Gotta love 2'fers on Marg's! And ohhhh man those RIBS were amazing on every level!

We love coming to Besito with friends, especially before heading to a show at The Paramount—it’s become our little tradition. The Shrimp Jalisco is my go-to and never disappoints. It’s as beautiful as it is delicious—perfectly seared jumbo shrimp on creamy mashed boniato, with a smoky tequila chipotle glaze and fresh spring pico that ties it all together. The flavors are layered and rich, and the texture is incredibly smooth. Every bite feels like something special. And just when you think the night can’t get better, they bring out a tiny worry doll with your check—a sweet, thoughtful gesture that makes the whole experience feel personal and memorable.

Great environment and food! The manager Jose and the staff are great and really friendly! Try the carne asada tacos and the patron margaritas. The guac is usually made next to your table, which is a nice addition.

Absolutely devine and delicious. Food was fresh,service was excellent. Hope to return!

Amazing amazing margaritas. So lucky to have stumbled upon this restaurant. Best drinks I’ve ever had. Thanks Besito!!!

The food was absolutely delicious and drinks were deliciously beautiful!!! Great atmosphere and service is top notch!!! Great place for a night out!!!

This review is long overdue, but Besito is a Huntington favorite! Been going for years, so when I walk through the door, I feel like family as I am always warmly greeted. I used to go with friends and sit at the bar (shoutout to Antonio's margarita suggestions :) ). But now with kids in tow, they are beyond accommodating to help navigate my stroller to a table. Fresh guacamole is a must and if its not the hot cheesy skillet mixtos with chorizo, steak, and chicken, the halibut veracruzana is the best fish dish around. Tres leches for dessert unless they have the choco flan special. Great food, even better service. Make it your next experience out!

Besito has become a favorite restaurant over the past year or so. We've been to Huntington, Roslyn, and Babylon, several times. The food is consistently good. They are a little pricey, but again, it's consistently good, so that's worth it to me. Everything we've had from skirt steaks and ribs to quesadillas and quac, have all been very, very good. The deserts are also worth catching, good stuff all around. Reservations are strongly recommended. Enjoy it! -Gio

1st time here! My server was Ricardo he was super nice. The restaurant itself was clean & I loved the way it was decorated. The food was delicious from the guacamole to my main dish. The skirt steak was like butter, the back beans & rice were delicious . I highly recommend this restaurant

Love the outdoor seating, food and service. The white sangria is a perfect 10, and a great value. The service was professional, polite and quick, we were never left needing anything. Guacamole was perfect with mild spice, not too chunky and a good portion for 3 to share. Our entrees were quite good too. I had always heard Besito was expensive, but for our party of three it was pretty reasonable especially for it being Huntington Village. Great experience overall.

My family and I love this restaurant beyond words. The staff is super friendly and incredibly hard working. Last night we visited and had one of the best meals we’ve ever had. We were greeted with a smile by the manager Jose. It was very mild weather and requested to be seated outdoors even though all of the outdoor furniture had been put away for the winter. He made an exception for us and within minutes had a crew setting up a special table for us in front. It’s very rare that managers go out of their way to this extent. We were waited on by amazing waiters that brought us our food immediately. We enjoyed the pineapple margaritas (phenomenal) and I got my usual which was sweet potato tacos. My husband loves the steak from there as well. I also really appreciated that they bring the kids a plate of sliced bananas and avocado while they wait for their order. Such a special touch. So much love. Thank you SO much Jose and the rest of the staff that went above and beyond to make my family feel special. We can’t wait to see you again.

