  Island Grill is probably the most unassuming hidden gem that you'll find in West Babylon. When you walk in, the place looks like every Long Island Chinese takeout place. The difference? They're slinging tacos and burritos instead.
  
  Now, I'm not trying to position this place against the Verdes or Swell Tacos of the world. The food is cheap. The food is fast. They even deliver. But for all its conveniences, the food is great.
  
  Big pluses in my book- They make their tortillas fresh nonstop. You watch them freshly grilling all of their meats right in front of you. The portions are great for the price. And the staff is always friendly whenever I come in. Can't ask for more than that.

  Yea, not quite sure where to put this place.  It's a Mexican restaurant run by Chinese in an American Chinese take-out sort of fashion.  It's cheap and, when my coworkers suggested we order from here, I did not know what to expect.
  
  I got the bourbon chicken over rice, which was under $4 delivered to me.  It wasn't great.  The bourbon chicken just tasted salty with no real discernible flavor.  The rice underneath it was soggy and also quite salty.  The rice was like the kind of rice that is made from a box or purchased frozen and just reheated.
  
  The guacamole was a weird concoction of guac, salsa, and sour cream resulting in a sort of liquidy sauce that tasted nothing of guacamole.  It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't good.  I used some of it to give the bourbon chicken some flavor.
  
  Would I come back here?  No.  But I guess if you're in the mood for Asianized Americalized Mexican food delivered to your door for less than the cost of a frozen Hungry Man dinner, Island Grill is for you.

  It's small and looks like a Chinese takeout place from the outside and even entering. However, like many things and places appearances can fool you!
  
  The food is inexpensive for the quality you get. They use real meat, fresh tomatoes, lettuce and other toppings you may choose. The portions are generous with salsa, guacamole and sour cream usually on the side.
  
  My favorite are the burritos! They are almost two meals for me. Filled with rice and beans and the meat you choose. The beef tacos are also very good. They also have steak tacos with tender steak and a decent size.
  
  I like them because it's quick and simple with good quality. I was never let down for my night snack or taco tuesdays!!!
  
  It's definitely a takeout or delivery location. They don't have much ambiance but it's the food that counts! Skip the "bell" and go to the island!

  Please have someone who understands and speaks English please !!!. Taking a delivery order is such a headache and most of the time they send the wrong items.
  Food is good but the service is just terrible. I asked multiple times to speak to someone who understood English, waited for a few minutes just to get the same person.
  Easy improvement that will benefit the restaurant a lot.
