Reviews for Black Pepper in North Merrick, NY
First and last time there. Burrito bowl with pepper chicken and steak was tasteless. The pieces were chopped up so tiny. Pico de... Gallo was practically non existence and the chiptole ranch sauce was nothing but Sriracha which I cannot eat because it is wayto spicy. This place should shut down. Horrible food Read more
If I could give it zero stars I would. Food was pre cooked and reheated, salty, appetizers were small. Fajitas are not supposed... to have diced chicken but chicken strips. And it never said it would have pre melted cheese on top which by the time it wasdelivered tasted like rubber. I called the restaurant to order and they said they don?t deliver yet when I went to websitedelivery was available. They gave you two tiny tortillas for a whole plate of chicken and the avocado was brown. Oh and theygave you zero option to modify and ask for what you wanted .The place needs to burn down, that might improve the taste of theirfood. Read more
I could say that the birria tacos were great. My friend really enjoyed the steak burrito. We both agree that the food is... flavorful with every bite. Read more
Food was fantastic. Got the steak and grilled chicken tacos with teriyaki wings. Wings were ginormous! And the tacos were... absolutely fantastic! If you are on the fence, do it, food and service is fantastic. Told me come in 20, got there in 20 andfood came out fresh and hot! Highly recommended! Read more
We made the trip to Black Pepper for a late lunch. The chef took our order over the phone and we had it in hand on time. The... Grilled Steak and Spicy Chicken Tacos were the most fresh and balanced tacos we've had in a long time. Quesadillas tend to beoverly-cheesy in most taquerias but all the quesadillas had great flavor profiles with just the right amount of cheese. Ourfavorite item on the menu was the Buffalo Chicken Quesadilla which was truly the right amount of spice, acid and freshness. Ourtaco combos came with chips and housemade salsa, one of the best we've ever had. The Beef Empanada was fried perfectly and hadenough crunch and meat for every bite. Though the Pepper Chicken Burger left things to be desired, the Churros gave us thesweetness to finish off the meal strong. We chose to eat out as the dine-in space was cramped to fit the store profile, andwe're glad we did. Our impression walking away from Black Pepper was just like walking out of a beach-side taqueria in SouthernCalifornia. From ordering to eating, all of us felt we found one of the most wonderfully-executed Mexican eateries on LongIsland and we'll be back again. Read more
We ordered Spicy Roasted Pulled Chicken bowl (excellent), Grilled Chicken Burrito (Good) and Grilled Steak bowl. Overall... everything was good but grilled steak lacks flavor. If you like spicy, you can ask them to make it a little bit spicy and juicy.However, I added hot sauce in it. Read more
I?ve been here at least 10 times since they?ve opened shop. I?ve had pretty much every item on the menu. Each option is unique &... distinct in its own way. They have plenty of appetizers & food options and allow you to customize as you?d like. All sauces arehomemade and taste wonderful with each dish. The staff is composed of great friendly people. The owner will go out of his way toassure you enjoy your experience, that?s something you don?t get too often. Make sure you stop by as often as you can, you willnot regret it! Read more
