Was driving on Route 110 and Lucharitos caught my eye. Great server, Jaydah, and great food. Nice 1st experience, we would definitely come back. The food and drinks were very good and the prices are reasonable. I highly recommend. read more

Came in last night and it probably will be my last time. Such a shame because the food is excellent but the service was absolutely atrocious. Our waitress was visibly annoyed when I asked questions regarding the menu. It took 20 minutes to have my drink come out when the rest of the table had theirs. That being said, the drink was disgusting. I ordered a guava margarita which the waitress said was their seasonal flavor. It tasted like sweet juice and no alcohol. Since the waitress was nowhere to be found after she quickly brought anything to the table and ran away, I got up to Go to the bartender to ask for a regular margarita with no flavor. Not only did the bartender EMBARRASS me in front of the bar customers, she was completely rude and dismissive. She said there was no way my margarita was too sweet because everything was measured. I said OK but I don't like it, can I have one with no flavor? And she proceeded to ask me "what's too sweet about it? Why is it too sweet?" Literally putting me on the spot in front of other customers. I was appalled. I said I don't like the juice can I just have another one with no flavor then? She walked away and I didn't see the margarita for another 15 minutes until our food was out. We had kids with us and 2 kids meals came out and my daughters didn't come out for another 15 minutes after the other children. She was complaining how hungry she was and as usual, our waitress was nowhere to be seen. This is not the way to run an establishment. Especially after spending close to $300 for 3 adults and 3 children. The gratuity was even added in because their staff is so terrible they have to guarantee their tip it seems. I wish there was a manager on site so I could've complained or at least had the gratuity taken off, but they were nowhere to be seen. There was no hostess on site, and completely understaffed. It was such a let down experience especially since the food is great. read more

I came here with my daughter and a friend for Taco Tuesday, this hasn't been my first time here but definitely first Taco Tuesday. To my chagrin, they play bingo on Tuesday. A time was had...I will be back. Now for the food, I ordered the cod fish taco and the buffalo chicken taco. Both tacos were good, my favorite being the buffalo chicken taco, it was flavorful with the right amount of heat. I'm not taking away from the cod fish taco, it was flavorful as well but I just enjoyed the buffalo better. For a drink I got a regular mojito, and babbyyy they make a good drink here! I had me a nice little buzz while playing good old bingo. It was fine and the staff (Eugenita) was EXCELLENT! She was personable and just sweet. read more

Very cute decor inside. Nice outdoor seating. We were helped immediately by friendly staff. The Birria tacos are absolutely delicious. As well as the guava margarita. Unfortunately the guacamole and chips were a miss. The guacamole was very bland. We asked if we could add anything to spice it up and we were given hot sauce. Overall, everyone enjoyed their other dishes. read more

I stumbled upon Lucharitos one day while craving tacos, and I'm so glad I did! The decor is super fun with WWE wrestlers on the walls, and the music will definitely have you wanting to dance. The margaritas are strong but so good, and the tacos are flavorful and reasonably priced for what you get. As far as service goes, the staff is very nice and welcoming. It can take a little while, especially on Taco Tuesdays when they may only have one bartender and one server, but their positive attitudes definitely make up for the wait.I especially love going for Taco Tuesdays! They play a few rounds of bingo and winners get gift cards, which makes it even more fun. Overall, just a great spot with good good vibes, great food, and a fun atmosphere! read more

Driven past this place a million times and meeting my son for an early supper only made the decision that much easier. From the outside decor, the kitschy decor and ambience. Our server (whose name escapes me) was amazing - doting without looming, excellent recommendations and margaritas with Jelly Belly's OMG! Left stuffed to the brim. Definitely recommend read more

Came here on a Friday night, and I was surprised to see that the restaurant wasn't busy. We were seated right away since they had a lot of seating space available. Ordered two different tacos- the Carne Asada and the Picadillo. Both in the soft flour tortilla. Out of the two, I preferred the Picadillo. Drinks were also good. read more

