Inside Dining
Demishia O.

I was a bit indecisive about what to order, but the staff was super helpful in guiding me. I ended up getting the shrimp tacos with red cabbage to go, which come in an order of three. They are a bit on the pricey side for tacos, but honestly, they were worth every penny! They were so delicious that I devoured them before I even thought to take a picture. I'll definitely be back--this might just become one of my new go-to spots!

2 Fire Island Taco's and 1 Hicksville Taco.
Jim B.

A very flavorful meal. Establishment needs work. Food: 5/5 - Some interesting flavors. I ordered the Fire Island Tacos (which was VERY tasty) and the Hicksville Taco was good as well. The ingredients seemed fresh. The food was served in a hard shell wrapped in a soft shell. This is a nice idea. It keeps it from falling apart. Service: 3/5 - There was only 1 person working in the place. She was the cook and order taker. Food was packaged well in the to-go containers. I was the only one ordering lunch and it took about 8 minutes from start to finish. Atmosphere: 2/5 - The establishment needs improvement. The huge chalkboard that you order from is unorganized. It's hard to figure out what you can get and the prices. There is a to-go flyer at the register that's more organized. The soda machine was partially broken. Seems rundown. No theme or elements of interest. Some seating for 2. Lighting is basic. Cleanliness: 2/5 - When you walk in, it smells a bit musty. The eating area failed some rudimentary dust checks. The back of the house seemed clean but not spotless. The cook was wearing a hat, but no gloves. Parking: 3/5 - Shared lot outside. Not very big and can get filled up quickly. Restrooms: N/A - didn't visit. Value: 3/5- 3 tacos we ordered came to about $15.48. Kinda steep. But the flavor was above average. The portion size filled me up. Overall: 4/5 - The food was the star of the show. It's what will make me come back. Advice to management: You need to spend about $5000 to get a modern wallboard for ordering and for a deep clean, get some decor to liven the place up.

Amazing!!! Can't believe I didn't try sooner. I think we found a new go-to taco spot! I had the taco trio with the Hicksville taco which was steak, shrimp scallions, chipotle aioli and bbq OMG run and try it!! I also got the fire Island taco which was shrimp, cabbage, lettuce with salsa and lime also delishhh and the last one I got was a special with steak and was also yummy. We also got nachos which were very good. Very inexpensive and so good. Can't wait to go back!

Side of guacamole with chips, small but good
Patty P.

decided to give this place a try, always pass by it but never have. checked it out online, had good reviews Order online, food was ready within time frame they said The portions were big, I still can't get up I'm so full ! I shared grilled shrimp burrito, so good, packed with Ingredients & flavor ! Also shared roasted chicken added vegetables (onions/ peppers!) & they were charred to perfection! I also added enchilada style (sauce/ cheese) to the chicken & wow, it was exactly what I wanted! had a very small portion/ side of guacamole which I thought was too tiny but it was good. Their chips were good good too! Side of rice/ beans had good flavor too! (Kids approved!) Definitely would come back !!

Shrimp fajitas
Erin H.

Consistently awesome! Shout out to the staff for being friendly and helpful every time. My son and I love this local spot. Fajitas, Guac, tacos, platters-we've tried a bunch and all delicious! We are regulars now and are happy to have a close place to grab great food with good service too! : )

Tacos

This was the 3rd year in a row we have catered from Texaquito. Work with me to create an appropriate catering menu for my parties and have fair prices. The food is always delicious. Chips, salsa, guac, jalapeño poppers, empanadas, taco bar with hard and soft shell options, roasted chicken, beef, fajita veggies, churros, and all the fixings plus many options of sauces. Also, needed some options dairy free and they accommodated with no issues. Have also done regular take out - burrito, quesadilla. All excellent!

Burrito, view 1: this is a big one, folks . . .
Chris C.

In going through my Yelp folder, I see that I visited Texas Taco again over two months after my first review. Tale of the continuing tape: Burrito This is one huge burrito, filled with tasty goodness like you wouldn't believe. See my pictures for all the proof you need . . . Skirt Steak and Brisket Mexican Soft Tacos Continuing their taco excellence, these two are a great complement to Texas Taco's repertoire. See my other picture for all you need to know . . .

It's in the middle of kinda nowhere (but nearby Tanger Deer Park), parked alongside in a auto body…read moreshop parking lot. But - it is also quite possibly one of the best tacos we've had in the area - ever. Tip! The food is made fresh to order so it takes time! Call ahead or be patient as it can take atleast 15 minutes if not more. But it is worth it! The staff are friendly, courteous and they are busy at work in their little truck. Prices are reasonable though not dirt cheap. Tacos are all great - very classic, authentic. Carne Asado, Lingua, Shrimp etc. But the real standouts are their Empanadas and Birria Tacos! Oh let me TELL you! Birria - 3 tacos with Birria dipping consommé $12 and I could totally eat 6 of these haha. So authentically made and delicious! Empanadas - They were sold out on Beef but the Chicken and Cheese - wow. The best I've ever had! I usually never buy Chicken because it's dry and blah but wow - these were so (so!) good! Piping hot, crispy pocket, delicious filling. I can only imagine that the Beef would be even better. Cannot wait to get back and try a bunch of other things. We really enjoyed everything!

Finally made it back to Cochinita Porky, and I am THRILLED to report than my one prior bad…read moreexperience a couple years ago was an anomaly. I ordered my old fave, the al pastor taco, and this time the meat was perfect and it reminded my of why its my favorite taco on LI. I also gave their birria taco a try and it was delicious.

Rincon Guanaco Restaurant - Pupusa de queso con loroco.  No flavor on the tomato sauce or the curtido.

Favorite place to get some good pupusas! The service is always consistent. The ladies who work here…read moreare pleasant and nice. I would suggest the pupusas with pork and cheese and bean and cheese. Be sure to call ahead as sometimes it can be a 15-30 minute wait because they're prepared fresh. I also recommend trying it with the green sauce that they make themselves. Every time I visit I wish I try something else because the food looks and smells good but I'm usually running in quickly to grab pupusas. Hopefully I can venture out into other menu options

I recommend the service, very quick, fast and friendly. We…read moredecided to order pupusas de queso con loroco, queso & chicharron, yuca frita con chicharrones y tamales de elote. Sadly i will say that the curtido and salsa de tomate which is the most important side dish of the pupusas, were both tasteless, no salt. The curtido had no carrots or onions, no oregano, plus to make curtido. The cabagge has to be prepared well ahead of time so that it actually absorbs the vinegar, salt and oregano flavor. The watery tomato sauce, zero taste. My wife did not like the cheese and loroco pupusas, they had no color coming from the flat grill, cheese was ok, the dough in the pupusas was slightly thicker than what i like. But they definitely needed more color. The chicken tamal had some chick peas but no potato and a little piece of chicken but the masa had a lot of taste. The yuca chunks were fried too much but the pork was tasty, crispy and tender. They offered us a green sauce, which was just ok. All the food lacked flavor, having just visited my family in San Salvador, i knew it was not going to be a great experience but i had high hopes. Tamal de elote while it was a home made product, the corn was not sweet and when they presented it on the plate, it was already unwrapped. So i doubt they wrap them inside the corn husks, which may be the reason why it was crumbling on the plate. Dod not have bad taste but it was not great and the crema was very thick. I couldn't get the savory experience that tamles con crema usually deliver.
