    There was plenty of parking and easy to find with banners by the road that said empanadas and etc. Plenty of food, drink, and dessert options to choose from. Inside, there was actually a decent amount of seating space available if you wanted to sit and eat. The space was previously a Subway, but I think they should have made a few adjustments to make the space work a little better for them. The owners were super friendly and made sure that any questions were answered. The food and drinks were delicious. We were excited for the soda options they had. Super tasty food. The chicken chaufa was like an asian fried rice with maduros. The lomo saltado plate was so flavorful. We wish it had enough sauce to cover the rice and the fries. I highly recommend the lomo saltado plate for any beer lovers.

    This little gem is a "YOU MUST GO!!! We stopped in tonight and had the most wonderful experience. We ordered the Lomo Saltado, Steak Chaufa, and a Shrimp Empanada. Miguel (the owner with his wife) was so knowledgeable in Puerto Rican/Peruvian cuisine. His wife is from Peru and she killed it with the authentic spices!!! I have never had steak cooked that way - it was absolutely tremendous! We can't wait to try everything on the menu.

    Puerta Lima is a great new eatery in Gales Ferry and the owners have revived this location of the old Subway restaurant by creating a business miles above in comparison. If you are looking for a great spot for lunch, look no further. Want a delicious pressed sandwich big enough to share but don't want to because then you couldn't have it all to yourself? This is your place. The have tons of freshly prepared ingredients to build your own bowl whether or not you choose to make it healthy is up to you. Try, try, try the Chicha Morada! It's a popular dried purple corn Peruvian beverage with a lovely, not-super sweet flavor, like a fruity mixture of mulled apple cider and a grape freeze pop. I highly recommend the experience. The empanadas are amazing, available in beef, chicken, shrimp, and pizza. The beef ones have green olives in them which seems Puerto Rican style to me. I recommend the bowls which can be made vegan/plant-based or for those meat lovers, top it with whatever protein you're looking for. Bring a friend and order two pressed sandwiches and then swap halves so you each get to experience something new. The desserts looked amazing and fir the holidays they have hit chocolate bombs. Everything looks like it's made from scratch and this family owned business is very proud of what they have here. The owner stopped by our table to ask how our food was and boasted about his newly added dining area on the side. Go out and get it now and support this up and coming local business!!! Close by to the Navy base, this is a great location for lunch out with the office or your division!

    Great experience! Nice location. Had the arroz chaufa and shrimp empanada and both were excellent. Friendly and welcoming and owners. They have a variety of items to choose from, can't go wrong.

    A coworker recommended this place and I'm glad he did! A Puerto Rican/Peruvian fusion restaurant, the owners are extremely welcoming and polite. They offered us samples and explained some of the local dishes to us. They were very proud of their food, as they should be - it was great! We also liked their decor, and their flan was one of the best I've ever had. They also serve handmade drinks, which are outstanding. I'd also like to mention that their portion sizes are generous, in particular the empanadas. We will definitely be visiting again!

    We were a party of 8. We felt welcomed, every guest was very pleased with their dish ( picked from…read moretheir traditional menu and from the specials) and their drinks. We left the restaurant feeling very happy to have come to celebrate at this wonderful restaurant.

    Rossa Negra absolutely delivered. The food was muy delicioso from start to finish, and the…read morecocktails... well, let's just say they're the kind you need to keep an eye on. They go down way too easily. Do yourself a favor and order the pistachio martini -- dangerously smooth and totally worth it. The restaurant itself is super easy to get to -- it's right in a shopping strip near I‑95, and there's plenty of parking, which is always a relief. Inside, the vibe is simple elegance. You've got options: table seating, counter seating, and a full bar if you're in a cocktail mood. We couldn't decide on just one thing, so we went all‑in on appetizers: * Tuna Tartar - super fresh and flavorful * Calamari Ecuadorian Style - tender with a sauce that was different in the best way * Trio Empanadas - the Colombian beef and Ecuadorian chicken were my favorites; the plantain & cheese one wasn't really my thing * Chickpea Salad - the dressing deserves its own award And shoutout to Fausto, our server. He was knowledgeable, charming, and on top of everything without hovering. Just really solid service all around. Already thinking about what I'm trying next time.

    Had a great experience at MIA! The décor is super cute and definitely very Instagrammable perfect…read morespot for photos and a fun night out. I came here with coworkers to celebrate a farewell for someone moving out of state, and it also happened to be around my birthday. My coworker had the servers come out and sing happy birthday, and I loved the Latin flair they added it made the moment feel really special and lively. The overall vibe, energy, and experience were really enjoyable, and it's definitely a place I'd return to. The only downside is that the drinks are on the pricier side, but everything else made up for it.

    Exactly the new restaurant Middletown needs!…read more The happy hour is A-MAZING. The prices really can't be beat for the quality of the food and drinks, as well as the atmosphere. They also use gorgeous dish ware that feels luxurious. Certain food and drink items are listed for $8 each on the happy hour menu, and we got two margaritas, empanadas, shrimp tacos and a burrata salad, plus we threw in a side of tostones, and everything was delicious. It was less than $30 per person including tip! Do not snooze on this!!! We sat at one of the swing tables, and while the novelty of swinging while eating was quite fun, it was a little tricky to get close enough to the table to eat comfortably. But it's worth trying at least once! They did a great job decorating for the holidays, and the server was super kind. I loved the whole experience and will most certainly return.
