“Best and affordable vegan restaurant downtown.“

“We chose La Colina Mexican Cantina in Warren NJ to celebrate 3 birthdays on 4/5/25. We were a party of 12 & tried a few of the beautifully crafted cocktails that were out of this world and so tasty we had to order more. We began our feast with a couple of platters of Nachos El Gordo that were huge and absolutely delicious and went perfectly with the chosen wines, margaritas, and assorted cocktails our family ordered. The cocktails were of the beautiful quality that we've only seen on TV during cooking shows or restaurant series. The edible flowers and the smoke emitting drinks were amazing. We were served by a wonderfully friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive waitress. She was able to answer every question and had plenty of patience for our crowd who were amazed by the menu. Especially the "Smart" menus that detail each item at the flip of your finger. What an upscale & impressive touch that is. After we ordered our entrees we enjoyed more cocktails and had some time to talk and enjoy the unbelievable decor that seemed to have an endless amount of thought and class put into the decor of this authentic Cantina. The service was beyond excellent and our meals came out hot and enticing and as pleasing to the eyes as it was to our pallets. This was authentic delicious, beautiful meals that made the party seem like were were enjoying fantastic Cantina style food right in Mexico. I highly recommend the burritos, enchiladas, the Mexican Caesar salad, fajitas and I'm sure that rest of the menu has to be outstanding if everything the 12 of us had was that delicious. Besides the wonderful service, drinks, food and authentic atmosphere, topping the celebration off was when the owner came over to our table , introduced himself and made sure everything was as fabulous as possible. Believe me it was. Then the Head Chef came out and asked if everything up to our expectations to which we all agreed this place out did every single Mexican restaurant we've ever been to. I highly recommend La Colina in Warren NJ and I know you won't be disappointed in the food , atmosphere or the service. We surely will be back !!!!“

“We absolutely adore Mr. Cautus! Their food is simply delicious, and they make you feel like part of the family. We always bring our extended family along because there's plenty of space for everyone! We love trying all their specials—I think we’ve sampled just about everything on the menu! Our top picks are definitely the molcajete, shrimp a la diabla, and their amazing tacos. Overall, this place is fantastic, and I highly recommend it, especially for bigger gatherings. 🫶“

“Very tasty food and wonderful folks. Would definitely recommend to guys and ladies who cherish Mexican food.“

“Food is delicious, my favorite are the Tacos Al Pastor they really taste like authentic Mexican tacos! All staff is super friendly!“

“I recently had my daughter’s Bridal shower here and the food, drinks, service and atmosphere were excellent! I would definitely recommend Nom if you are looking to host a private event.“

“Ive been going here for years for mainly for the burritos. Originally it was for the breakfast burritos and now it's for their firebird lunch burrito. They are always tasty,huge and reasonably priced. Under $10 for a gigantic burrito? What is this 2010?“

“First time customer. I got two beef tortas and one chicken milanesa torta. The bread was fresh, meat tender and so flavorful with just the right amount of heat. Even the fries were well seasoned and crispy. The cheese, crema and avocado added balance to all the flavors. Excellent service and experience overall. I would have taken photos but I was too busy eating! This will become my Mexican food mainstay from now on.“

“My wife and I had an amazing dinner last night at Orale, our first visit. When we passed the place a few weeks ago and looked in, the staff beckoned us in with wide arms and smiles, and we decided we had to try it. Too bad we didn't go sooner! The flight of 3 guacamoles and 3 side sauces were distinctive and creative. We ordered the two special entrees: red snapper in a green mole and birria tacos with an authentic, delicious birria broth. This is authentic Mexican cuisine at its best, served by an extraordinarily friendly staff, and we will be back many times to try the rest of the menu!“

