We're serving up all kinds of tasty Tex-Mex dishes to our Deer Park community here at Texas Taco. We're talkin' burritos, nachos, empanadas, and that's just the start. Don't forget about our Specialty Trio Tacos, which come with options from braised brisket to lime shrimp. Each bite will be filled with flavors that will make you forget you're in New York and not Texas. There's a reason people say this is Tex-Mex at its best -- come experience it for yourself!

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.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Aug 23, 2015Previous reviewA different meal with good flavor. Establishment needs some polish.
Food: 7/10 - Some interesting flavors. We ordered the Fire Island Tacos (which was tasty) and the Cowboy Tacos (which was kinda boring.) The Cowboy tacos were a bit messy and stuck to the pan. The ingredients seemed fresh.
Service: 3/10 - There was only 1 person working in the place. He was the cook and order taker. He looked worn out. Food was packaged well in the to-go containers.
Cleanliness: 4/10 - The establishment is somewhat new so you would think there would be no problems. The back of the house seemed pretty clean however the floors in the dining area were very sticky when you walked on them. Not sure what was happening there but it didn't leave a good impression. The cook was wearing a hat, however when handling money he didn't take off the latex gloves he was wearing.
Decor: 4/10 - Basic room. Nothing stands out -- no theme or elements of interest. Some seating for 2. No menu boards. I had to pick up a paper menu that looked like it was for take out.
Parking: 8/10 - Good shared lot outside.
Restrooms: N/A - didn't visit.
Value: 4/10 - The two sets of 3 tacos we ordered came to about $19. Kinda steep. When comparing the food and experience to the price tag the value isn't that good.
Overall: 6/10 - For the price there wasn't anything to rave about here. All things considered I put it slightly above taco bell - but at a steeper price.
Advice to management: Make sure the floors are mopped properly, get some decor and menu boards to liven the place up. - Apr 3, 2023
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!

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! : )

Erin, happy belated Mother's Day! Your son did right by thinking tacos, and we're so grateful you stopped in. Anytime you're in the area, we'd love to serve you our fresh guacamole and all of your other favorites. Looking forward to seeing you both.
Sincerely,

5 stars isn't enough. I love this place. I love the staff. The food is always amazing. I order here at least once a week. Unstoppable burritos, nachos, salsa, tacos. I've literally never been disappointed. This is one of, if not THE best burrito spot on Long Island.

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 !!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0Business owner information

I have to say I used to love ordering from here. As of lately the people working there seem to be shadey. The short lady has an attitude i cant stand her. She kept looking at me as if owed her something. The food was not that good as before. I gave another shot and ordered online. The order was not delivered and they refused to refund me my money. It took Jesus from me going there and knocking some heads. The jerk said sorry man and hung up. I went to my bank and ensured I got my money back. I stopped ordering from here since. My sister without knowing what happened decided to order for the family some dishes. It was wrong. They did not followed the way it was requested The food was so blan that I thought I was in the hospital eating food with no seasoning. The order was wrong and disappointing. I am over them.
