The salsa here is addicting. It is also strong--the aftertaste will coat your mouth for days because of its potency. But it's completely worth it. Anyone who has a problem with it should be instantly appeased by how great it tastes. This location is great--a lot of locals convene here for margaritas and fajitas. Pretty standard fare, including quesadillas, nachos, and this crazy indulgent brisket and fries thing. It's basically loaded fries but with more fat and cholesterol-raising goodness. The prices are just slightly higher than the usual, but still cheaper than eating in the city. The service is great--nice bartenders and servers who are attentive and quick to refill your water. It's fairly big so would work for groups--it gets busy but the wait usually doesn't exceed about half an hour. read more

Great burritos, pulled pork quesadillas are really good ... their margaritas and mojitos are my go too. Big bar and a lot of extra seating now with the other side. read more

We've all been hangry before, but it's bad-news-bears when you + five of your friends are all in a cranky mood from lack of nourishment. We'd just left Robert Moses and were hunting for a post-beach meal when we stumbled upon Del Fuego. And man, did it hit the spot! Del Fuego has delicious, sizable portions in addition to being conveniently located, reasonably priced, and well staffed. My friends and I were seated at a booth and promptly given some chips and salsa to munch on while we looked over the menu. We ordered some guacamole, which was both delicious and a much larger portion than you'd see in the city for $8. I got the veggie burrito, which came with a side of the Fuego salad. Both were excellent! My friends were equally happy with everything we ordered, including their fish tacos, carnitas enchiladas, and the mesquite chicken wrap. Our servers were friendly, and kept the chips coming - which made them more like our heroes. Needless to say, we left super happy, with only memories of our earlier hangriness. read more

My favorite Tex mex joint hands down. Will you have to wait? Sure. Is it super crowded? Absolutely. Does it leave you bewildered to think that they recently expanded and yet you're still waiting between two antsy, touchy, loud couples? Without question. However, all signs point to a place worth waiting for, no? Let me break it down. -chips and Guac, for sure. And the chips keep coming. -salsa is outrageous. Not your standard pico de gallo but don't miss out. Put it on everything. -menu is eclectic, everyone can find something on here. I've never been disappointed. However, highlights: chicken quesadilla with mango BBQ sauce. Skirt steak burrito. Del fuego salad. Pulled pork anything. If I had to find an 'area of improvement' it would probably be with the staff. Hostesses aren't typically friendly. Waiters and waitresses are eh, but always keep the chips coming so I mean, beggars can't be choosers right? Bottom line, go. Go now. You're welcome. read more

I am doing the keto diet and I never thought I would find any food to go with my diet. The waitress helped me find the perfect meal. I had the burger with cheese and grilled vegetables; so good. The staff are so friendly and the atmosphere of the restaurant is warning. Will definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone. read more

Del Fuego is my go to spot for happy hour. Drinks are always strong and the house margaritas are the best in town, for $4 I wish I could take a pitcher home! Every food item I've ordered has consistently been fresh and filling. The chips and homemade salsa are a perfect compliment to what's about to come. Additionally, the music is always on point! My wife and I find ourselves singing along to most of the songs played here. All in all a great place for happy hour, wings and fresh Tex mex. read more

The atmosphere is very casual-I love the big booths. The food was fantastic. The salsa is unique and delicious. The drinks are strong and flavorful. My only complaint is we ordered 2 tequila flights, since it's their Friday night special, and our waitress didn't know how to describe it. She guessed on what it entailed and the price. A few minutes later she brought us six shots and as she was walking away, we asked her about the types of tequila and she had no idea. Poor presentation but def wouldn't stop me from going there again, I'll just stick to margaritas. read more

Del Fuego - Blackberry margarita - awesome - Tex-Mex Near Me - Babylon, New York

I live in Babylon and have only gone here 3 times, every time I try something dIfferent because I have never had a good meal here. I also love Mexican and Tex-Mex. It's odd there always people here, but the food is really just so so. The salsa is vary sweet almost sugary, The margaritas are mainly tequila and water , The chimichanga was loaded with cheese for no reason‍. The tocos are basic tocos and nothing to brag about. I don't like giving bad reviews, I see there trying and the staff is very kind and helpful. I do like there large collection hot sauces. But the manu needs work, they just miss the mark. If I can out cook you there is a problem. read more

