Reviews for Islands Fresh Mex Grill in Wilmington, NC
Bruh I came in with them blasting the music to a point I couldn?t even hear myself. And I get it we came in 30 mins before... closing but then they got my order wrong prob bc they couldn?t even hear me. It was also my birthday and my friends burrito washalf cold. The weirdest experience I have ever experienced. Still gave it 3 stars bc tacos be slapping usually. Wait now eatingit currently and it?s mid. To clearify it was loud rap music. Okay so now I considered it and rated it 2 stars. Read more
Great for quick, cheap, and easy meal. My kiddos love it and the kids meals are $3.50. Way cheaper than going to chick fil a and... a more filling meal. Adding to our don?t feel like cooking nights list of go tos. Make sure you get the island sauce on whateveryou order. The jerk chicken burrito and chicken club quesadillas are our favorites and the medium salsa is not spicy, so stillgood to grab it for the kids. Read more
We ordered takeout for dinner, and it was affordable and the staff made sure the order was accurate. We just weren't huge fans... of the food itself. The chips had a kind of weird spice to them that made it hard to tell if the salsas were flavorless or justoverpowered by the seasoning. I never realized how important having a bland chip was for Tex Mex until I ate those spicy chips.The $1 tacos got soggy by the time we ate them (about 5 mins after pickup), but they wouldn't have been great if they werecrunchy. The queso and guac were just ok. The buffalo chicken burrito was the best thing we had but even that wasn't all thatmemorable. If you're craving chipotle but looking to support a smaller local business, this would be a way to do it, but thisreally just comes down to taste preferences so it's worth a try at least once.

We went for the $1 taco evening deal and were not disappointed. The chips were very good also. Like Subway, the tacos are made... to order. They added too much sauce for my liking, so I'd recommend holding off the sauce and adding your own salsa (availablefrom the condiments area). Read more
This is a must try place! It is like a subway but with Tacos and that is even better. You go in order how many tacos and you can... make them anyway you like! They have only locally grown produce and it is all fresh! It is also very reasonably priced! For 2tacos with guacamole and it comes with chips and whatever salsa you choose from their salsa bar for only 7 bucks! What a greatplace! Read more
We are visiting the area and decided to stop by. Walked in and immediately caught wind of a horrible smell- almost like the... trash needed to be changed. Got to the taco bar and what a mess! The one preparing my burrito scooped the rice up with his hand,disregarding the spoon. By the way, the rice was old as if been out ALL day. When the employee went to grab the cucumbers for myburrito he dug in the tray with his hand, squeezed the juice off back in the tray instead of using a spoon. ???? And to top itoff there was these flies flying around and one happen to fall in the pico salsa! Now they were not busy at all so why themess??? Needless to say I would not recommend. Read more
You can't beat $1 fresh tacos for the family after 4pm! Fed 3 people, 4 tacos each with chips, salsa and drinks for $20! Fresh... food, fast and made to order. These aren't your thin taco bell tacos! These have substance! Go get you some! Read more
I don't like to complain about places it's just a little dirty to me it seems clean behind the counter but the table and Floors... and the way that the young lady was cleaning the tables with the same rag over and over again which is absolutely no no in arestaurant business but the food was good and we do go there quite often so take it for what it's worth Read more
