisfied, I went to the restaurant again to pick up dinner for my family. When I went for pick up, it was clean, the soda selection was great, which my kids were excited about, and the staff was so friendly (and bilingual-which was a relief). I will definitely be back!

My first time here over the summer was good overall! The food was hot and the staff was friendly,…read morewhich I appreciated. They have a good amount of seating available inside and great options to choose from. We did end up grabbing some made to order alcapurrias. All 3 tasted good but they needed hot sauce, lacking in flavor. I felt as the chicken one lacked the most flavor but was ok when hot sauce added & so did the pork one. I'll say that the ground beef alcapurria was my favorite out of the 3; although I still personally felt they all needed some hot sauce to add that kick missing. An alcapurria is a known Puerto Rican fritura/fried street food, growing up to even being an adult it's one of my favorite things if done right. We also had the bistec with rice, a side of beans, & a side of plantains. As well as the pernil with yellow rice. Both of these dishes lacked flavor, again needing hot sauce or missing something. The beans did have a good amount of flavor, which I enjoyed, & the plantains were slightly over fried. The visit itself was satisfying, I would return to give them another shot as well as hopefully try their carne guisada plate, which wasn't available at the time I went that day. I didn't give this business a 4 star rating simply because of the lack of flavor in mostly each item ordered. I would give it a solid 3.8 if I could.

This charming little restaurant had been closed for renovations, and while I'm not exactly sure when they reopened, the updated space looks wonderful and cozy. The service is humble and friendly, but please be patient - the server is also the cook, and the whole staff pitches in to keep things running smoothly. Since it's a smaller establishment, if you need anything, it's best to walk up to the front and ask for assistance. I ordered two chicken tacos and two spicy beef tacos, and they were absolutely delicious. Honestly, everything on the menu is worth trying!

There was also a bar that a few people were hanging out at enjoying themselves. I don't live here, but I would definitely come back if I did.