Unfortunately have to pile on the general sentiment here: this place is nothing special. Kind of a cool theme with lucadors and very nice inside. We ate on the patio which was fine. Service was very uneven. Our server talked us out of nachos (that's a first) in lieu of chips with a trio of sauces, which wasn't nearly enough for our group. In general she was very nice but hard to find, especially when she disappeared at the end as we were trying to leave. Normally this isn't a huge deal, however with 3 kids that needed to go to bed (not to mention the seniors), this was a pain in the butter. Had Mexican Coke and a strawberry margarita which was ok. Chips and sauces were just ok. Chips didn't taste fresh, with the sauce not being flavorful, the queso ok, and the guac very ordinary (think store bought). I got 3 tacos because it didn't realize how much they overload their tacos. Not with meat either, just with lettuce and other fillers. It was absolutely ridiculous and made them a chore to pick up and eat. They also served my tacos on a platter without any uprights, so when they put them down on the table everything overflowed over the side, through the mesh of the outdoor table, and onto my pants. Someone needs to teach these guys how to plate food. Once I took all of the extra crap off, the tacos were a mixed bag. The fried fish tacos were pretty good even if the batter was on the thick side, as they were nice and crisp. The coconut shrimp tacos fine for what they were, however not my favorite and a tiny portion (2 shrimp). I got the picodillo taco as a crisp/soft, which I didn't realize they were going to do some Taco Bell shit and put a crisp tortilla inside a soft one; I literally asked my server what it was and she did not explain this. I ended up ripping the hard shell out as the soft shell was covered in lettuce, and once I did it was a bit soggy but otherwise fine. If you're looking for a sit down version of Taco Bell, this is it. Place screams chain restaurant, and I honestly would rather do Taco Bell than this. Food is 2 stars, however I'm removing a star for the service. If you have to come here, get a quesadilla as those looks better than the rest. read more

Fun ambiance with Nacho Libre flavored decor. Great place for happy hour or grabbing a drink and a bite with friends after work. Food was modern Mexican style. Highly recommend their guava marg. Friendly service. read more

We came as a group during lunch time, it was not very busy. As a group, we were lucky to be seated right away. The decor and vibe of this place is super cute. They have lots of art and even a duck hunt game when you first walk in. Our waitress was so sweet, and very attentive to us. We ordered nachos for the table which were amazing. It was enough for the whole group, I am not sure how two people could finish it and move onto their entree. The margaritas were amazing! The presentation in a little pineapple shaped glass was unique. The margarita did not make you feel heavy afterwards either. The chicken quesadilla was really good. The salsa on the side was 10/10, I loved it the most. I enjoyed the food here as it doesn't make you feel heavy afterwards. Overall it was a great experience. read more

Fun spot for a bite of Mexican inspired food. Wouldn't go here for authentic Mexican food, but it was comforting and the servings were generous. Tried the street corn and the duck carnitas quesadilla. Corm was a tad under salted but was otherwise sweet, bright, and melded well with the lime juice and cotija cheese. Wish the quesadilla was a bit mixed in toppings - it was a lot of duck meat and cheese without vegetables or anything that could help cut the heaviness of the meat. Tasted good and it was a large serving of meat but I got full very quickly. Ate half and the rest reheated well as leftovers. read more

I was really disappointed with my last visit to Lucharitos. While the food was delicious, the experience around it was extremely lackluster. Our waitress was terrible and seemed slightly annoyed when we were asking about menu items. On top of that she was incredibly slow. We had ask a second server to bring us utensils because our waitress brought our food but then was nowhere to be found when we needed forks to eat it. My friend ordered a drink that came out way too sweet and tasted like it has zero alcohol in it. When she went to the bartender to ask her to make a new one the bartender was so rude and nasty about it. We had three kids with us and two meals came out together, the last was about 15 minutes behind. I understand that the kitchen can get backed up but a little heads up would have been nice. Lastly the waitress was clearing the table and she dropped a thing of ketchup oh the floor which splashed up and went all over my husband's sweatshirt and hat. I understand that it was an accident, and that's fine, but she never apologized and it took her about 15 minutes to come back with extra napkins. Maybe takeout from here is the best way to go? read more

Yes, I did return for another taste. My favorite seating area is in the inviting bar in the centerpiece of the restaurant, Besides their food menu options, Lucharitos presents an extensive menu filled with a variety of mezcal and tequila options to explore. Among the highlights is their famed jalapeño margarita rumored to be a must-try; I would agree since I finally tried it. read more

