"We always get take out so I cannot comment on the atmosphere but I believe most people do the same. Food is always good. I do appreciate the changes to the menu once in a while. We enjoy it every time we go!"
"I absolutely LOVE this place!!!! I’m vegan snd get the Dazed snd confused bowl. They substituted the meat for my choice of something else!!! The Dazed and Confused bowl has a flavorful rice as a base, fried plantains,pico de Gallo, sauté mushrooms, delicious crispy Brussel sprouts, chickpeas, as well as a cilantro, chili lime sauce that’s out of this world! I added photos just the other day comparing to the ones I had posted a year ago. I have to say the food has definitely changed and not for the better. It’s as though the recipes have changed or the people in the back cooking have changed, don’t get me wrong it’s still good but it’s not how it was when it was on the Berlin Turnpike. Please go back to the way you were doing it!!!! I would drive from Middletown at least once or twice a month to get it as well as my job in cromwell ordering large orders, not anymore. Ill try again and see."
"I love this place! It's a super tasty, filling, and healthy meal. My favorite is the "Dazed & Confused" rice bowl. The mushrooms in the bowl are my favorite part. It's also a great deal. Highly recommend coming here if you are in the area; I always do when I'm in town."
"So where EPG executes well is in vibe and fittin with their space... rotisserie chicken w/a latin flair. The whole chain is lively and inviting right when you walk and and you are met w/a large colorful menu that has an great mix of options to choose from. The servers are very friendly and are quick to give you a run down of their offerings. Sooo many things sound great and we ended up grabbing a chicken dinner and a taco comb... The mains here are pretty legit...the rotisserie chicken has a great flavor and the birds are a nice sice. They run a touch dry but you can choose from an array of side dips to add extra punch to your meal you cluckers (some sweet, some spicy, all pretty salty) . The tacos are fairly large w/ chunks of rotisserie chicken bustin thru there. One was better than the other but all n all pretty good (spicy was so so). Where this place falls a lil shy is on the sides which arent bad but they aren't really good either. They're just kinda there, the rice was alright although salty and dry (maybe it was just really old) and the corn seemed a lil old too but just had the same chimichurri n pickled onions slapped on. Overall the food was solid n probably would stop by again if in the area and hungry but it wasn't anything I would go out of my way for."
"Wow wow wow Full transparency, at first glance the prices kind of caught my eye. Nothing crazy but more than a trip to Taco Bell. But then we opened our boxes and BOOM, worth it!! And then the first bites and we’ve been sold for life (Taco Bell who?) The portions are beyond expectation so you get your moneys worth hands down. Presentation is amazing. Flavor is incredible. There’s some sort of lemon pop to the sweet potato wedges that just works so well. We will be back !!!"