“Went here for dinner tonight the first time. Food was absolutely amazing. Stephanie was our host/server and she was fantastic at recommendations. Food was delicious. Will definitely make this my new Spanish go to restaurant. The Salvadorian Chicken Tamale was moist and dense, and the flavors mixed perfectly together. If you order the beef empanadas, ask them for their new homemade hot sauce. It's a perfect blend of sweet & heat to go with the pastry dough. Their plantains were a good addition of sweet to the dense of the meal. Their flan was the perfect size for a nice ending dessert to a very filling meal. Definitely a highly recommended place to get an excellent and very affordable meal.“

“yep good food ill come back for sure“

“The food is incredible. Top tier burritos, tacos and more. And even better than the food is the service, wish is always a pleasure. The owners are incredible dudes and really care about the customer. I’m always happy to give Tacoria my business“

“Fantastic food. Unbelievable lunch specials (until 2:30). Regular menu offers anything you might want, but it is a bit pricey and worth it. BYO. Last time we did that we shared our home made sangria with the staff. We made friends for life. This is going back to 1997 for that incident. Go! And enjoy“

“Buena atencion bariedad de platos tipicos de centro america“

“All I can say is that I will be extremely disappointed if they ever get rid of the honey siracha chicken!!! That was the best burrito I EVER had!! I told my husband that we are going there more now!! My mouth was in heaven!! Such a great flavor!! Try it! You will not be disappointed!!“

“Great drinks great food highly recommend“

“This meal was absolutely outstanding. The chicken sandwich was perfectly crispy, the bread was fresh, and every bite tasted homemade with real care. The restaurant delivered perfect quality across the board, from the flavorful food to the warm, welcoming atmosphere.“

“El peor restaurante en el área el encargado con la peor actitud un patán prepotente abusivo no recomiendo este lugar basura a nadie. we went to this place for dinner with the family. the manager with the worst attitude ever didn't give us the table because we were waiting for 1 more person we told him he was 3 minutes away and with he's terrible attitude said no and after that he got mad because we grab on of the menus and told us to move out the way from the bar. He was so disrespectful. I would never recommend this place to nobody.“

“We catered from this location through EZ Cater for 60 people and had an outstanding experience. The delivery was perfectly on time, portions were more than generous, and everything came with utensils and heat warmers. The chicken hot bar was delicious, and our guests loved it. The team set everything up upon delivery which was super helpful for us. We’re so glad we chose Qdoba — truly effortless!“

“Went for Cinco de Mayo with my boyfriend and our 1 year old and she loved the horchata and guacamole, we loved our food to ! 😋“

“8/10 I don't have any pics of the food I was hungry I Normally go to another place but decided to try this one. The steak wasn't really seasoned, the shrimp and the birra 10/10 well seasoned. Tastes amazing. I'll Def be returning“

“impeccable food and service and super cozy atmosphere“

“Try the beef soup or pozole. Great food and service.“

“Highly recommended! This place is great!“

“We recently celebrated a birthday here with loud and outlandish middle schoolers , oh boy - the birthday slayed !!!
The food was a smashing hit with quick service, satisfying unique orders for 10-12 kids. They delivered all the orders with zero errors which is commendable, given the commotion.
With a dozen or so rambunctious boys, chaos was just the beginning. I must say the staff graciously took housekeeping upon themselves when it ended.

I highly recommend the BH Bubbakoo’s location for your next party venue - they won’t disappoint !! 🥳“

“Good food friendly staff good location fresh food hot food“

“Delicious food and so nice and friendly! The best quesadilla’s I have ever had!!“

“Pretty good- A lot like chipotle!“

“I was there today for the first time and I loved the food, the place was very nice, it looked clean, a little noisy with the music very loud, but the very friendly girl turned it down but the food was very exquisite. I think I will return. I recommend tacos de birria su consume it was delicious ?“

“We ordered here from Door Dash and this was BY FAR the best Mexican we have had since we've lived within 10 miles from here. 👏🏼 Everything we had; mixed fajitas (steak and chicken), flautas, tamales, enchiladas, Oreo moose cake, and the Tres Leches cake... was outstanding, even through delivery! 100% recommend! Not to mention, they actually got out entire order correct, which is rare these days! Thank you!“

