Right Coast Taqueria, the rapidly expanding restaurant brand with multiple locations all over Long island already is opening a new store in Setauket.
Last summer the restaurant announced it was opening a location in Mineola to join spots in Deer Park and Ronkonkoma.
The new location will be at 4088 Nesconset Highway in East Setauket, replacing the Strathmore Bagel shop in Suffolk Plaza, according to plans submitted to the Town of Brookhaven.
The shopping center has seen changes over the years when the Waldbaums grocery store closed and Five Below took over half of the space it left. (An Amazon Fresh grocery store was also reportedly occupying the remaining empty space but plans seem to be on hold.)
Right Coast Taqueria has a menu of specialty tacos including their Birria Tacos, corn tortillas dipped in adobo sauce, stuffed with beef, cheese, onions, cilantro and served with a lime wedge and consommé for dipping. Or their Mongolian Tacos, made up from crispy beef in a sweet soy glaze, cabbage, green onions, and a chili sriracha aioli. They also have specialty burritos and nachos.
No opening date for the restaurant has been announced yet.
