Love the Chiwawas here. It's a crushed rice ball with your choice of the typical burrito toppings. Huge size that is hard to finish but I do. Lol. Lots of Jersey Shore locations. read more

Bubbakoo's Burritos - Chiwawa, chips with salsa and a soda. - Mexican Near Me - Manahawkin, New Jersey

They do not do the authentic tacos here, so if you're looking for authentic tacos do not go here. I ordered steak tacos for my wife, they give a very eagerly rationed amount of steak which tasted weird and then expect you to fill up the flour tortilla with beans and all this other stuff. I asked for cilantro and red onion since they only had red onion raw. So you're left with a large four tortilla with some marinated burnt square pieces of steak and not much else. $18 for a drink and 3 barely edible tacos with maybe 4 ounces of steak total. Will never be back there. read more

Disappointed The chop meat bowls we ordered had too much rice plus the rice was undercooked. There was hardly any meat and it was very dry. The lettuce should have been cut into smaller pieces. Anyway, the girls behind the counter were very nice but I don't know if I'll go back. Been here a few times but awhile ago. read more

I love bubbakoos in general for the many interesting and rotating sauce and flavor options.... However this location gave me the worst food poisoning of my life. I have not been able to return to Bubbakoos since and it is devastating. Genuinely get your act together here please read more

My friend and I went in on June 26th, 2025. Absolutely amazing service. The girls working there were so nice and funny! They actually made the experience amazing! And had my friend and I laughing when we were leaving! Hope to see them all again because they are amazing! read more

It's just good food. Tasty, generous portions a reasonable price. Checks all the boxes.

I decided to give Bubbakoo's a shot on Friday 8/11/23. The staff was great and very accommodating. Because it was my first visit, I asked for recommendations and the gentleman serving me went through all of the potential options and let me know what was most popular as well as his own personal favorites. I went with a burrito bowl with shrimp and steak. I'm usually hesitant to get shrimp (or steak for that matter) at "fast food" places, however, the shrimp in particular was excellent. There was a great range of sauces and add ons as well. The rice was a little mushy, however, everything else was great and fresh. I'd come back again based on the food, but I'll definitely be coming back based on my experience with the service. All of the people working Friday night were great and worked together to make for a great experience late on a Friday night! read more

I've been here a series of times since it has opened.... Then til now, the people making the meal have been borderline incompetent. I've ordered in person and through apps, either way, I've somehow never had them make me the correct order. Not to mention, this is the pre-schoolers version of Chipotle (just a parking lot away) So, it's gonna be a no from me dawg... read more

Staff is almost obsequiously friendly. Huge menu where every dish is specifically customized and made to order right in front of you. Fresh, flavorful, filling. Authentic depending on what you order. Reasonable prices. Fast service. Easy parking. Clean restrooms. read more

Went on my work lunch break with my coworker. We had the general tso's chicken quesadilla and a Buffalo chicken quesadilla. Both were absolutely delicious! It came with sour cream and salsa on the side. Service was quick and super friendly - I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area. read more

Go here over Chipotle. Jordan is great at making burritos. Now, I can't see how anyone can go to chipotle with their exorbitant prices and inferior food. Go to Bubbakoo's instead. read more

Awesome burritos and super friendly staff. I picked up my order and at least 3 different employees greeted me. Really enjoyed making my own custom burrito on their website for pickup also. Affordable prices for a family. I will be back! read more

This is a great place and just different from other burritos. I love the rice ball, it is amazing. The jalapeño poppers have cheddar cheese and that is perfect for me. You need to see what is possible in the burrito world. read more

My wife and I decided to try a new place - you know - mix things up. After a few "i don't knows" And "I'll eat whatever's" we found ourselves sitting in the chipotle parking lot (as usual). One last search on google maps to find some "better" and we stumbled on Bubbakoo's burritos. We decided to give it a shot! Change isn't easy and not always accepted but gee whiz I'm glad we did. Chipotle tastes the same everytime which is great when you know what your getting but Bubbakoo's has lots of different flavors to choose from and an authenticity behind it. It feels local. Where as chipotle is like the staples of food franchises. Highly recommend - I got the burrito with chicken and sriracha ranch. Chips guac and empanadas. read more

I can in the other day with my daughter and the heavier set man was very rude to my husband. The man asked about my husband being in the military since he was wearing his dog tags and when my husband said he did not want to talk about it the man became cold and messed up out bowl and gave us attitude. read more

Do yourself a favor and discover bubbakoos! I wanted a treat after a good news dr visit, so headed to Bubbkoos for the quesadilla. Shredded chicken, corn , cheese, peppers and onions and more goodies too- you build your own- going to try with general Tso flavor next time - the restaurant is clean, convenient, and those quesadilla so delish! read more

This place is great! Similar to Moe's and Chipotle. They pile on the toppings and protein. Go hungry leave happy!

