    Solid burritos, food is always fresh, and plenty of fresh juices to pick from. Highly recommend the churros and the horchata.
    Isaac C.

    A hidden gem for those looking for good tacos and burritos in the area. Great service, and a very friendly staff.

    Chorizo is red. Maybe they won't notice.
    Travis P.

    This place was awesome until today, I order $80 worth of food for the family. No one enjoyed it. Tortas had only chicken and cheese, nothing else. My chorizo bowls were served with pork sausage instead of chorizo, nice try, La taqueria. Will not be back, ever. Nor will I recommend anymore. Adios

    Al Pastor and Carne Asada on soft corn tortillas for lunch today. Very delicious. Will return over and over in the future.

    It is so delish! The best Mexican food I can get on Long Island. It's also not too expensive and so much food. Their burritos r so perfect.

    Great spot, always super quick, with generous portions and high quality. Tostadas are huge, tons of meat inside.

    Poor service. Rude staff. Chicken was dry. Corn tortilla was stale or overcooked. Inauthentic. Do not recommend.

    Phenomenal Mexican food at Ruta Oaxaca... the Woodbury location. Pretty much my favorite Mexican…read morefood restaurant... too bad we live almost 3,000 miles away. Yeah, you read that correctly... not a typo. We were visiting my daughter and her family while on Long Island, but we had to fend for ourselves one evening while they had other plans. We were in the mood for Mexican food, so Yelp to the rescue... and this place popped up. Well, it lived up to all the hype, I'm happy to say. The restaurant is really small... the only negative... and it can get kind of loud, so okay, two negatives, but the food more than made up for it. We had a really good waiter, who was very helpful in helping us place our order. We ordered guacamole, and they made it to our specifications, minus the hot peppers and cilantro. It was FABULOUS and just like I like it.... as good as Besito, by the way !!! I love that place, too. However, what really won me over was this salmon dish in red mole sauce, which I had never had before. It was AMAAAAAAZING. My husband and I SPLIT an order of their Salmon Con Tropical Mole, which was pan-roasted filet of salmon, mole manchamanteles, sweet plantains, papaya pico de gallo. We got some extra plantains and some street corn, and with the gargantuan size of salmon, it was more than enough for the both of us... plus we definitely filled up on chips and salsa (and guac for me). Everything was superb, and I want to say that the salmon was some of the best I've ever had. It was flaky, flavorful and succulent with a very light but appreciated outer crunch. It was soooooooooooo good. So we came away from this place, raving to everyone and anyone who would listen. We talked my daughter and son-in-law into ordering takeout from here as they were worried it was just too small to deal with a bunch of us going, esp. with their young children. Anyway, I'm disappointed to say that their takeout was an entirely different situation. We ordered the "same" salmon dish, and it was like HALF the size. It was the size for one... not that two could split. (If you look at my photo of it, you'll see how large it was... now cut it in half... that's what we got on takeout.) I let my husband have it cuz I was too angry. It had the mole sauce, but I didn't care once I saw it.... plus the salmon itself looked different... it didn't have that nice crunchy shell from pan roasting it. Just so disappointing. The guacamole was still as good as I remember, as was their salsa... but the portion size and quality of preparation... at least with the salmon... was an abomination. I can't speak to what my daughter and son-in-law ordered for entrees because we didn't try it in the restaurant, so we have no point of reference. I feel bad because I raved and raved about their food, and this takeout experience sucked. There should be NO difference. I guess my takeaway would be to recommend that you dine-in there. I'm awarding all FIVE stars for DINE-IN ONLY... and nothing to do with their takeout process. Brave the crowds because they will be there, make a reservation which will help, and eat THERE. I just don't trust the takeout experience with them.

    Ate here for the first time. The food was pretty good. I ordered a mix of tacos. My least favorite…read morewas the carne asado and the best one was the chicken. The shrimp one was "meh". My date had the verde entree and it was really good. She enjoyed it. The chips and salsa on the table were delicious and the they are clearly homemade. Ambiance is "ok". It's showing its age a bit on the flooring and the molding. The service is why I'm deducting point and I'd give them 3.5 stars if I could. We sat a bit and waited to have our orders taken and sat a bit longer for the check. They were nice, polite, friendly but a little quicker service would have been appreciated. Would I go back? Sure. I'll try something else.

