“First time here and I have to say the food is very good. In my opinion, better than Chipotle. Very tasty as well as Large portions.“

“Always delicious, always delectable! Every dish I've ever had, which is most of the dinner selections & many for lunch, is absolutely mouth watering. Generous portions of great food for a very reasonable price- what more can you ask for? You can get take out or stay in, where the music always sets the mood for Tex-Mex food. The owner is head chef & really knows how to whip up a satisfying & filling meal. I'm so fortunate this wonderful restaurant is close enough to be a regular!“

Buen servicio de a domicilio! Delicious and convenient food! Have had various items: burritos, wraps, quesadillas, platters, and desserts. Service is helpful for any special requests if needed. Delivery service is great as well!“

“My family just tried it today. The burritos were so goood and the kids loved their cheese empanada and churros. Thank you for coming to River Edge!!“

“happy hour! The food was excellent — you can tell it’s made by someone with authentic Spanish roots. Plenty of parking and the drinks were solid. The guacamole was a bit too salty for our taste, but overall we enjoyed it. For a family of four to eat enough during happy hour, expect to spend around $120, which was the only downside for us. Still a very good experience!“

“Our first time going to the Totowa location (met up with friends for lunch). Staff was very friendly and helpful - we decided to eat outside and they brought the food to us quickly. We had the tacos, regular bowl with carnitas and fajita bowl with steak and pina-mango drink. Food was very tasty and freshly made. Will come back to try El Pastor. Definitely recommend Sombrero Tacoria.“

“the breakfast food was good 👍🏽 😋“

“From the moment we walked past this place, we could SMELL how special it was… the alluring aroma was hard to stay away from. On a whim, we walked in and were warmly greeted by staff and invited to sit quite promptly despite being so busy. First impression: great!

Service was excellent, and ambiance was very warm. But the food… the food was the star of this place. If you ever pass by this place, PLEASE do yourselves the favor and try the banana oatmeal. It is a perfect treat to end your meal as a pseudo dessert. Anything from this menu will tantalize your tastebuds in a way that will keep you coming back for more.

“Great food, great service! My favorite restaurant by far. Get there early, as they get really busy quick.“

“Daniel was such a delightful waiter. Thank you for your wonderful service and smile.“

“Just got back from a business trip in Europe, which explains why I haven’t been to Bubakoos. Honestly, I was missing it more than I’d care to admit… So, when I finally swung by again, I was kinda hyped only to get hit with a letdown. The first visit was meh, and the next couple times? Still not it. The staff looked like they were still figuring out which end of the burrito is up. But then, today—boom. I walk in and there’s Jeffrey, holding it down behind the counter like some sort of burrito wizard. Seriously, shoutout to this guy. My bowl? Absolute fire. Fresh as hell and you could just tell someone actually cared making it. That’s what I expect from Bubakoos, you know? All the pieces, base, meat, toppings, just on point. Plus, the dude’s quick, nails it every time, super chill, and actually acts like he wants you there. I really hope I see more of Jeffrey (or at least someone who gets it like he does) because that’s the kind of vibe that keeps me coming back.

+1 for the joke he made: “Why should you never share a secret with a burrito?” “Because they tend to spill the beans.”“

“Food is delicious and affordable.“

“I got the fat Amy taco and it was huge and so good!! The wings though, the wings are on another level of amazing!!! This place is great!“

“Delicious for eating in or taking out. I prefer to eat at this beautiful restaurant if I have the time. As I vegetarian I appreciate the delicious veggie entrees, and the complementary chips and salsa are wonderful!“

“The phone order can be overwhelming and the rudeness isn’t intentional as the language barrier can be overwhelming but their food and kitchen is clean. Price effective for the town area. The food is fresh and seasoned. Plenty meal options to choose from as well.“

“Loved it! Guacamole with fried plantains was delicious. I had the steak with garlic shrimp, very good. My friends enjoyed their dishes too. Drinks were also great- I had the Cucumber Margarita with Don Julio & it was very refreshing on a hot summer day. Trendy atmosphere and cool murals. Service was wonderful- friendly, attentive & knowledgeable. Will definitely be back.“

“I give Chili's three stars for food because not a big Chili's fan, we go there for someone's birthday each year and there's no issues. Burger was blah. It's a change store restaurant so what you expect is what you got. Nothing bad.“

“Best service. Best food.“

“Wow!!! What can’t I not say about this place , the decor was incredible you can see that the place has history. I felt like going back home and changing my out for this place is amazing ! The service was Superb, we didn’t have to ask our waiter or waitress for anything we were constantly attended to . The food was great and the portions are are great. I went with my fiancé and daughter so I always order family style , so we had a little of everything . I know it’s cold out but I love a good frozen margarita and it was perfect . Also at the end Jolie , the owner/daughter of the owner also , offered us some free shots of RED CADILLAC TEQUILA , that’s made from them by them . It was very soothing . We’re actually gonna go back in a date night for the live music . Can’t wait !“

“me & my boyfriend always come here. the food is incredible, coffee OUTSTANDING and the workers are always sweet. definitely a place to check out!!! i’d recommend the mango shake, coffee, mexican tacos, burritos, their salmon bowl, and their taco salads!!“

“So just had an amazing night tonight thanks to Kevin and Joe at the bar! great service great drinks and overall this place is the best especially at the bar, but especially those two individuals have made it even better due to their dedication to customer service and satisfaction definitely coming back just because of them“

“great food and fast service. Friendly staff. amazing prices“

“amazing restaurant wrong neighborhood.“

“The cauliflower nachos were great except for the pineapple salsa. The pineapple salsa was in the tiny clear cup. It was so small that it barely went on four nachos. And there were some amazing cauliflower nachos! Maybe add a bit more salsas to bigger cups. Thanks! 😊“

“Buen ambiente me gusta siempre“

“The food is delicious and the service is fantastic. Very friendly and attentive staff. There is karaoke every night, which would be fine if it weren't so loud. We were there on a Sunday, very small crowd, and you would have thought you were in a nightclub. Totally unnecessary volume that made us rush to leave.

Beware of the Botella Magica. It's an absolutely delicious drink, but it's huge and will knock you on your butt. My suggestion is, let someone else drive if you have one.“

“Absolutely thrilled with my experience at the Cathedral Restaurant in Paterson! The tacos were a flavor explosion – the aroma alone was enough to captivate my senses. Conveniently located in the heart of Paterson with ample parking, it's a gem worth discovering. The customer service was top-notch, making the overall visit delightful. I can't recommend this place enough – a must-try for anyone craving a culinary adventure!“
