    Tacos were decent (I had the shrimp, Buffalo chicken and veggie) the best of the three was the Buffalo chicken. My wife ordered the veggie burrito. It was a bit dry so we ordered a side of sour cream. With that being said, the burrito was the best thing I had (adding sour cream and some cholula sauce) I didn’t really have anything special.

    Burrito was very good. Pricing is super fair. The customer service was a 4/10. Woman was barefoot on the counter cleaning with little kids running around behind the counter. Not what you want to see in the food industry.

    Great food ruined by horrible and rude customer service. As a first time customer, was treated passive aggressively and condescendingly. One extra star for the great burrito, not sure if I will return due to the girls behind the counter being straight up rude teenagers with attitude problems which completely ruined the entire experience. Shame to see such a great place with great food get ruined with poor customer service.

    Went to Bubba's Burrito Bar on a recommendation. Ok. It is a quick lunch and yeah an extra star for the young lady server with the bling ring. Its fast food and fast order. You stand on line and either, check the website via cell phone QR or read the board above the counter. You order pay and get a receipt. 10 or so minutes later, your order is ready. Seating outside. Didn't see recycling bins but counter person took glass bottle saying they will recycle it. (not sure if that means 69 in the garbage) They even had a rain barrel with a spigot outside. Ramp and easy access from back. Little tables and chairs in a nook and cranny narrow backyard. It works. Take the food from the bags with the plastic silverware and the bottles of drink, chips and salsa, and your are all set to eat. The special was a corn chowder. It actually tasted pretty good. The Surf and Turf- recommended by a worker there, wrapped in a burrito cover, was to say, ok. The steak meat was very chewy, the rice sticky and the sauce eh. A place to go and get a lunch. Yeah, it was actually really busy with what seems to be a good following of people who enjoy this type of food. Ya know that old rhyme about beans, beans good for your heart, the more you eat... Well maybe being outside was a good idea after all. **)

    Experienced my first burrito 🌯 ever last week here, at the age of 29! 🤣 As someone who's gluten free, not many options. I found this place by accident thanks to coworkers. It was delicious, and they happily answered all my questions. Even shared my excitement! Will definitely be going again!

    This place is always on the money. If you’re hungry and in the mood for a burrito, look no further than Bubbas. Each and every time we order, the food is cooked to perfection and is responsibly priced. I would recommend ordering ahead as it can get quite busy but what do you expect from a place that has the best burritos in town.

    I ordered a Classic Steak Burrito. It had no flavor. They don't have any fresh sauces available to choose from. They only have Cholula's hot sauce. Very dissatisfied with the food. The restaurant is clean and has upbeat staff. But, again the food is no good.

    5.6.23 Our 1st time here, and we loved it. Inside is a very cool vibe with surf boards hanging overhead, small outdoor seating area, self-serve water, and soda area, and a long bar with a huge TV that can split into 4 screens. You walk up and order, once number is called you get your food, spicy sauce and extra silverware is by the soda machine. Our burritos were stuffed and filling. All 5 of us loved them. Friendly staff. We street parked.

    We only go there during the month of November for the Georgetown, which is basically Thanksgiving in a burrito. They only make it in November, so we don’t go the rest of the year this year. They seemed not up to the quality that they have been in the previous years. About 40% of the time I had bones in my burrito. Thank God I found them before I choked on them.

    Fun, inexpensive burrito bar. Lively atmosphere that's always buzzing at lunch time. I sat at the bar and was quickly served by the bartender. They have local and import drafts on tap, plus cocktails and seltzers if that's your thing. Pretty much a menu option for anybody. Park in the back in the lot. Be wary that it gets crowded on Saturdays.

    Delicious food here! Everything tastes amazing. The interior is super fun, great casual place to grab lunch solo or with a group! Very cool vibe inside. The staff is always super nice and the service never disappoints! Plus, literally everything is tasty! Highly recommend! It's definitely a local hotspot!

    Taste: 5/5 Portion Size: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Catering to Allergies: 5/5 Price: $10 per person Bubba's is the best. I even have a sticker on my computer from the place. Love the food, great service, and good atmosphere. Good prices and you can drive down to the beach for a great sunset if you take it to go. A unique experience and I've been coming back for years now.

