I stopped by California Tortilla completely on a whim--I drove past, my stomach was RUMBLING, and I had to turn around. I'm a pescatarian, so I was glad to see blackened fish on the menu. I ordered the Gator Tater Burrito and Bowl, which comes with roasted potato hash, black beans, queso, tortilla crisps, Gator sauce (medium), and pico de gallo. I swapped the grilled mesquite chicken for blackened fish, and honestly, it was better than anything I've had from Chipotle or Moe's. The service was solid--nothing over the top, but efficient and respectful. Exactly what you want. The place itself was quiet, with only one other table occupied, and even they were SUPER quiet, which made for a really relaxed atmosphere. Overall, this was a great surprise stop. I'd definitely come back and order something with their HOT gator sauce because the medium wasn't hot at all. read more

They are supposed to close at 9pm. I arrived at 8:45pm and the doors were locked while the staff was inside mopping. If you're going to advertise a closing time, stick to it. read more

eh kinda cold. good flavors and good potential just wasn't my favorite today, sadly. the rice was a lil crunchy and chicken undercooked :/ read more

California Tortilla - custom burrito bowl - Tex-Mex Near Me - Sicklerville, New Jersey

Today I was invited to have lunch with work colleagues at California Tortilla. This was a great choice because service was good, food was fresh, and there was ample seating. The four of us sat at one of the tables (they also have booths inside). It was pretty busy and there was another large group dining in also. Occasionally, people would drop in for takeout, as well. I ordered a California Screamin' bowl and made it a fresh deal with a side of chips and fountain drink. I thought it was pretty tasty; the queso sauce was really good. The gimmick here is the 'Wall of Flame' 75 different hot sauces. The sauces are rated by heat factor. I thought it was neat to be able to try different kinds that I'm not familiar with. Today I tried the WUJU original hot sauce "sweet heat" (very good!) I'd never heard of California Tortilla before. Today I learned it's a regional chain with locations in PA, MD, DC, VA, WV, SC, KA, and one lone restaurant in Stamford, CT. Oh, and now NJ. The Sicklerville location is one of the two California Tortilla eateries in New Jersey. I had a good experience there today, but I am curious to see some of the low ratings last month. I thought service was very good when I went, but that perhaps that's because I went during lunch rush. I could see coming back here again. read more

Better than Chipotle? Darn straight. This place offers a wonderful menu of burritos, bowls, and tacos. Everything is freshly made. I ordered the taco tornado burrito. I ordered it extra spicy. That meant extra jalapenos! Still not spicy enough, but it packed a little bit of a kick. My son ordered the bacon chicken bowl. Very nice mix, large pieces of chicken, and nice bacon pieces. He said it was awesome. My wife ordered the fajitas which she really enjoyed. We got guac and chips on the side. The show was the wall of hot sauces. Oh my, what fun. All the sauces were labeled in order of their heat from one to 10. I got the pyromaniac, which was a 10. You can take the sauces to your table, or you can put them in a small container to take to your table. With drinks, our order came to $40 which is not bad for three people. I would definitely recommend coming here for five star experience. The place is very clean and well kept. We really enjoyed our visit there, and may go again. This was actually our second foray there and it may become a Chipotle, pancheros replacement. read more

Unsanitary workers. She sneezed in her hand twice behind the food line and didn't even wash her hands. She just grabbed four gloves and walked back to the food. Even her husband/Co worker tried to get her to wash her hands. The food is very microwave-ish and not tasty. I will never return here to eat. read more

Food was absolutely wonderful! ordered two burritos, the screamin & club. Ingredients were beyond fresh. Order was made promptly , did not have to wait even though there was other customers ordering. Was extremely clean and staff very friendly. Owner Aaron was welcoming and even offered a hot sauce to compliment my burrito . I enjoy the extra touches to our eating experience . He went beyond just being an owner, made us feel welcome. Entire staff was friendly . would give this location 10 stars. thank you for the great service and ambiance . Will come back more thanks to him. A++ read more

I really like coming here. The food is always good, and fresh, however today was not pleasant. It took over 20 min to get my food. Fast casual should be faster. There weren't even that many people there. Crazy read more

