My partner wanted some Buffalo cauliflower & cajon fries so went back to this place even though I really didn't want to and I'm so glad I did. The Buffalo cauliflower is delicious & cures my craving for wings without having to support murdering chickens. I told the manager that I didn't want anything in plastic and they accommodated me by using the cardboard containers. The staff was kind enough to listen to me explain to them why I refuse single use plastic and how it breaks down and is poisoning us. They didn't even look at me like I'm crazy. The staff really went the extra mile for me and because of it, I am now a regular. Thank you. read more

if I wanted a rice burrito I would have ordered one. I understand times are tough but if you order a chicken burrito there better be some chicken in it, just have been half a scoop at the absolute most. I gave them a chance as I've never eaten here before... and that decision was justified as an average chipotle order is 10x better. read more

Boo Boo and I came here after being at the dreaded motor vehicle commission in the strip mall. I was starving so we decided to snack here before going back home so I wouldn't get a hissy fit. I ordered the bowl with beans, carnitas, corn, pico and lots of cilantro. Boo Boo got the shrimp burrito with stuff that upsets my stomach but I still eat like cheese and sour cream. I think this place is way better than Chipotle. They have shrimp so Boo Boo is happy and when she is happy I can live another day! I liked they have many different hot sauces. Wish they had the Coke machine. Bathroom clean, cc accepted. I can't relate with the surfer vibe but the food is good. read more

Bubbakoo's Burritos - Carnita bowl - Mexican Near Me - Oakland, New Jersey

Above and beyond customer service and the food is always so good and fresh. I cannot recommend this location enough.

Good food but so far I've ordered delivery 4 times through Uber Eats and twice my order was sent missing part the of the order. Great pineapple salsa but the poor service makes it hard to want to bother again. read more

I was so impressed at how rude the girl at the front was! I ordered pick up, received the bag from a worker at the front. I get home and realize my quesadilla was not in there so I give a call. Apparently "the person must've just taken it" - well... no I spoke to someone when I picked it up. "I was in the back doing paperwork, so I guess he didn't know". Seriously, how about an "I'm sorry". I went back to pick it up - still no sorry. Foods good but just from that experience I will not go back. Am I hangry? Maybe but still. Ah - as we're enjoying our wonderful meal we now see that we received crunchy instead of grilled chicken (one serving not 2 like we ordered) and I was not given my sides for the quesadilla. :) 10/10 read more

Hands down best Mexican food I've ever had & I lived in FL lol cashier was super helpful and friendly. Food was beyond outstanding! 10 out 10 read more

Despite having to stop on a trip through NJ, we were able to find this gem! Delicious food that was extremely fresh; plus everything is made in house. We wanna make a huge shout out to Jerry. He helped our shy eleven year old not be embarrassed, but to order with ease. Clean, helpful, quick, and tasty. The taco salad had a homemade shell, too! We would love to experience this again! read more

Pretty Simple, Food is good Prices are atrocious. Hopefully the owners realize that 20 dollar bowls is a bit much

I live here in town and order from this place frequently. A couple days ago I came here for a quick lunch I ordered three tacos and one bottle of water cost me $20. I went back after noticing I was overcharged. I informed the cashier that I was overcharged. I was told because I chose "different meats" it was extra. I really didn't feel like arguing over $7. I just won't be returning. read more

I came here hoping to satisfy my craving for Chipotle and decided to order my usual burrito bowl. I got the pulled chicken and thought it was ok. I feel like the chicken is too liquidy and has to be strained more as it made my burrito bowl too watery. The flovor of yhe chicken is a lottlemon the bland side. Even my brown rice is a little mushy. I should say that the place is clean though. It's spacious that I feel like you'll gonna get a seat even on a normal busy weekdays considering it's next to DMV. read more

Great spot, great portions, good flavor combinations, pricing is a little high. Otherwise 5-stars. The food is super fresh, and don't try to compare it to Chipotle, they are two different styles, two different results. Come if if you want to really pick your flavor combos, and unlimited choices . read more

I stopped by today to give this new place a try. The location it's great, I have been coming to this center for food, pool supplies, shopping and of course dmv for years. So when I saw this new place opening, I knew I had to give it a try. The inside is very bright and clean. The staff were very friendly and had a big smile on their face. I decided to do the 3 tacos meal with carnitas. When the guy takes a whole scoop of carnitas and made sure it was enough. I was thinking wow this is great. Then he splits that into the 3 tacos, everything went downhill from there for me. For $9, you would think that you would get a little more protein. It literally filled up like 20% of the taco shell at best. We topped it off with black beans, lettuce, salsa, cheese and cilantro. It does come with chips and salsa on the side. Honestly, I didn't even taste the carnitas cause there was so little of it. I hope they will read this and will change to add a little more meat going forward. read more

