Palma - Ansonia

Nice little place in town. I recently came from long island to CT for work purposes. I'm used to there being bodegas or delis on every corners, found this place close to the job and decided to give it a try. I was happy to see some Latinas working there I knew the food was going to be good. I ordered beef stew over rice, beans and potatoes and pickled onions. It was great beef was tender and full of flavors. Recommend going I believe the girl at the register said she was from long island as well. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20

Stopped in for dinner tonight 10/2/23 at Palma's new location with a bigger dining room area with the same great taste of Latin food, our server was great the ambiance was nice. The array of dishes and sides were individually flavored giving you an explosive mix of authentic cuisine so before leaving I also took 2 flan desserts to go which I say are the best made in the valley so make sure you stop by try it for your self ! First visit in 2022* Latin cuisine at its best right here ! I smelled the food emanating through the doors onto the sidewalk, it stopped me in my tracks. I came in to see what's going on and to my surprise the different foods available with a great assortment of hot food to cold Ceviche to classic Latin desserts! Dine in or take out also on delivery apps. Recommend everything! We'll be back on Saturday for the Beef tripe which is a special available only on Saturday, heads up for that classic Latin dish authentic flavor. Thanks for a great experience !

The staff was extremely kind and accommodating, and insisted on bringing my food over to the table I was sitting at with my 4 year old daughter. And the food is so so so good!! I only tried the pork shoulder, yellow rice and beans, plantains, chicken soup, and tres leches, but I can’t wait to try more of what they offer, especially the empanadas, which are big and crispy. I got the chicken soup for my sick daughter, but it was so good I kept asking her for bites. I used to go to Waterbury for this kind of food, so I’m very happy to have it here in the valley now!

The food is fantastic in all honesty. The new location is huge improvement from their last location which wasn't bad at all but the new place is better. The food is very delicious and the staff is very friendly and attentive. My only qualm with this place is the portions. I understand inflation is a thing but the protein to rice proportions are abysmal. Most of the container is rice with one piece of fish and it's not a big piece either. The food is really good but the portions of meat need to be better for the prices being paid. Service: Take out Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
