Amazing Spanish food. Everything was freshly made, some items bring brought out as we were ordering. A lot of food in the large portion size, enough for two people and maybe leftovers depending on how much one eats. Can't go wrong with a home cooked, authentic food

Wonderful, friendly service. I am obsessed with their rellenos de papá, alcapurrias and morcillas. They are very clean and wear gloves at all times while serving food. Love supporting local small businesses. Stop by and grab a fritura. You won't regret it!

10 Stars for this amazing gem in New Britain, if you looking for authenticity you'll find it in every bite! I love this place it is my go to for Spanish food

Best sweet plantains in the world and Spanish rice.Just trust me on this.The place is small and it might not look too much from the outside but after you try the food you won't be disappointed.The owner is really nice and as a small family shop you have to give them praise after still staying in business with so many Spanish food restaurants in New Britain!!!

This is my new favorite spot. To my advantage criollisimo was closed although, was supposed to be open and I really wanted Spanish food- I have been to Mofongo and I find it horrible- googled this place on a whim and was so happy to see it open. I got chicken with yellow rice y gandules and my boyfriend got salmon with white rice and habichuelas. My chicken was so moist and flavorful and the rice- amazing. I also got a side of potato salad and it is the best I have ever eaten. My boyfriends salmon was so flavorful and fresh with peppers and other veggies included. The man at the counter was so sweet and took the time to show us all the food and tell us what it was. I will be here all the time! Gracias!

This place is a gem!!! The staff is super polite, pricing is amazing and the food is always fresh and flavorful. The owner is Argentinian and the chef is Dominican. We drive 20mins just to get it!

We started a lunch club at work with a few coworkers...mission: to have some fun and try new restaurants. I have been craving Spanish food for the longest time!! So I was pleased when we had our first lunch at Negrita's today. A little hole in the wall place in New Britain, you can barely see the restaurant name past the huge tree in front of the restaurant. Waking inside, you get the strong feeling that the space used to be occupied by a Subway...same booths and layout. Seating is limited and booths only hold two people so if you're with a group, prepare to split up or take your food elsewhere to eat. Nothing is labeled and there are no menus, just a menu board up on the wall. I was not very adventurous on my first trip, but ordered yellow rice and beans with 1/4 rotisserie chicken. I also ordered one of those fried mashed potato balls with meat inside. No idea what it's called but I've always loved them. Another coworker also ordered the chicken, one got spare ribs, and one just got rice, beans and plantains. I really wish I had gotten some plantains!!!! My food was reasonable at $8.95 for the meal, the mashed potato ball and a bottle of water. I definitely have enough leftover for another meal. The chicken was moist inside but the skin was crispy. Perfect! The yellow rice and beans were fabulous. It's a perfect spot for a quick lunch because you don't have to wait long. I will definitely be back to try some of the other meats and the bacalaitos...curious to see how they compare to my Italian grandmother's codfish fritters that she makes every Christmas!!

It wouldn't hurt to know a little spanish when going here, but the staff know enough english to take your order. They are friendly and welcoming. I chose the $6 Negrita's Special, which is "meat with rice and option of beans". The woman taking my order was surprised I chose stew goat as my meat dish. She raised her eyebrows. I guess I look very American to her. Everything is cooked and ready to serve, and not made to order, but the food still packs a punch that reminds me of my mom's Cruzan cooking! This is a (mostly Perto Rican) latin-influenced restaurant. Check this place out! Also, it's worth adding that Negrita is term of endearment in the 21st century, so don't let the name scare you away.
