“Honestly, couldn’t ask for better food. It’s genuinely changed my life. I’m gonna be a Taco Bell fan for life. Cheesy bean and rice burrito, chefs kiss. I don’t know how they’re able to create heavenly food within 5 minutes. I am eternally grateful. The only thing they’re missing is a few Michelin Stars.“

“If you want real tacos come here. I ordered the tacos al pastor and when they were ready I went to add spice, cilantro, and onion to my liking. The spice is strong haha. I love the food, my brother ordered tacos birrias. I highly recommend you go to this restaurant the next time you crave tacos/Mexican food!“

“Just tried this place out to see if the high rating was real or not. The real reason is we hoped the positive reviews were true. We got tacos with rice and beans. Simple dish, but it's smell and taste were through the roof perfection. Three warm savory corn tortillas for each and each delectable. It reminded me of the best Mexican street food, only better, I had a seat! The staff is basically all family and THAT alone says something about the care behind every dish.“

“Totally enjoyed the fish tacos and nachos, especially knowing they have a dedicated fryer for gluten free people like me.“

“My husband and I go here every Friday afternoon for a lunch date while the kids are in school. This bubbakoos in Mt. Olive always has the best people working in there. They are incredibly helpful and always greet everyone who walks in the door. We LOVE this place.“

“I walked in out of the blue. The place is quiet and unassuming. I was greeted as I approached the counter. They were very, very welcoming. After a little bit it was like we knew each other well. They made me feel very comfortable. The food was very good with lots of flavor. My order came out relatively quick. We talked and I watched the game (MTY vs AME). I had a great experience and was very impressed with this place. I highly recommend anyone give it a try. Also, prices are very good and worth every penny!“

“Best Mexican food. Food is always fresh an hot I have been going to Don Jose for many years At first I was going to the Don Jose in East Hanover before they opened Netting location. Netcong has a bar best Margartia's never had a complaint. Staff very friendly! It's my favorite Mexican Restaurant.“

“Lugar encantador con buen servicio y deliciosa cómoda mexicana .“

“The pozole roja was the best I've had in a while. The past 3 restaurants were nowhere near as good as 5 brothers pozole. The pork tacos, the same. Pork was crispy and well made. Everything impressed me. My new go to for Mexican food in the area.“

“I really like this restaurant. I like to sit at the tables and seats next to the windows where I can see everything that happens in the corner...the waitresses are very friendly and the service is fast. The coffee is always fresh. I really enjoy the simplicity of the place, without culinary pretensions, Mexican food for Mexicans, simple and delicious in my opinion, without DRAMA (by the way, I'm Colombian). The prices are definitely very reasonable.
One star reviews are a joke! What are you expecting to find all these 'Drama queens' and 'Karens' in a small traditional Mexican restaurant in Dover NJ? The people are definitely toast!“

“Es bueno y agradable el lugar buena atención“

“Delicious authentic Mexican cuisine! If you are looking for a taste of Mexico then look no further, Brenda Lee is it. I have found the food quality and taste to be consistently high and the service is great. It is my go to place for Mexican food.“

“I was looking for a place to hold a small(er) afternoon party for about 60 friends & family members, and McQ’s came highly recommended for great food, wonderful atmosphere, and top notch service. They did not disappoint. The general manager, Alexis was a pleasure to work with, and was helpful with menu choices, and whatever additional asks I had. (A table area for a display, AV hook-up for a slide presentation, and complimentary drink “coupons” for my guests. The entire staff (including the kitchen) was friendly, and determined to make this a fun (and delicious) event. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I give them 5 stars 🌟 out of 5.“

“Delicious stuffed arepitas! I’ve been looking for a place like this =]“

I don’t think I’ve ever had more flavorful food at Taco Bell before. It’s usually just my go to for quick, cheap, protein-filled food, but this was actually good food.“