Amazing Mexican food with rich flavors and fresh ingredients! The waitress was so attentive, checking in several times to make sure we had everything we needed. Truly great service and a delicious experience!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As a total foodie, I can honestly say Besito in Huntington delivered one of the best dining experiences of my life. From start to finish, everything about this place was top-notch—the food, the drinks, and especially the service exceeded all expectations. Let’s start with the drinks: these were hands-down the best margaritas I’ve ever had. The Piña Picante margarita and Sandia watermelon margarita were absolute perfection—fresh, balanced, and bursting with flavor. We also did a tequila flight, and our server Marlon made the entire experience unforgettable. His knowledge of tequila was unmatched—he guided us through the flight with such passion and expertise, selecting 7 Leguas, Avión, and Casa Dragones. It ended up being some of the finest tequila I’ve ever tasted, and it was clear we were in the hands of someone who truly cares about delivering a memorable experience. The food was just as outstanding. We began with their warm, crispy chips and phenomenal salsa and guacamole, followed by the chicken tortilla soup, which was hearty and flavorful. For entrées, the Arrachera grilled skirt steak was cooked to absolute perfection—tender, juicy, and beautifully paired with arugula, roasted corn, queso fresco, and pomegranate vinaigrette. We also tried the Sonora ribs, glazed with agave, chipotle, and lime. The meat literally fell off the bone and was bursting with smoky, tangy flavor. And just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, dessert arrived. The Tres Leche cake was out of this world—the best we’ve ever had. It was incredibly fresh, moist, and absolutely delicious, the perfect sweet ending to an unforgettable meal. On top of the incredible food and drinks, what truly set this night apart was the service. Marlon went above and beyond with his warmth, professionalism, and deep knowledge—he didn’t just serve us, he guided us through a culinary and cocktail journey that made the night unforgettable. And manager Moises was equally exceptional—he greeted us right away, checked in multiple times throughout the night, and made sure every detail of our experience was flawless. Their attentiveness and genuine hospitality are what elevated an already amazing dinner into something truly special. The newly renovated space adds to the atmosphere, making it an ideal spot for a date night or special occasion. Besito isn’t just good—it’s easily in my top three restaurants of all time. If you love Spanish food, great drinks, and impeccable service, this is a must-visit.

Service started out slow but food was absolutely amazing!. From the salsa to the original flavors/sauces was so savory and delicious. Drinks also spot on! Will definitely be back

Our favorite restaurant for special occasions. It was excellent again. Food great, fairly priced. Staff is friendly.

Food and drinks are incredible, as well as the atmosphere. The Mexican corn is still phenomenal, and I would also highly recommend the queso fundido. My filete de res was cooked to perfection. Can’t wait to go back.

Great drinks, good food, very friendly and courteous staff. Loved the home made guacamole can't miss that one. We sat at the bar, the bartender was the best!!! Thanks for a great time and service.

First time here for a quick snack while still working so no sangria for me, but the fish tacos were great! Excellent, attentive service and even a dessert snack to go !! Next time I'll stop in AFTER work.

Love the food here, however on the pricier side. Hands down best homemade guacamole!! The Chicken Enchilada Quesie was amazing; I finished every bite which rarely happens. It's very busy and popular so I suggest making reservations on weekends. Smaller inside then it appears but beautifully decorated, a great place for the summer months especially.

Love this place, the service is always amazing and the food is even better. We got the fresh guac, queso and split a skillet for the two of us which was more than enough x They also had a special on Sunday for 2 for 1 margaritas.

My first time going to this place and I definitely will be back, my experience was great from the service to the food. All my respects to the chef

Always has the best guacamole, great atmosphere. The margaritas are amazing and the food is just divine. I really love going to this place.

The Besito team wins on many fronts: 1. They handled our large party reservations with grace. No request for large deposit, no pretentiousness, and great follow up leading to the date. 2. Soo accommodating: We had a party of 20+ (including babies/kids). The Besito team had seating already figured out by the time we entered, they had small nibbles made available for the little ones, and they had a small team of amazing servers/waiters support us as we made orders (Controlled chaos). 3. Food was delicious. drinks were great. The service was the hands down highlight. We'll DEFINITELY be back!

Day of the Dead Celebration. Started with Special Blood Orange Margarita. Dinner was Mixed Grilled Tacos on flat iron pan. Really delicious. Great service. Nice roomy booth. Very enjoyable evening. Will be back for sure.

Meal and service was good, but portions are small in my opinion. In addition, my friend did not like the taco dish very much; specifically the flour tortillas. The enchiladas were satisfactory, no complaints. Atmosphere is adequate.

Oh man, the food was so good, better than I could have ever expected. I got the shrimp empanadas and they were so so good. They also give you free chips and salsa and it was the best salsa I've ever had. It was cilantro heavy, my favorite

Food is amazing. Staff is so friendly. Best restaurant in Huntington!

The food is delicious, the service excellent, and the Sonora ribs are an absolute must try. It never disappoints!

