My favorite spot for Mexican! There is both indoor and outdoor seating and the restaurant has a really cool vibe. The food is fantastic, I highly recommend their table side guacamole. They have a great selection of tequilas and margaritas as well! I recommend making a reservation but finding a seat at the bar is always a possibility too.

Take a deep dive into the life of famous author Mark Twain by touring his family home in Hartford. It's educational but also just a remarkable sight to see. They offer two tours, both a traditional as well as one lead by an actor which really immerses you in what the day to day life of the author and his family was like. I recommend making a reservation of their website ahead of time.

Fantastic art museum right down the road. I also recommend just spending some time strolling around Yale's campus. The architecture is so cool and so old. It's a sight to see.
