And the service is great, which is hard to come by these days. It’s clearly a family-run place where Everyone cares about the quality. Also impeccably clean!“

“Amazing authentic Mexican food. So delicious and the service is fantastic. Sometimes there is a wait but totally worth it.“

“Not flashy, simple, deli kind of set up. almost hole in the wall. My first impression was....ummm..naa..but since my wife picked up the place, I kind of kept quiet and was willing to try it. Boy was I wrong!! This place turned out to be AMAZING. Probably one of the best Mexican food we have had. Ask for a burrito with BBQ sauce inside it.“

“We order from here all of the time they are always fresh and today we ordered churros and it came as strawberry churros and strawberry ice cream for Valentine’s Day! It was such a nice surprise! I love eating in the establishment but we often order through door dash and they are always perfect“

“The food tasted great. The service here was good. Wish the best of luck to Edgar and Melliase.“

“Delicious food coupled with an enjoyable atmosphere! The staff is both pleasant and attentive! It has become a favorite of ours! 👍“

“Edit: Raising this from 1 to 4 star after speaking with the owner. It seems this was an outlier situation and they were very kind and receptive.

We came in at 8:20 PM (place closes at 9). The woman behind the counter seemed very detached and exhausted so I tried to be sympathetic. My burrito was a magnificent slop, not rolled properly at all. The soda fountain was out of CO2, so all the soda was flat - I made a comment but the employee didn't care even though she had charged me for the drink. The food wasn't bad but nothing remarkable or exciting.“

“Great experience,really good food,drinks,very good service and a beautiful place and decorations 😍“

“Place is authentic and phenomenal food. Sometimes it’s a wait for your food, sometimes there’s no walkins available, that happens at great restaurants. Food is phenomenal, get the chimichanga….. whoever said should come with a disclaimer about no walkins- gtfo. It’s a small popular restaurant, want do you expect? The red carpet? Pure entitlement.“

“Tacos here are the best in the area! They never disappoint and I’m always full with the 3 tacos that come in a plate! My favorite ones are the pastor tacos but the shrimp ones are really good too! The 3 leches cake and their aguas frescas are recommended too if you have a sweet tooth like me!“

“Very friendly staff, & delicious food. Parking's a little bit. VERY GOOD! unique but worth the park. Very reasonably priced, Very low key, clean environment inside. VERY GOOD!“

“The staff was friendly and efficient. The place was clean and comfortable. The food was tasty, and the portions were decent. It's a bit pricey for a burrito lunch (35 bucks for 2 people), but almost every eatery falls into that category nowadays.“

You know me, the restaurant has to be clean. The restaurant was spotless. Beautiful location at The Galleria. Parking is free at The Galleria. I will definitely return.“

“I am a Gringo, but kind of an expert with Mexican Food.

We ate here Sunday, 10/06 just before the finale of the N.J. Hispanic Film Fest conclusion at the The Vogel Theater.
The place is small, tight, but the food is good!
Food orders were chicken tacos (Tacos de Pollo) and chicken sopes (Sopes de Pollo). Both very good, filled with a lot of seasoned chicken.Tortillas are hand made.Salsa was good, as well as the side of Guacamole; more than enough for two people. Prices were fair. And the place is BYOB. I would recommend this for a quick, reasonably priced, authentic Mexican meal.
Bathroom was updated and fairly clean. Service was good!

This was our second time eating here.“

“Tried this place for the first time sorry it took me so long to go. It was delicious. The owner, Tino was so nice. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable knowing it was our first time there, but it will not be our last we will be regulars. We’ve told all our neighbors. Yum“

“Excellent service! Staff was very attentive, our server, Alessandra was amazing!She was so personable and knowledgeable about meals. Food had huge portions and absolutely delicious. Everything from the drinks, to the appetizers to the meal.“

“I was greeted by Tyleek as soon as I walked in the door, my order was a little annoying but he smiled made my meals exactly how I asked and also chatted with me while making the food. Nedene was at the register to ring me up and she was just as nice as Tyleek. The two of them are awesome and I hope they are working the next time I go back.“

“Food is always great. Service always with a smile, and half the price of the over-hyped competitors down the street.“