California Tortilla - Tex-Mex Near Me - Sicklerville, New Jersey

This is a bootleg chipotle. Its a couple dollars cheaper but thats because theres no damn meat in it. I ordered the new tornado burrito with the screamin sauce but the only spicy was the jalapeno. If you are hungry for a burrito and dont feel like driving to chipotle, this is a last resort. read more

California Tortilla - Tornado screamin something - Tex-Mex Near Me - Sicklerville, New Jersey

If we could give this a zero star rating we would. The food looked promising the marketing made it seem fresh and on par with Chipotle and Moe's so we were excited to see who would come up on top. Sadly this jawn is at the bottom of the barrel and their taco neighbors across the way (The one with the Bell) puts this food order to shame. At a whopping $41 give or take a few pennies-4 street tacos; one burrito; one kids cheese quesadilla; one side of chips and nacho cheese fresh out of the can and one side of chips and what appeared to be guacamole and more or less tasted of bland baby food and the side of rice and black beans which was conveniently left out of our pick up order bag...you can rest assured we will not be returning anytime soon. If the overall taste of fish is something you're after or the lack of seasoning and spices in of all things 'fresh Mex' is your bag-by all means rape your wallet here. So disappointing. Really hoped for a better outcome. Sad. Just sad. Looks like we're ordering a pizza now for dinner. Ugh. read more

Should have just gone to chipotle would have been better and cheaper. Me and my husband are new to the area so we decided to give this restaurant a try. I'm sorry but it was awful. My husband said he got about 5 pieces of meat in his burrito other than that basically all rice and it just tasted awful overall. Mine was probably just as bad. Very little meat that was extremely bland and then "fajita veggies" that were so raw and undercooked I had to pick them out. Other than that they use sooo much rice as filler. The "Korean bbq sauce" tasted like thick soy sauce. Sooo bad. Literally don't understand the posted pictures because our food didn't look anything like that. My post is long because I've never despised a place like this. -10 sorry not sorry. read more

Came here twice and it's been consistently the same , just ok, not great. It is definitely WAY over priced for the amount of food you get. The vegetables fajita bowl for $10 was underwhelming and not even that much food with Rice (which was hard and not even cooked or over cooked) tiny pieces of pepper and onions, not filling at all and no tortillas or chips on the side. I will not come here again as many other places have better Mexican and good prices for the amount of food you get. read more

New ownership! Sooo much better! Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely be back! Amazing service and food! read more

My second time here. I had the nachos with ground beef taco meat. Everything was on the nachos except for the queso which was in a separate container. It was nice and hot. The only thing I think should be improved is the taco meat. It was basically just ground beef with little or no seasoning. I would have preferred it if it was in a seasoned sauce. Otherwise the food was good. read more

The food at California Tortilla is definitely fresher and more flavorful than similar chains (ie Moes or Chipotle). I absolutely love the hot sauce wall and find myself trying all different types every time I eat here. I have been here quite a few times since it opened this past summer but I am always disappointed in their prices. I always order the taco meal (comes with 2 tacos, drink, and a small side), my husband always orders just a burrito (not the meal, just one burrito) and my daughter orders the kids burrito. I don't know why but I am always surprised that our meal costs almost $30! They have a rewards card which is great because every few months I can get $5 off my order. There are no refills on the small bag of tortilla chips that you pay for with your meal and they are often stale. I will always choose California Tortilla over its competitors in the Sicklerville area, however, I am not happy with spending a fortune on a couple of tacos and a burrito. read more

As a Californian in New Jersey, I absolutely had to give "California Tortilla" a try. This place is cute and decent, but I'm not sure it's worthy of bearing the name of California in its name. I had the fajitas with steak & chicken. The 2 skinny strips of steak were very chewy and grisly, and the 2 strips of chicken were dry and not very flavorful. The side rice was very dry, and the black beans were undercooked. The flour tortilla was the saving grace, and I wish they had given me more of them. The sauce wall with many different choices of sauces and a guidebook is innovative. This place isn't terrible, but honestly, I would really rather go to that other chain fast-fresh burrito place instead (and pray I don't get food poisoning :b). read more

