    Bourbon chicken cheese fries

    I've been coming here for years and I am highly disappointed in the service. I understand due to Covid and inflation that prices are going up however after checking my bag before leaving. I noticed that the bourbon chicken was extremely dry and I asked for just a little sauce on top of the chicken. She told me that she put a lot already and that I would be $.75 extra for the sauce.

    gaucamole

    Take out date: March 15, 2014 So I got really happy that I found a Mexican place to deliver in Babylon. Green cactus shut down (and they had stopped delivering before that), Swell Taco doesn't deliver, and Del Feugo doesn't deliver. I was pressed for time but really wanted Mexican on Saturday so I found this place, placed an order with them and went about my business until my food was delivered. When the Chinese guy delivered my Mexican food, and I figured out that this was one of those Mexican food cooked by Chinese people sort of a deal (like this place my parent's have in Baldwin) I figured the food might not be all that good. The guac was pretty disgusting, it had a Mayo type of consistency. My suggestion don't get the gauc here. The Nachos were interesting. At first I thought they were good despite the fact that they used the same type of melted cheese that Taco Bell, 711, and the movie theatres use (sorry I like fresh cheese unless I'm at Taco Bell, 711, or the movie theatre). As I munched on more chips though a few of the nacho chips did seem stale to me. My burrito was not wrapped the correct way. I had to keep it in the tinfoil to eat it. It was alright. Chock full of veggies that did seem pretty fresh, they did include rice in it, along with melted movie theatre nacho cheese. I was starving so I wolfed down the food, it was edible or I wouldn't have eaten it but it definitely wasn't one of my favorite meals. I think I'll stick to having to pick up my Mexican food or eat it in restaurant, unless some of Island Grill's competition starts to deliver! *hint hint* swell taco!

    Bourbon chicken over rice
    Henry M.

    Yea, not quite sure where to put this place. It's a Mexican restaurant run by Chinese in an American Chinese take-out sort of fashion. It's cheap and, when my coworkers suggested we order from here, I did not know what to expect. I got the bourbon chicken over rice, which was under $4 delivered to me. It wasn't great. The bourbon chicken just tasted salty with no real discernible flavor. The rice underneath it was soggy and also quite salty. The rice was like the kind of rice that is made from a box or purchased frozen and just reheated. The guacamole was a weird concoction of guac, salsa, and sour cream resulting in a sort of liquidy sauce that tasted nothing of guacamole. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't good. I used some of it to give the bourbon chicken some flavor. Would I come back here? No. But I guess if you're in the mood for Asianized Americalized Mexican food delivered to your door for less than the cost of a frozen Hungry Man dinner, Island Grill is for you.

    Hard Shell Ground Beef Taco
    Christina J.

    Got the regular hard shell tacos tonight. Plenty of meat. It's just the meat has a kind of sweetness to it that I'm not a fan of. Not bad. It might appeal to someone else's palate, just not mine.

    Phenomenal Mexican food at Ruta Oaxaca... the Woodbury location. Pretty much my favorite Mexican…read morefood restaurant... too bad we live almost 3,000 miles away. Yeah, you read that correctly... not a typo. We were visiting my daughter and her family while on Long Island, but we had to fend for ourselves one evening while they had other plans. We were in the mood for Mexican food, so Yelp to the rescue... and this place popped up. Well, it lived up to all the hype, I'm happy to say. The restaurant is really small... the only negative... and it can get kind of loud, so okay, two negatives, but the food more than made up for it. We had a really good waiter, who was very helpful in helping us place our order. We ordered guacamole, and they made it to our specifications, minus the hot peppers and cilantro. It was FABULOUS and just like I like it.... as good as Besito, by the way !!! I love that place, too. However, what really won me over was this salmon dish in red mole sauce, which I had never had before. It was AMAAAAAAZING. My husband and I SPLIT an order of their Salmon Con Tropical Mole, which was pan-roasted filet of salmon, mole manchamanteles, sweet plantains, papaya pico de gallo. We got some extra plantains and some street corn, and with the gargantuan size of salmon, it was more than enough for the both of us... plus we definitely filled up on chips and salsa (and guac for me). Everything was superb, and I want to say that the salmon was some of the best I've ever had. It was flaky, flavorful and succulent with a very light but appreciated outer crunch. It was soooooooooooo good. So we came away from this place, raving to everyone and anyone who would listen. We talked my daughter and son-in-law into ordering takeout from here as they were worried it was just too small to deal with a bunch of us going, esp. with their young children. Anyway, I'm disappointed to say that their takeout was an entirely different situation. We ordered the "same" salmon dish, and it was like HALF the size. It was the size for one... not that two could split. (If you look at my photo of it, you'll see how large it was... now cut it in half... that's what we got on takeout.) I let my husband have it cuz I was too angry. It had the mole sauce, but I didn't care once I saw it.... plus the salmon itself looked different... it didn't have that nice crunchy shell from pan roasting it. Just so disappointing. The guacamole was still as good as I remember, as was their salsa... but the portion size and quality of preparation... at least with the salmon... was an abomination. I can't speak to what my daughter and son-in-law ordered for entrees because we didn't try it in the restaurant, so we have no point of reference. I feel bad because I raved and raved about their food, and this takeout experience sucked. There should be NO difference. I guess my takeaway would be to recommend that you dine-in there. I'm awarding all FIVE stars for DINE-IN ONLY... and nothing to do with their takeout process. Brave the crowds because they will be there, make a reservation which will help, and eat THERE. I just don't trust the takeout experience with them.

