Bubbakoo's Burritos opens Philadelphia unit

June 19, 2019

Bubbakoo's Burritos, a Jersey Shore-based eatery that serves Mexican food fused with American flavor, has opened its first Philadelphia location. As the brand's 27th location, the unit located at 2550 Grant Ave., is its first outside of New Jersey, according to a company press release.
 
"Being on the Shore, we have acquired many loyal fans from Philadelphia who are begging us to bring Bubbakoo's closer to home," Paul Altero, Bubbakoo's co-owner and co-founder, said in the release. Today, we were able to make our customers' dreams a reality."
 
Although Altero admitted that there was a lot of competition in the nearly $23 billion market that makes up the Mexican limited-service restaurant industry, he said Bubbakoo's offers a menu that customers won't find anywhere else.

"Our offerings are different. There aren't a lot of places you're going to get a cooked-to-order hibachi steak and shrimp burrito," he said. "They're not a lot of places you are going to get a sriracha pork burrito. It's our offerings that are so unique, that bring customers back."

Company plans include four additional restaurants throughout Philadelphia in the coming years, according to the release.
