I've been going to Mesquite for a while now, even before new ownership. The food is always delicious and they have a wide variety of taco options that not many other Tex-Mex restaurants offer. The customer service is always 11/10 and they get the food out rather quickly for the amount we always order. We don't eat out much but when we do we typically come here
I visit my dad about twice a year and every time we make a trip here. The food is excellent and not typical which is what I enjoy.ingredients are fresh and cooked perfect plus a bit ingenious . Service is half sit down half self serve which I assume keeps costs down but it only has maybe chairs for 30 anyway. This is not a fancy place (it's in the old wading river post office)but it's decorated sort of random Mexican which fits the style.If you want tasty Mexican style food it's very enjoyable in a fairly loud environment this is your place. They also have full bar and my favorite homemade Mexican ice pops). Anyway I've been a executive chef for 22 yrs or so and own my own place in Tennessee so I'm up on food and restaurants if your wondering
Great food with consistent quality. The service is friendly and prompt. Good variety of tacos and other Tex-mex type items on the menu.
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.
Being one of those "anti-cilantro-people," I've avoided Mexican food forever. It's always hiding somewhere and easiest to just skip it altogether. So I was leary when my husband suggested it after attending a private party there - but he had me at "they used to be at La Plage." We went last week. Twice! And brought an out of town guest for lunch too! Your margaritas are fresh and fantastic and the food is absolutely amazing. Started simple with the mushroom quesadilla and have since had fish tacos as well as the Buffalo cauliflower. I cannot wait to come back. Yes, cilantro exists in places but it's easily avoided, the crew is accommodating and darn it I'm so glad you're here! We will be back for Mothers Day and probably before that too!
For a while I avoided coming here due to the attitude of the people that worked there, the owner included. However, I was excited to try it again when I found out it changed hands. Let me tell you that it is so much better now. The food is awesome and the staff is friendly. I will definitely be coming back again.
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.