“My only issue was the ordering. First, when I sign into the app it keeps on sending me a link to click to get back into the app, which is annoying. Second, I clicked through online based on a coupon and started ordering, but when I signed in the promo disappeared and I had to keep logging out and in to get it. The app needs to be improved.“

“Felt like home small a lil on the tight tables space. But the food felt like home. Awesome definitely recommend.“

“We had our first Bubbakoo’s last night and it was better than Chipotle. And I LOVE Chipotle. I have a new favorite though. Can’t wait for next time!“

“(Translated by Google) The girls are very nice. The food is tasty, sometimes very spicy ... sometimes it is overdone with seasonings. Well nobody is perfect. Anyway, they treat you well.(Original)Son muy amables las muchachas. La comida es sabrosa, algunas veces muy picante..hay veces la pasan de condimentos. Bueno nadie es perfecto. En fin, te tratan bien.“

“Good place, variety in Mexican food, they deliver, located right on the main road, the rib tacos are excellent, the menu is very varied and the prices are totally affordable, there is no parking but you can leave your vehicle in front of this store. The attention of the staff is acceptable.“

“I call this place “Street food” it gives me that street food feeling when I come here and eat. I have been here a few times and I usually order variety of food like a tamale and two flautas, usually more than one itemToday I bought a pre-made chorizo con huevo torta and tamales, the torta was very delicious, the tamales were ok.“

“Stoped in today! Everything was delicious! Amanda at the bar was excellent!“

“The service is out standing . Our waitress Danielle is a real sweet heart . Danielle goes over and above the call of duty to make sure we enjoy our drinks and meal every time we come in for dinner . I highly recommend.Escondidos in freehold . See you again soon Danielle !“

“I want to give them one star for service because of the young lady at the register, but 5 stars for the man who served us and the lady who cleared the table. Those two were courteous and friendly. The young lady at the register was rude when giving me my change. I gave her a $20 bill, she returned $7.10 by throwing it on the counter. I was shocked. I told my coworker who was with me (he had already stepped away from the counter). His response was yes she was rude (to him too). He paid with a credit card, so she didn't have any money to throw at him, but had an attitude taking his order. I guess we were not the right color for her (we're both different races). If I'm in that area again, I don't think I would patronize this restaurant again. I'm still baffled because I was my usual cheery self when ordering. While my coworker was ordering, I was trying to figure out the menu and what to get. As he finished, I asked him what he got, he said a crunch (or something like that) and I decided I would get tacos. I asked a question about how many tacos because I thought it was the usual 3 that you get at other restaurants. When I was told, it's one taco, I said, oh okay, I would like 2 please. I asked for the sauce on the side. Is that the reason she was rude? I'm still confused by the rudeness. I watched her after that being nice to customers (of her race) who were seated (she was wiping tables then). Smh.“

“Juanito's is one of my favorite restaurants when getting Mexican food. Always a good meal. Unfortunately, they add an additional 4% to your bill when paying by credit card. It hurts me to start trying other Mexican restaurants in the area, as there are several, but I will start doing this as I view this fee as an additional tax. I'm taxed enough. Several restaurants in the area started to sneak in these fees. If everyone committed to avoiding these restaurants, you would see the fees go away.“

“We ordered Cinco de Mayo catering and it was phenomenal! The food was so fresh and the flavors were insane. My only complaint is we wanted more! The staff was over accommodating, they helped me carry all of the food outside of Bell Works to my car in the parking lot even when they were getting ready to close. Another staff member also came out and explained all of the food items so I knew what was what. Us and our guests were so impressed and we will be back. Don’t pass this place up for solid, fresh and bright tasting food!“

“Authentic is the exact word for this place! Not one place comes close to this!“

“Great and flavorful pan dulce. They offer a wide variety, such as the ojos de buey, conchas, pan de muerto, and bigotes. The bread here is notches above your typical pan dulce, with great texture, while being wonderfully spiced and aromatic, and best served directly from the cooling rack to your plate. There's tasty, hot coffee to go with your bread, plus they also have a full kitchen, with a whiteboard of daily specials and a full menu, offering such specialties as mole poblano with hand-made tortillas.“