We ordered through Uber eats and my order called for 1 carne asada taco and 2 shrimp tacos and they sent me 2 ground beef tacos and 1 pulled pork taco. Everyone else had their order correct. The food was good they just have to double check the orders to make sure it's correct. read more

We found Del Fuego thanks to Swell Taco being closed on Sundays...who knew!?! Anyway, our family of four dined here unexpectedly; 2 of which are very picky teenage girls. We were seated right away & our waitress was very pleasant & efficient. All four of us found something that we were happy with; 2 x beef tacos, chicken burrito, & I got the 3 mushroom quesadillas which I thought was delicious! The teenagers were able to order their tacos and burritos to their specifications. I loved the cool modern rock music playing, not too loudly in the background & the decor. We'll definitely go back...not even the picky teenage girls had anything to complain about! read more

Love the atmosphere and the food! Big portions as well. Definitely make a reservation if you're going to visit later in the day and if not, it's worth the wait with out a reservation. It's not some overhyped Mexican food place that you always see on LI , it's genuinely good food read more

Pulled pork tacos. Get them!!!! So good... I am a huge fan of this place.. Nice portions, prices, drinks and staff.. Come day time 11-4 maybe for your $2 tacos (a lil more money for fish, shrimp, lobster..to be expected) opted for the pulled pork and the pulled chicken... Pulled chicken wasn't my favorite.. However, the pulled pork tacos are amazing.. Well seasoned,extremely tasty and tender pulled pork.. I've also had the Cajun shrimp (another win)...come to this place.. It's fun and decently priced.. Plus.. Who doesn't like cervezasssss y margaritasssssss ayyyyyayayyyyyy ;) read more

Came in for nachos and happy hour. Sever was friendly and sat us down immediately. I ordered the pineapple margarita which was discounted by $2 during happy hour. The margarita was mostly juice. I followed it by a frozen house margarita. This one was better but not necessarily what I would recommend. The nachos were pretty good. My only complaint was that the ground beef as a little on the sweet side (assuming due to spices used). I'd recommend this place as a place to sit and hang out with friends. read more

I love this place great food & drinks, wings & tacos are the best. Staff is nice as well

VERY DISAPPOINTED. Was sat down and had to wait about 10-15 minutes until the server took our drink order. Then took even longer to get the drinks which was just a soda and "lemonade". Soda was so flat and the lemonade tasted like margarita mixer. The water tasted better than the soda and lemonade. Finally get to order food. I ordered chicken quesadilla, which I have had in the past and it has been good. My friend ordered fajitas. I have to say that the food did not take too long to get to us. But boy were we disappointed when taking our first bites. Chicken in both orders was very dry and seasoned oddly. Fajita tortilla was stale. Barely ate the food. Finally had to ask the busboy to get the server so we can check out and leave. We interact with our server a total of 3 times! (1. To order drinks, 2. To order food & 3. When she brought back my card) it wasn't a busy night and they had lots of servers out so there was no reason so as to why the server barely provided service. Overall I was highly disappointed on this place since my last visit. read more

Great Tex-Mex and cocktails! Smoked jalapeno tequila cocktails must be tried! Gluten-free menu selections. Great traditional flavors and the tacos are so good. read more

Blood orange margarita is where it's at. They have a gluten free menu too which is a plus. I love the Del Fuego salad with steak on top. Get it every time! read more

Just moved into the area and figured I'd try this place. It was packed but two tops were openly available. I checked in and got a free shot. We ordered a second shot so we both could have one and the manager was nice enough to comp the second shot as well. Service was great, they didn't even seem annoyed when we asked for fresher chips since ours looked like the crumbs at the bottom of the container. We were given a fresh batch. It's not the best authentic Mexican food but it is a lot of food and prices aren't bad. Overall I'd go back. Margs were good. read more

Best place! Good food & drinks! The chips, tacos, and quesadilla are gooood. Lizzie and Chelsea are amazing!