“I saw the very mixed reviews on El Tenampa and wanted to try for myself. Unfortunately, here I am with a mixed review. Overall the experience was good, the chilaquiles were spicy but incredibly delicious, the place is small but cozy. However, we also ordered the gorditas and those were incredibly greasy. I’m Mexican, I know gorditas are not exactly healthy food, but ours were soaked in oil. Having said that, I will definitely go back to try other menu items because the variety is great and the seasoning is on point!“

“Really hit the spot! Amazing coffee drinks, breakfast all day, and cute servers! ?“

“The food was great as well as the service. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Me llegó el deliver. Calentito. Rápido. Exelente servicio“

“Authentic Mexican food, not the fake stuff. Highly recommend the chicken flautas and enchiladas verdes, delicious and spicy. Got the guacamole and nachos de carne asada for the appetizer and it didn’t disappoint. I Will definitely be coming back here In no time!“

“The menu now has Mexican and items from south of the Mexican border! Absolutely loved it. The staff is very cordial.“

Incredible ?? and super friendly and fast service.They made me feel at home ?? for a while, thanks!(Original)Hace un año me fui de Argentina, hace un año no comía una milanesa así! Increíble ?? y la atención súper amable y rápida.Me hicieron sentir en casa ?? por un rato, gracias!“

“I come here often. It’s a good spot that has a lot of different varieties in central american food. The waitresses are extremely delightful and it’s overall a great place.

Parking: There are a couple of spots in front on the street and behind the restuarant they have free parking for customers!“

“Great. Great. Great. Unbelievable customer service. Family owned for many years. Ordering pizza and any other items is always a great experience. The secret is in their sauce! The sauce is so succulent. I would highly recommend this place to all my friends and family.“

“Did you know that this Latin food place is around Morristown? So delicious!! I'm glad I found the place. I was craving for rice and beans so I did a Google maps search. I didn't order any beans but this curry shrimp rice was amazing. The server asked me if liked spicy food and I said I loved it. She gave me a chilli sauce and I said it's not that spicy. Then she handed me a secret sauce she said was not for everyone. It was pretty good because I love spicy food. They have so many options is ridiculous. I will definitely go back to try other things. The rice came with a salad and a thousand Island sauce topped with avocado. I couldn't finish the dish because it was so filling. Definitely a local GEM. It's not fancy but that's what I like. I got the rice and a Pina colada drink with no alcohol. The drink was ok and price was expensive for a lunch. With tips I gave $30 which is kinda pricey for a lunch. I could've had a pizza and a soda for less than $10. But if you have the money to spend, I think this is a very good place try. The price was decent considering the quality I got. I definitely recommend it.“

“Omg the taco was beautiful with the limes on the side and the service was super friendly. When I bit into the taco I was amazed at how good it was 10x better than Taco Bell and Chipotle.

Parking: We just slid right into the driveway!

Kid-friendliness: They are always smiling to lids her and it was just a happy place.“

“La comida riquísima la atención excelente el lugar es acojedor y te sientes como en tu propia casa y i love it👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼“

“Yo pedí una orden de tacos sin cebolla y me los mandaron con Cebolla no ponen atención ni mierda es una tal abi“

“muy buena la comida lo recomiendo muy buen restaurante“

“Great food and great service at this excellent NJ diner. The omelettes, corned beef hash, home fries and bacon were all perfectly prepared. Service was friendly and quick. Prices are in line with other NJ diners. Highly recommend for breakfast!“

“The greatest place to have a delicious diner. My family and I experienced a very proffecional and lovely behavior for the Colombian waitresses, and very special environment that made us feel at home. The menu was small no to much to chose but perfectly exquisite having pretty much of the Colombian cuisine“
