    Strawberry Margarita
    Ashley W.

    Good food and drinks. Moderately priced. Service is quick service - you order at the counter. Very chill vibes inside. Food wasn't bad and glad I went. Got nachos and a chicken quesadilla. Strawberry margarita was delicious! But I think there's better Mexican options in WR.

    Food 5 Ambiance 5 What a little gem!! Stumbled across this spot, across from the pond in the heart of sweet little Wading River. They have great choices of Tacos- duck, jerk chicken, fish.. Cocktails and Beer available as well. Small little spot, but it feels Classic.

    Tacos- Jerk Chicken, Pulled Pork, Hot and Crunchy. All really good!!! Esp the pulled pork and hot and crunchy

    The Chicken Tortilla soup is amazing. Also ask for their homemade hot sauce if you like spicy.

    I go to Mesquite about 1 to 2 times a week. It's a great spot to grab a taco or salad. I've never been disappointed at Mesquite!

    Buried my father today at Calverton Cemetery and found this spot close by. I love local Mexican…read morespots and this one didn't disappoint. Mango margaritas on the rocks with no sugar or salt rims. We started off with 2 orders of chicken empanadas. My mom got the chicken tortilla soup and it was so flavorful and full of chicken, chips and corn. I got the chicken tinga tacos which came with crema sauce and topped with cheese.

    Last Fall I had this experience at Senor Taco in Wading River…read more... I used to go regularly there but the last two times it was not very good and the prices they quoted me were then almost doubled when the bill came! The tacos were smaller with less filling than usual, and the guac and salsa were very stringy. The waitress told me they had a special lunch pricing for tacos of any kind. I asked her if two specific tacos they showed were included in that lunch special, she replied "Yes they are". Besides the aforementioned quality issues with the food, when the bill came the price was more than 50% higher than the special was priced at. I asked the waitress why. She said those two tacos were not included. I said to her, "You told me they were!?" She repeated "No they weren't" and she called someone from behind the counter over to the table. The situation was explained, the other person repeated "Sorry sir, they are not included" and didn't care that their waitress said they were (the waitress admitted she said that!) and they charged me full price despite the misinformation they gave me. No apology, no doing the right thing, nothing. I paid the bill, left, and have not been back. In summation: The food was so-so. The service was not good. The attitude was poor. And the price was a ripoff.

    So I stopped by with my family tonight for a quick bite out. I've had Taco Island once before but…read moreto take home, I don't recall what I got the first time around but I do remember being impressed. Growing up in New Mexico and Texas, I find it hard to find a spot on LI that helps satisfy the craving for good Mexican/TexMex. Tonight, we got a pretty good platter of food. My wife and I got a total of 8 tacos, 4 Birria tacos (2 of each), and 4 street tacos. (2 carne asada, 2 carnitas). My kids each got a quesadilla, regular and chicken bacon ranch. I tried the chicken bacon ranch and that thing was pretty serious lol. My kids could have definitely just shared one. With all of that being said, the carne asada street tacos were definitely my favorite of everything, followed by the carnitas then finally the birria tacos. The salsa verde they served in the cup was as authentic as they come, and I put that sh** on every single bite. Something about the salsa verde in the bottle just wasn't hitting the same. As my family was wrapping everything up, this nice young lady approached us and offered complimentary churros for the kids! Super nice of them. This experience was definitely a 9/10 for me. I would probably just skip the birria tacos next time, personally.

    The food from Taco Island is packed with flavors and seasonings that will satisfy any craving! My…read morefavorite of there is the birria quesadilla and their nachos!
