MEXCLA Restaurant & Bar!

About a month ago my grandfather and I popped into Mexcla restaurant & bar for a tacos and margaritas lunch and we were not disappointed! The staff was friendly, the vibes were immaculate, and the food was phenomenal! I ordered the first tacos & a mango marg and it was so good that we ended up going back a few weeks later! On our second visit I ordered ceviche, and it might have been the best ceviche I’ve ever eaten! I’ve already got plans to be there for Cinco de Mayo & if you’re in CT I highly recommend you do the same!

... Read moreDuring my visits to Mexcla Restaurant & Bar, I found that the experience was about more than just the delicious food. The menu offers a well-rounded selection beyond tacos and ceviche, including popular items like guacamole, quesadillas, and authentic Mexican elotes, as indicated by some local signage. It’s clear the restaurant loves to bring traditional Mexican flavors with a contemporary twist. One of the highlights for me was the tequila selection, which seemed to be a key aspect of their beverage program. If you're a fan of tequila, trying their crafted cocktails or even sipping some high-quality tequila neat is a must. The atmosphere is vibrant yet welcoming, making it a great spot for both casual lunches and special occasions. I especially appreciate how the staff engage with guests, making recommendations and sharing their passion for the food they serve. Their friendly approach adds to the overall vibrant yet relaxed vibe that makes Mexcla stand out. Planning a visit around Cinco de Mayo is a brilliant idea, as the restaurant usually amps up the celebration with festive specials. For visitors new to Mexican cuisine, Mexcla offers both classic dishes and some adventurous options, so there’s something for everyone. Pairing dishes like nachos or empanadas with a mango margarita enhances the authentic Mexican dining experience. Returning multiple times after great first impressions is a testament to their consistent quality. In summary, Mexcla is more than just a place to eat—it’s a spot where you can enjoy quality Mexican food and beverages in a friendly setting. Whether you’re a local or just visiting Connecticut, this restaurant and bar should definitely be on your list for an enjoyable meal out.
