This place was open only for lunch after 1 for some reason, but this worked fine with my plans. It is a small and rather spartan place which offered a Latin American menu, notably with decent vegetarian options. Their crispy chili lime tofu delivered 100% on the description, being both very battered and fried and having a strong tart flavor. It made for a great taco filling, and arrived with ample beans and rice. The rice seemed to have been sitting a while and was a bit clumped, but the beans had a nice spice mix. Given the limited alternatives, I felt I made a good choice in coming here and was well fueled for some hiking. read more

Bub’s Burritos - Chili lime tofu tacos - Mexican Near Me - Southwest Harbor, Maine

What a fantastic gem of a restaurant in Southwest Harbor! We were visiting this charming town and noticed Bubs when we drove through - a quick Yelp search told us we had to try this place, and we're so glad we did! Everything was fresh & expertly made, and I especially loved the chicken tortilla soup on a chilly night. The delicious burritos are XL and definitely shareable. Staff was kind and helpful, and most of the menu seemed to be gluten-free, which was welcome news for one of my friends - there was even a GF tortilla option for the burritos. Gracias, amigos! read more

My wife and I ordered takeout; one chicken burrito, one house salad, and one chicken enchilada. We were amazed by the amount of food we received! We are both above average eaters in the middle of marathon training and we got three meals out of the burrito and it must have weighed 2-3lbs. The house salad was equally large. Flavors were excellent. The house salad dressing could use a bit of work, but overall it was nice to have some variety in the land of seafood and sandwiches. read more

Overall, it was a solid 3-star experience. We arrived and stood by the door for a few minutes before anyone acknowledged us, even though we made eye contact with the servers. That was a bit surprising given how small the indoor dining area is. Speaking of small, they don't have a restroom inside, so you have to walk around the building and go up to the second floor to use the bathroom. The menu isn't huge but covers the Mexican staples -- tacos, burritos, enchiladas, fajitas -- along with a few Latin American dishes like yuca and empanadas. The yuca nachos were honestly the highlight of the meal, really tasty. The enchiladas, though, were pretty disappointing; the chicken was super bland, and there wasn't even an option to make it spicy. The rice and beans that came with it were just okay, nothing memorable. We also got a burrito and decided to pay extra to double its size, which in hindsight wasn't necessary. The regular portion is big enough! Two people could easily share the doubled version. The pork in the burrito had way more flavor than the chicken in the enchiladas. What was strange, though, was that the burrito didn't automatically come with cheese; you had to pay extra for it. That's like ordering a lobster roll and being charged extra for mayo. The total came to $75 after tip, for one appetizer, two entrees, and a Dos XX beer ($6). read more

The owner, Serkon, was super friendly and accommodating! He was short staffed and wasn't stressed having to take over the roles of his staff. We waited at the bar for our food. The homemade chips and salsa were delicious! Looking forward to eating the food we ordered. read more

The food was very good and fresh. The chorizo queso was yummy and the burritos were huge. Our waiter was nice and owner checked on us. It was a little warm in the restaurant today because there is no air conditioning and temps were high. read more

This was the best burrito ever! Great Palma too! This place is a gem! Don't miss it! Leftovers for another meal! Can't wait!

Bub's Burritos greatly exceeded our expectations for a late lunch on the way to Bar Harbor. The made from scratch entrées, freshly squeezed margaritas, and personal customer service makes this restaurant must stop in Southwest Harbor! Truly the best margarita I've ever had! read more

Awesome food. Empanadas were light and crispy. Got seated quickly on a Saturday night. Good selection of Mexican sodas and beer. read more

Takeout took an hour with little people in the restaurant. Ignored us every time they walked by us, obviously upset as we were in a big rush to get home. read more

Very cute little spot in Maine within Acadia National Park. It's something different among the various seafood joints. We got a burrito and burrito bowl with fresh squeezed lemonade. My boyfriend's burrito was huge. My food was good right siz. But our lemonade was not sweet at all and we had to ask for some sugar. It is a bit pricey overall, but not a bad spot to go eat considering the touristy location. read more

Veggie burrito is just okay. Heavy on the rice and bland veggies. But the homemade tortillas are to die for and salsa with chips was delicious. Service was great and drinks were great. Nice spot! I went a couple years back and they had a breakfast burrito that was even better, bring it back!! read more