Vegetarian options, enchilada can be made veggie and there are tacos and quesadillas! Awesome food!

Had the best time here, I took a friend there for the first time. The food was great as always. The drinks were fabulous and well made. The most outstanding part of dinner was our waiter. His name is Josue. He was so attentive. Knew the menu well, offered great recommendations. Jus a genuine guy. He was very patient with our indecision. Ask for him when you go there.

So glad we stopped in for lunch. Staff was great. Food was cooked perfectly and was delicious. All six of us loved what we ate. Drinks were great too! I can’t compliment this place enough.

What a wonderful, wonderful experience! Deserves the repeated adjective. We came in unannounced - and were informed we had an hour to vacate the table, so reservations are strongly recommended. Since we were on a timer, jumped straight into main courses. The Carne Asada Quesadilla, Mixtos Iron Skillet Tacos, Pescado Veracruzana, and Sonora Ribs were each so absolutely awesome that they had each of us saying our dish was the best. Based on our random selections and the delight they brought, I’d say there are no bad choices on the menu. We had a few margaritas to wash it down - they were on pointe, crisp, not watered down. Definitely on our short list for the next time we crave Mexican!

Will Return!! It was a pleasure to dine at Besito post Pandemic! Their Margaritas were delicious! I liked the original with Pomegranate juice instead of watermelon. Our Guacamole was freshly make according to our taste.... pepper on the side. I was going to have tacos but nixed that when I heard that their market fish was Chilean Sea Bass! The enchilada was packed with chicken and quesadilla with a generous amount of meat. Love Besito!

Stopped here for lunch with friends on Sunday after spending the morning on the beach. Started off with the fresh guacamole and chips, which was excellent! Just a note, they aren’t making it table side now because of the pandemic which I think is the right call. I ordered the steak quesadilla but all the dishes on our table looked delicious! Would definitely come here again.

My party has a variety of dietary constraints (gluten free and vegetarian) and we struggle finding a restaurant that will have options to satisfy all guests. We all loved our lunch choices! I had the chicken skillet tacos, which were more similar to fajitas with queso. There was also a lobster/seafood enchilada which looked, smelled, and tasted wonderful! Would definitely recommend giving this Mexican restaurant a try, much better than some of the other mexican spots in Huntington.

I visited Besito's for my company's Christmas dinner. This place is the absolute best every single time I come. I had the shrimp tacos and a mango margarita. It was absolutely delicious. OMG the guacamole was so amazing. Definitely recommend. The waitresses are efficient and helpful. The food & drinks were replenished very quickly, and everything was phenomenal. I look forward to my next visit to Besitos.

Simply an amazing place to go. Very relaxing atmosphere. Professional and friendly staff. Happy workers and you are not just a customer to them. They will treat you like a friend or a family. A great place to be after a hectic day at work or any. Highly recommend !

The food was exquisite, specifically the Sonoro ribs. The food was prepared in a timely manner and the service was great. They accommodated our needs and made the experience enjoyable. Our waitress was friendly and explained everything in detail.

Incredible food and great service! The atmosphere was perfect, if just a little dark and at the end they gave us muñecas quitapenas, a traditional doll that carries worries away!

Love this place! Every time I visit Huntington I stop by here. The food is delicious, the service is great, and the drinks are amazing!

Food and desserts are delicious here. The guacamole is a must - order a double bowl the single is too small lol. The pan skillet tacos are great - I had chicken and added shrimp. The tres leches is yummy. Saturday is very busy, reservations recommended. Also you will need time to find parking but it's worth it. Enjoy!!

Nicholas Bosio

Besito is an absolute pleasure of a restaurant. From the kind staff, to the wonderful atmosphere, to the delicious food, this is one of the best restaurants that I go to. They make amazing drinks and their mahi fish and steak is incredible. Every time I go I have such a pleasant experience with the staff. Moises helps to run an amazing business, always smiling and happy to make another person's day, their best. I love this place, 10/10 recommend if you want a fun time, great food, and an amazing experience!

Third time making a reservation for dinner tonight, left full and happy, service it’s always top tier, food delicious 😋, I had the same table each occasion, can’t wait to be back

Daniel

Food, service, atmosphere all amazing, guacamole was huge, chips delicious. I order steak enchiladas and steak was perfect. Servers were friendly and knowledgeable. Outdoor seating was nice, not a long wait for a table. Will be back.

