To begin my quest to find the best Mexican, I stopped off at a place called Zim Zari California Coastal Grill located in Massapequa Park, New York. This surf shack style restaurant offers good food at a cheap price.  The most expensive item on the menu came in only at 13.95, the fajitas. I ordered the Volcano Shrimp Tacos that only cost me $6.95. These 2 flour tortilla tacos were served with fried shrimp, tomatoes, avocado and topped off with a chipotle mayonnaise sauce that really gave it a kick. These mouth watering tacos were served with pinto beans and rice and a lime for seasoning. The service was excellent. Young, vibrant, and lively employees that catered to my every need and served with outright enthusiasm. The environment is also amazing, a California surf themed decor that really makes you feel like you are sitting in Huntington Beach. This establishment looked to be children friendly equipped with a separate kids menu that included items such as steak and chicken quesadillas. Zim Zari is a spot fun for the entire family. In addition, for the over 21 crowd,  the drink menu was stocked with exotic margaritas such as the "Maui Wowie", a traditional margarita topped with pineapple juice and Red Bull for a pump-up, and a Mixed Berry Margarita made with fresh mixed berries.  "It's a fun place with a great atmosphere and we can cater to people of all ages which is what makes our establishment stand out." said Robert Dearing, Assistant Manager of Zim Zari California Coastal Grill.  Zim Zari currently only has one location listed in New York.

Bienvedido! Introducory Blog...

This blog was created in order to inform fellow Long Islanders on where to get the best Mexican food. In this blog each week there will be a review of Mexican restaurants throughout the Long Island area with feedback on the food itself, service, price range, hours, alcohol (if it is served or not), payment options, children friendly, reservations, attire, noise level along with any other useful information to give you the best review possible. Mexican food is often underestimated and not not often publicized. I hope you the reader find this blog useful when that craving for burritos and tacos kicks in and look to find the best that suites you. Adios!