Meh. Extremely large burrito and I'm not entirely sure what was in it besides beans, rice and chicken. Some other toppings would have been nice. Maybe cheese? It said Pico but I didn't seem to have that in mine. Not my favorite and it felt wasteful because it was so huge. read more

WOW! My husband and I popped by for an early dinner and we were absolutely blown away by the quality of the food (and the portions!). Everything is homemade, including the tortillas, with excellent flavor! My husband and I are originally from Texas, so we usually don't expect much when it comes to burritos and tacos in Maine. We were beyond impressed. Initially, we thought the prices were a little on the higher end (not surprising for MDI), but the food was truly worth every penny-- quality and quantity! We could each only finish about half of what we ordered (chicken burrito bowl and BBQ pork burrito). If you enjoy burritos, this is a must have while in the MDI area. HIGHLY recommend! Bring your appetite and you will NOT be disappointed. A few of our personal favorites: the tortillas, fresh pico, lime yogurt sauce. read more

This new addition to the islands food scene is absolutely fantastic. I lived in Texas for most of my life and I'm in constant search of great Mexican food. We've been coming to the island for 20 years and never found good Mexican food. On a whim, we tried Bubs. Bubs is very very good food. First, the tortillas used to make the burritos are homemade. They are fantastic. A perfect texture and flavor, grilled to a slight char in places. Excellent! The meats (and tofu) are very good. I had a tofu bowl for lunch, which was surprisingly flavorful and crispy. Later, I tried the sausage and chicken. All great. The vegetable additions are very fresh and the coleslaw is also great. Since it was a vacation, we tried the fresh churros, and we could have ate two times as many. These folks know what they are doing and clearly care about their food. No joke, go here. read more

Ordered a chicken burrito. Yes it was large! Requested white rice, black beans, shredded chicken, cheese, and lettuce. Got unseasoned white rice, unseasoned black beans, unseasoned shredded chicken, cheddar cheese, and romaine lettuce on a large burrito wrap. Not good. read more

Amazing! Coming to Maine from New Jersey, I spent years in California and ate in Mexico all the time, some of the best local mexican! The chorizo queso is to die for!! the sausage is locally done and is very mild. Must try if you are in the area for lunch! read more

The management is so nice!! I had a lovely burrito there yesterday and I accidentally left my purse there. They were kind enough to bring it to the police station to be mailed back to me. I'm very appreciative! Now about the food- the burrito was huge and was so delicious! Perfect meal after enjoying Acadia. Would recommend to everyone!! read more

We decided to try Bub's Burritos while on vacation. it is absolutely the best Mexican food we've ever had, and we've tried a lot of places back in our home area! Staff was very friendly and the place was super clean as well. We highly recommend Bub's! read more

For this sleepy little town of Southwest Harbor, Bubs is a standout. Their food is delicious, healthy and flavorful. I had shrimp tacos and my husband had the enchiladas. Tonight I had a burrito and he had tacos. The black beans are fresh and not mushy, the rice is delish. And, I had the best margarita I have ever had, truly. Bubs makes their own mixers and they are made with fresh juices. Their Palomas are made with hand squeezed grapefruit juice! Who does that? YUM. I am a little concerned that they will get overrun by a good review, but this little new place deserves all of the credit for their sweet little restaurant that serves great food. read more

Came back again after visiting this summer. The burrito is the size of an artisanal loaf of bread, so we split one this time. The ground beef was extremely salty before, and was again today. Otherwise the burrito and salsas tasted fine, and the plantains were nice. Unfortunately something was off about it and we both endured waves of nausea and burping up for the next few hours while hiking around, which isn't quite as bad as actually vomiting, but also isn't much better. I don't know if it was the meat, or the yogurt sauce, or the corn salsa, or what, but I'm afraid of how it's trip through me is gunna end read more

Barbacoa burrito and guacamole were amazing. This was our favorite casual unplanned meal in Maine!