This place has been open all summer & I'm so happy I can finally write this review! I love this place! It's a chain restaraunt bit it's a little different. I always enjoy coming here for a quick dinner. There is a small menu but lots of different ways to make your bowls, burritos and tacos. They always have a line but it moves. It's worth the wait. They are still getting the kinks smoothed out. Prices are good. This is a step up from taco bell. I love taco bell,but sometimes I want a bowl! read more

See all

Delicious grilled shrimp burrito. Kids enjoyed their chicken burrito and rice bowls. And the one is such a picky eater! Awesome.

Usually love this place but 2 x this week I've purchased the taco salads for my family and the shells were undercooked. If you've had the taco salad the shell is the best part. It's not an inexpensive meal. May be a while before I go to this location again. read more

Grabbed a quick late lunch on Saturday. The place was clean (including the bathroom), staff was friendly and food was well seasoned and fresh. Quesadilla was a little oily, but pork tacos were great. Comparable but better IMO to Chipotle or Qdoba. Will definitely go back for takeout again. read more

Awesome place the wings are awesome people are very friendly I'm recommended for my friends and family

Out of towner here for work, and have been here 3 times. Super yummy. Love the shrimp Tacos! The Queso is also very delicious. Great customer service. Definitely recommended this place :) read more

My husband and I have gotten the burrito bowls twice from here and each time they were very good. I will say the marinated chicken is AWESOME and better then the grilled chicken. The employees are very friendly and helpful. The ordering online system is very convenient. read more

This place is amazing!! The service was impeccable, and the food was even better. The portions for the price are worth it. I highly recommend this place if your in town!! read more

This place was above average but was become such a shit show. Staff is terrible, was good now awful.... Cashier stares out into an empty store while 1 ONE! Employee tries to keep up with walkin orders, online orders etc.... Meanwhile dude in the back pretending to wash dishes is on his phone staring into oblivion.... Don't know what happen here but so inefficient, where did the kids that gave a shit that were working here go? read more

usually order about twice a month from here as my wife loves tacos. Both orders the last month are so are completely wrong or missing crap like no one gives af. Mine I just ordered looks like they started copying my wife's order and went oops f it and closed it and served it up. Don't bother with this place. One in toms river is filled with much more competent people. read more

I have been ordering pretty much the same "bowl" from here, for several months now. Product and service is consistently good. You get a lot of food for the price. Newly vegan, I appreciate that I can find customizable, made-to-order "fast food" that fits the bill, as I am on the road daily for work, in the Manahawkin area. I usually get a brown rice and bean bowl, with whatever toppings I choose. Sometimes I also include a Boca burger (vegan). Welcoming, friendly, fast, and competent service. The crew clearly is imbued with the positive brand ethic about the product and experience they are delivering. I will say though that there seems to be high staff turnover here. They always are very busy when I am there. I will qualify an earlier comment that states that Bubbakoo's is a chain. Initially founded on the Jersey shore (Point Pleasant) in 2008, Bubbakoo's locations are actually franchises--so, these are quasi-independent, local businesses that you are supporting, by patronizing them. read more

The entire order was spilt all over the bottom of the bag I went back in to report this and the "manager" says that's not my problem sir. Obviously frustrated I went home and decided to eat it and give it a chance. After scooping up the remains of my meal from the bottom of the bag I took a bite out of my burrito bowl, and man.. I have eaten some bad food but this is probably top of the list the rice was white mush that was one block the steak was one of the worst things I have ever tasted. I gagged a bit and spit it all up. I can honestly say from that one bite I have been having an upset stomach and it's been two hours. Please for the love of god do not come here you will not only be wasting your money but also risking your health! read more

This was the first time going to bubbakoo's and it was one of or the most delicious fast food I have eaten. I got bone-less wings and curly fries totally recommend read more

Second time I had issues with this place. I did a online order and they just substituted something else and did not tell me. Got home and found out that it was not what I ordered. Had to go back and they said they meant to say something but did not. Was told they don't have it anymore and that I had to wait to be refunded. That it would take a few days. Why was it still on the menu then and why a few days to refund the money. I was told the could not sell the one item and when called back that they were out at the time. So are you out or can't sell it. I am sure that I will get one of those corporate responses to this as will as the other negative reviews, and if there was a negative review I would have given it. I down loaded this app just to give this review I don't ever do this. This is the first time for me read more
