“Omg spicy mayo on a burrito? Yes!! Everything’s great, steak is the best anywhere. Good portion and prices Accommodating and very nice staff What can I say. I eat here 2-3 times a week Ask for the spicy shrimp!!“

“Very nice inviting decor. Service was just ok. The server was basic, didn’t tell us it was happy hour? Nor did she mention and food selections. For a new establishment I guess I was expecting a bit more … maybe ask if we had been there before? Check back to see how our food was( it was outstanding), we got more help from the water girl Had to ask to clear table. Had to ask for check from the water girl? The server had much support. Seems she took our order and disappeared. But the server assistants were on point. Dinner was really good. We will go back… because of the food. Even the manager walked pasted us a dozen times. There were 6 tables.. perfect time for manager to mingle… just saying. Place is very nice, great menu too. Just left feeling ignored. Nice music too. Maybe the server was having a bad day? Like I said we will go again !!! Great food.“

“Was in with my daughter for dinner and just wanted to say we had the BEST experience! First time dining at Rocco’s Tacos and couldn’t have had a better experience. Our server, Erica, was phenomenal! Service and food was outstanding! LOVED the guacamole she made and she was sweet as can be and we took her advice on everything to order - her recommendations were great and we left full and very happy! We will definitely be coming back soon!!“

“This restaurant exceeded all of my expectations! The tacos were hands down some of the best I’ve ever had, and the drinks were just as amazing. Everything was packed with flavor and absolutely worth trying.

My only minor complaint was the wait time for both the food and drinks, but honestly, once everything arrived, it was completely worth it. The quality more than made up for the delay.

I would 100% come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for incredible tacos and great drinks! 🌮🍹🙌“

“This is my first time ordering food from Fat Boys Burrito for my meetings (grilled chicken burritos, bang ban shrimp tacos, guacamole & chips). Their food is absolutely delicious. The variety of dishes offered, quality service and presentation is exceptional! I will definitely be ordering again. Thanks Tony and team!“

“We came here on a thurs even around 6pm...Was pretty crowded but got a table in the middle..The sound level is pretty high at 3/4 capacity but somehow you seem to flow with it because of the atmosphere... People enjoying good mex food are more enjoyable to be around for some reason..anyway...lighting as with most place is difficult to read menu but once the order was in,alot of fun...I noticed the food to be very FRESH...I immediately tasted that in the beans on my Mexican special and the Flautas,chimichanga etc were all delicious stuffed and perfectly cooked!..Fajita steak was so nicely marinated and charred but med inside..Perfect!..Wait staff were all very pleasant....I enjoyed my visit and will defin visit during a slow day,maybe lunch for a lil more quiet....“

“Would highly recommend coming to try the Happy Hour menu and Taco Tuesday tacos/margaritas and sit outside to enjoy the beautiful view of the water. There was a bit of miscommunication about the Happy Hour specials on Fridays (no longer available on Fridays but are on other weekdays), as others have mentioned, but Wilmer was responsive over email and generously resolved the issue, which we appreciated. The outdoor bartender Matt, was friendly, kind, and super helpful - he made the visit 5 stars for us. Raw Oysters and the shrimp taco were both good. The birria taco (sauce quite spicy), ribeye taco, and corn ribs were excellent. Chips and salsa were great too. The menu has a lot of creative options and we look forward to trying more items.

“Right Coast Taqueria provided our lunch for our Teacher Appreciation week in Smithtown. The faculty raved about the food and presentation!! They accommodated food allergies. Great business to work with!!“

“Food was outstanding, just finished my meal and had to write a review. Hidden gem as another said. Probably ordering again Sunday.“

“Tried them out for the first time, really excellent!

My wife and I got a their guac and chips an Al Pastor burrito and a grilled chicken platter. We kept saying with everything...wow super fresh. Everything was ultra surprisingly fresh and delicious. Perfect portions, delicious flavors not overly seasoned.

