" Had dinner here last weekend and was quite impressed overall! The food tasted fresh, especially the fish tacos. They had just the right amount of seasoning. I do think the chips and salsa should be complimentary at this price point; $9 feels a bit steep. The environment was lively, and the decor was charming, adding to the experience. I will be back but would love to see a few adjustments in pricing and portions. " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried La Llorona to celebrate a friend's promotion. The ambiance was elegant, and the service attentive. The menu featured some good twists that I appreciate, however, my fish tacos were overcooked. That made the meal slightly disappointing for me. I do plan to return, as I would love to experience other dishes that sounded wonderful on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited La Llorona expecting great things, given the reviews, but I left feeling underwhelmed. The one star is for the service, which was polite but slow. My taco wasn’t the flavor explosion I was counting on. I ordered a vegetarian option with black beans, and it tasted very plain. The ambiance was nice, but I want to go to a Mexican restaurant for authentic flavors, not just a colorful setup. I might give it one more try, though. " (*Curated Review*)

" Enjoyed my visit here. The slight wait for a table turned out to be worth it. The tamales were perfect, and the ambiance was fantastic. Our server was friendly, although she seemed a little overwhelmed during peak hours. Overall, I would recommend trying La Llorona for a taste of something a little different in Niantic! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pretty mixed experience at La Llorona. The tacos were decent, but they didn’t have a ton of flavor. I was surprised because the ambiance was lively and the service was friendly. I think I expected more based on the hype. However, I’ll give it another try to see if it's just a case of an off night. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience was delightful! The festive atmosphere, with bright colors and traditional music, added to our celebratory mood. I ordered a burrito and was amazed by its size; I had leftovers for days. My husband ordered the steak fajitas, and he raved about how tender the meat was. Despite being busy, the service felt attentive and friendly. Overall, if you want authentic dishes with a festive flair, this is the place! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a treasure this place is! From the captivating ambiance filled with rustic decor to the delightful staff who genuinely care about your experience. The combination of flavors in the mole enchiladas is one of the best I’ve encountered in all my travels! Yes, the prices are a bit higher, but who can put a price on quality? This is a destination for food lovers! " (*Curated Review*)
