“🌯 Bubbakoo’s Burritos – Hazlet, NJ

🌮 Food & Variety
Bubbakoo’s Burritos offers a great selection of Mexican-style food, including burritos, bowls, quesadillas, tacos, nachos, fries, and drinks. There are plenty of options to customize your meal based on your preferences.

🍗 What I Ordered
I ordered the Double Protein Chicken Bowl, which came loaded with brown rice, beans, corn salsa, pico de gallo, lettuce, and my choice of sauce. The chicken was well cooked, tender, and flavorful. Since it was a double-protein bowl, the portion of chicken was generous and definitely made the bowl filling.

🏠 Ambience & Seating
The restaurant was clean, neat, and well maintained. There is also ample seating space, making it convenient for both quick meals and dining in.

😊 Service
The staff was friendly, patient, and prepared the order exactly as requested. The overall service was pleasant and efficient.

💰 Value
The portion size was definitely worth the $14 price, especially with the double protein option. The bowl was filling and had a good balance of protein, rice, vegetables, and toppings.

⭐ Overall
A satisfying experience with good food, generous portions, friendly service, and a clean dining area. I’ll definitely be visiting Bubbakoo’s again soon! 🌯👍“

“horrible experience & poor food quality. we ordered $90 of food tonight. first when trying to order i asked about the birria tacos in their Facebook post. the woman who answered told me that they dont call them birria tacos, they are called barbacoa. they required us to order from uber eats even though they advertise in town delivery. so we did. the tortillas with green sauce is rico's version of a chalupa. it was inedible. we ordered a steak chimichanga - it was very fatty. the quesadilla was delivered in the form of a taco. somehow an order for nachos we put in uber eats, was deleted. when we called to let them know somethings were not correct in the order and we were really dissapointed we were told this is not taco bell. at the end of the unhelpful conversation about their poor service and food quality, the final response was, "You got everything you deserved." very unprofessional. all around a bad experience. the food was not good. we love to support local businesses but will not be back to Rico Taco Mex 2.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“If I could give this zero stars I would. Absolutely HORRIFIC. The burrito my husband got tasted like literal chemicals. I tasted 1 black bean and it tasted like it was melted in burnt plastic. It literally could taste it for an hour in my mouth. He was dry heaving in the parking lot after 3 bites. He also was never greeted after 5 minutes of him standing there. I asked for a refund, not to make another toxic chemical burrito and they said they couldn’t do that. The best they can do is make him something else. I don’t want something else from your trash of an establishment. Totally unacceptable. Take my advice and go to another location.“

“We just wanted to send a big thank you to the Englishtown Moe’s! You helped make a lot of teachers very happy today!!!! The taco bar was delicious and an absolute hit! We will definitely be back! Thanks for all of your help and hard work accommodating us! Much gratitude- The Ravine Drive Elementary School PTO“
