“Excellent food and service“

“Absolutely amazing! My daughter and I had an appointment in the area today, and being not from the area I asked for recommendations on the Long Island Foodies page. You did not disappoint!! We ordered four tacos (the crispy chicken was my favorite,) corn, jalapeño poppers and drinks. Every single item was amazing! Then the staff - we are outside and from the first staff member we met to the last the service was top notch! Extra thanks to the gentleman who made sure to bring me out some Fat Boy Sauce, because I mentioned it was our first time he said “you have to have it.” He was right. We did! And Sal. Every restaurant should have someone as welcoming and lovely as Sal. He made us feel like regulars on our first time. My daughter has already asked to take the hour trip back again next week, and I’m thinking about it.“

“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!“

We ordered 4 tacos, the mixed grill entree, 2 sides, and a natural juice. Everything was delicious even after being reheated the next day. The service was prompt and attentive. We will definitely be returning.“

“Taste Haven fills a void in the area for healthy flavorful food. I really enjoy their paninis and smoothies and am excited to try more of the menu. I recommend ordering ahead and picking up because the food is made fresh and takes a bit. They also have online ordering, delivery and meal prep but haven’t tried that yet.“

“My gf and I were on the hunt for some good authentic Mexican tacos. We stumbled upon this place on a whim doing a quick google search and the reviews were very good. So we decided to stop in for dinner and we quickly realized why! Everything was on point from the customer service, to the food/food quality and the portions. We will return…“

“We came here on a thurs even around 6pm...Was pretty crowded but got a table in the middle..The sound level is pretty high at 3/4 capacity but somehow you seem to flow with it because of the atmosphere... People enjoying good mex food are more enjoyable to be around for some reason..anyway...lighting as with most place is difficult to read menu but once the order was in,alot of fun...I noticed the food to be very FRESH...I immediately tasted that in the beans on my Mexican special and the Flautas,chimichanga etc were all delicious stuffed and perfectly cooked!..Fajita steak was so nicely marinated and charred but med inside..Perfect!..Wait staff were all very pleasant....I enjoyed my visit and will defin visit during a slow day,maybe lunch for a lil more quiet....“

“It wasn't busy, we went in For the taco Tuesday deal. We ordered carnitas taco, fish taco and lamb taco. It was all delicious. My number one choice would be carnita taco which had so much tasty meat, followed by lamb taco with the fresh elements of cilantro and lettuce and then the fish taco with mango pieces. On a tuesday the atmosphere was very calm and not so busy. The staff even though they were the only table attending staff Kai and Danny were extremely attentive. Will definitely be going back for more.“

“My Fiancé l live in Huntington Beach about 15 minutes away from Owen’s Tacos. We decided to try this place and as soon as we arrived we were greeted by the person behind the counter who was very attentive, probably the owner. Any ways, with so many things to chose from we decided to try the steak nachos and hamburger with fries. Let me say that we were very impressed with the service and quality of food. The nachos had good size pierces of steak and the whole plate was delicious. The hamburger you could tell was seasoned inside and it tasted amazing, you will not be disappointed if you like Latin American style hamburgers. We also had the Horchata drink which is a typical Central American grain based sweet water drink. Amazing!“

“Very good tacos, good location, good service. Only downside to this place is the lack of seating and overall interior of the store. Would definitely be a lot lot better with more seating and an interior change, but I can get over that for some of the best local tacos.“

“Great place Gentlemen with glasses and hat backwards was awesome. Great portions very flavorful. Will be back.“

“Al pastor taco, side a guacamole and chips. Are always a must!! The burritos are so Bomb. Best taco/burritos in the area. They also have fresh juices they make daily. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Haven’t tried the carne asada that they recommended but I will be back.“

“Stopped in here with my wife today. It was 3:30 on Friday, we were the only ones in there, as we expected at that time. It was nice to see a family run restaurant. The owner was the chef, his wife and daughter the servers. Food was really good. We started with the guacamole and we ordered the mussels. The chef came out and said the mussels came in a little small today and asked if we would like the clams instead. We said why not. The broth in this clam dish was fantastic. Then he came back out and asked if we want to try his carrot soup. One of the best soups I've literally ever had. Then we finished with steak fajitas and the flautas. Both great dishes. They were really friendly and nice people. We really appreciated their service and kindness. Also don't forget to get the red sangria it's amazing.“

