Memitos Tacos And Deli - Monticello (NY)

2 /5 Anthony M: Great food, terrible service, and zero accountability. I placed my online order at 6:50 PM for pickup at 7:40. I finally got out of there at 8:25, nearly an hour past schedule. No apology. No explanation. Not even a half-hearted “sorry for the delay.” Just business as usual, apparently. Last year, the birthday cake I ordered for a birthday. It looked like it was thrown together during someones smoke break. I gave it a pass—mistakes happen. But this isn’t a one-off. It’s a pattern. Long waits, chaotic staff, and a complete absence of leadership. And here’s the kicker: the owner was present and said nothing. No attempt to fix the mess, no acknowledgment, no customer care. Your food may be good, but that doesn’t excuse treating repeat customers like theyre lucky just to be fed. I’ve walked out of this place disappointed for the last time.

5 /5 Ade Moni “Dala”: My sister lives in the area and orders here often, so while visiting her for the holidays i joined her and I’m glad I did. I ordered tacos cow tongue, Mexican sausage, pork stomach, and salted beef, and every single one was amazing. Everything was flavorful cooked perfectly with love and care. The customer service was phenomenal too. They recognized my sister since she comes often, and they were so welcoming and kind. I’m leaving this review so I remember what I ordered next time I’m in the town.

5 /5 Smiling Bellies: A pleasant and delightful surprise in Monticello. Very nice to have another good Mexican Restaurant in the neighborhood (La Fondita is also very good. The art work on the back of the counter chairs is vibrant and lively. I’d like to know who the artist responsible for that is. So anytime I walk into authentic Mexican or Spanish restaurants I like to do a quick survey to spot any fountain drinks. That clue lets you know you came to an authentic place. And Memito’s did not disappoint in that category. Horchata, Hibscus and Watermelon. The chips were fresh out the fryer when they arrived at our table alongside with the well seasoned bowl of guacamole. Can’t go wrong with the side of rice and beans! My 5 yo son can eat that whole side by himself. I had the hard tacos (potato and cheese) which were so delicious. They used a soft Oaxaca cheese. The potato version was my favorite bc it tasted like it was a French Fry encrusted in a taco. My husband had the cemita with all vegetables, a huge sandwich about the size of a small football! He loved it. Been back twice now & I will say the space is rich warm and comforting. You will wait patiently for your food bc it will take a little bit but it’s worth the wait. There is also a bodega in here so finding kitchen utensils and other odd items is possible.

5 /5 Tj Gates: Delicious cooked to order tacos…plus so much more. I didn’t know what to to expect when I sat down at the counter as it was pretty quiet between the lunch rush and dinner, but boy I’m glad I stayed. Service was warm and helpful and I ordered a chorizo and a campechano taco. Flavorful, fresh, and filling — and I’m picky about tacos. A few peope came in after me and made me wish I had ordered whatever they were eating. So I will definitely be going back to try the rest of the menu. Kind service in a homey space.

2 /5 Wanda Matos: I spent 30 dollars on some tacos and a quesadilla. The girl asked me if I wanted it on corn or a flour wrap but I had so idea which one so she suggested a corn wrap with an attitude. By the time I got home the wrap was hard and the chicken did not have any flavor. It just looks like boiled chicken. I hate wasting food but I threw the whole order away. Not only because it was hard and dry but because I do not like eating anything from anyone that serves me with an attitude. I do not like that type of energy. Then she has the audacity to look at the receipt to see if I left a tip, then looked at me. Like really. What Im supposed to tip you for your attitude and say keep up the good work. Yeah ok.
