“We drove right past it but THANK GOD we were able to turn around and get to it the food was heavenly juicy hot and suuuuper tasty the cook we spoke with was amazingly patient as he could see we wanted the entire menu but didn’t know how to order it lol the man was a saint and got us exactly what we wanted we were in such disbelief that such amazing tacos came from such a small spot but it’s clearly a top shelf establishment and will continuously recommend this place“

“I’ve been coming to this small business for about 3/4 years now and although it’s just a taco truck I know enough that all I have to do is pick up my order and eat it at my house or enjoy it with my partner at the nearby park. I’m not gonna make a review about the “environment” of a taco truck and make them feel obligated to my seating needs for that I’ll just to a RESTAURANT it’s a perfect grab and go. The staff is very friendly and hard working people, for as busy as they get their customer service is consistently great. I want to mention how hard it is to find authentic AL PASTOR TACOS that are supposed to be made like how they make it here. The tortilla is always fresh, the meat is seasoned perfectly and you can tell by the color on the meat and the salsa verde is also perfect if you are into spicy fresh homemade salsa just the right texture not watery like others that I’ve had around the area.“

“I’ve dined here several times and I love it! I’m giving it 4 stars for Service because sometimes the margaritas are perfect, sometimes they’re too sweet and sometimes too tart. Their margaritas are not consistent. Which is sad, especially for a Mexican restaurant. Other than that, the food is delicious! The service and ambiance is nice. I will continue to eat here but I really wish they fix the margarita issue. Do some bartender re-training or something. I would not mind seeing new food items either. Try it out! The food is delicious!!“

“I recently tried the jerk chicken burrito bowl at Guac Time, and it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were bold and perfectly balanced, with the jerk chicken being tender, juicy, and well-seasoned. The combination of fresh ingredients, including perfectly cooked rice, beans, and a medley of vibrant toppings, made every bite satisfying. The portion size was generous, and the presentation was spot on. If you’re looking for a flavorful, filling meal, the jerk chicken burrito bowl at Guac Time is a must-try! Highly recommend it!“

“This place thrives mainly on takeout but has a fully functional and pleasant dining space. The food here is very good with a large variety of options. I had tacos as appetizers, and fajitas as main course - all were delicious. Whatever my friends ordered was also very good. Service was good and attentive. The place is BYOB so that makes things convenient too. It's never crowded, so it's a nice quiet place to dine in. Would definitely go there and try out the rest of the menu.“

“Amazing amazing amazing!! The authentic Mexican food from this local joint managed to impress us.. we tried the veggie burrito, cheese flautas and mushroom huraches.. each dish was better than the other. The sauces and compliments were yummy. This joint is mostly for take out because there was not much place to sit inside. We are definitely visiting again!
Vegetarian options: Mushroom, cheese or veggie options available under most categories except tacos.“

“We ordered from Tacos Victoria for the first time today and were very impressed. There are plenty of Mexican restaurants around and I am not even that crazy about Mexican food but Tacos Victoria's food was fantastic! Very delicious and flavorful. We ordered a spicy chicken burrito and cheese enchilada.“

“My daughter and I came across this place. Although it took a while to find inside the mall the food was amazing. It was a little food kiosk located on the 1st floor at Newport mall. It's a little pricey but worth every buck! Our tounges were definitely satisfied ? if your at the mall and want a light bite this is a place to stop by!!! You won't regret it ?“

“Located in the bustling center of Jersey Heights, this spot has some prime Mexican food!
We ordered a couple of the burrito options (chorizo & steak). The burrito meals contain 2 burritos, but we were not prepared for 2 full size burritos…and at $15 per order it is a great deal.
The burritos were spot on, I loved my chorizo burrito. Was fairly greasy so you know it is legit. The chips and salsa were just average, the chips were pretty thin and not like Taqueria Downtown’s.
Would definitely recommend for a lunch or dinner option.“

“LOVE THIS PLACE! I would love to eat here more but it's soooo popular it can be hard getting a table. Really good margaritas. Also great for catering when feeding a film crew! I have had some happy workmates recently after a Downtown Taqueria spread!“

“Really good food, made by really good people.
Tbh, I was surprised that I discovered this place so late, I've been living in the city for 5+ years now. But I'm really glad I found it. 💛
This is a perfect place for those lazy afternoons when you don't wanna cook, yet eat good food. You can eat as many tacos you want, and they all will be fresh and taste really authentic.“

“Came here for lunch with my friends and was pleasantly surprised. Staff is super friendly. Small mom and pop shop pumping out amazing food. I got a torta and it was amazing. Soft bread and packed. It was a bit messy to eat but there was a lot in them. Salsa options were great as well. Green was my favorite. Great value. Will definitely come back to try more items.“

“I don't say this about many places, but the fried chicken here is really good. Nice crispy exterior with a juicy interior. There are also so many menu options to choose from. Not to mention the buy 1 get one deal you can get if you order online. The customer service is also excellent. I can here so often we're on a first name basis.“

“Love this place! They have some of the best food in jersey city. Every time i call or come in they know who i am, and are always very nice. And what i like the most about them is that they have great Mexican food and great chinese food, so i always have alot of different choices to choose from lol...“
“A great Mexican option for our area. It's not just basic good. Although it may not look like your traditional Mexican restaurant, the food coming out of that kitchen is top notch stuff. The staff working there is very nice and accommodating. They are are always smiling and look happy serving you such great meals. This is definitely an Easter egg in McGinley Square.“

“I've been eating here for years... The BEST mole enchiladas and breakfast burrito in the area. I've done lots of tests and keep coming back here. Their mole is made in house by an auntie (part of the family). It has incredible flavor - I get the cheese enchilada (it's Mexican so grilled not gooey). Their rice and beans are super flavorful. I honestly rate Mexican places based on how good their rice and beans are (like if you can't do the basics, then ...). And then their breakfast burritos. Perfect blend of egg, potato, cheese, onion/peppers, and spices. It's a reasonable size so you can enjoy it without being in a food coma. I love the family atmosphere here - truly a mom and pop. Only recently have I started dining in - and wow, the food is even better! This place has amazing food. Skip the burritos and go for the mole enchiladas. With the exception of their breakfast burritos - don't forget to try those too (offered all day). I always forget to take photos....“

“Such a great mom and pop restuarant that has both delicious Salvadorian and Mexican food. Went here with friends and we each tried a mix of their pupusas, they took a bit to come out but they were clearly made fresh and well worth the wait. We also had their tacos and guacamole, so flavorful and filling. Our server was attentive and very kind. Great reasonable prices for the high quality. Limited indoor seating but can take it to go. Will definitely be returning“

“I have only ordered delivery from Bubby’s. The food is delicious and I am obsessed with the Vampiro Juice 🧛♀️ The salsa verde is beautifully made. The tres leches is to die for. Today they forgot my tres leches in my Seamlwss order. I called to request it be sent over because I’m I love with it and they sent someone over shortly after. Wonderful people, wonderful food. Love you, Bubby’s!!!“
