We eat here once and awhile and find they have a very good veggie menu. We especially love the veggie beef satay. The staff is very helpful and will custom make the family value meal to veggie.

I almost didn't want to review this restaurant because I like the fact that is a hidden gem in the valley.
The atmosphere is quite lacking and the counter ordering isn't my favorite, but you forget about everything the minute you take a bite of your food. They use the most fresh ingredients and I haven't had a meal there that isn't delicious! This mexican food might not be totally authentic, but they offer a great variety of standard mexican dishes. Their guacamole and salsas are made fresh on site, and you can tell the minute you dip into them with your complimentary tortilla chips. Prices are so affordable and portions are the perfect size for someone with an appetite. Don't be put off when you pull into the parking lot and wonder why you came to this "hole-in-the-wall." It is really fabulous food. Make sure you bring cash, as they don't take any cards. Also, don't confuse this restaurant with "baja fresh" which is a chain that opened near by.

Sales and service do a decent job, although they usually mess up the interior of the car because the parking lot is an unpaved, often muddy mess.
Pros: Decent prices, good inventory, good trade-ins.
Cons: Run down building and parking lot, "agressive" service department.

This place is very convenient if you live in Canton and want someone close by. The rates are more than reasonable yet few ammenities help keep them down...i.e.no phones in the room. My mother in law is very clean and she says the same thing about this place.

paqrt of a chain
Chicken fajitas are a generous platter of grilled white meat, peppers and onions, accompanied by rice and beans, sour cream and guacamole and tortillas. Chipotle Glazed Chicken Salad includes chicken, chipolte sauce, roasted corn, poblano and red peppers, grilled pineapple, sliced avocado and cilantro. The Baja Ensalada, available with choice of chicken, steak or shrimp, is a toss of romaine lettuce, Pico de Gallo and shredded cheese. Tortilla soup is hearty, spicy and dotted with chucks of fresh avocado and cilantro.
Burritos come in two sizes - regular, which is large enough for two, and "Dos Manos," which is huge. Fillings include various combinations of beans, rice, chicken, beef and veggies. Low carb-ers can order a "Bare Burrito," served sans tortilla.
Tacos are available with similar fillings and are topped with lettuce, cheese, salsa and diced tomato. For those who like to take it up a notch, Baja offers a help-yourself bar of salsas in mild, medium and hot; chopped fresh cilantro and mild and hot peppers.
A kid's menu includes mini burritos, quesadillas and nachos, and Baja Fresh also offers party packs feeding six or more.

Larsens Ace Hardware is one of the best local hardware stores I frequent.
They carry a complete line of household, hardware, lawn and garden supplies.
The difference is how helpful they ALWAYS are.
There has NEVER been a time where I walked out of their store wondering what to use on what.

A funky, squat building between a package store and a Citgo station, Junior's looked pretty promising. Outside picnic tables are available for eating in warmer weather, and the side of the building features a fiery painting of flames along with the words "flame-broiled burgers" and "hot dogs."
All told you can choose from among 13 burger options, and that doesn't include the veggie burger or the turkey burger. The Mexico burger, for instance, features cheddar cheese, sour cream, taco sauce, jalapeño peppers, olives and tomato, all on a hard roll.

There are good reasons why pizza rules in the world of takeout foods - it's fast, easy, universally appealing and even tastes good cold. One of the newer pizza emporiums in the Farmington Valley area, Joe Pizza, offers a wide range of interesting pies, along with unusual appetizers and salads.
Pizzas emerge from the brick oven with smoky, chewy, charred crusts. The onion lover's pie is piled with caramelized onions and bacon. Spinach Patch pizza is topped with sautéed spinach, garlic and red peppers, all topped with fresh mozzarella. If you like seafood, try the pizza alla pescatore, made with shrimp, clams, squid, plum tomatoes, garlic and herbs.
Joe Pizza also offers grinders, sandwiches and pasta entrees, along with burgers that include topping choices of lettuce, fried onions, peppers, tomatoes, mushrooms, chipotle sauce and hot pepper relish at no extra charge.