Very cool interior decor super clean, we will be back 100%. DELICIOUS“

“Wow what a fantastic find! We decided to try this new Mexican place, and it did not disappoint. Every single dish was packed with flavor. The tamale was perfectly moist and savory, and the taco Pescadero was fresh and perfectly seasoned. We also devoured the steak quesadilla, which was cheesy and full of tender steak. Don't even get me started on the empanadas—both the chili empanada and the chicken and cheese empanada were phenomenal. We can't wait to go back and try more!“

“We just ordered here for the first time and the food was amazing ! The grilled buffalo chicken wrap was delicious! The breaded buffalo chicken wrap and avocado corn salad were huge hits as well.“

“Great place. Food is tasty. Adam who works there is super helpful and friendly. Whenever I see Adam, he is smiling and personable and caring. Adam rocks!“

“Fantastic authentic flavorful food“

“great food, fun atmosphere and great music!“

“❤ My husband and I love Curbside in South Hempstead. Their crunchwraps are big enough to share. Our favorite is the Cowboy Crunchwrap with extra sauteed onions. I could eat only this for the rest of my life, provided, of course, we have sour cream!“

“So authentic and great service! The worry dolls were an added bonus as I was there with my daughter. Perfect birthday, love the philanthropy also! Guacamole was the best I’ve ever had.“

“Best mexican grill on long island. Food is delicious, prices are fair, portions are perfect and staff is fast and pleasant. If you're craving filling and satisfying mexican food don't even THINK about going anywhere else. I heard about it from a friend and I just got my family hooked on it too, my siblings are going with their partners later this week to introduce it to them too.“

“Staff was beyond friendly and helped me with some suggestions since it was my first visit. Everything was so good and I really liked that the protein you picked was cooked fresh right in front of you. There are so many things I didn't get that I want to try. Will definitely be back.“

“Restaurante familiar, Rica comida 🌮“

“WOW
THIS RESTAURANT WAS SO CLEAN! THE STAFF WAS SUPER FRIENDLY & AS ALWAYS THE FOOD WAS FRESH. CLEARLY THE BEST IN IT'S CLASS COMPARED WITH CHIPOTLE & OTHERS OF THAT ILK! WAY TO GO LOVE HAVING MORE OF THESE TOI GET MY FIX“

“This place was awesome! The atmosphere was definitely one for the books. The Margarita flight was sooooo good along with the food. The customer service was definitely top notch. Everyone was smiling and had a positive attitude. Constantly checking in to make sure you're doing okay. 10 Stars, will be returning“

“tonight, 6/6/26,we went for dinner at Mesita in Amityville, NY, Everything was perfect for a great dining experience. We were greeted by friendly smiling faces at the door and shown to our table straight away. We were then met by our waitress Myra, who promptly showed us a list of specials and a drink list.I had a glass of their red Sangria and my wife had one of the custom drinks, both excellent, Our meals came, both huge and more than enough for 2 meals for each of us, and I will say both meals were awesome.Please visit this awesome establishment that brings you back in time to a very authentic Mexican experience, you wont be sorry“

“Come here daily for salads, burrito bowls, Greek bowls. Pop Salad and El Diez menus are a great deal under 10 dollars (guacamole is free) they even have a combo with chips and drink for $10. Portions are big. You can customize everything, and it tells you in the app if anything has gluten, dairy, or nuts. Hard to review a restaurant that has this level of variety, but the healthy dishes are definitely as good as anywhere else for less money and faster service. The fast pass subscription gets you money discounted on every order automatically so it pays for itself if you come regularly which isn't a problem at a place that has everything and is open until almost midnight every day. The benefit of Wonder having everything is that the entire family can get whatever type of food they want from one location and you don't have to agree on what to have for dinner or lunch anymore. No need to wait on a line at Chipotle anymore.“

“Food was absolutely delicious. Everything was hot and fresh. It’s the true authentic flavors that will make you crave this place time and time again. The staff were super friendly and you can taste the care as well as passion they put into their food. It’s a 1000 out of 10! So so so so good.“

“I had such a great experience at Cantina Mexican Restaurant! The bartenders and servers were absolutely amazing,super attentive, friendly, and incredibly accommodating from start to finish. The food was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care.
The atmosphere is fun and lively, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy yourself, and everything was clean and well kept. I truly had an amazing time and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food, drinks, and a good vibe!“

“The tacos, the nachos, the burritos, the quesadillas, this is the place you never knew you needed!! By the way they have more yummy choices, I just haven’t gotten through them yet!!“

“Best Delivery Food Around! Food is always hot, delivery is extremely quick, people are great and the food is the BEST!!!!“

“Excellent quality, excellent service, guac is not extra!

