“Me and my friend arrived there 3 minutes before closing and Margarita was telling us that she will still take our order. That was soo sweet of her. We ordered two burritos, and a softdrink. We each paid 12-13$ for all of that food. The Chefs were also saying hi and were super happy to take our orders.Burritos were 10/10. fresh salad, fresh beans, fresh avocados, good spices, good sauces. Super warm and super filling. Definitely worth it and definitely will go again!!!!Dietary restrictions: I have a Cilantro allergy and it was no problem to change my order“

“I enjoyed a amazing dinner with outstanding service. The food was fresh, full of flavor, filling and plated to perfection. I had a guava margarita with a tagin rim that I wanted to drink by the gallon. The atmosphere is cozy yet spacious, romantic and luxurious. Even the bathroom is beautiful with plenty of mirrors. The service was quick, attentive and so friendly. Special thanks to the server who took our pictures and even put the lights back on for there photo corner. Order the grilled octopus!!!!!!!“

“It boils down to 1 question: “Is this better than Chipotle?” Deep down, that’s what every customer will ask themselves when they think about going back after the first visit. In terms of variance, yes — it does offer a more diverse food selection. In terms of taste + QUANTITY, I can get more food (that tastes equally as good) at Chipotle. My advice to the owner is to weight what a normal Bubbakoo bowl vs a Chipotle bowl. In no world should the Bubbakoo bowl weigh less. After all, Chipotle is the more trusted brand. I personally felt like I could get better value at Chipotle. I’ll give Bubbakoo the edge on cleanliness and service. The staff is nicer, but I’m here for the food.“

“I tried the taco Tuesday all you can eat. I was at Firestone getting my car repaired and was hungry for a meal. I was about to stop by kumo for an all you can eat before seeing casa villa on Tuesday had an all you can eat too! I felt that what are the odds I'm here on a Tuesday I better stop by. The staff was incredibly nice, the food was so fresh, everything was so good. The tacos came fast and hot, the wait staff ask immediately if you want more. I personally became self conscious (my own fault not theirs, they're so nice) of how many tacos I was eating but it was just so good, I couldn't help myself. I highly recommend it My favorite ended up being the steak ( I know how boring) Cecina was my second favorite Shrimp was also super good I usually love Al pastor but I recently had tacos #1 in nyc which set the bar too high now. This Al pastor is very good tho, nice fruit touch with bits of pineapple One other amazing thing is they don't skimp on the meat and filling. I've been to too many spots where they skimp and these guys make quality tacos every single time regardless if it's your first order or 10th“

“Been coming to this place for 20 years idc what anyone says.. the shredded beef taco and chicken tacos with the salsa verde are good as hell. This isnt sloppy soggy heavy mexican food. Fresh flavors and textures working together. Crispy taco with marinated shredded beef topped with cool lettuce and tomato also crumbled queso fresca with the chiltomate sauce It’s absolute perfection! Rice and beans hit too not overly salted and perfectly cooked. They give you generous portions and chips and salsa with your order. The inside is very cute for dining… they have updated it since- used to be mostly takeout and like 2 tables inside. its very clean has a good vibe. good for anyone wanting grab a bite to eat alone and not feel weird lol. and in the nice weather they a few small tables outside!“

“Amazing food, friendly service. Their burritos are the best. Serving size is perfect: it's not so large that you'll be stuffing your face but just adequate to be full. Hungry folks might want to get a side of tacos! Hot tip: they can make any item with any of the meats listed in the "taco" section (i.e. you're not restricted to just carne or chicken). Highly recommend adobado pork burrito ?. It actually opens at 5pm instead of what Google Maps says.“

“Service was great when we ate at the restaurant and also in the past when placing takeout orders. The food was also very good, but prices seemed high for the amount of food received. If they lowered prices by a third they would have gotten 5 stars. If you have a small appetite this is a great place to eat.Kid-friendliness: Staff was very nice and accommodating.“

“Truly authentic Mexican food in every way (including the chips which is a super part of a true Mexican meal). Lots of variety (don't sleep on the adobaba pork). I kind of want to give it 4.5 stars because of how often they mess up our delivery order (9 out of 10 times) but I can't drop them to 4 starts because the food is too good.“