Happened to stumble across this place one day when driving home from out east. First impression- I really liked the atmosphere and vibe. Then the chips and salsa came out- I swear to you, I have never had salsa like this before- the smoky flavor with a hint of sweetness is just incredible. Last time I was there we purchased a quart of it (and have been rationing it!!) I usually get some combination of tacos as an entrée (definitely a good value with the lunch specials). Can't wait to go back! read more

Atmosphere: crowded, noisy. Difficult to hold a conversation between the four of us at our table. Food: formulaic Tex-mex. I enjoyed my yellow fin tuna fajita, although I sent it back twice to cook the tuna more even though I had asked for it medium. My husband had the steak fajita which he said was " OK." The rice and bean side was nicely done. Drinks: I have had better Margarita's. We all just ordered the basic Margarita, perhaps our waitress could have enlightened us as to the other types available. Service: the staff is polite and prompt. Noteworthy: We were sitting directly across from the men's room. Each time the men' s room door opened I had a view of the toilet bowl. I must have seen it 12 times during my dinner and I was thankful that each "bathroom-user," locked the door otherwise I would have have seen more than just the toilet bowl. read more

Del Feugo ... those two words mean DELICIOUS. Tons of different bottles of Hot Sauce. Good service all around. Very clean

At last, the return of Tex Mex to Babylon. After tempting people with the store front for half a year, they opened 3 weeks ago. Ended up calling in an order that had a 45 min wait attached. The place was crowded and the manager had lost my order. He ended rushing it through and giving a pint gratis. It came out shortly afterward. We ordered the gamut of tacos and tropical guac. The brisket taco was the winner but the pork came a close 2nd. Fish and shrimp were inferior to Swell Tacos but the tropical guac made up for that. I definitely plan on going back and think it is a great addition to the village and chalk up the mishap to the large influx of people. read more

Everybody keeps talking about this place. So my brother takes me who is a regular and usually gets the taco special. I ordered a Chimichanga and to my amazement the thing was massive. Had to be a 2000 calorie on the Richter. Unfortunately thats all it was...just plain huge with unholy amount of cheese and sauce. Taste was average and to shock life back into my mouth I ate it cold(food has more taste if cold). But still naddaa.. Will try the tacos someday. read more

Food was great and the atmosphere was authentic. The only problem I had was the service. I was greeted after a brief 2 min wait and then seated. After looking at the menu I was greeted by my server and ordered my food. I ordered a coke to drink so that I would be able to drink something while I ate my chips but the coke took about 5-8 mins to arrive. After the food came I decided I was still hungry and ordered a cheese quesadilla. After about 10-15 min of waiting I finally got my quesadilla. So yeah, I give it 4 stars. read more

Im obsessed with Del Fuego, seriously. One of my favorite spots in Babylon village. The buffalo chicken burrito, is amazingggg! Their margaritas are fantastic also. A bit on the pricey/ small side ($10 a piece), but I can deal with that. I believe they have margarita specials on Monday nights, which is a good time to check them out! Can't wait to come back! read more

I used doordash and got the "3 tacos and a soda"for 9$. I chose pulled pork, brisket and shredded chicken, all in a soft flour shell. The pork had a red cabbage/corn on top and the beef and chicken had the classic lettuce/tomato/cheese on top. Aside from the tacos being a little mushy from the liquid in the meat over time makes the shell soggy during it's travel, each flavor was better then the next. With each taco, I was like "wow" after that first bite. Really super solid flavors. And big portions too, usually 3 tacos is nothing but I was satisfied. I would def repeat. Thanks!! read more

3.5 Stars Just ate here today at 2pm, fast service, attentive waitstaff, pretty nice decor for an LI spot-as stated by previous reviewer. Started with the chips and salsa they put on the table as starters. The salsa was crack..very good and addictive with some spice to it. I got a Steak fajita wrapped, asked for it well-done, it came to me with some pink in the middle and chewy. Also bland. However my friend loved her specialty chicken wrap-it's the first one listed under the wraps menu, and she ordered rice instead of fries which she also enjoyed. Our meals totaled up to $34. Not bad for the huge portions. I would want to come back to try the drinks, that menu looked very interesting. Plus I love the cracked-out salsa dip. I also want to try this "Swell Taco" spot down the block that everyone is comparing this place to. read more

So went back today giving you a second after the last Diaster. Service was good but I believe if there is price change for an item the menu should reflect it or the server should reconfirm when item is ordered. You have so much on the tables and if we are not downloading the menu who is looking at a little piece of paper informing you of this charge. I really am not one to complain and understand everyone is trying to make it during these difficult times even your patrons. Three extra dollars for beef is no big deal but the customer should be made aware of it. Just seems a little underhanded to me. read more

We went today to celebrate New Year's day. The place was not crowded, service was fast and efficient. The food was so so, the chips were greasy and kind of flavorless. I ordered shrimp tacos, although it was good it was filled with too much cabbage and corn. It was good but I had better ones. My sangria was also so so ... overall okay only. read more

