Restaurantji's Merrick recommendations for the finest Mexican cuisine.
“I absolutely love this place! Their food does not disappoint. The portions are great. I love the chicken tacos, chicken burrito and steak burrito. Plus the guac is not extra in the burrito. The burritos are so big and filling. Support local business and come to taquitos grill and forget about chipotle and moes! This place blows them away!!!!“
“I've been to the Margarita's in East Meadow many times, this was my first time at the Merrick branch. The food is similar but the Merrick outpost is much smaller than E.M., with funky decor and (IMHO) better food. I didn't have a rez, got the only empty table as a walk-in. Service was friendly but slow as only one person was serving the whole place plus there was a glitch with our order, but the excellent food and drink quality made up for those issues. We were too early for the Tuesday $3.50 margarita happy hour (starts at 4:00), so shared a half pitcher of house margaritas instead - they were tasty and strong. (Please don't judge me for early alcohol intake, had a hellish morning so needed a nice numbing agent:) My Mole Poblano Enchiladas were fantastic, 3 of them loaded with chunks of chicken and covered with a sublime mole sauce. Partner's Burrito Mojado was made with skirt steak, he said it was delicious as well. The dishes came with yummy rice and beans, and each plate was embellished with a lovely purple orchid.“
“Got my order almost right. They left out all the hot sauce I ordered with my tacos. You can't order from a human, and you must use a kiosk. The last thing it asks is what kind and how many packets of hot sauce you want. Ar least the food was ready quickly. They also didn't know if I had paid or not. I had paid with a credit card at the kiosk.“
“I've been to several Chipotles but I'm very happy this one is close to my house on Long Island. The folks who work here are always helpful and I love the food, especially the salad bowls and the new chicken al pastor. Excellent place for lunch ?Parking: Very easy to park“
“Shared 4 assorted tacos (fish, lengua, birria & carnitas) with my wife for snack, craved for more. I don’t usually get Lengua (tongue) because of funky after taste from previous experience. At Mala Madre, lengua was so tender, butter and beefy. Will definitely come back for more.“
“Had a delicious lunch at Fat Boys! Every single bite was an explosion of flavors! I cannot decide if I enjoyed the steak bowl, the quesadilla or the nachos more. The staff is so attentive. Will definitely be back.Kid-friendliness: My 10 yr old daughter loved it all!!!“
“It’s a owner operator business, Manuel, is a star! Went in for lunch with my good friend he was Very attentive. We had the shrimp quesadilla and chicken crunch wrap! Three different mild sauces and three different hot sauces . Their homemade hot sauce was excellent! Chorizos was spectacular! Nobody’s gonna run it the way you want it! Thank you Manuel!Parking: I had no problem parking in front of the business.“
“Been here a couple of times, and each time the food and the service has been amazing! Has definitely become one of my favourite spots for Mexican food in all of Long Island. I can’t wait to keep trying different items on the menu until I’ve tried everything they have to offer. This place is great in every aspect, and worth every penny! The photos are from the last time I went with my boyfriend, we got the birria tacos and el burrito chingon. Portion sizes were perfect!“
“It has a nice cute theme and awesome food all the food is good takes some time to come out but is 100% worth it you should definitely try to come here if you have time!Kid-friendliness: There’s a kids menu with lots of amazing options for the little ones the best menu item from kids menu is probably quesadillas?“
“Good food had a Al pastor burrito and tacos, and birria quesadillas. The chips were made there. I ordered picking up from DoorDash so I am not sure about the service but it was a they serve you what you want down a line kind of place too. They have a .75 per lb burrito and some lunch specials I am interested to try.“
