Mecha-uma

I got to say this is an amazing place, I usually hop around from small Japanese restaurants just to try and experience it all but by far this one stands out. I have never left a review for a restaurant before but I just want people to know about this place, super friendly people and great food. I think everyone should try it.

If you are looking for authentic, delicious, and affordable Japanese food in southwestern Connecticut, Mecha-Uma is the real deal! Mr. and Mrs. Hirata are exceptionally kind, personable hosts, and they are all too happy to welcome you and recommend a dish from their daily menu based on your tastes and preferences. My go-to favorite is the beef curry with chicken katsu (cutlet), which is served over a generous portion of perfectly cooked rice, a large scoop of mashed potatoes, and just enough mixed green salad with light dressing to fulfill your veggie quota. All this home-cooked food for the price of a fast food 'value' meal and the decision is truly a no-brainer. If you like Japanese food, or are simply curious to try it, head straight to Mecha-Uma. It is very easy to get to right off exit 43 on I95, and there is a small table outside with a couple chairs if you want to eat your meal hot and fresh on the spot, which is my recommendation to experience the friendly service and a little bit of Japan on Campbell Avenue!
