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.

Ate here for the first time. The food was pretty good. I ordered a mix of tacos. My least favorite…read morewas the carne asado and the best one was the chicken. The shrimp one was "meh". 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 decor inside is incredible but we decided to sit outside since the weather was great. The service was pretty fast, and I really enjoyed most of the dishes. The only thing that was okay was the guacamole -- it just wasn't really seasoned that well, but the complimentary salsa was delicious. I ordered the camarones en salsa verde which was very tasty (especially the salsa). It came with a side of beans, but those weren't that good. For dessert, I got the chocolate soufflé which came with ice cream, and that was a great end to our meal. All in all, I would come back and I enjoyed my meal!

My friend and her boyfriend have visited multiple locations and recommended visiting Dirty Taco and Tequila - Woodbury for our double date so we came on a Tuesday night at 6:30pm. Dirty Taco and Tequila is located in Woodbury Common Shopping Center. There are plenty of other businesses and parking spaces. Many tables at Dirty Taco and Tequila were occupied and it was pretty busy when we came in, but we were seated after waiting just a little while. Dirty Taco and Tequila only takes reservations for large groups. Dan Z was our server and he was amazing. He was very attentive, happy, and friendly. He asked if it was our first time at Dirty Taco and Tequila and gave us a brief introduction to the menu and his recommendations. I had the Asian Pear cocktail and it was very yummy. The Asian Pear cocktail has Grey Goose vodka, pear nectar, st. germaine, lime juice, and agave. My friends had pineapple margarita, coconut margarita, and strawberry kiwi margarita. For margaritas, you can add salt or sugar on the rim. We ordered Guac & Chips for the table. The guacamole, tomatoes, cilantro, lime, and red onion were very good and great to share. I ordered the Bulgogi Taco and the Bang Bang Shrimp Taco. My favorite was the Bang Bang Shrimp Taco. It had pan fried shrimp, cabbage slaw, tossed in bang bang sauce, sriracha drizzle served on flour tortilla. This taco was packed with flavor and really good. The bulgogi taco didn't have bulgogi, they were steak strips. My husband had the Pork Belly Taco and Korean Short Rib Taco. He really enjoyed it. Our group of 4 stayed for about 2 hours at Dirty Taco and Tequila. They didn't rush us out at all. It's really chill and relaxing atmosphere. I also really like the decor. There is a cash discount if you pay with cash compared to credit card. Definitely looking forward to coming back to Dirty Taco and Tequila!

Our waitress was visibly annoyed when I asked questions regarding the menu. It took 20 minutes to have my drink come out when the rest of the table had theirs. That being said, the drink was disgusting. I ordered a guava margarita which the waitress said was their seasonal flavor. It tasted like sweet juice and no alcohol. Since the waitress was nowhere to be found after she quickly brought anything to the table and ran away, I got up to Go to the bartender to ask for a regular margarita with no flavor. Not only did the bartender EMBARRASS me in front of the bar customers, she was completely rude and dismissive. She said there was no way my margarita was too sweet because everything was measured. I said OK but I don't like it, can I have one with no flavor? And she proceeded to ask me "what's too sweet about it? Why is it too sweet?" Literally putting me on the spot in front of other customers. I was appalled. I said I don't like the juice can I just have another one with no flavor then? She walked away and I didn't see the margarita for another 15 minutes until our food was out. We had kids with us and 2 kids meals came out and my daughters didn't come out for another 15 minutes after the other children. She was complaining how hungry she was and as usual, our waitress was nowhere to be seen. This is not the way to run an establishment. Especially after spending close to $300 for 3 adults and 3 children. The gratuity was even added in because their staff is so terrible they have to guarantee their tip it seems. I wish there was a manager on site so I could've complained or at least had the gratuity taken off, but they were nowhere to be seen. There was no hostess on site, and completely understaffed. It was such a let down experience especially since the food is great.

It was a lot of guacamole and $30!! Also, I ordered celery and carrots to go with it instead of the chips and they all had black dots in them. They were not fresh. I had the Salmon Manchamanteles, they were able to make it gluten free, which was great. It was moist and very good. My husband has the Skillet res a la plancha tacos. He really liked them. Honestly, they seemed more like fajitas to me. Although we did enjoy our meal, I do not think we will be running back.

For appetizer, we ordered the guacamole which they make table side but it was lacking flavor. For entree, I ordered the Dos Carnes which had the slow roasted baby back ribs and skirt steak with corn puree. The ribs were nicely cooked and the meat just falls off the bone but it was smothered with a chili lime sauce that made it a bit too salty. The skirt steak was cooked to the right temperature but needed more flavor. For dessert, I had the tres leches and it was overly sweet. Sadly, I did not finish the dessert.

When the food arrived at my table, it wasn't even hot. I thought it was in the twilight zone waiting for someone to teleport me back to earth it was so bad. It's laughable that you can mess up something so simple as a burrito and taco, then the rudeness for no reason. Like I said this has to be a drug front because it makes absolutely no sense
