Mi Familia Restaurant

Oh my gosh, you won’t believe the Puerto Rican food I had at Mi Familia’s! It was the best I’ve ever had since I moved to Connecticut. I’m usually a bit skeptical of restaurants, but I was in the area with my family for work and I was craving a hearty meal. Mi Familia’s was clean and inviting, and the women working there were busy but polite and attentive. The food was absolutely incredible! It reminded me of my childhood in the kitchen with my grandmother. I was so pleased. And the cherry on top was the seating that displayed God’s name. It was such a beautiful reflection of God’s Grace and Glory over this place. Unfortunately I did not get to take a photo of the food but it was worth every penny.

We are very blessed . . . That our area of Southeastern Connecticut has such a large Puerto Rican population - - or we may have never tasted the wonderful food that this restaurant offers. One of the best, if not THE VERY BEST, restaurants in the local area. My only concerns: 1) I didn’t see a bathroom, but I didn’t need one 🤷🏽‍♂️; 2) we could have used a knife for the pork stick, but we should have asked. The staff is extremely helpful. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽Wonderful designs, with lots of inspiration. ♥️♥️♥️ Now for the food: - Chicken Steam Plate: Chicken leg, rice & beans, fried plantain pieces. Chicken super moist, rice was outstanding, & plantains were very tasty. - Beef Stew: very good, similar to Filipino Beef Mechado. - Pork Stick: great tasting pork - - for me, I would have liked a bit mor

What I appreciate most about this restaurant besides their food, is their consistency. I’m addicted to their beef empanadas, the rice is delicious, everything is so authentic and fresh. It’s my favorite place.

Food was delicious, I ordered white rice with beef stew and yellow plantains it was delicious..my husband ordered fried fish with pana mofongo. Very clean, friendly staff, great prices. Will definitely go back on my next visit to New London ct.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Mi Familia Restaurant is hands down the best Puerto Rican food in the Valley. I’ve tried many spots in the area was left very disappointed and nothing comes close to the authenticity and flavor you get here. Every dish tastes like it was made with love, tradition, and pride, just like back home. We had the Mofongo with camarones, Orejas de cerdo , alcapurrias, pastillos and arroz con pollo guiso, The owner, Carmen, is very kind, welcoming, and truly involved in the community. You can tell this place is more than just a restaurant to her. it’s family, culture, and service all wrapped into one. That personal touch makes a huge difference and keeps people coming back. you won’t regret it. Once you eat here, you’ll keep coming back. 🇵🇷🔥
