Island Grill

This isn’t my go-​to when I want an authentic burrito or guac or Mexican, this is the kind of plae you go to because it’s a guilty pleasure. My co-​workers and I often order a few varieties of nachos to share and have never been disappointed… it’s just what we need after a long, hard day. The cheese is like that of what you’d get in a ball park, but sometimes it’s all you want.

Ordered the chicken quesadilla and chicken fajita. Everything came out quick and was super fresh. I remembered to bring cash, who carries cash anymore? Everything was tasty, and fresh. Will be back again next time I will bring the kiddies.

Awesome take out Tex mex food. Fresh homemade from scratch tortillas. Food is very good!!!

I got terribly sick from eating here. A serious case of food poising! Eaters beware! Ive eaten here a bunch of times and never experienced this before. I think they served old meat.

Holy guacamole! This is my first, my last, my everything when it comes to delicious Mexican food. Me and my seniorita tried a few of the items at The Island Grill and it did not disappoint. The beef tacos were zesty and tasty while the soft shrimp tacos were not of this earth. Heaven must be missing a taco tonight, so yummy. Next up was the Steak Chimicanga to fire up an explosion of taste that will get your mouth to watering like no mañana. Well it’s official I have there number on speed dial now but the only number I can rate The Island Grill is número uno!!!’

Great food, quick service and cheap price. Always happy with my meal from here! Nice local place to go to for anyone in the babylon area. Takeout and delivery.

Got the regular hard shell tacos tonight. Plenty of meat. It’s just the meat has a kind of sweetness to it that I’m not a fan of. Not bad. It might appeal to someone else’s palate, just not mine.

Excellent food, slow service.
If you are in a hurry, do not go here.
I was left on hold for 2 minutes and wasn’t quoted a time to pick it up. My order took 50 minutes to make.
I Can only imagine if they accepted credit cards and could get a good system in place this place would be the «go-​to» spot for Mexican food

We order from here about once a month. The family loves their tacos, cheesy fries, chicken quesadilla and the chimichanga platter which is enough for two people they are huge. The combo platters are nice also with the right amount for the right price. We always try to order and pick up. Food can get soggy when ordering delivery if you get hard shells and fries. They do make their tortillas fresh. Arrrrrrriba!

This place is consistently delicious. The Mexican pizza and burritos are the bomb. Delivery is quick. We’ve been coming here for years and haven’t been disappointed yet.

Love this place. The food is awesome and their pretty quick! Not to mention, extremely affordable. Come here at least once a week and always a wonderful experience.

Great tasting food! We usually get the fajitas, and when requesting extra peppers and onions, they PILED them on and the lid barely fit! Great for a quick dinner!

Although I order quite frequently, I have a love-​hate relationship with Island Grill. The food is really great, considering it isn’t authentic. The prices have been going up pretty consistently & it can get a bit annoying when you have an outdated menu (pretty often). Delivery can take a long time, so be mindful when placing your order.
The chicken is kinda bland to me and can also be dry. The shrimp is pretty good (eh it’s shrimp), but I definitely recommend the steak, ground beef & chili. The portion sizes can vary, though. For instance I would consider their enchiladas as being a bigger portioned meal; however, their Mexican pizza is smaller than I anticipated. The nachos are excellent, but I would definitely recommend you only get them if you pick up your order, otherwise expect soggy nachos — GUARANTEED. The French fries are crisp and yummy & don’t get me started on their tacos. Asking for substitutions can sometimes be misunderstood, or at least in my experience. Lastly, make sure you’ve got cash because they don’t accept any cards.
All in all, for a full stomach along with your full wallet I would recommend Island Grill. They’ll be around for a while

Great food at a great price. I usually get the bourbon chicken enchilada which is great. Place does get busy and you my have to wait but its worth it.

Awesome little spot. Always have great food from here everything in the menu is great.

I’m a vegetarian, so I stick with tacos when ordering here. I always get black bean tacos (which contains the beans, lettuce, cheese and tomato cubes). Taste AMAZING. They make their own soft taco shell and it taste so good! I will say comparing to taco bell, the taco to me here taste better than a bean burrito there. Also, at taco bell anytime I ordered a bean burrito 7 out of 10 times they would accidentally mix meat in with it. Horrible! I’ve never had this problem at Island Grill! They are consistent and good. I’m sure these tacos are also slightly healthier than taco bell. The only thing I don’t really like is parking and waiting for my order. they are fast to make it, but I’m a very lazy person who wants to just go to a drive thru, which they don’t have. They do have a parking lot, but it’s small and I have to do a lot of backing up to exit. Also, the staff are always friendly.

Pretty good tacos and burritos that can’t be finished, but that’s about it. It’s very greasy and I don’t know what is going on with the chicken, it doesn’t taste like chicken where I come from. And what business in 2015 doesn’t take a debit card. Cash only businesses don’t last, it’s annoying and inconvenient. Get with the times or you’ll get left behind.

Love their quesadillas. Great place to order from if you don’t care about putting on insane amounts of calories. I usually get their chicken & jack cheese quesadillas and they’re pretty tiny so I get a chicken taco to go with. Fast delivery too!

Take out date: March 15, 2014
So I got really happy that I found a Mexican place to deliver in Babylon. Green cactus shut down (and they had stopped delivering before that), Swell Taco doesn’t deliver, and Del Feugo doesn’t deliver. I was pressed for time but really wanted Mexican on Saturday so I found this place, placed an order with them and went about my business until my food was delivered.
When the Chinese guy delivered my Mexican food, and I figured out that this was one of those Mexican food cooked by Chinese people sort of a deal (like this place my parent’s have in Baldwin) I figured the food might not be all that good.
The guac was pretty disgusting, it had a Mayo type of consistency. My suggestion don’t get the gauc here.
The Nachos were interesting. At first I thought they were good despite the fact that they used the same type of melted cheese that Taco Bell, 711, and the movie theatres use (sorry I like fresh cheese unless I’m at Taco Bell, 711, or the movie theatre). As I munched on more chips though a few of the nacho chips did seem stale to me.
My burrito was not wrapped the correct way. I had to keep it in the tinfoil to eat it. It was alright. Chock full of veggies that did seem pretty fresh, they did include rice in it, along with melted movie theatre nacho cheese.
I was starving so I wolfed down the food, it was edible or I wouldn’t have eaten it but it definitely wasn’t one of my favorite meals. I think I’ll stick to having to pick up my Mexican food or eat it in restaurant, unless some of Island Grill’s competition starts to deliver! *hint hint* swell taco!

First let me say I know plenty of people who love this place but I am NOT one of them. I rarely give bad reviews. While the only plus would be that it’s the only Mexican place that delivers in the area, you’re better off going through the Taco Bell drive through. Their nachos are terrible, processed cheese sauce used instead of melted cheese. Their guacamole is the worst I’ve ever had. Quesadillas were just terrible as well. I’ve given this place twice to give it a fair shot and have been sorely disappointed each time. Yuck!!!
