Chicken Burrito
haruka o.

Pretty neutral Mexican place in my opinion. Free chips & salsa, filling burrito, and fast service. Additionally, it's an order ahead place rather than a restaurant. My friends and I went around 3 pm on a weekday, but we were the only party, so it was nice&quiet but a bit sad at the same time.

I paid over $16 for a salad that was very small. The best part was the shell. The chicken was dry and fatty. There was not much lettuce or black beans. The Pico de Gallo was like I was eating a whole onion. The Rockville Centre location is much better. There were more workers than patrons.

The food was really good and the prices were fair for the Stony Brook area. I had the burrito vegetarian and it was absolutely delicious. I also ordered steak fajitas (she demolished those), chicken burrito grande (she inhaled it), burrito shrimp (she liked it but gave her huge avocado slices to me, which I loved), the taco primos are basically small tacos so if you want those maybe get a bowl (my daughter wasn't so pleased about that and had to get a second one). Our dear family friend was annoyed that they ran out of ground beef and couldn't quite get her alternate order right and our other friend got a wet burrito which she enjoyed. So everyone pretty much enjoyed their food. I was surprised however that since we ate in and hardly anyone was eating in (socially distanced) that we had to order chips and pico de gallo for the table- it should have been included. Every Mexican restaurant I've been to ever provides that to the table, especially considering we placed a very large order for 8 people. That was my only complaint. The restroom is a single toilet and complimented nicely.

Menu

Customer service was standard. The food itself. Quiet poor. The signature Green cactus burrito is what I ordered. The burrito dripped throughout the whole time, and I ended up giving up two-thirds through since the burrito was covered in the sauce. The ratios were so poorly done. The first 3-4 bites I took were almost solely pico de gaio (forgive my spelling), and it was honestly disgusting just taking a bite full of tortilla and tomatoes.

This "temporary" price inflation has been the same for a year now....

See all

Always loved Green cactus for years. Enjoy the new menu items they added - The birria tacos and sweet tamales.

Food was cold, soggy and made incorrectly. Tasted horrendously. Literally Taco Bell is way better.