Yuriy Fishman

Besito Huntington is a winner. The tableside guacamole is ridiculously fresh, the margaritas are top-tier, and every plate—from tacos to enchiladas—comes out vibrant and perfectly seasoned. Service is genuinely attentive without hovering, and the room has that “night-out” energy that just feels good. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality, consistency, and overall experience make it worth it. If you’re debating where to book for date night or a celebratory dinner, this is the move.

My friend and I came here before a concert at the Paramount a few streets down. Upon entrance we were greeted and sat at the bar. Each food and drink item had a distinct taste and was flavorful. The presentation for each dish was a thumbs up!

My husband and I had a great experience at Besito in Huntington this afternoon. We didn't have reservations but we were seated immediately. Our waiter Ever was friendly and very attentive. He brought us a big basket of chips with homemade salsa & took our drink order. He gave us a few minutes to look over the menu since it was our 1st time here. We ordered the Besito Patron Margarita & a Modelo. For lunch we ordered the Salmon Azul and the Shrimp Macho. They both came with rice and black beans for the table. They were both so incredibly delicious. I asked for hot sauce and they actually make their own habanero hot sauce from scratch. I purchased two bottles because it was so good. At the end of the meal, he gave us each a tiny "worry doll" which he told us to put under our pillow tonight and it would take away all our worries when we sleep. That was such an original idea and so cute. We will definitely be back.

I recommend it, super cozy, we enjoyed the night super. very good attention Second time I come, the food is exquisite, accompanied by my cabernet wine and of course in the company of my partner, the service is excellent, how lucky we made a reservation because it was full. thank you very much I recommend it 3er time One very special day, my birthday. I went with my boyfriend. He made a reservation. Dress code: semi-casual. The service was excellent, and the food delicious. We enjoyed it, along with my company of course. I recommend it for those who go with friends and family

I had such a great time. I went on a Saturday night with no reservation and was seated quickly. Our server was friendly gave recommendations. The drinks were great. Table side fresh guac is always a win for me. The food was flavorful. I also liked that they opened up their doors so we got the fresh air on a beautiful night.

Valeri Oliva

This was truly one of the best meals I’ve ever had. The service was friendly and welcoming and the food was divine. I had the “arrechera” hopefully I wrote that right. It was a perfectly seasoned and cooked steak with delicious corn, arugula and pomegranate salad. Drool worthy, the guacamole was so tasty and fresh. I also went with the flan for dessert and it was excellent. I cannot gush about this place enough. Going out to eat is one of my favorite things to do and it’s such a let down when everything is just “okay” when food is this good you need to tell everyone. I will absolutely be back! I know I want to try more off their menu but I might need to get this steak a few more times! I couldn’t recommend this enough! Oh, I also had a spicy drink that was wonderful. 10/10 !!

Lythia ROUSSEAS

One of the best Mexican places to eat in Huntington. The food is very fresh and a bit more upscale than the other places nearby. The service was excellent. Even the cocktail menu was very good. The servers were all very friendly and professional. There was plenty of outdoor seating right there on main Street. Extensive vegetarian options as well

Sunday afternoon at Besito’s was par excellence. We had ordered the fresh guacamole which definitely wet our appetites. The Iron skillet chicken tacos were a home run in regards to flavor. It had cheese that blended well with the chicken and with the poblano peppers. Soft tortillas for the tacos and of course the classic rice and beans. A special place to celebrate occasions or a Sunday afternoon with friends while enjoying the Huntington ambiance. I will be back!

This place is pretty good The drinks could be better my husband and I got margaritas and they were okay. We started with some shrimp empanadas which were really good. For our main course we got the Ribs which i highly recommend and my husband got the skirt steak which was okay. We had the tres leches cake which was okay not the best i’ve had. Overall the place is good and I would come back again.

We recently visited Besito for a family dinner and had a wonderful experience! The atmosphere was quiet and intimate, making it perfect for a close-knit gathering. The service was warm and personable, with our server taking the time to ensure we felt welcome and well taken care of. We ordered a variety of dishes, and the food did not disappoint - every bite was delicious! Besito's commitment to quality and flavor shone through, and we left feeling satisfied and content. A great choice for a family dinner or special occasion. 4/5 stars!