I like the food at California Tortilla better than similar chains. I find the chicken actually tastes like chicken. I also like the addition of fish tacos. I like the chips and queso, too. Why three stars? Frankly, every time I visit this location I am completely turned off by the staff. Unfriendly order taker and less than thrilled to be there additional staff. read more

The pros: the staff were extremely friendly and attentive. I think the franchise owner helped us out and as first timers that left a great impression. My fiancée went a second time and said the same. They have a wall full of hot sauces which I'm sure could meet any hot sauce fanatics needs. Food seemed fresh and facility was very clean. The cons:the food lacked flavor in my opinion and seemed a little odd. I ordered a salad and found it disappointing. Again everything fresh though, it had big tomato wedges instead of more of a pico de gallo feel which would be ideal for a Mexican salad. The dressing really had no flavor. read more

California Tortilla and Panchero's are definitely my two favorite Mexican places for "fast" dining. This was my second time at this location and I loved it! On Mondays you can spin the wheel you get free food/coupons. The first time, I got a burrito bowl. It was okay. But this time, I got the blackened chicken mango salad. DELISH!!! I loved it. The chicken was very good and not dry. I got it with ranch instead of their recommended dressing. They also have a whole wall of different types of hot sauces which is awesome. We got the chips and queso too. Delish. But Panchero's has the best queso. read more

So I received a card in the mail to try one of their chef's specials for free...Needless to say I was surprised at the food...I ordered a fish, beans, cheese and spinach tortilla and I took it for take out.. When I got the food home....Needless to say it was awesome! !! The flavors and the fish is what had me sold...plus I love spinach.... I don't do too many chain restaurants but I will definitely be back to this one read more

California Tortilla - Tortilla...or what is left of it!!! - Tex-Mex Near Me - Sicklerville, New Jersey

I will never go to this place again. The manager, possibly even the owner was so rude and defensive when I called to ask a couple of questions just so I could have a clear understanding of what i could use the buy one get one free coupon on in the future since we were told one of the items wasn't an entree. The way he spoke to me and the things he said were very out of line. Plus the food wasn't even ready when we called ahead. They hadn't even started to make it yet! read more

I have visited every Mexican restaurant in Sicklerville. I'm not a huge fan of Mexican food, but my girlfriend craves it from time-to-time. First off, the California Tortilla is one of the cleanest inside. There is a wall stacked with a numerous selection of hot sauces (which is something I do love about Mexican food) and it is well-organized and clean. However, the bottle I opened had an expiration date 2 months prior to me opening it. I wasn't too concerned about this and not sure anyone else should be either. I tried the turkey chilly accompanied with "How big is your stinger?" Hot sauce. Lol the name sold me haha. There sauce is labeled at a 9 as being very spicy to beware. In my opinion, it was the right amount of spice to add to the chili and it had a unique sweetness that was amazing. My lady chick had a pork burrito, which was the size of a football. It was full of flavor, according to her. She said it was much tastier than the one Chipotle used to offer. If you are craving a quick serving of Mexican food and you're in Sicklerville, California Tortilla is your best choice. read more

California Tortilla - Blackened fish bowl burrito with guacamole and "How Big Is Your Stinger" hot sauce.....mmmm spice boy! - Tex-Mex Near Me - Sicklerville, New Jersey

Staff is very helpful and friendly. I had a small Korean BBQ bowl with chicken, small container of guacamole and chips and a drink, and my companion had one taco. This came to slightly over $14 for what basically constituted a snack. My bowl was about the maximum spicy I could handle, and was decent tasting, but it was high sodium. The guacamole is the best I've ever had. My daughter thought her small taco was good. Judge for yourself if the quality justifies the cost. For me, it does not. read more

The bowls are tasty and the portions are generous. I will be coming back and i like the different options

Love this place. Great Food. I wish one could be opened in Hammonton NJ. THANK YOU for Great Food.

