The food and service were excellent. Atmosphere was pleasant. I would dine here again. I recommend it if you're in the area.

My wife and I met a friend this afternoon for lunch at Aunt Chilada's. I was told it is under new ownership by our very friendly host Joe. We sat near one of the fireplaces with a nice (gas) fire going. The last time I was in this restaurant was after a softball game in Cheshire close to 40 years ago. Not much has changed in the building. It was very bright inside with the winter sun streaming inside the dinning area. The upstairs was as I last saw it large and open space with a bar. Down to lunch, we sat near the fireplace downstairs in the bar area, very comfortable. Joe came over and let us know they had Empanadas for a special, that was good enough for all three of us. A few couples came in and were seated and a few came and sat at the bar. Our food arrived, beautiful golden brown crus

We stopped at Aunt Chilada’s on our way back from a warehouse pickup in North Haven. The Mountain View from the restaurant is beautiful. Ed was very friendly. He offered to add variety of vegetables to our order of tostadas once he learnt we didn’t eat meat. Our order was: Jarritos- pineapple & guava, Esquites, Tostadas. Two of us shared the corn and the tostadas and we weren’t able to finish all the food. The quantity and quality of food is nice. Overall nice experience. Would love to visit in summers for the outdoor seating.

Service was friendly and attentive. Food took 40-50 minutes to arrives to the table. Sunday afternoon, restaurant not being crowded, was disappointed food ordered took so long to be ready. Did not received everything we ordered. Food was underwhelming. Beverage (alcoholic drinks) were awful. Will not be returning to this location anytime soon.
