“GREAT food GREAT staff. Whether you eat in or get it to go if you like Mexican food it's the place to go.“

“Been going to this location for a couple years now. Always loved it with the service and food, but lately it hasn’t been it. The food is still dope, but the wait time is awful now. I had to wait more than 30 minutes the last couple times i went, when just a few months ago, it would only take 10-15 minutes for my order to be ready. New staff or management or something is causing this issue.“

“Nacho Bae has a special place in our hearts. So much so that we come from around an hour away just for the food, atmosphere, and amazing service. Muhammad and Arwa gave us exceptional service and frequently came buy to ensure everything was ok. Their energy and willingness to help was great! The food was fresh and tasted much better than anywhere I have been to. The store atmosphere was great as well. Nice music and nice decor. I’ll be coming again to nacho bae and this is one of the top 5 restaurants I have been to all thanks to the food and arwa and Muhammad!“

Also the tres leches was some of the best I’ve ever had 🤤“

“Great local Mexican food with authentic flavor and big portion sizes. We definitely ordered more than we expected.
We had quesabirria, assorted tacos, tres leches, and the watermelon mint agua fresh. The agua fresca is made fresh and was literally the most refreshing drink I ever had in my life.“

“We eat here once a week, faithfully. Actually because we have such a big order, we order it for delivery to Piscataway. I ate there twice in the restaurant and was HOOKED! The flavors are so DELICIOUS! We’ve have our favorite menu items and a nice variety. Hands down best place to eat!“

“Excelent and good customer service.“

“I ate at the Monroe store today. I had never been at a Buubakoos before and did not know what to expect. I had the pork burrito and it was off the hook. The place was spotless and the service was spot on. The manager came over and introduced himself as John and asked if everything was satisfactory, and it was more than satisfactory. You would think John was the owner not just the manager, he cared as if was his own business. It was good to see that. I will be back for sure, my new go to place.“

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

“Best authentic mexican food around. The place is super clean and the people ate very nice with smiles on their faces. Being that we love the food so much and we go quite often I decided to learn Spanish and I communicated what food we wanted in Spanish and to my surprise we got exactly what i asked for. Anyway, I highly recommend this place as the food is so fresh and full of flavor! We get the Empanadas and Huaraches with a side of rice/beans.“

“los taquitos de birria más ricos que he probado!!!“

“had dinner with friends tonight. the service and atmosphere were outstanding and the food was excellent. Oh and the tamales are the best. I'll be going back well done Carlos and staff.“

“Ordering pickup from El Mexicano is so GREAT! Starting with the AMAZING customer service when calling to order our food. The young lady answers very politely, understands our order and gets it right every-time! It is ready is a very timely manner. It is carefully packed, with salsas and chips. Most orders include a little salad, limes, and yummy chiles. We love the enchiladas verdes, pollo empanizado (breaded chicken cutlet). The arroz and fríjoles are DELICIOUS! The carnitas are so YUMMY too! Definitely recommend!“

“I read through some of the comments and they were about MY grandma, the owner of the restaurant. Someone said that she was a he. And another said she was from somewhere she was not from! She is from MEXICO. People just make me mad sometimes when do stuff like that. If you do not know the gender of someone you don't even know just say 'they' that easy. But after all great food.“

“Muy buen servicio, la comida con el mejor sabor en New Jersey.“

“Had a great time here . Food was very good. Enjoyed the atmosphere and comfort.,waiters were pleasant and friendly and quick.“

“We had our son's high school graduation dinner here and it was amazing!! I met with Alfredo to come up with a prefix menu for our family gathering. From the appetizer of chicken empanada with all the fixings, to filled burritos of every kind, and the amazing atmosphere, this was an amazing day! Alfredo and his staff were attentive to us and we left with our bellies full of authentic Mexican meals!! We can't wait to go back and enjoy this local restaurant and share more memories and enjoy delicious food!“

“Been telling myself forever to try this place and finally stopped in. Staff was incredibly friendly! The Gorditas were phenomenal and I had the absolute spiciest burrito I’ve ever had in my life that I just could not stop eating! Can’t wait to go back, 6/5 stars!“

“I had the steak burrito at the Piscataway location today and it did not disappoint. Excellent food and the nachos with Nutella are fire. They had so many fresh made salsa and bottled hot sauce to put on my burrito. I think I found my new Mexican spot. Can't wait to try more of the menu. Highly recommend. 10/10“

