Great no-frills lunch spot for fresh tacos, burritos, tortas, and bowls. Vegetarian options too. Easy off the highway in Westbrook, close to the outlets. Felt sorry for everyone going into the Subway next door for lunch - their loss!

This place is amazing. Best authentic Mexican food on the shoreline. Enchiladas al pastor and the tres leches cake are my go to items.

Delicious Mexican food served with a smile. The staff is always so nice, and I haven't eaten anything there that I didn't absolutely love!

Awesome food truck feel, but with a reliable storefront! I ordered takeout about a dozen times, and the food is consistently delicious!

It's a small spot with a few seats so it's more of a grab a go or delivery option but I will absolutely be back.

Bland food, rice in my veggie burrito was hard and veggies were not even cooked. Minuscule amount…read moreof guac/sour cream. Really no seasoning at all and burrito was basically fully of hard crunchy rice with no flavor. Too bad I wanted to like the place and the interior and service was good but for $20 burrito filled with almost nothing but old crunchy flavorless rice I can't reccomend. Wish the owners would read the reviews because there is potential here but not if the food is bland, overpriced and insulting teaspoon on guac and sour cream to go with my massive flour tortilla filled with nothing but rice. Shoreline could really use a decent Mexican place and the drink menu is good but this missed the mark big time. Wish I could rate 2.5 stars but due to nice bartender and clean inside and drink menu I decided to rate up to a 3. Edit to add: I posted this review as we were leaving- owner came out to confront me about it. The review above is unchanged from what I originally posted. Was very a la Amy's Baking Company. Take that for what it's worth- not all are interested in feedback.

We came here on a Thursday night with a group and had a reservation. I think they've figured things…read moreout a little more since opening.. service was timely, friendly, and attentive. My margarita was good (cantina marg), but my friends was all simple syrup (spicy marg) and had a huge half a lime in it which seemed to be a filler... $16 is a tough price when half the drink volume is because of a like rind. Food was decent.. we had queso, quesadilla, chimichanga, burrito, and fries. No serious complaints.. we liked the queso and chips were fresh!

No other customers in the restaurant when my friend and I arrived. Then others came after us and…read moregot their food before us. When our food came out it was cold and barely edible. I got the 3 tacos. Chicken, pork and veggie. Veggie was the best out of the 3 but it was so cold it was hard to enjoy. The side of guac was almost black in color so it was probably old. The only thing going for them is the decor of the restaurant. Don't waste your money and time

Craving tacos and in Clinton, Connecticut? Pica Chica Tacos has got you covered! This little gem…read moreoffers fast-casual dining with bright, colorful vibes that immediately make you feel happy. And once you take your first bite, you'll be doing a happy dance. My sister and her friend visited Pica Chica Tacos recently and we happened to be in the area. The young staff was very friendly and helpful. We all decided to order Taco Entrées, which came with two tacos, rice, and beans. We were able to choose from a list and mix or match our tacos. I loved that they offered vegetarian options, so I tried the Cauliflower Taco and the Veggie Taco. My husband and mom tried the Beef Taco, Chicken Taco, and Pork al Pastor. We also ordered Juan-tons, a fun food fusion--roasted corn, poblano peppers, onions, and cheddar all wrapped in a wonton pocket and fried. So delicious! There was a sauce bar with over 30 different sauces (I tried to count them, but lost track). Our meals were packed in to-go containers, but they still had great presentation, making them Instagram-worthy. The bright colors from the red cabbage and pineapple not only looked good but also brought the flavors together. The tacos were generously stuffed. My favorite was the Cauliflower Taco--the cauliflower was perfectly fried and not greasy. I'll definitely be ordering it again. Overall, check out Pica Chica Tacos! While we went for tacos, they offer so much more to try, including burritos, chimichangas, burrito bowls, and desserts.

This past time, it didn't taste fresh. The lobster was a little chewy. It's been great every other time I've ordered it, so I will try again!

We randomly…read morecame here (but the place across the street looked good too!), and had a good meal with excellent service Olin a relaxed atmosphere which is exactly what we wanted. We were after lunch but before dinner (around 3:00) so it wasn't busy. We sat at a high top On the bar area and our server was the bartender. He was excellent throughout and checked in often - we appreciate that. It wasn't busy but we've all seen others just BS with co-workers when they're slow versus this. We started by sharing a bowl of lobster bisque and it was excellent! Thick, with a nice sherry overtone and small bits of lobster - lots of them. We both really liked it - better than most others we've had. I had stuffed shrimp abd liked the stuffing - not too dense with a little bit of crab, shrimp and breadcrumbs and whatever else - it all worked well! Very good stuffed shrimp BUT, just 3 shrimp. I thought that was small for an entree that I don't believe was a lunch plate or anything. Fries were good and so were the fresh julienne vegetables. My wife had the regular size lobster roll and just like mine - hers was excellent but a tad smaller than what we get closer to home. But lobster tasted fresh and not overcooked; very tender and flavorful. We had excellent food & service. The decor is a tad dated but that always seems to work and be the way it is with seafood restaurants in shore areas.