I have been here several times over the years - great staff - awesome food and drinks - fantastic ambiance - lively atmosphere. Definitely try the La Casa Margherita....it's freaking delicious!

Loved the food.. great salsa n chips and gauchomole...they have. Preset menu will not alter anything...

Besito Mexican Restaurant in Huntington , NY is a an authentic Mexican cuisine. The freshly made guacamole is definitely a perfect choice to start off with. The chicken quesadillas and the taco skillet with queso chicken, shrimp, and sausage is excellent. Reservations are recommended cause it does get busy. There is small bar to hang out at but fills up fast. Parking in the Village is difficult but eventually works out, Try the dessert tres leches.

+1

I can't say anything about dining in the restaurant, only about their takeouts. We ordered the shrimp tacos, chicken quesadillas, and fried plantains. The fried plantains were delicious. I felt like the shrimp tacos could have used a bit more flavor. The chicken quesadillas were good, but a bit on the smaller side for the price you pay. Overall not bad, but again, I'm sure if I were to eat in the restaurant the overall experience and taste would be different.

Loved the food and atmosphere!! It was so dark my Fianće asked to turn up the lights and we were quickly obliged. The food was delicious!!!! The only complaint is that we dined with another couple and asked for the bill to be split and the waitress forgot.... That caused a problem at the end of the dinner. And the other couple had another engagement, so that was annoying. But not a problem for the whole experience. We will def be back again! Thanks Besito for another great night!! And a special thank you to the managers for being so attentive!!!!

Nice Mojitos and Guacomole, made table side as well as salsa and warm chips. Highly recommend the Roasted Vegetable Quesadilla appetizer made with squash blossoms, and the Salmon Manchamenteles served with plantain and mole sauce. Others enjoyed the Duck Enchilada and the Grilled Chicken but were less enthusiastic.

It was a nice place for a dinner date or outing with friends. Service was great and friendly. It was relatively clean in the restaurant. The food was different but I think they can make the portions bigger for the prices they charge. For the ribs they are a little bit thicker than my fingers for the amount of meat you get. Otherwise flavors were nice, apps were somewhat reasonable.

Either one of these locations are great, whether you're in Huntington or Roslyn. However, they both definitely have a different vibe from each other. Here in Huntington, you'll have more of an up beat atmosphere. The food and service is very good and consistent. Portions are fairly large and can be rich, so don't be afraid to share. When you need high end Mexican food, Besito is the place you need to book!

Besito has a vast drink menu - the Margaritas are so good. The fresh made to order guacamole is great for a starter. The food was full of flavor - the Iron Skillet Chicken Tacos are recommended. A side of sweet plantains make a delicious accompaniment for any dish. It is very loud inside , so plan on sitting near the person you will socialize with the most.

I had the enchiladas mixta and to be totally honest, I really did not like the sauce. It was not bad, but it was not what I was expecting. It was more creamy than I expected. The salsa dip was great. The service was very prompt and polite.

Food was excellent, we has to remind our server to bring items we asked for but the worst part was we were shooing small flies away the entire dinner they were all of the wall and around our food other tables were doing the same thing. I am not sure if it is because we were in the back possibly coming from drains but as I have a food safety background this is an issue looking for health dept ratings. I hope they address this as this is one my favorite places.

All the food was very good. Generous portions. Guacamole was excellent . Cocktails are very good as well. My grade is 87. No complaints I probably would go back again.

Ysmael Breton

Came here on sunday before we went to the paramount for a show. Me and my wife loved the menu and we're excited to eat there. The restaurant was a little dark and we also felt rushed. They brought out the chips and salsa and the guacamole too fast and felt pressured to order our entree. The meals were very delicious. My wife's skirt steak was cooked perfectly and the sweet plantains with crema and queso fresco were absolutely delicious.

+4

Food is decent, nothing out of this world. The menu is definitely lacking options. The biggest issue (and why I should of given 1 or 2 stars, but I'll be nice) is that the margaritas are 95% ice. It's sad. I used to go here many years back and they would serve the drinks in an actual margarita glass that was large. Now, it's a small water cup filled to the brim with ice. For this reason alone, I stopped going. I hate feeling like I'm getting ripped off on drinks.

