Best Authentic Restaurants in Meriden

Heard about restaurant from internet search. Booked reservation and upon arrival, you are greeted by the sounds of fantastic latino music playing. you enter and the ambiance is warm and decorated with murals. The service was amazing, specifically Debra made the food journey fantastic and enjoyable. Each plate was presented wonderfully, and every item was delicious. Specifically, we had the ceviche, chorizo quesadilla, shrimp tostones. For dinner, we had the seafood paella which was a huge serving. Lastly, the coconut flan and passionfruit cake topped off the meal perfectly. We will be going back and making plans to bring friends.

Delicious food, outstanding service! Drinks were perfect. We made reservations for Christmas Eve and La Piazza did NOT disappoint!! It was a bit chilly inside and somewhat of a tight squeeze with seating. But we overlooked those and had a wonderful meal.

This is a nice experience that is consistently reliable for tasty food with a good variety of choices.

Fire at the Ridge is hands down my favorite place to eat. The food quality and the setting are perfect for an intimate dinner with friends or business associates. The fire pit seating particularly is a great way to spend an evening with friends catching up and enjoying a good meal. The service can get overwhelmed on busy nights translating to delays in ordering and food and drink delivery occasionally, but the staff is always friendly and helpful and the food and drinks are always more than worth the wait!
