    Pricing

    Did a pick up order through DoorDash for a steak burrito and even though it was $17, I still got it because a friend recommended this place to me. I live in Southern California and have been to Mexico/central America plenty of times. Some of the best Mexican food I've had at a fraction of the cost this place has to offer. Honestly the customer service is what threw me off the most. Lady at the register didn't greet me or give me eye contact. I told her I had a pick up order and gave her my name, she asked me what I ordered and said nothing else. I asked her for salsa, and she said nothing. Another lady came about 4 minutes later to give me my order. I felt the bag and there were no salsas in there so I asked again. I said thank you and there was no "you're welcome" or "have a nice day". I understand if there's a language barrier, but they spoke English and there was no attempt to greet me kindly or have any sort of hospitality. Burrito had no cilantro or onion. There wasn't an option to add or take off anything on DoorDash so I just got it as is. Was pretty dry and if I didn't ask for salsa the second time it would have been even more dry. The asada tasted like it was flavored from the carne asada seasonings you get from the super market. Rice didn't taste like it was fully cooked. Not worth the money or the standoffish behavior from the employees. I can get a burrito and 3 tacos at my local spot in socal for the same price and better flavor/customer service. It seems like all of the good reviews of this place are either 1. People who have never had good Mexican food or 2. People used to being price gouged for mediocre food. Improve on ur customer service, I'm sure the $17 burrito would've been worth it if the employees didn't seem like they were bothered by a paying customer just trying to pick up their food.

    Out on the island for work and always seeking authentic tacos. This place came up and the photos screamed legit. I went in and there was a mixture of Hispanic families and Hispanic drunk construction workers so it immediately told me that this was a good decision. I ordered 5 chicken, onion, and cilantro tacos and sat down. About 20 minutes later I was called and given a cafeteria tray of my tacos which continued to get me excited for my meal. Classic taco spot with the rojo and verde salsa offerings I doused my first taco with them and bit in but noticed a soft odd boiled flavor to the meat. When you get grilled chicken there's a slight blackening or smoke flavor received but, while tender, these had an unfamiliar flavor that I could taste even with the salsa. The tortillas lacked flavor. Some spots you taste the tortilla and it brings you right back to Mexico but these were MEH. Edible but not out of this world because I ordered the most basic taco that you can get. After finishing my five tacos I went up to pay and the bill confused me. $29.09 for five basic tacos. I paid and as I was walking out I turned back and approached the woman who'd just rung me up and asked for clarification. She explained the pricing and then the owner approached and asked if everything was ok to which I responded with his prices were too much. I've traveled all over the country, lived in nyc, and been throughout Mexico and the world and never paid that much for basic tacos. This just shows a business owner charging excessive amounts for simple dishes and being greedy. Yes, I ate the tacos but for a basic dish exceeding standard pricing, that is not proper business and the catalyst for my one star. It's a shame that a local place with people who love the simple food should have to overpay. Shame.

    Best empanadas and burritos! I work in the area but since COViD I've been working remotely. Still drive more than 30 minutes for take out - SO WORTH IT! Call your order in though. I did but still waited about 15 minutes. I'm okay with that because they're making your food fresh and to order.

    Walked in on a whim. The woman behind the counter was so nice. Place is clean and has some seating. I love the little hanging decor. It's giving authentic Hispanic vibes. I love it. I ordered the pupusa special. - queso y chicharron - queso y frijol - queso It comes with an horchata and I paid under 20.00. In the rhelm of pupusas. I would say 8/10. I wish they were a little thicker but def. Going back for more! So happy to have found this place so close to home.

    They're serving a non-deli sandwich shop. On a Mexican food

    This is better like as chipotle or Moe's southwest grill. Don't forget the price of the day as well

    Some damn good authentic Mexican food. Great selection on menu. Feels like homemade everything, took me back in memory. Staff were all so friendly and welcoming. Will be back for sure.

    Birria tacos

    I've been craving birria tacos and stumbled upon this place after being on the Island and doing a search for them on Google. Place looks like nothing special on the outside, and I wasn't sure what I was gonna get, but I'm glad I decided to check this place out and give it a shot. Tacos were absolutely delicious, authentic, and huge. I thought it was a bit pricey, $16.99 for 3 birria tacos, but they were pretty big. Meat was flavorful and tender. I also picked up a container of mangos with tajin and a slice of tres leches cake. Everything was so good, and I would not hesitate to come back. The only thing I can say is that they could have given a little more birria consomé. Other than that, highly recommend!

    Got 3 tacos, beef, chicken, and pork, and the mixed burrito... 1000% legit. The red sauce was hot flavorful and incredible, I had the 3 tacos and one bite of the Burrito, it was plentiful and absolutely phenomenal. The girl who took my order (Feb1 Sat Night around 7p) was sweet, helpful, and professional.

    Baleadas

    Tacos here are of quality! Their sauces must be homemade cuz it's just perfect level of spice for my tacos. I always get tacos de lengua. Baleadas are my fave all time item. It's huge it's filling. It's perfection. They expanded to have a deli too. If I lived in the area this would be my hangout spot. Plenty of parking outside as they have a lot. Service is stellar here. Def a must eat place when I'm passing through Farmingdale.

    The whole spread of tacos! Pollo, Al Pastor, Campechanos, Carne Asada, Lengua and Birria

    If you're looking for authentic street tacos come to El Paso Taco Grill! All of the different meats that we tried were really good and the tortillas tasted freshly made. I also ordered the Birria Tacos - probably wouldn't get this from here again as it's not like the Birria Tacos that you can get from Brooklyn or Queens - it was missing the consommé to dip the tacos into. Pro tip - call ahead to place your order otherwise you might wind up waiting 15-20 minutes especially during lunch time with a larger order

    BIRRIA TACOS!! Yup Birria finally made it to the East Coast. Birria Tacos I believe were originally made with goat. But now made with beef & New to the Long Island scene. And definitely not meant for delivery or to be taken home to eat. They must be eaten immediately while they're still hot and crunchy & the cheese is all melty. Warm tortillas dipped into the stew liquid, then filled with the flavor packed beef stew & some cheese. Then the best part comes. They're fried until crispy. Then served with a wedge of lime & a side of the stew consommé. WOWZA!! I was VERY happy with my first experience eating these savory gems. Now I have to try them at other places to see how El Paso measures up. Delicious, yes! FYI: They are Expensive for tacos, always takes a half an hour or more even though I call ahead and I would like a side of nachos & salsa with the meals. Just a few chips would make the price not hurt as much. But with that being said. It is what it is & I will still continue to purchase their delicious food. If you haven't tried the birria tacos yet. Please do yourself a favor & do it. 1-24-2021

    18 dollars for an okay burrito is all you need to know. There's no way to find prices anywhere until you have to pay.