The wait staff was slow during the lunch shift on a weekday. I liked the decorations and atmosphere of the restaurant, but I was surprised that the menu was quite limited in selection. There were only a few options to pick from. I tried the fish tacos, which consisted of 3 small tacos, plus sides of rice and beans for $15. It tasted fine, but I could have easily eaten a 4th or 5th taco. They did provide free nachos and salsa, so I could eat that to fill my belly.

I like this place, but, the guacamole was more like avocado chunks. And with no flavor. I had the skirt steak, which was ok, but I couldn't taste the salt, pepper or garlic. If they put it on it. I hope they correct these issues, I will try them once more, but the atmosphere is great, and the service is fantastic.

The front staff seems a little confused. They could not find our reservation although we showed them our email confirmation. The waitress saved the night and took great care of us. The restaurant was crowded. I was seated at a booth, it was somewhat uncomfortable, old feeling. The decor is however quite nice. I ordered the palomarguarita, it was watery and bitter. My husband had the classic margarita with Don Julio upgrade. It was decent. We received the free basket of chips and salsa. They were nice. We ordered the tostones special which was ok, but not great. We had the filet mignon. A generous 8oz portion. It was good. We also ordered the street corn side dish, my husband loved it. Overall this restaurant is fine. I do not think I would return but I would not be mad if I did.

Service was amazing but food wasn't up to standard especially for the cost.. Salmon was a little burned.. Salad lacked flavor.. Enchiladas lacked freshness seems reheated or out of a box meat was rubbery.. Tried the silver flight and lacked even a proper shot for $40.

We were there around 9, was a busy night. We were seated smoothly as we made our reservation. We stayed there for 1hour 30min and felt like we were rushed out. The lady - who was in charge of taking finished dish came and asked us if we are finished. We said it’s ok. And she came again a little later and asked us again. And again… we only ordered four drinks, 1 appetizer & 1 main as this was our second place after dinner. Feeling a bit of pressure we ordered one dessert and a coffee. And again the cleaning staff came to take out the dishes. Maybe she just wanted to do her part ASAP when people are done, I am not sure. But we just left the place and probably not going to return - as there are many good places around. Good food and bad service in my personal opinion.

Great atmosphere but I must say that the food was pretty tasteless. I feel compelled to leave a review because last time I was here the food was flavorful. The sauces now tasted like water, seriously lacking any Mexican flavor. The portions are also small. It’s just not worth the price. Do they not taste the sauces after they make them? Zero spice. The chipotle didn’t taste like chipotle at all. The chef must have the day off. Also, the waiter spilled red sauce all over my pants and wife’s jacket and just said sorry. Didn’t go out of his way to make things right. We were left with a “bad taste” in our mouths after this experience. I hate leaving a bad review but even after I told the waiter that the food was flavorless he didn’t seem to care. I was very polite and delicate about it and still, nothing. I hope the manager takes this review and implements some changes to the restaurant.

Ordered takeout. The fish tacos $19 were minuscule in a tortilla that disintegrated. The beef quesadillas $21 had very little meat. The chicken tortilla soup had no flavor and was served in a small cup for $16. The iron skillet steak tacos were sitting on top of an unidentifiable starch. Over all a complete disappointment and overpriced quasi Mexican meal.

Tequila selection and prices? Top notch. Ambience? A+. Food? Stay home. Fish tacos- flavorless and were obviously frozen with a mushy texture. Mixed iron skillet tacos also lacked flavor. The crispy tacos were decent but nothing I would return for. Chips, guacamole and tequila I can have at home.

After seeing so many good reviews we decided to get dinner at Besito in Huntington today. While it wasn’t terrible it was disappointing and expensive for very average bland food. Our server was nice and explained the best dishes very well. We ordered the chicken quesadilla and chicken grill plate. We also had nachos and salsa and the side of street corn. The chicken had absolutely no flavor. No seasonings or any flavor reminiscent of Mexican food. The cheese was a little salty. The street corn tasted like plain buttered corn, again, no authentic Mexican seasonings. To liven up the flavor of our food a bit we ended up using the salsa for the chips (as that was the best tasting item we had) and I asked for some lime on the side to squeeze on. Even the red and green sauces were bland and surprisingly had no chili heat. My fiancé had been to besito about 20 years ago and remembered the food being better then. While it wasn’t horrible, it was just bland. Very bland.