Such a beautiful and fun place for all ages ! First off , being an OG WWF fan , loved looking at all the different pictures of some great wrestlers. Second, the good food ! We started with the appetizer of the day - Philadelphia Cheesesteak empanadas. Crispy outside and soft inside - what a cool curated starter ! Had the chicken tacos - crunchy shell and real tasty chicken. The server Jaydah could not have been more friendly and kind . When an establishment has employees like her , it is more inviting. And That's the Bottom Line Cos' I Said So! read more

I donate blood across the street every couple of months so I have wanted to check this place out for a while and this last Tuesday, we did. The atmosphere is fun and very, very casual. It seemed to need a good cleaning though. We were greeted warmly and our server was attentive despite the fact that she also made the drinks and delivered the food. It was a Tuesday afternoon so maybe that's why. The food was very basic and not at all traditional Mexican. They seemed to put a spin on the traditional Mexican by adding different things like buffalo cauliflower but for me it didn't work. I did not like my watermelon mint margarita either unfortunately. I wouldn't return read more

Great service, delicious food and drinks. You cannot beat the happy hour! Great ambiance and decor.

I gotta give this one a hard pass. Stopped here for lunch and immediately thought "what's the point". We sat down and got the menu and noticed how expensive it was. It was lunchtime and there was no lunch menu, whatever, but what got me was that everything was à la carte. That's kind of weird for a Tex-mex place. Tacos started at like 6$ and went up. You could add rice and beans for 5$. There was also no combo plates. Any Mexican/tex mex place has combos. 2 tacos, or like one enchilada and a taco, or one enchilada and a burrito etc etc. really weird. I got the fajitas which while they weren't bad, I could've made it in my kitchen, and I'm Irish. There was nothing special about it. I hate giving such a low score for a locally owned place, but if you want Mexican or Tex-mex, there's much better options that don't cost a premium. read more

The decor is very cheesy to the point of cuteness. But don't be fooled by the look, the food is good! Loved the Al pastor, carne asada, and mahi mahi tacos read more

On a fluke, I was passing by and saw this attractive restaurant and suddenly made a decision I was hungry for Mexican food! So I went in and boy am I glad I did! The food was excellent. The restaurant was immaculate. They also offered outdoor seating which was really pleasant. The servers were some of the best I've ever encountered. It was so good, I can't wait to return! We ate the Flower Power burrito and the Classic Nachos- vegetarian. Who knew grilled broccoli and zucchini could be so delicious on nachos! read more

Don't be fooled by the sparking clean and interesting decor, our food was not good and I would recommend coming during their 5 dollar taco times so that you at least don't waste too much $$. Loved how my Nacho looked, but underneath the meat was pathetically dry and impossible to eat. Jalapeños were left off. The tomatoes on my friends Frieda salad were embarrassing. Really a shame because the place is cute. Watch your receipt We split the bill on cards and the tip suggestion was listed on the receipt as if it was the entire total, something I've never seen. While it was our bad, we left over a tip of over 6 bucks each for a tab of 18 dollars... adds salt to the wound. Not recommended other than their special times at best. read more

Very delicious meal at Luncharitos! Natalie was incredibly accommodating and went above and beyond to help us navigate the menu since we have allergies. She came over, explained everything clearly, and was so friendly and welcoming the whole time. The hospitality alone made the visit amazing. On top of that, the food was a 10/10. Thank you Natalie for making the experience so great. Also love the way it's decorated. read more

There are a few Lucharitos locations. I went to the one in Melville. There is a huge parking lot so you wouldn't need to worry about parking. There are also options to sit outside or inside. Since it was a beautiful day, my friend and I came here for lunch and sat outside. We were seated quickly. Many tables inside were filled. I ordered the Coconut Shrimp Taco which is on the menu as "A best seller!" It had crispy coconut shrimp and mango salsa with pickled cabbage, corn salsa, & chipotle mayo. I also ordered the Crescent Farm Duck Taco. It had pulled BBQ local duck with pickled cabbage, corn salsa, & chipotle mayo. The duck was a little dry. I definitely liked the refreshing flavors of the Coconut Shrimp Taco more than the Crescent Farm Duck Taco. Each of the tacos were $7.50 which is a little steep for 1 taco. Service was fine and the waitress needed to keep walking in and out of the restaurant. There were no complimentary chips or anything. read more

