If you live anywhere near Plainview, or where their other spot is, and you haven't at least tried their food - it's time. I've tried this style of food before, I call it Meximerican, maybe that's already a name for it. They do have straight Mexican food on the menu, but when I saw the Carne Panini, I wasn't looking anywhere else. My woman got the Birria Quesadilla - with intention to swap and share. We also got the churro nachos (brilliant), with blueberry compote. I ended up swapping the spicy salsa for BBQ sauce, as a personal preference thing. Amazing - simply. It was EXACTLY what I was hoping for, looked EXACTLY how it was pictured. The only let down was that there was no Birria sauce with the quesadillas, which was a pretty big part to miss. The churro nachos were like something I'd expect to get from a pastry shop/bakery, or a high end breakfast spot maybe, creative and delicious. In all, it was a bit expensive, but what isn't at this point - I've spent more at places that served less (quality and quantity).
TLDR: Amazing little food spot, a little expensive, but WAY worth it - try the churro nachos - remind them to include the side sauces. Definitely a worthwhile spot to order from. Photos: Carne Panini (perfect) Churro Nachos (picture doesn't do the...
Read moreIt was a Friday night in early February, and it was approximately 28 degrees outside as I made my way into Curbside Mexican Grill in Plainview, NY. I was instantly amazed at how unique the atmosphere was there. When I approached the counter as it was time to order, my excitement grew as I saw a ton of great options to choose from. I ended up going with the BYO Bowl with yellow rice, black beans, sautéed shrimp, steak, tomato, peppers, onions, corn, pico de gallo, mozzarella cheese, and salsa verde.
When I received my BYO Bowl order, I was amazed at how incredible it looked, and it ended up being one of the best meals that I have ever had. The pricing is also excellent at Curbside Mexican Grill, which is another reason as to why this restaurant is awesome. Furthermore, I talked to the owner of the restaurant, Brandon, who was very enthusiastic about the restaurant, and he was very knowledgeable as well. In addition, Brandon was very friendly and helpful when I spoke to him, which I really appreciated.
I will definitely be going back to Curbside Mexican Grill in Plainview, NY. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for excellent Mexican food at not only a great price, but also with a great atmosphere. Thank you once...
Read moreFirst impression is definitely the one that lasts! I was yesterday at an event in plainview and was looking for something to eat nearby and when I saw the curbside mexican grill menu I was extremely excited to try it. What a disappointment! I ordered 1 Hawaiian tacos “shredded pork” instead they send pieces of pork as you can see in the photo. I just tasted the bacon and slightly pineapple flavor. These tacos come with guacamole and I ordered 2 extra servings because I really love guacamole and it was even more disappointing. It's not guacamole! Just a green cream with salt and onion without any pieces of tomato that seemed to have been stored in the fridge for a while. My husband ordered a burgerito burrito and according to him it was ok. But I don't intend to go back and I don't recommend it either. It had no seasoning or love whatsoever. I made an order to pick up so when I arrived the order was ready.I was well attended and the environment was...
