I got the fish and shrimp. The food was so good. I ate it on the way home. The strawberry cornbread was probably the best part 10 out of 10 would revisit. The service was amazing.

The fish and shrimp are slamming. I've been looking for a place that makes fried fish and enough food for myself and littles when we're in town! This place definitely makes it worth it. I also ordered candied yams. Everything was on point!

Best place to visit on a Wednesday/Thursday night for chicken wings, mac and cheese, and rice. Best flavors are Maple Bacon BBQ and Honey Jerk if you like saucy wings. Very friendly customer service, especially the homie up front. Can't go wrong with trap chicken.

When I walked up to the store, I saw a couple happily munching chicken in their car. Good sign. I ordered two fried chickens with mac & cheese and collard greens for my wife and daughter. I got the fried shrimp and fish combo with mac & cheese and collard greens. Unanimous decision, the food was great. Everything was fried to order so be prepared to wait a bit. They'll call your cell if you'd rather sit in your car. Everything comes out hot which is nice as it was still piping hot when I got home. The collard greens disappeared in an instant and the mac & cheese was yummy. It even had nice melted cheese on top. The shrimp were amazing and the fried fish was exactly what I wanted. I'll be back there again. Oh, they have a Pac-Man machine.

Very good food. I had the honey Cajun wings which were flavorful and meaty. The Mac and cheese was not dry and the candied yams were very sweet. The location is at a shopping center and there is some parking. There are some seats inside and there is a Pac-Man machine inside. I waited about 20 minutes for the food and they call when it's ready. I do not live in or near Connecticut but I will go back here.

Found this place by accident with 2 friends and the 3 of us were all very impressed. Ok so me and 2 friends decided to meet up at Rootsman kitchen which is one of my favorite restaurants in the world. Best Jeek chicken on planet earth BUT Rootsman was closed. I believe they traveled to Jamaica so my friend TJ said that Trap Chicken next door is supposed to be good and that he knows 2 people who both really liked it. It didnt like much from the outside but we were already here so we decided to step in and try it. The owner was very friendly and inviting. We grabbed some menus and the 2 of them decided to go with chicken. I went with a burger meal just to switch it up but I asked him to use some hot jerk sauce to kick it up a few notches. We sat and waited as everything is made fresh. Food came out and everyone got quiet as they were focused on their plates. All I heard was chomping and some satisfied type groans. I asked them how their meals were and they said amazing and not one thing they could complain or say could be improved. Main dishes and sides were on point with the flavors and the cooking. Top notch spot. Not sure when I will be back in CT but Trap Chicken has just been added to my favorite CT food spots and we will be back. Thanks guys