Del Fuego - Shrimp taco - Tex-Mex Near Me - Babylon, New York

Went to this place with the family around end of lunch hour. The place was full and hopping and I could see why. The food was satisfying and filling and not overly pricey. It's your typical tex-mex fare of burritos, tacos, enchiladas and options to have those in various combinations and sizes. Didn't try the drinks but they had them. As I said, the place was busy and, despite that, we didn't feel forgotten by the waitress. It's not the right spot for someone looking for a quiet spot, though, as there's music, talk, and TV sets tuned to sports channels. It's better than a Chipotle and I would prefer it to an Applebees, specially when craving for Mexican. read more

This place is essential an Applebee's for Tex-Mex food. Our waitress was delightful and super attentive but the food was disappointing. We got guacamole for the table to share and I could tell they make it ahead of time and just have it sitting in the fridge waiting for orders. It was super tasteless, really cold and was lacking that oomph of lime and jalapeno and overall zesty-ness. My friend and I shared the shrimp tacos and the 3 mushroom quesadilla. The shrimp tacos had only only one taste and that was sweet. There were hardly any shrimp but about 2 lbs worth of red cabbage dumped on top, I had to shovel off most of it to get to the actual taco. I wanted whole pieces of shrimp but it was actually cut up pieces and they were far and few between. They should really renamed this dish to "red cabbage taco served with shrimp garnish". This quesadilla claimed to have 3 different types of mushroom but the only one i saw was crimini. It was also flavorless, and was filled mostly with cheese and served with really sad pico de gallo. Like you know when you make something and you are too lazy to put saran wrap on it and just throw it in the fridge and everything just kind of droops and gets wilted and wet, that is what the salsa was like. The whole experience was a drag and I'm sad that I spent my money (and space in my stomach) on food that was definitely not worth it. Skip the disappointment and go straight to Swell Taco for some grub you can actually feel good about. read more

Del fuego has been a favorite of ours for a while. It's the perfect go to restaurant when you are in the mood for really tasty Mexican food and delicious drinks for fair prices ! We never once had an issue with their food or drinks! Also the service is pretty good usually, although we have had some experiences where they were extremely slow. But the food definitely makes up for these lapses. The only other thing that we had to complain about was the cleanliness. The tables are always filthy every time we go. Very sticky and food residue on them. We have put our arms on some unknown stuff and it wasn't too pleasant But All in all if you are in the mood for Mexican this is the go to spot, all they have to do is just make sure the cleanliness is a bit better ! read more

Much better than Swell, food wise. I had the trio of tacos and all were excellent. A ton of food, great flavor. I would absolutely go back to DelFuego. Oh, and the salsa was top notch. read more

Food was good - kitchen was a tiny but slow but not too bad. Service was a weak point. Nice atmosphere but music a little loud - again not too bad. Probably not the best choice for a family dinner (which is what we were here for) but seems like an excellent place to hang at the bar and get some food. Seems like a good place for a date - slightly slower service would allow for conversation. I enjoyed the wings (we tried the traditional buffalo and the honey chipotle) and I thought the Carne Asada tacos were great. Prices were reasonable - especially for Babylon Village. read more

We went to Del Fuego in Babylon and sat at the bar for an early dinner. Gerard, my bartender, so attentive and polite. Phenomenal service and very friendly. Along with the excellent atmosphere, we had an amazing experience. read more

We had a great meal. Huge Cobb salad really good and an avocado wrap. Generous portions and fine server.

Great Mexican food!!! Fun atmosphere, but what really sells me is the plethora of hot sauce! So many options!!!!

I'm never normally one to do this. And I'm a regular at del. but the experience i just had made me not want to come back. I brought my sister there for her first time tonight for her birthday. First I asked for a pitcher that I always get. The waitress told me they don't do pitchers. So then we ordered individual margaritas.. and didn't get them until after we finished our apps and entrees. 40 min later. She never once came over to see how the food was. As well as blamed the wait on the drinks on the bar, yet the people across from us got their drinks 5 minutes after sitting. I'm a waitress myself and that was bizarre. read more

I came here with my friend who lives around the area and thought it was not bad. The menu has variety which I like. The food was good. The place it cute and great for happy hours or to catch up with friends. It didn't stand out for me though from other mexican places. Oh but the drink I had was amazing!!! Do not remember the name but it was with jalapenos and spicy! read more