My date had the verde entree and it was really good. She enjoyed it. The chips and salsa on the table were delicious and the they are clearly homemade. Ambiance is "ok". It's showing its age a bit on the flooring and the molding. The service is why I'm deducting point and I'd give them 3.5 stars if I could. We sat a bit and waited to have our orders taken and sat a bit longer for the check. They were nice, polite, friendly but a little quicker service would have been appreciated. Would I go back? Sure. I'll try something else.

The place has a very nice vibe with the focus being on the bar. You have to pay for chips and salsa, they aren't included, but I will say the chips were freshly fried and the red salsa was good, the green needs some help because it tasted of celery a bit?!?! I got the mushroom truffle empanadas which were good but could have been less salty. The empanada dough was great though, super crispy and thin! Daughter got the birria empanadas which were great as was the consommé! Hubs got 3 different tacos of which I know one was an avocado taco where they deep fry it and it had been over-fried because the middle was pretty empty! Daughter got the cantaloupe margarita, hubs got the coconut margarita and I had the Spanish gin and tonic. All were good but mine had a LOT of mint so It so it was hard to drink without a stew which meant I got peppercorns up the straw. I didn't complain about anything which is why I gave 4 stars because I believe you should give them a chance to fix anything if you are going to rate low. I would give them another try but... chips and salsa should be a free starter in my mind and lay off the salt just a bit!

We sat in their insulated outdoor area amidst string lights and beachy vibes, and every meal starts out with their addicting tortilla chips and salsa verde. (Pro-tip -- save some of this green salsa to have with whatever you order!) We tried their chicken flautas appetizer, and if you are a fan of all that is cheesy and crispy, you will definitely enjoy this one. My favorite item on the menu was next -- the Crunch and Munch ground beef taco -- this literally was an elevated version of Taco Bell's cheesy Gordita crunch, and it made me super happy. We also shared their shredded beef burrito (think barbacoa), which was a Saturday special, but honestly, any of their burritos would be worthwhile. (I dare say that the burritos also feel kind of light? They are not over-the-top in the best way possible!) If you're looking for a casual taco spot after a day at Robert Moses or Overlook Beach (or any day, really), definitely check this place out -- you will fall in love after the first flavorful bite.

Arianna was my server during a recent Happy Hour. She recommended that G4 Tequila be used for the Margarita that I ordered, and I subbed Triple Sec for a touch of Cointreau. It was so strong that I quickly got tipsy! The complimentary Salsa tasted as if only the freshest tomatoes were used, and the Chips had good crunch. For the entrée, I had the Grilled Bone-In 16 oz. Pork Chop with Roasted Fingerling Potatoes, Asparagus, Onions and Peppers, and Mango Salsa Chipotle Glaze. The onions were the tastiest part of the dish. TIP: BE SURE TO SMOTHER THE ONIONS AND GLAZE ALL OVER THE PORK BEFORE EATING! For dessert, I had the Dulce de Leche Creme Caramel Dessert Special. I did not like it because the peanuts sprinkled on top paired poorly with the Dulce de Leche; so I exchanged it for the Citrus Tres Leches, which was magnificent! The interior design of the restaurant was magnificent as well--with some shelves of Tequila bottles displayed at the entrance. The vibe is "upscale Mexican".

The ceviche was perfectly seasoned and balanced with that lovely punch of lime and again, the right amount of heat (for me). The space is lovely with beautiful pendant lighting. It's obvious that Pecado took a lot of care to create a beautiful space to gather and share great food and drinks. Oh, and the drinks are so pretty. The sangria was strong but in the best way. I recommend and would absolutely come back again.
