My husband and I came in for the first time ever today and the food was deliciously amazing. Have to say I saw the reviews and I knew I had to come try the food. My husband got pigs feet and I got the beef stew..my goodness it tastes wonderful! Carmen is the owner and she was every bit as lovely as you would expect. She is very warm and welcoming and cares about her customers. It actually felt like we were treated and welcomed like family. We did get some tres leches to go, so I can't wait to get home and enjoy that! Please try this place if you're in the area try this place.

Browsing through GrubHub and wanting to try something new, this came up as one of my options. I have never been here so I wanted to try a mix of everything. I ordered a container of pernil (pulled pork), pig feet stew with rice, and fried chicken.Right away I regretted my decision for not adding rice to the pulled pork. That meat was so juicy and succulent. The absolute best pulled pork I have ever had in my life! The flavor was great and the bonus piece of crispy skin brought it all together. The pig feet stew was everything I was hoping it would be. Soft chewy skin, meat falling off the bones. The rice had great flavor as well. Perfect accompaniment to the pig feet stew. Fried chicken was moist on the inside, crispy on the out, almost like a chicharrone but not dried out at all. The brine they used allowed the chicken to stay moist on the inside. This will be a new regular spot for me. The owner even called me when I placed my order to ensure everything was right as GrubHub has been confusing options for patrons. Overall, a 10 out of 10! There are many Puerto Rican food spots in the area but this place does not compare. It stands out from the rest! You've had the rest, now try the absolute best!

Incredible place, warm and friendly and the most delicious fresh Puerto Rican food. Loved the vibe and the food and am definitely going back. Was just there yesterday for lunch with friends and want to go back again already to try more of their stews. The folks who run the place are incredibly warm, friendly and generous. Glad that we were in the area and discovered this spot!

Amazing food, super nice people, and friendly environment. The food reminds me of my grandma’s cooking and it feels like you’re at home when you eat.

The little gem is amazing. Food is delicious and mouth watering. Must try the potato balls! (I'm not sure if that's exactly what they are called)

My husband and I were frequent customers of delicious Puerto Rican restaurant in bridgeport for years! They closed down and we were lost trying to find the same quality food in the state. Just as we nearly gave up hope, someone recommend Familia. I drove all the way to Ansonia and we were not dissapointed! I have to say Familia is the same, if not better! I think we found our new home! The food was delicious, and authentic, and the service was lovely. The portions were extremely generous! The meat was so tender and flavorful, and the rice was beautifully done. We will be back as soon as we are hungry again! Amazing food! Familia is a hidden gem! Thank you!
