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.

Beef Empanadas, Loco Nachos

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.

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.

I rarely give a five star review but the service today was outstanding. First time trying this…read moreplace so I tried the shrimp and carne asada Mexican street tacos and both were delicious overflowing with shrimp and steak. The steak was tender too. Hubby had the avocado and fish taco and he thoroughly enjoyed it. We also shared a taco de birria barbecoa and the pulled beef was so tender melt in your mouth. The tamarind drink was very refreshing and would order it again. The churros came toasty and warm. There are only a few tables inside but there are also cute colorful tables outside as well. Will definitely be back.

Since then, they have been one of the most amazing spots ever. Great food, a variety of options, so many specials and amazing service. Every person that works at all these locations has always been friendly. I haven't dined in at the new one yet but from what I see they have a full bar and the ambience looks great. Their steak is always perfectly cooked, medium rare, juicy most and packed with flavor. All of their meat options are absolutely delicious. They are limited on the sauces they provide but I am so happy they are consistent throughout. I've had their burritos, their wings, their enchiladas their chicken you name it. You will always see me here as this will remain one of my consistent places to dine in or for take out.

We called ahead to order a 'Build Your Own' burrito with shrimp, lettuce, refried beans, and…read morecheese. I specifically told the person on the phone 'no rice' when asked. However, when I picked up my order and got home, I found a burrito with absolutely no beans and a lot of rice! I am very disappointed that my simple instructions weren't followed. Llamamos con anticipación para pedir un burrito a nuestro gusto con camarones, lechuga, frijoles refritos y queso. Cuando me preguntaron por teléfono, dije específicamente 'sin arroz'. Sin embargo, cuando recogí mi pedido y llegué a casa, ¡encontré un burrito que no tenía frijoles y tenía mucho arroz! Estoy muy decepcionada de que no siguieran mis instrucciones.