Came here for lunch to try this place out. For the apps we tried chips and guacamole which tasted like a store bought guac. Not made to order or made for the day. We were good without having that. The shrimp empanadas on the other hand was really good. For the main order I ordered the soft and crunch shell. Which is basically a hard taco inside a soft tortilla. You have the option of how you want the taco.(soft, hard taco). So I ordered the coconut shrimp tacos and Al pastor which wasn't bad. Also not pictured is the Mexican street corn that came with chips. Its okay but seem more like a "dipping" style rather then as a side dish. The waitress was the host and everything in between. She was nice and attentive to everyone. I would go back there but now I know what to get and what I can pass on. read more

Another great meal at Lucharitos. First time at this location. I had the fish tacos (Mahi Mahi) which were delicious even though I typically prefer the breaded/coated fish. This was healthier and very fresh. Loved the pickled cabbage and corn on my tacos. My husband had a ginormous platter of nachos. It had three kinds of meat: chicken, ground beef and pork. Piled on was cheese, guacamole, jalapeño and beans. I had a taste of the chicken and the pork and both were so delicious, packed with flavor and not at all dry. The nachos are meant to share but he decided to have it as his lunch. Halfway through, he realized he was full but he kept on eating because it was so good. Service was great. Great experience and I would come back again and recommend. I've now been to three Lucharitos. So far I've not been disappointed. read more

Driven past this place for some time and always wanted to try it. It's a very nice set up with vintage wrestling memorabilia on the walls and a cool centered bar. The service was very warm and kind with us. The drinks were very good and arguably one of the best margaritas I've had this year!. I just did not find the food great. And this is our collective opinion of my entree and hers and the shared appetizer. Not sure if it was the quality of the ingredients and the seasoning but something is just off in the food. Again amazing margaritas and service but they food quality is just not great. I'd stop off for happy hour though! read more

Lucharitos does two things extremely well: duck and hot sauce. They also have wonderful service and their Lucha decorations are so fun/cool. Their duck quesadilla is something I crave regularly. I don't live nearby but I make the trip to get it when the craving hits - they cook it perfectly! On this trip, we noticed they had new house made hot sauces we had never tried. We tried the hot honey, mango habanero, and pineapple passion and were blown away. They were perfectly balanced. Perfect amount of spice but so much flavor. Luckily for us a young man named Chris came over to check on how our meal was going, we told him how much we loved the sauces. He thanked us and let us know he was actually the one who makes them. I asked if we could buy them and he said yes! 3 bottles later, I can't wait to put it on everything. I hope they sell more of them, I'd come back just for the hot honey sauce alone. read more

Passed by this nice little spot after visiting a Winery in Jamesport. The place is nice and drinks are good too. But there was this waiter, young little girl, very rude, she was at the bar but she said to the other worker "are you taking care of these two?" Which I find very rude maybe cause we're Hispanics and she's not? Hello "she works at a Mexican restaurant. Anyhow her tone and demeanor toward us was very rude and condescending. Even though the other waiters were very nice and attentive to us, her whole attitude messed up our night. Therefore, check in the box, not coming back there. To the other waiters good job at treating customers pleasantly good. read more

Just visited today and decided to check this place out for lunch. The inside had a lot of pop of color and the whole decor was fun. It was decently busy but not super loud inside. Our waitress was very nice and quick with bringing drinks and food out. My boyfriend got a carne asada taco and the duck taco. Both he said were fresh and delicious. I ordered the burrito bowl with bbq pulled pork (which was one of the protein options). I did ask for no sour cream in my bowl but once it came out, there was sour cream on it but whatever. Overall all the ingredients blended well together and everything was fresh! This place was pretty good! I'd come back here again soon! read more

Came here for a work function. and overall just an okay place. They really love nachos here and fill try to fill you up with nacho as much as possible.