“It doesn't look like much from the outside but this place is very good. My wife and I live down the street and we come here at least once a week. We try to make it down for taco Tuesdays they have $3 Tacos and they are delicious. My favorite is the Al Pastor, and maybe the chorizo at a close second, but they are all super tasty. I also love their home made Sopes tortillas and the quesadillas. In addition to the delicious food the owners are so nice so it makes you want to keep coming back. Get the jalapeño margarita if you can handle the heat. You won't be disappointed.“

“I ate green chilaquiles with cecina and the truth, delicious!The compa Miguel is very friendly, the waitress is very attentive. Thank you for your service, the food and the attention have no complaints!A good place to fill your belly!Blessings Michael!!“

“Best Delivery Food Around! Food is always hot, delivery is extremely quick, people are great and the food is the BEST!!!!“

“Such an underrated gem in Seaford. They have both a nice patio in the back decorated to give all the island vibes as well seating out front on the street side, and of course indoor availability. Service was very personable and quick from drinks through the end of the meal. They certainly don't skimp on the variety of options food wise from starters, quesadillas, tacos to wraps etc. Drink wise I went with the "Mammacita Needs A Margarita" aka a Spicy Marg. Loved the addition of cucumber to the drink to balance it and give it a little refreshing aspect. Food wise we just got a smattering of tacos (Luger, Tropical Lobstahhh, Birria, Al Pastor, Carne Smack Dat Asad and the Cali-Flower) just to try and sample a little of everything. First and foremost, the portions are legit - they don't skimp out so you'll be full or even have extra to take home. Taste wise, my top 3 were the Luger, Lobster and Cali-Flower. All very flavorful and unique in their own way. Definitely will be back once the weather heats up!“

“Such delicious and fresh Mexican food with great specials / pricing. You can tell the family / owner takes price in their restaurant. We ordered the empanadas, burritos, tacos, rice and beans and all were equally yummy. Nothing was greasy - all freshly prepared. They also have a selection of hot sauces you can choose from and each were so flavorful. I just came back for more empanadas today! This is our new weekly spot for takeout. Also, their dining room has a beautiful mural. You won’t regret eating here!“

“Went in for the first time on Friday and the food was fresh, homemade and delicious. They were very nice and welcoming. We went back tonight and once again they were helpful in what to order. The food was the same delicious and homemade. The salsa… just yummy!! Highly recommend.“

“This restaurant not only has the best food, but the kindest staff ever! We had a change in plans so I called in an order last min for a group of 10 people on a Friday. They accepted the order while having other huge parties AND during the crazy Fri night dinner rush... did not skimp on a single thing. The food was delivered hot and packaged incredibly! They are the best!!!!!“

“This place is great for authentic Mexican food. I ordered a chorizo taco and Cubana sandwich. My friend ordered a couple tacos and and a tostada. (See photos)On a Sunday afternoon it was very busy, which I didn't really expect, but I took it as a good sign. My friend that took me there has been there several times, it is currently her favourite taco spot ??“

“we ordered takeout and were so impressed by the food. we typed out a lot of modifications and they were all correctly applied, and everything was absolutely delicious. highly recommend the quesadillas and burritos! will definitely come again.“

“Food is getting better.. the service is okay but stable. The environment can use some help as the tables are often sticky. Getting expensive.Parking: Lots of free parkingKid-friendliness: Kids are welcome.Wheelchair accessibility: Not sure if the doors are automatic and there are 2 of them“

“This place is great! The food is excellent and Rodrigo is a fantastic cook! Highly recommended!“

“I had tripe tacos, which were big and tasty. The server took a few minutes to take my order, and the restaurant was cold, but the temperature was corrected after a while. The TV was also loud. I had only eaten there once, but I would definitely return for more tacos.“

“We LOVE Besito! It was crowded for Cinco de Mayo and I got concerned we would wait a long time for our table, but they sat us right way. Food & drinks were delicious & service for a busy day was still AWESOME! Their guacamole is the best! Even great Iced Tea, but definitely recommend the tequila flights & margaritas.“
