God I love this place. I want to gatekeep it SO badly so it's never too busy for me to dine in, but…read moreI also want them to make a million dollars and stay open forever, so here we are. The tortillas are made from fresh masa pressed to order, which is amazing by itself, but on top of that, every taco I've had is nothing short of delightful. Every time I visit, my order has been increasing by one taco because I can't get enough. They are so kind and friendly, they remember my order and preferred toppings (or lackthereof, met with zero judgement!!), and the atmosphere is super comfortable. It is semi-loud, which I personally have no problem with, but I have seen stuffy older people come in and be turned off (bye, more tacos for me!). When I die, please bury me in a mound of Tacos Los Gordos carnitas!!!! TLG, you will see me weekly as long as I live in New Haven.

I have never seen three people work harder than in this kitchen on Cinco de Mayo. Thankfully, I put…read morein my order about 10 minutes after they reopened at 5 PM. Minutes later, chaos ensued, and there was a line of about 20 people that never went away. They make the tortillas from scratch, I watched a woman in the kitchen, piecing off the dough and then flattening them in a press, and then putting them on the grill, over and over and over again. By the way, their tortilla chips are made of this same homemade goodness. I can see why there was a line out the door until I finished my meal. The tacos I ordered were perfectly seasoned, very tender, and incredibly juicy. I don't think I've ever had tacos like that before. Even if there is a line, I would highly recommend stopping in for these delicious morsels.

Ambience is quiet today, service was quick and timely didn't wait long at all. Had to eat the exotic things you don't find like cheek or cabeza tacos and things I've always wanted to try. Definitely recommend this place only place I'll trust in Stamford. Prices are reasonable as well !

I have been a dedicated customer for many years. My experience today is one where I will never…read morereturn. The owners son is entitled and will not stand behind his mistakes and lack of knowledge of their menu. I only order one thing on the menu their amazing shrimp quesadillas. I am allergic to tomatoes and know their shrimp quesadillas (which are not on the main menu) are made with pico de gallo inside the actual quesadilla and also served on the side. When I called to order as I have many times I made the request for onions and cilantro only inside and no pico on the side the owners son argued that it only has pico on the side. So I inevitably stated no pico at all to try and prevent a problem of tomatoes being on the food. I don't come often as I don't live local. When I arrived home I found my shrimp quesadillas had pico on them. I called to rectify the matter and the son's owner answered the phone and contained to argue that pico is not put into the quesadilla so apparently the pico I'm seeing inside isn't real. The pico was all through out the quesadilla. Mistakes happen but the fact that I tried to order the food properly and was denied the ability for it to be made that way is where the issue lies. I was told policy is no refunds only return of the food and it was my fault for not asking for it to be made without pico period since the son only wrote no pico on the side since he was convinced that it wasn't made with pico also inside. Their son was wrong and obviously uneducated on how they prepare their food and I was not willing to drive back 30 minutes to have food replaced as my young kids needed naps. The owners then said I was wrong because I should said no pico at all so it became a family affair and the owners not accepting accountability for his misinformation and wrong order taking. Very disheartening experience where the principle was completely missed.

But this place was a disappointment on another lever. Considering this place is super close by to our new place we had hopes that it would have some great tacos/food. I am a vegetarian and tried jalapeño poppers which were the frozen ones fried. The worst part about them was the sauce they were served with. It had a raspberry sweet sauce and I have never seen that anywhere else. I still kept an open mind and tried it but it was terrible. I am so sorry but didn't really go well at all with any kind of open mind/taste buds. Please change the sauce with this. It doesn't need to be a spicy sauce but something better and not sweet. The tacos (as described by my husband) were very bland and the red and green salsa that came with it were terrible as well. I won't be coming back.

Arturo's offers top-flight Mexican and Italian cuisine in an intimate, comfortable setting, complete with a cozy bar. It is sophisticated yet casual, and, happily, not loud.

Honestly, the only one I truly liked and would get again is the pork belly kimchi. The al pastor and carne asada were dry and lacking in meat. I would only come here on Taco Tuesdays since the tacos are only $2. The tacos are pretty small. If I had to pay $4-$5 dollars for a taco, I would be upset.
