To be clear, the food was good. A little more dry than normal- but decent. But. . Very small and crowded, very expensive ( twice what I would expect) and no happy hour - which they have discontinued. I liked the food, but would have rathered gone to Margaritas in Mystic.

Fine dining, great service, and excellent margaritas. Great atmosphere, small and cozy. Innovative menu. We did have to wait for a table, even on a Thursday night in the spring, but we were able to score a seat at the tiny bar so time wasn't wasted!!

We live close by and have visited Milagro previously but it now has become a solid regular choice. The service is friendly, food is excellent, prices are fair, and the atmosphere is neat. It is small but that is the attraction and provides a great dining experience

We absolutely LOVE Milagro. Without question, it's our favorite restaurant in Stonington Borough. The menu always includes new specials that are reliably delicious. The margaritas are among the best I've ever had (tip: try the smokey margarita -- it's tasty!). The small, intimate space creates a great dining experience. And the service is always personal and friendly.

We've been coming here for a while now The Baha fish tacos are superb Yes it is crowded and the bar is right there The food is really sublime I have read the "terrible" reviews and have never experienced that disappointment On zagat, I'd rank it 24-27. And that is based on about 10 visits Genuine, artistic Mexican cuisine

Great chicken mole and margaritas.Often crowded due to its small size, so I would recommend eating dinner before 6 p.m. to avoid waiting.

One of my new favorites in Stonington. As others have mentioned, this is a tiny restaurant so if you have a large party you need to get there really early for both lunch or dinner. Place is always packed. There isn't anything on the menu that I don't love. Fresh food served in a cozy little spot. Margaritas are wonderful... More

One of our favorite restaurants in Stonington. A little different Mexican menu, good food, excellently prepared. Warm atmosphere with good service in a simple atmosphere. Beautiful little Connecticut sea village. Fun place to wander before or after you meal.

This is one of our favourite places to dine in the Mystic-Stonington area. It serves fresh real Mexican food (not Tex-mex) and has fresh juice margaritas made to order. Sadly, due to complaining neghbours, it no longer has an outdoor dining area and is therefore no longer dog friendly. Another sad update is that while the food is consistently good,... More

This place is great. It's quite tiny but they produce food with big taste. The food they make is more mexican than tex mex. The Baja Fish Tacos are the dish to try. Also recommended are the chili rellenos. They also infuse their own tequila so they have many special margaritas.