    This was my first time here. I'm from North Carolina, and was visiting long island with my girlfriend, who grew up there. She said she used to go to Bubba's all the time and that it's really good. I got a chicken fajita burrito with only chicken and rice (boring, I know), and she got a shrimp burrito. When we first ordered, I looked at the receipt. My burrito was around 11 dollars. I thought that was very expensive. Then, we got our food. Let me tell you, that burrito was massive. The seasoning on the chicken was good, it was just a bit dry. That was probably my fault however, because I got it super plain. We also got a side order of chips and salsa. The child tasted a little stale, but they were still delicious. The salsa was incredible. I put some salsa in my burrito to make it less dry, and it added a whole new layer of flavor. The only somewhat big issue, was my girlfriend's burrito wasn't sealed properly so it was falling apart, so she had a bit of trouble eating it. Not a huge deal, as they had forks by the drink machine. Overall, great experience and I will definitely go back to Bubba's if I'm ever back in long island.

    Just had a burrito from bubbas for the first time and it was FANTASTIC. The guilt trip was delicious. The flavors and the textures all worked so well together. Can’t wait to try more things from the menu. Picked up my food to go and the atmosphere looks really chill. Wouldn’t mind sitting down to eat in one day.

    Had a couple of times I called in orders and they did not take down all of my order when I approached them about it. At check out at the bar. They a told me I didn't order when I clearly told them twice that I told the person on the phone I needed Something with my order twice, and they acknowledged it. But did not charge me for it. But also gave me a hard time when they gave me the item for free.

  • 5/5 Tyler M. 11 months ago on Google
    Disgustingly awesome. I’ll definitely be back. Generous portions left me unable to function, but I still managed to wobble next door for home made ice cream. Then I needed someone to drive us home. Highly recommend!

  • 3/5 Craig O. 6 months ago on Google
    Food is great, but...The prices have gone up and the portions have gone down. Also nickle and diming things now. Charging extra for paying with card. Ask to swap one meat for another in burrito and it was a 3.50 upcharge because "we don't substitute something like that". As per the arrogant kid behind the counter. Great place for take out but dumb simple things will push people away to local alternatives.

  • 2/5 Geoffrey W. 1 year ago on Google
    Lately since the owner has not been around the quality of the food has gone down significantly. I love Bubbas Burritos but lately when I have ordered they have come dry and tasteless. I will update my review when things are fixed but as of now I will leave it at a 2 star review

  • 1/5 Greg D. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered a very simple order. My wife repeated it multiple times, I get home only to find it’s not what she ordered. I called back they told me well this is what’s in the computer. I said ok well that’s wrong. She said they could credit us the one mistake or have it delivered. I wasn’t going to wait so I drove back another 20 Mins out of my way during rush hour to get the CORRECT item. Wasn’t offered a refund nor a apology. Now everyone’s food is cold and I’m out $30. We used to come here often. We won’t be back after the way we were treated. Unreal

    I got a cup when I asked for water, meanwhile everyone else got a bottle so I asked the blonde at the register if I can have a lid for it so it doesn’t spill and she disrespectfully told me to dump my drink out and buy a new cup because there is “no lids that fit that cup”. I should have just dumped the drink out on the floor where she was standing. Never have experienced such bad service before in my life.

  • 5/5 Steven W. 1 year ago on Google
    I am a big fan of Bubbas. My personal favorites are the bbq chicken quesedilla and the soft tacos, but the burritos and bowls are excellent as well. All standard fillings and toppings are available and everything is made fresh. Definitely not the most convenient place to eat in, but take out orders are generally finished quite fast and accurately. Prices are reasonable for the quality of food.

  • 5/5 Kyle F. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is great and lots of people around to help and make the food quick! Also a bar for great drinks. Good seating inside and outside but, let's be honest, the food is great with lots of nice options!

  • 4/5 sacha c. 2 years ago on Google
    If you like chipotle you will love this place more.

  • 5/5 Adam W. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely amazing burritos! Some of the more fun options are so tasty! Love the decor inside too.

  • 5/5 Adzua N. 2 years ago on Google
    This place has the best burritos I've ever had there moist the meat is delicious perfectly fried I had the fried chicken burrito my husband had the Brotato and they were perfect. I recommend it five stars every time we go to New York we try to go there.

  • 1/5 Kimberlie B. 2 years ago on Google
    Not impressed at all. The food is presented nicely but, has no flavor at all. My husband and I were both very disappointed.. I got the burrito bowl with grilled steak my husband had the chicken burrito both lacking flavor. Sad to say we will not be going back.

  • 5/5 capguild 2 years ago on Google
    The food here is unique. It expands the already fun burrito concept into a wonder if this works menu, that actually works. With unique options only found in elite establishments, this company clearly found its own path, featuring burritos, tacos, salads all with their own unique ingredients. A must have for sure. The prices are fair, and well worth the portion size.
