Grexicana is a Fusion restaurant in the Farmingdale neighborhood of Farmingdale.
“This restaurant exceeded all of my expectations! The tacos were hands down some of the best I’ve ever had, and the drinks were just as amazing. Everything was packed with flavor and absolutely worth trying. My only minor complaint was the wait time for both the food and drinks, but honestly, once everything arrived, it was completely worth it. The quality more than made up for the delay. I would 100% come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for incredible tacos and great drinks! 🌮🍹🙌”
“Amazing! Loved everything about this place! I love Greek food so to find a spot mixed with Greek and Mexican was like wow! We got there about 11:30am it was fairly empty and we loved it! We ordered calamari and yuca fries for an appetizer omg didn't even know I needed that combo together lol. I opted for the bottomless mimosas and ended up getting a lamb pasta dish that was so flavorful and delicious. Bae ordered a chicken Caesar pita with sweet potato fries omg that pita was so good! Mimosas were strong and the place was nicely decorated! You could tell it was a family owned biz and they were attentive and informative! I highly recommend trying them out and we will be back to try something else on that menu!!”
“I had compiled a list of 10 Farmingdale restaurants, and although all of them were highly acclaimed. There was only one place my tummy craved. Grexicana, a Greek-Mexican restaurant with Mexican and Greek art plastered on its walls, and mystical music lightly comforting the ambiance. It was to my surprise and excitement the place was empty. As if they were waiting for us, and the experience was so nice, like we reserved the restaurant and became part of their family. The service was superb. I didn't feel guilty asking the waitress for her recommendation, and as I listened intently to her description of the top menu items, I realized a big problem. EVERYTHING SOUNDED SO GOOD. We had the grilled halloumi with carnitas as an appetizer and I loved how familiar the ingredients were to me. Delicious squeaky cheese fried lightly and paired with tasty lamb and sauce. I recommend pairing the hot sauce with the pickled jalapeno and onion. I loved our entree, the lamb birria over orzo; the orzo served as a shuttle of flavor and the lamb was tender sitting in its juices. There’s nothing a man craves more at the end of the day than tender meat and a juicy trip to flavortown. My partner had the chorizo pastitsio, a harmonious marriage of Mexican & Greek. The bechemel would slide into the pasta and chorizo, leaving a lingering satisfaction so divine after every bite. Just when we were about to leave we we were offered Pandora’s box…we opened the dessert menu. Our greatest hits all curated coincidentally into one menu. Churro, icecream, brownies, baklava, cheesecake. I had the baklava cheesecake w/ baklava icecream and my partner had the brownie w/ icecream. The first taste of our plates had our eyes wide, and when we experimented with what we ordered, it was otherworldly experience. Pricing was fair, and the portion size was exemplary, we came home with plenty of extra plates to share and enjoy for the next day. We want to commend the kitchen staff, the waitress and the waiter who kept our drinks flowing and our laughs going.”
“Loved loved loved our weekday dinner here. Awesome interior murals. Clean, spacious. Magic at the right volume to allow for conversations (and be able to hear each other). Eclectic fusion menu - we had to pay attention and put effort into deciding what we wanted because it was refreshingly different from the usual fare. Food was amazing. Cheese nachos were great for sharing. Kids had Greek burgers 🍔 with fries 🍟. We had shrimp tacos and lamb shank over orzo. I felt the shrimp tacos were the best, wife felt the lamb shank was the best. Drinks could be priced better - but both the Mexican old fashioned and the mango margarita were pretty good.”
“Went out to Grexicana for some dinner with friends. The restaurant was still decorated for the holidays which I loved. Decorations were absolutely beautiful. Our server was very kind and attentive. Food was good…a little pricey but that’s everywhere nowadays! The workers let us stay past closing and did not rush us out which was very much appreciated. Apparently they also serve brunch so I hope to come back and try their brunch menu another day. Highly recommend checking out Grexicana if you are craving Greek, Mexican, or both cuisines.”
