The chips and salsa are scratch made, the burritos are large enough to share, nachos are a must-have. Vegetarian options are available. Prices are beyond reasonable; last time we went we spent $70 with drinks and tip for four people.“

“the food was good, but they need a better air filter system the smell of burning isn't appealing while you eat. the place was clean, the servers were great. it was just another version of taco bell mixed with chipotle. but this is just my VYI's keeping it real view,we enjoyed the bowls, plenty of food in each. we will go back next month to try their salad.“

“Went to pick up some burritos for dinner
Rickie the general manager was absolutely the highlight of my visit! Excellent people skills, attention to details and checking up on my as I wait for the food was the best service I’ve received than any fancy place I’ve been to! If you haven’t given him a raise yet definitely do!
He was also training new staff members while taking care of multiple customers.
I’d come back just to have a good laugh with him!“

“Amazing first time experience!! Parking was accessible at 5pm. Don't skip on table side guacamole!! I was able to order a strawberry mocktail margarita. Music was amazing. I felt at home (I'm Colombian) they had on cumbia. Food was amazing. I ordered arroz con pollo (chicken with rice) its good for 2 people. I took my leftovers. Definitely will come back.“

“All the workers seem to genuinely enjoy their jobs as they greet you with smiles from ear to ear. I've had their food several times over years.

The store is very clean and professional! All employees here deserve a pat on the back for making this experience so perfect! Thanks again!!“

“I'm usually here once a week. The food is perfect every time ( No exaggeration, 50 visits, 50 times getting exactly what I asked for) I've tried everything on the menu and they're all good. **If you're ordering fries be prepared, it's usually and extra 3 or 4 minutes because they make them to order**. If I had to have one suggestion it would be more diet/zero sugar drinks, but that's because of MY preferences. Do not miss out on this place.“

The owner speaks English so it's easy to communicate what I want and he's friendly. The prices are good too ! I eat at a lot of latin food places to compare .“

“Delicious, always enough to eat! Fast delivery!“

“Simply the best taco spot in the area for true street-style tacos. I used to drive all the way to Queens to get tacos like these, and now I’ve found this gem just 2 minutes from home.

I ordered the birria tacos and they were absolutely amazing. The meat quality was excellent and the portions were very generous. The birria consommé was perfectly seasoned and came with a grilled jalapeño that added the perfect touch. The tacos also came with fries, and the prices were very reasonable for the amount of food.

I also tried the chorizo tostadas, and once again the portion size and flavor were incredible. The condiments were fresh and well balanced, and those came with fries too. There was so much food that it was easily enough for two people.

I can’t wait to go back and try more items from the menu. If you’re looking for authentic, delicious street-style tacos, this is the spot.“

“Had the pleasure of eating at the Greenport location. Two of my HS girlfriends and myself on moderately busy on Sunday (1012/24) at about 5:30. A young waiter named Brian was our server. We first ordered drinks, mine was the margarita with the pomegranate swirl. So delicious!! Refreshing and frosty! We shared the Mexican Street corn and the three dips with chips, which were freshly made. So fabulous! So tasty. The salsa, guacamole and queso were just perfect, each different but delicious!! The corn was sweet and flavorful. I had three tacos in hard shells. Fried chicken, fried shrimp and the marinated steak. Each one was different and very fresh. My one friend, is a vegetarian and the other is gluten intolerant BUT! They each found many yummy choices! I’ve been trying to get to this restaurant for several years, and finally the planets aligned! Brian was well trained, patient and informative with a good humor. The interior is bright, festive and clean. So much food, I could not finish all of it. And!! the restroom was clean! You should be very proud of this business! We will be back! Thank you!!“

“Nice place and attendants“

“Always fresh and delicious, a Bohemia gem for authenticity and quality food. Clean clean clean and underrated for this level of deliciousness.“

“Me encantan las quesadillas mexicanas de hongos con queso!!!! Super rico todo!“

“I have lived in Patchogue for 25 years. I remember when there was no Mexican Food in Patchogue at all! Lindo Mexico is a *special* place. There's fancier, there's more festive... but Lindo Mexico is *special*. If you want off-the-charts deliciousness that is authentic, go to Lindo Mexico. Proud to have this restaurant in my village. It is an authentic Mexican Food experience that will make you feel like you are there: in Mexico. That is the highest compliment I can think of. Thanks, Lindo Mexico!“
