If you really want to taste a good O chicken a la plancha o chicken breast on the grill or in Spanish, Pechuga a la plancha, you must try this place. The frijoles or beans are mad delicious. They have a certain flavor that is rich and delicious. The chicken, also mad delicious with its juice. The salad was great. I highly recommend this place if you happen to be in Stamford, CT. Not too far from downtown. - Eugenio Gonzalez