They treat you with respect and dignity. When you order triple chicken, they give you triple. They do not scrimp.

This is the only Mexican chain restaurant that I will go to. The other one's portions are disrespectfully small.

QDoba gets an A+“

“Love it there always a good time“

“Picked up lunch and it was delish!!! Thank you!!! Queso is fantastic!“

“awesome menu items great service“

“Me encantó le doy 10 de 10 muy bueno comida muy buena atención y servicio rápido 100% recomendado 😋“

“I’m obsessed with the new team at Nelly’s. Alba and her team are whipping up delicious food that we can’t get enough of. If you’re looking for well made Mexican, you have to give Nelly’s a shot.“

“Decided to try the mobile drive-thru pickup line for the first time, and it couldn’t have been easier. My order was ready exactly when it said it would be, the pickup process was quick and seamless, and everything was fresh and made perfectly. It’s so convenient to grab your food without even leaving your car. Great food, great service, and an amazing experience every time!“

“Some of their food is not the same and I noticed that it’s on certain days when they have the younger ones working in the kitchen. They need to have quality control when the more experienced cooks are not working..“

“great food and strong drinks !! love this place“

“First time there and the food and the staff were great. Bear tacos and the margaritas were excellent. Definitely will be back.“

“I love this place. The food is so Fresh and Delicious and most importantly consistent. The owner and staff are very accommodating and there are plenty of Veg. Options.“

“I can't say enough good things about the staff at this location. Yesterday my daughter was car sick in the parking lot before we even came in, staff came out and checked on us, brought her water. so sweet! food was great! staff amazing! definitely recommend!“

“good food , quick service“

“It’s a small local place for a quick Mexican - no table service, just order at counter and use the table/seating to eat on your own. Not much for ambiance but great for takeouts. Food is fresh and good and reasonable. They have self serve sauces from mild to hot. Horchata is great.“

“😎Our go to spot for quick eats and very grateful that a gentleman helped me on Superbowl Sunday even though they were almost ready to close. Neighborhood spot to cherish 🩷“

“The food is good. As long as you go before 5pm, you can get a 9.99 burrito meal which includes a drink. That price does not include shrimp or steak, or queso. The burritos are huge so it could feed two people of a smaller appetite. The quality of ingredients are also good. Great alternative to Chipotle.“

“awesome menu items great service“

“This place has quickly become one of our go-to spots. The food is seriously worth every penny. Everything tastes fresh, full of flavor, and the portions are solid. My boyfriend is from California and he’s pretty picky about Mexican food, but he says this is the closest he’s had to back home. That alone says a lot.

It’s the kind of spot you try once and then it just becomes part of your regular rotation. Definitely recommend if you’re craving something satisfying and legit.“

“Went on a whim and was very surprised at the ambiance and hospitality. Food and portions was very generous as well as delicious. The hostess recommended the fried shrimp tacos and we were blown away! I love the fact you have a beverage fridge there and grab any drink you want! I will definitely be going back.“

“This place is great for authentic Mexican food. I ordered a chorizo taco and Cubana sandwich. My friend ordered a couple tacos and and a tostada. (See photos)On a Sunday afternoon it was very busy, which I didn't really expect, but I took it as a good sign. My friend that took me there has been there several times, it is currently her favourite taco spot ??“

“Literally the greatest food I’ve ever eaten, ever. Full stop. I’ve been a loyal customer since high school, and through college, living overseas and living out of state, Gold Mine is a must visit whenever I’m in town. If I were about to be executed, my last meal would be: Cajun chicken quesadilla, chips with melted cheddar, lemon chip sauce, and Dave’s pico de gallo. A little guac and sour cream on the side but honestly the pico and lemon chip are more important. The food is SO good that guac is an afterthought. Usually guac is the first thing people consider when having Mexican. My biggest fear is that Dave will retire. I wish he’d write a cookbook. My only “complaint,” if you can call it that, is that it’s primarily a takeout joint, although there are tables and you’re totally welcome to sit there and eat. I’m a sucker for ambience and I’d happily pay top dollar for waitstaff and charm out the wazoo so I can sit there with friends and have a full dining experience. Regardless, none of this changes the fact that it’s the best food in the galaxy.“
