User Reviews

The 2 young men working shift tonight were class act gentlemen. My food was ready in 5 minutes and honestly haven’t had better customer service than that in a while even though I was actually only in there for 2 minutes max. The food is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS too I’m writing this while I’m eating lol. It was my first time ordering from here but DEFINITELY RETURNING!!!

This is well deserved. I drove past this place many times without notice and finally stopped by. I can go on, I'll try to keep it brief. Walked in to an extremely clean, well organized place. The friendliest staff you'll come across. I almost ordered Tacos until I realized last second they had bowls. First order Rice with cilantro, seriously? Yes please . Pinto beans , corn and cilantro , freshly diced tomatoes , mozzarella cheese, guacamole with red onions. Every single ingredient fresh as if diced right in front of me. Superb steak, A homemade Habanero sauce that staples authenticity, followed with a Green tomatoe sauce that holds the same high standards. Exceeded portions served. This place makes Chipotle look like a 3rd hand fastfood restaurant. This Earned a solid 5 stars in ratings and can easily surpass. See you guys soon.

Rating 3 stars because the tacos were so spicy that I wasn’t able to eat them, the corn was good but their was no cotija cheese or anything on it but a spicy ranch sauce? The shrimp empanada had 3 small shrimps in it and a huge air bubble, I would probably go back a second time just to try it again but I wouldn’t say it was the best Mexican food… I hate leaving a not the best / subpar review but it’s my honest opinion. This review is based off the East Rockaway location.

I got a chicken bowl and it was truly disgusting. It was covered in avocado and black beans and the steak was raw. Will never order from this place again. Didn’t even have sour cream.

If anyone is looking for Mexican takeout in the Lynbrook/ East Rockaway area, I highly recommend Habanero Mexican Grill on Atlantic Ave. We got their bowls, nachos, and epanadas. The bowls are similar to chipotle but had some extra flavor. Nachos were delicious. I already want to order epanadas again just to have in my stockpile... so good. Delivery was fast (under 30 mins) and simple. Will 100% order from again.

"Great, neighborhood place. Know how to order if you're ordering to go, ask for guac or sour cream on the side or this or that. I'm sure any negative reviews were from an online takeout service, However, the actual food is great and well seasoned, staff is super friendly. One of my go to lunch spots. I usually go in personally and order a couple of tacos and they walk you through the line and you make it how you want it. Great spot for tacos, burritos or quesadillas." I have to change my original review and I'm not happy about it. As one of my go to lunch spots, I placed an order for lunch, I knew I was getting delivery and the tacos don't travel too well so I got a steak bowl with a tortilla on the side. Someone called to tell me they didn't have any red sauce so I said the green hot sauce would be fine, they didn't have any hot sauce in the entire place....? I asked for sour cream on the side, there was no sour cream. What arrived was a poorly packed tin of wet rice, lettuce, tomatoes (supposed to be pico & it was not pico was it straight tomatoes) and boiled steak. The steak had to have been boiled, nothing had flavor or salt, no cilantro or onion anywhere. It was the most disappointing meal I've have in a long time. I didn't really eat it. Don't think I'll be returning.

Horrible Service. I ordered my food and paid for it, kid behind the counter says "do you want your .62 cents change back"? I thought to myself why would I not want my change back so I said yes, he then grabbed a jar that reads TIPS and started to shake it, he then says, oh forget it, I don't have change so keep the dollar giving me .38 cents more. He was so rude, he then turns up the music where you felt you were in the "ghetto" I expressed how the music was so loud and not "appropriate " he did not care! I asked to take my food to go and walked out, ate it in my car. What Horrible service and desperate need for a tip. Rude and unpleasant and will never go back there again. His father should only know just how disrespectful and unpleasant that kid really is. You are in the wrong town! It will not be long before you get shut down. Sad, very sad!

Very fresh and delicious. Employees are friendly and nice.
