Canggio Restaurant/Bar in Connecticut

"Drive about 40 minutes and it was a great experience. My son loved his food and my breakfast was off the charts amazing. Service was great, everyone was so kind and friendly with my son as well. Can’t wait to go back!!"

"Canggio was such a great Google find! I was trying to find a mid-way point for a friend and I to grab a bite and drinks. I visited back on 12/11/25 in the evening but I kept the receipt so I could write this review. Our server Elena was BEYOND fabulous with great recommendations. She was very patient, understanding, and accommodating. Elena gave us great suggestions for drinks and menu items and she did not steer us wrong! We ordered: papaya margaritas, classic margaritas, empanadas, parihuela, chaufa, bisteck chorrillana, and churros for dessert. The atmosphere and decor matched the amazing customer service. The bathrooms and front of the house were clean and organized. The lighting is dimly lit in the evening but made for a great ambiance and vibe. 10/10 in all categories! I will definitely come back for the menu items we didn’t get to try that night. Shout out to the back and front of the house, this is an excellent establishment."

"A restaurant that had fallen off our radar in the past couple years…Canggio! It randomly popped into my head last night and took me by surprise bc it hasnt been in our rotation at all lately. So off we went, and man….Im SO GLAD we did!! What a wonderful dining experience! The bartender Alaina (sp?) was incredible. Present, attentive, knowledgeable and willing to make a drink that I offered. She is very good at what she does and it shows. Her expertise and the willingness of the owner/chef to come and chat with us made our night. Then there’s the FOOD. OMG. You can taste the love and effort that goes into this food. We started with the ceviche trio. Each one was so fresh and bright. Jay got the flank steak and I got the octopus. I have to say the octopus was cooked to perfection and the presentation was unique w the spinach mashed potato wave. Absolutely delicious. She even suggested a wine that would properly accompany my dish. We usually skip dessert, but we couldn’t pass up the cream filled churros with ice cream and chocolate raspberry sauce. Again, perfect. I cannot say enough about Canggio. Just GO. So glad we did!"

"I definitely will be coming back. The food, the drinks, the atmosphere is absolutely mesmerizing. From friendly faces and service from the second we walked in we were made to feel like family. It was an amazing place to have dinner for my wife and I. The people at Canggio make it so easy to navigate the menu. We will be coming back and recommending it to anyone in the area or around. We came from Northern Vermont and to have the experience of Peru and Italy for the first time was absolutely amazing."

"Food here was DELICIOUS. I ordered chaufa with pollo a la brasa! It was so good. Also, REAL FRESH CHINOLA (passion fruit) juice. LOVE IT! Definitely if you are in Norwich, eat in this place. Staff was super attentive and nice and accommodating. Great music too."

"What a find! The waitress was fantastic walking us through the entire menu. Her suggestions were fantastic! The sauces amazing. We will be back! Many more menu items we need to try!"

"Anytime I'm going back to Norwich, I'll stop by again. Their Calamari is so delicious. The food was exquisite. The service was amazing, Tyler is lovely and make our dinner more delightful. He suggested us to try their pumpkin spice Martini. So gooooood. The atmosphere is so nice, the whole team is amazing, they deserve the 5 stars and I'll come back again."

"This review is long overdue! I am a newlywed, and my husband and I went to Canggio’s the day after our wedding for brunch. Our server, Olivia was amazing. She was sweet and friendly, and when I mentioned that we had just gotten married the day before, she expressed how happy she was for us and was so sweet and genuine. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the Belgium waffles with fresh fruit, and a frittata with smoked salmon and it was the best breakfast food that I've had in a while. My husband and I both agreed that the food and service was absolutely divine, and we expressed this to our server numerous times as she came over to check on us and make sure we had everything we needed. Then, when we were ready to leave and asked for the check, we were completely surprised to find that our check had already been taken care of. We looked up in confusion, and another staff member, possibly the owner told us that our meal was on them and congratulated us on our wedding. We were so touched by everyone kindness. Thank you for an amazing meal, and for the genuine kindness of your entire staff. You are amazing, and will be back!"
