"The best Mexican food in CT. The whole place has an authentic vibe to it and the interior reminds you of Cali Mexican restaurants. The food was really good. The nachos were super fresh and plentiful and the mole sauce put the over the top. The tacos were great and they cook a mean Ny steak. Outstanding atmosphere, food and service."

Excellent food. Highly recommend the lobster tacos. Service was perfect. Ambiance was very nice. It can get a little noisy in the restaurant. Also get the Yucca fries the dipping sauce is great to go with it.

AMAZING!! I can't say enough how much I love this restaurant. I make the drive from NH just to eat here. The chili relleno and truffle yuca fries are my two favorite dishes! The drinks, service, and atmosphere are great as well. Highly recommend checking this place out!

"I bicycle to Mystic once a year and, for the past few years, have always looked forward to ending one of my nights at Sift. I 've had some phenomenal baked goods in my life, so I 'm not going to go overboard and say that Sift is the best bakery I 've ever been to; however, I WILL say that it 's right up there with the best. Aside from the brownies and other pastries, it 's the VIBE of Sift that accounts for about 80% of its awesomeness. Located just off Rt. 1 in downtown Mystic, within a short walk of some really good restaurants, it has a wraparound porch with outdoor seating that 's ideal for people watching. At certain times of the day, the bells of a nearby church can almost lull you to sleep while you 're sipping your coffee. The line at Sift can be long, and in my experience, they often run out of stuff well before closing time, but it should be noted that my experience is pretty much limited to Sunday and Monday nights. Overall, I highly recommend Sift to all Mystic visitors."

"Great Service. Nice selection on menu. Fish tacos here are delish! Went this night for pasta night. I had the Chicken Parmigiana. It was really good. I got a nice size piece of chicken, smothered in cheese. Sauce was a little on the sweeter side than I like. But I enjoyed it. Pasta night $12, worth it."

"We were seated at a table by the window which was nice BUT the table was tiny!and we are not over sized! We ordered a bottle of sparkling water and there was not enough room at the table when our appetizer came. The beer was warm and the white wine was warm as well. Service was just okay. One waiter had a mask and gloves on which is fine due to the past years with COVID but he kept pulling down the mask to speak to his coworkers. And never changing the gloves. I work in healthcare and that is disgusting!"

"Found this Mystic gem through Yelp stopped by for breakfast with my family! For a Friday morning, we waited around 20 minutes to be seated. The view near the restaurant was beautiful, so the 20 minute wait flew by! Service here is top notch everyone is super friendly kind. We each ordered a different version of their famous eggs benedict, and each one was consistent in quality and delicious! I ordered the asparagus and crab eggs benny, and I was quite surprised by the amount of crab meat they put in. I only wish that each order came with either a bit of the home fries or maybe a side salad something to provide a bit of contrast every so often. We did end up ordering the home fries as a side, they were really good! The blueberry buttermilk pancakes here are also a good option they were so fluffy! Will definitely be back if I'm ever in the area!"