Bubbakoo's Burritos - Mexican Near Me - Oakland, New Jersey

Love me some burritos!!! Glad to see more options around the area so here it goes. Establishment is big and looks clean. Ordered shredded chicken, pinto beans, brown rice, corn salsa, shredded cheese burrito. Service was swift and adequate. Burrito itself was portioned well! The burrito did lack flavor (possibly because I ordered plain Jane shredded chicken). There's an array of options of protein so I'm assuming those had more flavor. I'll give a different protein a try next time read more

I came here yesterday as I love Bubbakoo's but will be sure not to return.... 2 workers playing with another workers hat. Put a stuffed lizard on her head and I'm like she better put gloves. No greet or anything when I walked in. Then the girl puts gloves on... grabs my chicken and then touches her hat. Touches her hat and the stuffed lizard that they just were touching, not sure why a toy is even on her head in the work place, it falls off her head onto the floor and she's touching it all with her gloves. The grabs the chicken and lettuce and puts it on my taco.... No sense of sanitary, I was so disgusted i didn't even eat my food. read more

New place so definitely need to give it another try. The food was good. I'd say somewhere in between Moes and Chipotle. I got the sweet and sour shrimp (can't remember the name offhand). It was very good. Disappointed in the chips and they didn't come with salsa. Unless they forgot. New businesses have growing pains! read more

Let's start by "WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT". Had somewhat high hopes for this place as a first timer, but Nehhh & here's why.... First of all I should have turned around and walked out ASAP. As appearance and cleanliness as a first impress is always important. Shall I say no more regarding that situation.... Quite messy overall. So let's start with the Burrito Bowl or shall I say Rice Bowl. I mean come on why so much rice And not much of anything else and not so many options for add-ons Wanted to bring home a variety since it's our first time Also went with the chicken and cheese quesadilla: not bad, a bit on the salty side but to be expected and why wouldn't they give a side of salsa and sour cream in the container? Is that really too much for the price they're charging Queso, ridiculously spicy. Guac: OK although I will say first time we ever needed to put salt on chips. And last but not least Steak and Shrimp burrito, which came recommended from the guy behind the sneeze guard. Once again, it was OK, nothing to write home about an really wanted it to. To be honest, if I'm gonna spend $60 I would rather do take out from Don Manuel in Wayne. In the same price range and much better quality. With that being said, we will be moving on.... read more

I must say, this place is much better and I continue to order with no issues. Delicious and also bigger portions so it's worth paying the Uber eats pricing. Also a nice touch is the bag is stuffed with chips if you get them now. Maybe it's bc I'm being recognized as a repeat customer I'm getting this treatment. Not sure, but thank you! read more

I saw this on DoorDash and it looked legit (better than the cheap pick up "Mexican" spots). It wasn't cheap considering - I compared it via their DoorDash to Chipotle. It showed up and we'd ordered a double steak burrito bowl, double carnitas burrito and hot wings (we always want to find new wings). I took a bite into my burrito and it was mediocre at best- but ok I'll still eat half because I'm starving. His double steak burrito bowl he shook up in the box, took a bite.. and for the first time in our life together (6 years) I had to get him a trash can to spit it out. It clearly has what appeared to be boiled meat and lettuce that was Certainly not fresh. I'm glad he didn't eat it because I was sick after my half of a burrito. I ate one of the hot wings- it just wasn't good (wasn't pink though). I threw everything out. $50 worth of food in the trash. What a waste. read more

Burritos fall apart. They're all rice and beans. No much protein. Sometimes the burrito is soggy.

I had this today for the first time, very disappointed, taste is off from chipotle or qdoba . Tastes weird we got 2 chicken burritos nothing else 21$, rip off and wasn't good at all idk what it is but just didnt like it, you get a big portion but i think the quality is not that great and maybe thats the problem with the taste. read more

Bubbakoo's Burritos - A 2 star burrito. - Mexican Near Me - Oakland, New Jersey

My older son ordered a quesadilla here the other day and it was dripping in grease. Literally sitting in a pool of it. My younger son wanted tacos so we decided to give it another try. We ordered some tacos which were on. I ordered a taco salad no shell and it came with a shell and the wrong protein. No lettuce either. The salad was ok; not great. Bonus points for super fast delivery. read more

Solid lunch spot. My go to is the Taco Salad, which comes in a crispy tortilla bowl. Add your selection of protein and all the veggie fixings. Finish it with Sriracha Ranch. Bomb! The employees here are great! Place is clean, well stocked, and you can be in and out with your order in under 5 minutes. Kids menu is a bonus! read more

Always seen this place since we lived at pompton lakes but never ordered until we moved to bloomingdale. We have exhausted all options in our small town so we decided to give them a call. The Claiflower wings are awesome and they have a host of flavors. The quesadilla was different as if was panni press and slightly deep fried. Mt wife got the veggie bowl which was fresh and made right. Will definitely have them deliver again. read more

Love the food and the service. Big favorite for the kids, and super filling. Always pleasant every time we go.

