Food: The rice is flavorful, the meat is tender, and the sweet plantains are my absolute favorite. Portion size is amazing. You can get a huge container of food (basically serves two people) with a drink for under ten bucks. Service was friendly and helpful. I especially like how they serve it for you. Other delis in the area are self-serve which sketches me out for sanitary reasons. Overall great value, nice people, good variety, awesome portion size, and tasty food.

I stopped by during my travels looking for a sandwich and just loved the whole set up of the place…read more There is a butcher area for all kinds of meats, all looked fresh and of great quality. Customers were coming in to pick up their meat orders. The deli area offers a variety of cold and hot sandwiches, salads, sides. Great selection. I ordered a roast beef and Swiss on a hard roll, with coleslaw and horseradish sauce. It was fantastic! The meat was flavorful and plentiful and that homemade slaw added a great little kick. They also have baked breads and goodies. I left with a sourdough bread and a choc chip cookie. There are some tables outside to eat. They also sell unwashed, unrefrigerated chicken eggs from a local farm. So great! I did buy these, but somehow they didn't make it into my bag which I did not discover until I got home, but other than that, service was super friendly and helpful. So refreshing to have quality customer service. The store is well organized, nicely decorated, and extremely clean. I recommend a stop in and I will make a point to return as soon as possible.

They make everything in-house from bacon, breakfast sausage, steak tips, and they have the best pork chops around.

Minas Carne is an authentic Brazilian barbeque restaurant and delicatessen that opened in Danbury,…read moreConnecticut in 1997. It was founded by the Reyes Family of restaurateurs, which includes Luis, Juan & Richard. The Reyes Family immigrated to the United States from the Dominican Republic in 1990. The first eatery they opened in 1991 was Amigo's Deli & Carniceria, which is still going strong today. In 1997, the family opened Minas Carne, which features authentic Brazilian BBQ and traditional sides served in a fast-casual environment. It quickly became a popular staple in Danbury. In 2020, the Reyes Family opened Mariposa Taqueria. It closed in 2026, but the Reyes Family plan to turn it into a second location for Minas Carne which will open soon. I have eaten at Minas Carne numerous times over the years. The restaurant is 400 feet away from Western Connecticut State University's Midtown Campus, and it has long been a popular food option for WestConn students. I myself attended WestConn for both my undergraduate and graduate degrees. Recently I was in Danbury to see a concert, so I decided to stop by Minas Carne for some dinner beforehand. Everything is buffet style here and the line moves quickly. I grabbed a platter and loaded up on some sides such as "White Rice", "Yellow Rice", "Brown Beans", "Meat & Bean Stew", "Fried Chicken", "Beef Stew", and "Seasoned Plantains". Then I headed to the star of the show: the brick-oven charcoal barbeque pit. I asked for a little bit of "Pork Tenderloin" as well as some "Linguiça". Everything was delicious! There's a reason why I've been coming back here again and again for over 20 years. If you're looking for an authentic Brazilian BBQ experience then I highly recommend Minas Carne!

Mina's has great garlic steak and chicken wings, and I love their yellow rice and collard greens…read more But today's visit felt like I was ripped off. I loaded up the container with rice and collard greens, got 3 chicken wings and garlic steak, and paid $41. It was 2.7 lbs charged at $14.05. But the posted prices were $10.99/lb for combo and $14.49 for meat only. How do they determine pricing? Obviously, it looks like I got only all meat in the photo, but it's sitting on top of rice and collard greens, which, by the way, the rice is very heavy since I got a lot of it. I think that's just a bit deceptive when a restaurant does that kind of crap to their customers. I saw one review from years ago that they do arbitrarily change pricing when they think you got more meat on your plate. That's just plain wrong.