We were hungry after mall shopping on a Saturday and I have heard great things about the out east location and decided to try this location. We had no problem getting a table and the decor was really cool. The food was just meh. None of the appetizers caught our eye so we went straight to ordering entrees. My husband ordered off the specials menu a short rib quesadilla and only later did we realize the specials menu has no prices on it. Had we seen the price, probably would have skipped that one lol but he enjoyed it. I got a burrito bowl which I customized and a passionfruit aqua fresca. The drink was delicious and I would absolutely have it again and maybe try their other flavors. I was a little taken aback that my bowl was not hot. Some parts were cold and some parts were room temperature and I ordered double steak but I'm not sure I got double steak (if I did the regular steak portion is fit for a toddler). My kid got chicken fingers and fries. The fries are a fun shape and like most kids she ate them first and the chicken was an after thought. Our bill was like $85 and we could not fathom how we spent that much with no appetizers and no desserts and since we were not blown away by the food, we probably will not be back. read more

I went there for the first time with a friend, which she recommended, for lunch and I love the place. The employees there were very nice and informative. The place is big and I love the decor it has. They have a nice sized bar, which if you go in, it's to the right. There are a lot of seats and a long family table which is nice to see. The food was GREAT. I have to go back to try more. read more

Eh what a bummer of a lunch. We were heading to Whole Foods and stopped because I had heard good things. Cold, cafeteria vibe with flags and stuff hanging. Prices pretty crazy for super flavorless subpar food. Granted we are world travelers used to real flavors but pretty shocked at how not good this food was. Chips seemed stale, salsa was like worse than grocery store salsa. Two tacos absolutely uninspired and my husbands fajitas came with three tiny tortillas. I know it's a strip mall place but come on for a $40 lunch with no drinks and apps? Will not return. read more

On the way home from picking up supplies, we dropped into Lucharitos in Melville for some tacos. Ambience - brightly lit and decoratively festive. Friendly staff that checked in on us frequently. Food: we ordered: The Nacho Man - ground beef taco. They were generous with the toppings, but some of the tortilla chips were stale. 3/5 Al Pastor Tacos - Marinated Pork with Pineapple. The pork was flavorful but dry. 3/5 Carne Asada Taco - steak taco. This was also really dry. 3/5 Verdict: we went there at 8:30 PM. Perhaps all the meat was cooked in batches earlier in the day and dried out at night? read more

lol I ordered 1 order and it was great and then I ordered 3 more which consisted of margaritas and sides and they got everything wrong. I've never tasted such a salty margarita in my life. Avoid at all cost. This place smells of that there's an owner that never shows up and it's just run by a bunch of people that dgaf. Probably high schoolers. What's the point of owning a business when you provide trash 90% of the time. read more

Tried the Melville location for the first time since we've been to the Greenport location and really enjoyed it. This spot is solid. Quality, tasty food that you can come to expect from Lucharitos! Our burrito and tacos were a good portions and really tasty. Mexican street corn was also good, but not the best I've had (it'll sate your appetite if you're in the mood for it). We ate outside which is nice if the weather is. The location itself isn't as great as the Greenport spot, and place did feel a little messy (maybe the weekend crowd is to blame), but works for Melville! Worth a stop if you're out this way. read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch. I knew nothing of the location or restaurant prior to arriving, I just happened to be driving by. I looked tat the reviews while waiting for service. It was quick and I noticed a 3.5 star rating. I was surprised based on the look and feel in the restaurant. The atmosphere is bright and pleasant. I immediately noticed the price for the burrito o was ordering was 17 dollars. I thought it was high, but let's see the taste and size The burrito was "normal" it terms of size. It wasn't skimpy, but not overflowing either. It came with 8 tortilla chips (not many) and no salsa which I thought was a little weird. It was fair but nothing to really brag about. Then it dawned on me. 3.5 stars seems just about right. read more

We ordered take out and I thought it was ok. The nachos were good and come deconstructed for takeout so everything doesn't get mushy. The issue is my son got the mac and cheese nachos and the chicken and the pasta was cold and dried out and because there was no cheese on it. The quesadilla was good. All requests and/or substitutions were honored and the order was correct. Next time, I would eat there because I think it would be better coming right from the kitchen. read more

Your Taco Tuesday is gonna be lit! Lucharitos has this awesome vibe where you feel like you're on vacation and an awesome Mexican wrestling pop up. The nachos are not to be fooled around with, those bad boys are serious. The duck is some of the tastiest I've ever had and on nachos is so meant to be. The tacos had a super authentic taste and come in sets of 2 or 3. You can eat them all by yourself or share with a friend. The drinks are perfect, not too strong not too weak. The service is great they're super attentive to your needs and get your food out fast. The full bar is an awesome spot to just come chill and enjoy a little something while you drink. And the desserts are the bomb, make sure you get the churros and if you got room the tres leches cake was epic as well.
