Walked in with a mission to find the best ice cream pops in town. Oreo ice pops did not disappoint. 10/10 highly recommend.

It is now a Mexican Taco etc. restaurant. The Chilean and the bakery are long gone (except for empanadas and Tres Leches cake).Excellent tacos, biria tacos, huevos rancheros, ....History: "NZ-grei Cafe & Bakery" opened Oct. 25, 2019. It changed over to "NZ-grei Taqueria Gil" by Dec. 2021. (Source: Updates & prior Street View images.)

Review on Birria Tacos only. As it's all I tried so far.Place: was a small but clean set up with a few small 2 top tables for people to sit and eat if they would like. Lady behind counter was pleasant and helpful.Food: this place has had the best Biria tacos I've had in the area local to my job. The tacos were filled generously with a really tasty, moist and well seasoned beef. It had the typical raw white onion, although many restaurants go a bit heavy handed with onion, especially since it's also in the consume. I was easily able to pick a few off and it didn't overwhelm the flavors like at a nearby competitor. The addition of sweet red pickled onions gave it a nice mix of flavors to offset the salty rich meats and they use a wet Oaxaca cheese melted onto the tortilla to add the creamy cheese chew. The tortillas was crisp, even after driving back to my job and did not fall apart even when dipping into consume. Now the consume... the consume was nicely rich and flavorful. It was darkly colored and they give you a nice large portion of it for my 3 tacos. I picked some of the raw onion out, but that may be a more personal preference.I will definitely be eating here again soon and would like to try out other menu items as well. I will update my review as needed.FINAL NOTE: It seems at one time this was a bakery with cakes and cookies on display but I don't think they do that anymore as I hadn't seen any baked goods at all. So just be aware that you won't be picking out baked goods from a case. But go for the Biria!

The convenient location of NZ-grei is not the only thing this spot has going for it! The food is fresh and tasty! If you're looking for guacamole (to stay or to go), this is your sign! Enjoy!

Best spanish/mexican food I have ever had. Most authentic I have ever experienced. Great people working there as well. Best burrito I have ever eaten. Exquisite seriously. Amazing prices too. All around excellent restaurant.

Highly recommend NZ-grei Mexican Cafe! Food is very fresh and tasty! Had the huevos rancheros and really enjoyed the green sauce - tasted homemade! The birria taco was delicious and the shrimp taco was very good too! We tried the corn soup tonight and its was really fresh. We did take-out out once and ate in another time. If you are looking for a more authentic Mexican place in Babylon - check this one out!
I regularly come to this amazing cafe for several reasons. Firstly, it’s conveniently located right near the Babylon railroad. On top of that, the food is some of the most authentic and delicious I’ve ever had. I regularly order the birria tacos, which are generously sized for the price and come with a dipping soup. There are also a few chairs and tables if you want to eat inside. From the counter to the kitchen the service is excellent. I recommend this place to everyone I know.

Great Mexican place located next to Babylon Lirr station. Closer to a 4 then a 5 but I think for the location they are hard to beat. I’m a food blogger and tried many Mexican restaurants and this is one of the greats , you won’t be disappointment. Give them a shot. Delicious food and nice people.Instagram: OurFoodieLife

Very Fresh ingredients, and high quality dishes. I love the tacos and quesadillas! Authentic to tradition and delicious. The restaurant is also very clean, the design with all the flags are very decorative and cool as well, and all the fruit and vegetables look fresh and in order. Will be coming back regularly. Thank you!

You might walk by and wonder if it's good. Do yourself a favor and stop in... Great Tacos, Enchiladas, Empanadas and much more.. Very authentic!! Fresh!! The kind of place you would see on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. Guy Fieri would love it!
The Oreo Ice Pop is great ??
