Al Gusto Restaurante — Restaurant in Town of Islip

Drunk on drugs man on the floor in the bar area !!!! Noticed this after I had ordered my food and sat my mom down. I asked for the manager, no such person on site. Asked the girl who is behind the bar in this photo, and clearly over-served this person, if they were going to remove this person or call the police. All I got were giggles and dumb looks? Too bad I had already ordered my food. Well they must have changed owners because the food was horrible. Had no taste ordered Roast Pork Rice and Beans and what I thought was a Pastel, (it was wrapped in Foil and a plantain leaf) because that’s what I asked for, which turned out to be a Chicken Tamal 🫔???? Unreal!!! 2 wildly different things. Came here from Freeport with my 87 year old mom for lunch. Been coming here for decades through quite a few name changes. Very very sad to see what a dump and drunkard hang out this has become!! Will never ever be back here again. Hopefully this truthful post will get the owners to make some much needed changes, including the Staff!! But I doubt it.

It is hard to find good Latin food, Excellent Service and this place did great. My niece had the Empanadas, which she also LOVED! couldn't stop talking about how...