It was so so fresh and delicious. They were so kind and friendly to my son, and that means so much to us. We started with chips and queso and a side of guacamole. My husband got 3 tacos- calamari, bulgogi, and short rib. I had the mixed vegetable quesadilla. My son had the blackened salmon taco. Wish I got pictures before we feasted but we just couldn't resist! We cannot wait to return again!

    There are multiple Dirty Taco and Tequila locations: Wantagh, Rockville Centre, Woodbury,…read morePatchogue, Smithtown, and Port Washington. My friend and her boyfriend have visited multiple locations and recommended visiting Dirty Taco and Tequila - Woodbury for our double date so we came on a Tuesday night at 6:30pm. Dirty Taco and Tequila is located in Woodbury Common Shopping Center. There are plenty of other businesses and parking spaces. Many tables at Dirty Taco and Tequila were occupied and it was pretty busy when we came in, but we were seated after waiting just a little while. Dirty Taco and Tequila only takes reservations for large groups. Dan Z was our server and he was amazing. He was very attentive, happy, and friendly. He asked if it was our first time at Dirty Taco and Tequila and gave us a brief introduction to the menu and his recommendations. I had the Asian Pear cocktail and it was very yummy. The Asian Pear cocktail has Grey Goose vodka, pear nectar, st. germaine, lime juice, and agave. My friends had pineapple margarita, coconut margarita, and strawberry kiwi margarita. For margaritas, you can add salt or sugar on the rim. We ordered Guac & Chips for the table. The guacamole, tomatoes, cilantro, lime, and red onion were very good and great to share. I ordered the Bulgogi Taco and the Bang Bang Shrimp Taco. My favorite was the Bang Bang Shrimp Taco. It had pan fried shrimp, cabbage slaw, tossed in bang bang sauce, sriracha drizzle served on flour tortilla. This taco was packed with flavor and really good. The bulgogi taco didn't have bulgogi, they were steak strips. My husband had the Pork Belly Taco and Korean Short Rib Taco. He really enjoyed it. Our group of 4 stayed for about 2 hours at Dirty Taco and Tequila. They didn't rush us out at all. It's really chill and relaxing atmosphere. I also really like the decor. There is a cash discount if you pay with cash compared to credit card. Definitely looking forward to coming back to Dirty Taco and Tequila!

    An alternative to chipotle which I never go to ever since it gave me a really bad stomach virus…read moreonce that knocked me out for a week. Food is pretty good! We ordered a big haul including the Southwest steak burrito, Cheese-Crusted Quesadilla with grilled adobo chicken, and Street Style Chicken Tacos. All 3 were very tasty The southwest steak burrito was very well balanced and filling and the grilled steak was flavorful and tender, paired nicely with the cilantro lime rice, black beans, chile crema (medium heat hit the spot), chile corn salsa, and those crispy tortilla strips for extra crunch. The quesadilla had great taste and texture. the adobo chicken had nice seasoning, pico de gallo and cilantro kept it fresh, and the cheese crust was crispy and gooey in all the right ways. Street style chicken tacos were delightful. soft corn tortillas held up great, grilled chicken was juicy, and the salsa verde, fresh guac, pickled red onions, and cotija gave it that authentic street taco vibe without being overwhelming. I love Guac so I ordered an extra scoop on the side. Highly recommend it. These things all taste great with it. Dip it right in and enjoy your meal. Everything came out hot and portions were generous. We had plenty to share and still had leftovers. I will definitely come here again. Much better than chipotle!

Ordered online and it was ready to go when we arrived 10 minutes later. Restaurant looked clean and bright, servers were courteous and cheerful. The food here, like at Chipotle and Moe's, etc. isn't bad. It's just the appearance of a bunch of ingredients all kind of slopped onto a soggy, recycled (maybe?) paper bowl. The colors were vibrant and everything tasted fresh, it's just that the appearance, totally - subjective, devalued the merit of the individual ingredients. Probably 4 stars if you're a fan of "bowl" type cuisine.