“My order was ready when I got to the restaurant. My meal was prepared exactly as ordered. The food was not hot(just warm). I had to put it in my microwave before eating it. The portion for my grilled chicken bowl was not as large as usual. Everything however, tasted good I will still be ordering from this restaurant again however I will place my order in the store instead of online.“

“This one girl who I met was chill glad they have "great" waiter 10/10??The Alfredo was great. The people are pretty chill and and food has nice flavor and pretty good variety. I wanna say the wait time was great and price wasn't too much for a meal.“

“Absolutely delicious. We ordered chicken tacos, el pastor tacos and birria tacos and all were amazing. The consome for the birria was full of flavor. I also enjoyed a delicious horchata which was not overly sweet, it was just right. I cant wait to come back and explore the menu some more.“

“The best Mexican food and service!!!“

“Excelente lugar familiar. Disfrútalo“

“Muy rica la comida y excelente servicio“

“Great experience. Tried to place my order, but was basically told what to get. I wanted an empinada one way, the lady told me the right way. Empinada was great. Burrito was HUGE and tasty, two meals. Highly recommend!“

“I love this place. Hand made tortillas are really tasty. There isn’t any other lace like this in miles! A local gem! Me gusta mucho y lo recomiendo por encima de los otros que hay alrededor“

“The best nachos I’ve ever had in my life! Plus amazing tacos that don’t need to be covered half a pound of shredded cheddar to be delicious. This place is legit!“

“Brewed Awakening is the perfect spot for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The food is consistently delicious, and some of my favorites include the BLT Sandwich (always made to perfection), the omelettes, and their Apple Caramel Butter Latte—a delightful seasonal treat. I first discovered the latte through a social media post a few weeks ago, and now Brewed Awakening has become my go-to spot every Sunday for a relaxing meal. The service is always warm and welcoming. Annie, the owner, often makes an appearance on the floor, either serving or checking in with guests to ensure they’re enjoying their visit. Her kindness and genuine hospitality make the experience even more special. I highly recommend stopping by Brewed Awakening for a delicious meal and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. You won’t be disappointed!“

“It was my first time ordering food from here. I ordered take out, the service was decent. It Felt like i was being dismissed pretty quick. The food was good, it had great taste. And the atmosphere of the place was nice too.
However, I do think the prices are a bit high. I wasn’t expecting to pay $37 for my order.“

“Buena atencion bariedad de platos tipicos de centro america“

“Just ate an absolutely delicious burrito. My dad had a bowl. Everything was amazing BUT, THE CARMAL CHURROS AND THE GUAVA EMPANADA were just the best I've ever had. My mouth is watering for those churros. Can't go wrong eating here. Im from Miami but asoon as im in the area again here is where im eating.“

“Flavorful birria tacos and consome. Loaded burrito was tasty as well. We also got the horchata and Mexican street corn that was generously covered in cheese. Overall, they use appropriate amount of seasonings that enhanced the flavors in each item including the horchata. The consome was not thick or oily.“

“This is one of the best Mexican restaurants in the area! The food is delicious and very authentic. The ambiance and decorations make you feel like you are visiting Mexico. The staff are super friendly too. Overall a great experience.

Parking: When I come at off hours (11:00-3:00 PM) it's easy to find parking on the street. Probably not that easy during the evening rush.

Wheelchair accessibility: There's a door right off the street. There should be no problems.“

“Food is fresh and delicious with so many options to choose from. Chips and salsa are free with each meal ( you don’t have to pay for them), the staff is wonderful and the place is clean! Queso is a must!!“

“Recommend: tilapia tacos*, salsa verde, campenchanosGood: tamales, barbacoa tacosOk: chicken flautas, arabes tacos, lengua (tongue) tacos, tripa tacos*Probably would have been a 3 star rating if we didn't like the tilapia tacos so much. They were definitely the favorite. The fish was tender and nicely seasoned.The seasoning and cook on other things were a little hit or miss. Barbacoa had great taste but too salty, arabes were dry, lengua was disappointingly dry and bland. The salsa verde was used liberally to save many of the tacos.The flautas were nice and crispy but the chicken inside was dry.The tripe had some crunchy bits that some people might like but I found them tough.The campenchanos in the flour tortilla were also a bit salty but I liked how soft the tortilla was.The tamales had nice texture, but the cheese stick inside was strange for me.“

“Their flavor is very good, they have a great Mexican flavor and their food options are varied. An excellent place to eat Mexican food.

Wheelchair accessibility: As it does not have steps, it is an excellent option for people who use wheelchairs since access is very easy and the staff is very friendly.“
