We ordered take out today and food was done when promised, staff were very friendly. My daughter has chicken soft tacos, which she likes, BF had chicken quesadilla which he said was good.

The owner was very nice and pleasant as she took my order. The best feature was the food was all natural. No mixes out a box, nothing frozen or out of a can. The beef was moist and tender and the soft taco had chunks of chicken pieces. The food tasted great. The menus on the wall behind cash register listed complete dinners and meals. If you're hungry, this is definitely a good place to go, and it was reasonably priced.

Finally took my wife on a date to Mezcal and it did not disappoint. Mezcal has been the talk of our…read moretown since it opened and I can definitely see why. The vibes and ambience take you right out of Old Bridge and throws you into a trendy NYC restaurant and bar. While Mezcal can be considered pricey, their flavors and offerings definitely lives up to the hype. We started with the beluga caviar tasting which was delicious and rich! Way better than the typical sturgeon caviar most restaurants serve. The oysters were also fresh and was served with delicious condiments. For our main entree we ordered the tomahawk for 2, with a side of corn and mashed potatoes. We loved that the steak was served with sea salt on the side that we can sprinkle on every bite. We finished our meal with flan and it was rich and decadent. It definitely put a dent in my wallet but we'll definitely be going back there soon to try their lobster risotto and other steak options! We're also excited to head back for their happy hour on Mondays!

Beautiful space, excellent Mexican food, and great service…read more My family brought me to Mezcal as a surprise, and we were all really impressed. From the moment you walk in, the restaurant makes a great first impression. The décor is beautiful and upscale, but still inviting and there are plenty of great spots for social media pictures. We started with a few lighter appetizers, but they ended up being more than enough. We shared three sets of tacos: the fish, pork, and short rib. Each order comes with two tacos, which makes them perfect for sharing and trying different flavors. The esquites were also really tasty and all paired very well. My daughter had a cheese quesadilla, which she absolutely loved. For drinks, I went with an Old Fashioned (my go to classic) while my wife ordered the "Clock It" mocktail. Both were solid choices. I also appreciated that they brought out boxed water for my daughter, which was a nice touch. What really stood out to me, though, was the service. Our waiter was attentive without being overbearing and made sure we were taken care of throughout the meal. There's also a fairly large bar right at the entrance, so you don't necessarily have to come here for a full meal. I could easily see Mezcal being a great date-night spot or a place to grab drinks and enjoy the atmosphere. There's also plenty of parking in the back, which is always a plus. Overall, I'd definitely come back. Next time, I want to try some of the main dishes. It's a higher-end restaurant, so expect the prices to reflect that, but between the food, atmosphere, service, and presentation, I thought it was well worth the experience.

Otherwise, flavor great, and jalapenos nice and spicy. In fact, everything here was spicy, which I loved but you may not. Ok- guac is more like guac salsa, equal parts tomato to avocado. Also, very spicy. Just not how I like or expect guac. The tacos were small, but came 4 to an order. They double wrap a flour shell, and it just seemed like the ratios were off. Sauces were nice and spicy, but the salsa verde was thicker than I'm used to. Steak was overcooked and the pineapple in the al pastor was under-ripe. Overall, not bad... but not the best taco I've ever had.

I went hiking yesterday with the Staten Island Hiking meetup group yesterday. It was a beautiful…read moreday and we certainly had an interesting hike. Lost the trail on the way back and had to bushwack out way through 1.5 miles off trail. After 6.5 miles we were back at the parking lot. Tired and hungry we found Montes. Very good pizza, excellent crust, thin and crispy with a good amount of cheese. The granny squares looked so good and the girls said the were excellent. One of our hikers got a salad with grilled chicken. The chicken was done perfectly! Juicy on top of a huge salad! Looked so fresh and greens were crisp. He shared and took some home. Neighboring table had spaghetti with garlic and oil which smelled devine and a huge portion. Prices were not crazy but low to moderate. Very clean too, wooden tables were spotless. I didn't taste the other food therefore I gave 4 stars. If I'm out that way again I will definitely stop for lunch or dinner.

On our most recent visit, we sat at the outdoor patio seating area during happy hour - the happy hour sliders were super soft & flavorful, and the dirty Gusto chips were great. We also enjoyed a few ffordable drinks ($8-10 each) from the happy hour menu. I loved the fried goat cheese app from the regular menu - two decent sized pucks of goat cheese, fried with a light/crispy outer crust, served with a honey-fig reduction. For the entrees - the truffle Gouda smash burger had a unique blend of flavors, and the loaded mac & cheese is one of our usual favorites - soft cavatappi pasta spirals, super cheesey, and delicious salt bacon sprinkled throughout. The ambiance is casual and calm, but still more elevated than your run-of-the-mill chain restaurants, and the service was attentive & friendly.

The nachos were a no from me. The cheese on the nachos was like stadium nachos - straight from the can. The wings were pretty good. Very crispy with a nice sauce. We ordered vodka pizza which was also pretty good. The fries that came with the sandwiches were similar to frozen crinkle cut fries. I expected better knowing that the place was pretty popular, and sports bars typically have really good food. Stick to pizza & wings when you visit. You can't go wrong there!

My co-workers and I decided to stop here for happy hour as it was close to our office building. The…read morehappy hour is mostly focused on food discounts rather than drinks as it is only $3 beers. There isn't a cocktail menu, just basic vodka cranberry/rum & coke which I was a little dissapointed in. But hey, what can I expect from a local pub. With that being said, the happy hour food was totally worth it! I highly suggest the boom boom wings. They were packed with flavor, not to mention the wings are huge. I did feel like this place was understaffed though. We came on a Wednesday night around 6 PM and the place was getting busy with locals. It was only the bartender and one waiter out on the floor. Sometimes it was impossible to get their attention since they were so busy, plus the food took a bit of time to come out. My co-workers and I will most likely return since it was quite affordable and tasty.