Rare find by my wife who was looking for a place to eat after we hiked Flying Mt. Food is all fresh and cooked to order. You may have to wait 10-15 minutes so be patient it is worth it. We all had the bowls. You make your own by following a menu and asking the owner for assistance. I had the ground beef with brown rice, black beans, cold slaw and sour cream. Excellent. Others had the shrimp and churro beef with fixings which were reported excellent too. The guacamole and homemade chips were also top notch. They have homemade lemonade and various other alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. Their vibe is chill with reggae music to dine by. You will love this great restaurant. Outside seating only when we were there. read more

Per my wife - On vacation and had the taste for a burrito bowl. My black beans and rice were both under cooked. I ordered sweet plantains for an extra charge and all I got was slivers! Over $5.00 for beef empanadas which had no flavor! I make them at home much better tasting and for so much cheaper. Wow dissatisfied for sure. read more

My chicken taco came with weird cold uncooked corn tortillas. My boyfriend's ground beef empanada tasted like fish. Very strange food.

Really good and LARGE burritos. In fact if there is any draw back, the burritos are too big, as you'll want to attack with a knife and fork since you can't eat by hand w/o making a mess. The tortillas are fresh home made and ingredients obviously the same. A bit on the pricey side, but in this case, you get what you pay for! Super casual dining as it's a walk up window with outside seating only or take away. If you can eat the whole burrito in one sitting, you won't need dinner! read more

Small quaint place. The servings are very generous, and selections are great. Definitely recommend when in Southwest Harbor.

A solid burrito for the location! HUGE portions, the burrito easily weighed 5 pounds. Great for sharing. Got the chicken burrito, get the Gallo Pinto rice and beans, adobo chicken (not on the menu, but a must), the tropical salsa is amazing (pineapple instead of tomato pico). Cost you about $15 a burrito, but worth it! Great spot for after a hike! read more

This burrito was the biggest burrito I have ever had the pleasure of eating. She was beautiful,she was delicious, she was the burrito to end all burritos. The staff was very kind, serving us quickly with a smile. This restaurant should be on your bucket list. read more

Truly fabulous and a welcome addition to Southwest Harbor. Honestly you could share burritos and walk away full.

best burrito I have had in a long time! friendly service and a nice small place to eat!

Amazing burritos with very fresh ingredients. The homemade tortillas are excellent and the burritos are huge! Best lunch we've had here.

I love Bub's. Quality ingredients like handmade tortillas. I especially like the breakfast one because of the plantains. Just keep in mind that these are huge -- 2 meals worth. read more

This place is a gem! The food was delicious and plentiful - the tortillas are insane. The service was great and Bub is exceptionally friendly, serving everyone with a huge smile. It's a must if you are anywhere near Southwest Harbor. It's behind Main Street and there is plenty of parking. read more

Delicious! Fresh burrito bowl made to order. Customer service was great! Highly recommend.

I'll be honest... burritos have never been a "go-to" meal for me. It's not that I don't like them... it's that it's one of those things I could take it or leave it. I finally got around to trying Bub's and... OMG. What have I been waiting for?! The homemade tortilla is like a dream come true. Not to mention their the size of my thigh (as much as I wish I were fit and thin... alas, I am not... so picture some large thighs would ya? These burritos are massive!). I adore their shrimp burrito bowl (+ chimichurri please!) and the whole place is a vibe as you walk up to grab your food they have reggae music bumping in the background. Definitely worth filling your bellies up on! read more

Expecting world-class burritos in this hamlet on the coast of Maine is a bit like expecting world-class sushi at a gas station in northwest Arkansas. And yet: holy guacamole! With the sole exception of a taco joint north of Santa Cruz, this are the best burritos I've ever had. Everything is made from scratch. In a world of Sysco-truck tortillas, it's so refreshing to have a perfectly warmed homemade wrap. The rice is impossibly moist and seasoned. The barbacoa beef is meltingly tender. And the spices....some serious sorcery is happening here. A warning: I'm a big dude. 200 pounds, 6 foot 2. And on a day on which I'd kayaked 2 miles, biked 12 miles, hiked 4 miles, and swam a mile, I could barely eat half of one burrito. These are the size of footballs. A family with two young kids could easily split a single burrito! My only modest recommendation for the chef? I know some people really like radically simple guac, but I'd love to see a bit more zest: some lime, some red onion, some cilantro, a hint of jalapeno or habanero--something to take it up a notch. Otherwise, this is sheer burrito perfection . read more