The bowls aren't as good as Chipotle but the tacos are probably better. But what's the point of measuring out the rice in a bowl? How much could that cost even over months? It's a game of margins, but that seems like the wrong place to cut- especially in front of you. Measuring the meats makes sense. Service didn't seem unprofessional, like others suggested, but it also wasn't a busy time so maybe they aren't as drilled in high volume as other fast casual chains? They greet you when you come in and aren't standing around or on their phones and that's the bar for me at this point. Some of the food is cooked fresh to order, and that's pretty good if you have a few minutes to wait. I'd eat here again. Also got the love chips from some coupon in the mail and they were really good. Carnival-style fried food nearby is a bigger draw and differentiator than the entrees. read more

Went to this place for the first time after a haircut. Employees were very nice. Place is very clean and food tastes very fresh. High quality. I got a bowl with steak and shrimp. And it was great. They have some crazy things on the menu like fried Oreos. Check them out! read more

Ordered to go and it came home cold. Prefer Qdoba or Chipotle over this place. If I'm in the area for lunch might try to eat in and see if that's any better. This area needs a good local Mexican option! read more

Excellency service, stellar food, the best cheese quesadillas in the country!!! Recommended

Relatively good place. Gotta watch the amount of jalapeños they put in your quesadilla. They WILL dump a bowl full of whole slices in your order. I ask for half the amount CHOPPED up. They have no problem doing so. I would give them four stars but I dropped a star because I was shorted a taco in my to go order. What I don't understand is how does that happen? read more

I had heard such great things about bubbakoo's but have to say wasn't impressed. Ordered the carnitas burrito. It was soggy, meat wasn't seasoned well. Everything was an extra charge for toppings. Maybe it was just an off day but bummed with the whole burrito. Had to throw it out. read more

Underwhelming to say the least, they cook the steak and shrimp separately and it's just takes too long. I ordered the chiwawa which is a cheesy rice ball. The rice ball is huge and dry, the amount of cheese added doesnt help, I ordered guac, sour cream and cilantro, nothing could really help this awful mess. The kid put the cilantro in the center then covered it with guac. The steak was tough but the shrimp were ok. My bf got double steak tacos which he said were good but he will eat anything. The salsa was so watery he had a puddle in his dish and his steak wasnt tender either. If the wait wasnt so long it could be decent but I dont see how this can last read more

The Biggest Problem with this place is you can't have HIGH SCHOOL KIDS working your restaurant with no real BOSS around very very inconsistent servings, I've been there three times and every time its different when I get the same thing every time and the last time I was there I noticed that the Pepper and Onions were very low it was't my turn but I told the guy he told another guy and the other guy went and did something else then 15 Min's later he put the stuff on the grill and I was like I'm not gonna wait another 15 min's for that stuff to cook after I already told the Guy 15 Min's before and told them I was PISSSST Oh yeah the stuff is cold not HOT read more

I've grown up in Oakland my whole life. It's so good to have a delicious Mexican restaurant so close to home. The food is fresh, reasonably priced and always on time read more

Decided to get burritos late after work yesterday. Husband got the ground beef and I got the buffalo chicken. Tasted fresh and you get a lot of food for your money. I liked it better than Chipotle. read more

This place was just meh. Some stuff was better than others. I had a burrito with the sweet chilli shrimp which was pretty good. My husband got his burrito with double steak and he though it was just ok. My daughter also got a burrito with steak but it seemed like they barely put any steak in it. The guacamole is definitely not fresh. We kept it for another day and they def put something in it so it doesn't brown. Fresh avocado will brown easily overnight. We got a quesadilla with just the shrimp and cheese and it was ok. I did order the queso but it tasted like nacho cheese. It was lighter than nacho cheese should have been (same colour as queso or at least close) but it def was not queso. We also got the chiwawa which was somewhat ok. A little plain if you ask me. Not sure if we will be back yet. read more

Food quality is bad and portion sizes have been reduced drastically. New to go containers are super narrow and contains very little protein and other toppings. Times are tough for everyone, but they should be embarrassed and ashamed of themselves. This is a quick way to lose customers, me being one of them. read more

A friend of mine went here twice and it is so good! I had at the time a vegan patty burrito since I didn't eat meat and it was so delicious! I have to take my bf there to try read more

Did delivery for a second time and I ordered the quesadilla was very good! I recommend putting ranch on whatever you get so it's not dry. Great food! Will be ordering again. read more

Great establishment! The workers are very kind and gave generous portions, also the options are great too. I got dinner for my family here and everyone was very pleased with their food. We tried the bone-less wings, taco salad, chicken sandwiches, and quesadilla. Would recommend for kids as well because they have various kids meals for a decent price. read more