The atmosphere is nice. Food are pricey, taste just ok, all appetizer are $18 and above, guacamole is $28. The waiter was not friendly.

We’ve been loyal patrons of Besito since around 2011, mainly at the Roslyn location. The original owners came to know us well over the years and were always so warm and welcoming to our growing family. We always looked forward to a wonderful experience — incredible food, ambiance, and service. We celebrated many special occasions at Besito Roslyn, and they always made us feel appreciated. Today, however, we visited Besito Huntington and had a miserable experience. We made a 7:00 pm reservation for a party of nine, which I booked several days in advance. When we arrived, we waited about 30 minutes because they needed to join a couple of tables and were waiting for a party of two to leave. The issue? That party had finished their meal and paid nearly 30 minutes prior — they were simply chatting at the table. The manager refused to ask them to vacate the table, and told us that we’d have to wait until they left on their own. I was baffled. Restaurants deal with this situation all the time, and many know how to handle it with tact — perhaps gently reminding guests that the next reservation has arrived, or inviting them to continue their conversation at the bar. No such attempt was made. Instead, our party of nine had to wait for a party of two to leave, which is simply poor business practice. It left us feeling like our patronage didn’t matter. To make matters worse, one of the dishes we ordered — chicken tacos — was shockingly plain. We had asked to substitute chicken for beef, yet what was served were three tacos with just chicken and melted cheese. No vegetables, no garnish, no seasoning — nothing resembling the flavorful Mexican cuisine Besito is known for. When we asked about it, we were given a small bowl of salad to add on top. It’s embarrassing for a restaurant of Besito’s reputation and caliber to serve a dish like this. After many years of dining with Besito, I can honestly say this experience was a huge disappointment. We won’t be returning to the Huntington location. We’ll visit Roslyn, or find a restaurant that values and appreciates its customers.

I ordered a steak quesadilla and BARELY had steak I was so disappointed i was expecting more from this place, drinks were good tho.

if I could give this place zero stars I would. I had the absolute worst experience ever. My friends and I were celebrating my birthday and wound up getting completely sick from the food. In addition to that, we were rushed out and no one acknowledged my birthday celebration. This has to be the least accommodating place I have ever been to. But the worst part was my friend and I threw up all night. I would be very careful going here.

Rude staff with a attitude over a simple question. Plus they rush you to eat. Unacceptable

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND SKIP THIS PLACE. IF YOU DRIVE A TESLA OR DON’T SHARE THEIR POLITICS, EXPECT PROBLEMS. WHAT SHOULD’VE BEEN A $50 MEAL TURNED INTO A $5,000 HEADACHE. GO ANYWHERE ELSE.

It is evident that some individuals may not have experienced authentic Mexican cuisine. The numerous positive reviews regarding this establishment are quite surprising. I visited this restaurant several years ago and left feeling dissatisfied. When my boyfriend proposed we dine there for date night, having received a recommendation from a friend, I reluctantly agreed to give it another chance, despite my reservations. Regrettably, I found myself disappointed once more. The food lacked flavor; the guacamole was merely mashed avocado with no seasoning whatsoever. I ordered the fish tacos, which were devoid of salt and seasoning, rendering them tasteless. I had to request hot sauce to make them palatable. My boyfriend chose the filet mignon, which was acceptable, but it was covered in a mole-like sauce that provided some flavor. Unfortunately, it was cooked more rare than the medium doneness he had requested. Additionally, we felt quite rushed during our meal. The service was so hurried that the waiter did not even inquire if we desired dessert; instead, she promptly brought the check after clearing our entrée plates. For context, our reservation was at 8:15, and we were back home by 9:38, despite living only 15 minutes away.

After having dinner here, we had to go to McDonald's to fill our appetite because the food here tasted so bad. Drinks were also not up to standard. Not coming back.

Have been here tonight to celebrate graduation of my husband and experience in this place absolutely destroyed the whole evening. The food was 3 out of 10, we got tacos , it was plain, no salt, no spices, even guacamole was tasteless.. too overpriced and portions are too small. Our friend couldn’t finish his dish cause the dressing was really strange, the cocktais were as if they got recipe from Chat Qpt. Left the place hungry and sad, went to Mcdonalds afterwards