We've been coming here since shortly after they opened and have never been disappointed. The staff is always friendly and our order has never been wrong unlike fast food places. It tends to take a little longer but the food is always made fresh, noticeably not microwaved or sitting for hours. Our whole family loves spicy food and we love the wall of hot sauce! We highly recommend it if you want fresher, more flavorful food then Chipotle. read more

Tried this place for the first time today. The place was clean and everyone behind the counter was friendly. My son and I went and both got the same thing. It was the California Screamin burrito. It was a burrito with blackened chicken, rice, queso, fajita veggies, California Screamin sauce, and salsa. It tasted good but I think I would have enjoyed it better with grilled chicken. I feel like the blackened chicken over powered the burrito. I would have liked some char on the fajita veggies as well. I got rice and beans as a fresh deal side. A fresh deal is $2.99 more to add a side and a drink. The hot sauce wall is a great addition that adds a uniqueness to this restaurant. You can try any of them to use on your meal. We paid arpund $22.00 for the two of us. Overall I was satisfied with my lunch and would return again to try something else. read more

The food here is fine, it's on par with other California Tortilla locations I've visited over the years. The hot sauce wall is of course great and the service is good. Inside is pretty clean, although it always feels empty no matter how many other people are eating there. I suppose that's a good thing. I really do love the burrito elito rewards club. Every so many dollars you spend, you get perks, and there are birthday perks as well. You have to download the app which is a bit odd but it works, and I like free, tasty food. You can combo your food with a drink and chips/dip for about $11-$12 ish, which is great. You'll never leave here on an empty stomach, and the ingredients are a bit different than what you'd find at Chipotle or other counter service burrito joint. They do use lettuce in a lot of their food which is fine, I'm not crazy over it but it works for them and doesn't taste half bad. Don't forget the free WiFi! I like eating here and I will continue to come here. read more

California Tortilla is definitely the best TexMex chains there is. Everything has a lot more flavor than the other chains, tastes fresh and they have some extras which I love. I usually get the 2 Taco Combo. The mesquite chicken is really good and more flavorful than the normal grilled chicken you get other places. I tried the blackened chicken but didn't like it as much. I like that you get chips and a side...The guacamole is also really good. My husband got a burrito (ground beef, all the fixins, plus mango salsa inside). It was delicious. The hot sauce wall was also really cool! We'll def be back soon. read more

california tortilla is wonderfully put together. I love it so much. I can never get enough burritos and queso with chips from you. Your queso makes my heart melt just like cheesy fun. I will dearly miss you due to certain qurentine related times. sadly since you are so delicious your lines get kind of long which makes me disappointed. and i think to myself are these burritos really worth the wait. my answer is always yes. you are wonderful. thank you read more

Blacken Chicken is almost always dry. The people behind the food bar are SO slow to make your order even when it's not busy - no on in line. I use to frequent the Cali Tort in Glen Mills so I was excited when this restaurant opened in my neighborhood. But after my last few visits I won't be returning. Do your tummy justice by going down the street to Chipotle where they are a well oiled mean, green, assembly line machine. read more

I really like that you can pick different choices/options that they have like fresh veggies and sides. The staff was very helpful and friendly ...wall of hot sauce is awesome. Compared to the Mexican chains only a few miles apart I think this one tops them all.... read more

It is walking distance from my house and since I like to support local business I wanted to try it out. The flavors and portions were not good as Chipotle's. First time I went there, there was a miscommunication on my order and they had the wrong burritos made. So instead of taking them back like what restaurants usually do, they let me keep those 2 burritos on top of the 2 correct ones they made. So 4 burritos for the price of 2! Good customer service read more

Wow,what a difference! It's under new ownership,the owner Tom is hands on,and very polite..food is excellent as always and the staff is very friendly read more

I had the two taco meal which wasn't bad. It came with two hard tacos, chips, guacamole, and a drink. Plenty of chips to share with my daughter. My daughter had the burrito special for Monday. It's one of the better places to eat when looking for fast food. The one in West Chester area is the nicest one we have been too. But, this place was nice. read more

Great place to eat if you're in the mood for Mexican food. The place is always clean and the food is amazing. Plus they make your order right in front of you instead of hiding in the back so you see what goes in your order and how it's being made. I highly recommend the bbq chicken quesadillas. So yummy. read more

Food is always fresh. A little pricey since they charge for everything like chips & salsa. Tuesday's are bogo tacos and very good. Korean bbq & California screamin are my fav. read more
