My family and I LOVE Freppe's!! They have such fresh food that is not comparable to any Mexican place in the area- it's also a fun atmosphere in a great location. It's family friendly and great for kids. Highly recommend!! read more

Freppe's has been our Go-To restaurant since moving to Fanwood in 2018! Their food is consistently delicious, the managers and staff are friendly and accommodating, and the price is right. We are now continually disappointed by tex mex food that is NOT from Freppe's! Even Freppe's To-Go is incredible! Our favorite dishes include: Queso Fundito with Chorizo Tacos Los Cabos (Literally the best shrimp tacos ever) Their special Birra Tacos (I may not be spelling that right- but they are slow cooked pulled beef with cheese wrapped in two fried soft corn tortillas, served with a cilantro sauce and the cooking liquid from the beef) Tortilla Soup Literally ANYTHING on their specials menu read more

What a great place! The food here is amazing and the portion size is great. My husband and I came here for a late lunch looking for some great Mexican food. We were both really happy with our choice coming here. The place is pretty big and has parking in the back but it's pretty limited parking. The second we walked in we could smell all the great food being cooked which is always a great sign. We ended up taking a seat outside. It was so hard to choose what to order off of the menu there really are so many great options on this menu. The waitress was friendly and helpful giving us some recommendations. We ended up ordering the nachos as an appetizer. We were so surprised when they came out there was heaps of nachos! We finished them all, so delicious! Both of our dishes were good but we were so full we had to take them home! Amazing food and service, we'll definitely be back! read more

I am visiting plainfeild and i was happy to find a little mexican american spot. The first thing i noticed here was the service. I have had rude people ever since i got here but not at Freppe's they were polite on the phone when i called in my order and even friendlier when i walked in to pick it up. The portion size was huge, 3 tacos with rice and beans sour cream (a huge dollop) and salsa. I could choose from 4 meats and mix and match. It was definitely american style, but very satisfying. The food scene here is scarce but i would definitely come here again. read more

Tasty texmex and friendly staff. Everthing is fresh and delicious complentary chips and dip.

I went there today for the first time. The service and food were amazing. The guacamole was made fresh to order at table side. The food was brought hot and was nicely spaced between appetizer and entree. read more

I've seen this place forever and never stopped. Popped in on a Friday night and it was busy! Good sign , it keeps the food fresh. Service was wonderful and the food was tasty. I got a virgin pina colada and it was delicious. I'd go back again. read more

Bought four taco platters, around $70 okay. Got home bit into my taco and got a prison shank in my mouth. Took out the huge thick plastic that was mixed in with my tacos , had to stop eating called freppes said I ordered at lunch so they couldn't give me a refund. Instead,' they'll give me free tacos next time, probably never going back so that won't help. Kathy said 'I'm sorry I get it' lol! DONT BE SORRY; BE CAREFUL. What a fucking joke read more

Great place. Really good food, large serving portions and truly authentic. Remember, this is BYOB. Quick service. Their hot sauce is amazing. Must try. read more

Blah! Maybe Tex mex just isn't my thing but the food was uninspiring and just not that flavorful.

Pretty good food - decent amount... service was good... atmosphere was casual and comfortable

First timer... I had the shrimp burrito and asked for mango salsa instead of the usual. They were accommodating. It was great. I also asked for a side of guac and it was delish. However is was in a small tin with the smallest portion I ever saw in a mexican restaurant. Lasted for a few bites. BYOB read more

Delicious, fresh and flavorful! We really enjoyed our take out meal from Freppes. Service is very friendly and helpful. They even helped my husband carry our large order out to his car. There was a ton of food. Everything came with a side of beans and rice. We ordered the sampler which came with four items: wings, flautas, quesadillas, and taquitos. All delicious. For meals we tried the baby back ribs, chicken fajitas, seafood enchiladas and steak a Mexico. Raving reviews from everyone! read more

Mediocre food. Not worth the hype. we got their tortilla soup, along with tacos and enchiladas. Try out cinco de mayo instead or go to highland park and check out el sol. read more

Server was perky but it took a long time to get our overcooked Fajitas. My wife asked for no carrots, because carrots are not part of Mexican cooking. They must pay restaurants to take carrots. Look at photo. Her dish was over half carrots. Dfq. The meat and seafood had no flavors marinated or cooked in, just salsa poured on top. A lot of food but not a lot of flavor. read more

Great Mexican restaurant. Been here many times everything they serve is good from the chimichanga to the burritos. Would strongly suggest this restaurant. read more

If you haven't been here, your a fool! The lines should be around the block. Everything is homemade, fresh to order. I've never had a bad meal. The sauces are complex and full of flavor. Excellent dishes, from ocean to land. Top quality. The service is friendly and attentive. This is a must for anyone that enjoys Tex-Mex and/or Latin American cuisine. read more

I would totally recommend coming here more Tex mex, they have a lot of options and the staff is very kind and understanding.

Delicious food and friendly service! I had the tableside guac and chile rellenos. Portions are generous and they are byob. Sat on the patio and enjoyed the late summer evening. Our server Olivia was delightful; knowledgeable about the menu and made our dining experience fun with her energy. Thank you! read more

We've been going here for about 2 years. It's our go to spot for dine in Mexican food (better than Mexico).

Food is very good and customer service is pleasant but one staff member stood out in particular to me. This staff members name is Cooper and he is a server. He was so kind to me and had excellent manners and was always here when needed. Recommend the restaurant and love the service from Cooper read more

Came back again. Party of 4 - great food, great service, staff is friendly and accommodating even when very busy as they were tonight, prices are reasonable and portion size are enough that many have enough to take home leftovers. My only knock on the place continues to be the loud music. We asked that it be turned down which it was but it seems to get loud again. Not over the top loud and am sure we'll come back but loud. The dishes were 2 specials - a tilapia based fish tacos with a great sauce; a chicken dish with shrimp bands great sauce. Both came with rice & beans. 2 dishes off the regular menu - delicious baby back ribs with terrific chili on the side, and cheese quesadilla, also terrific. I could have eaten any of these entrees or anything else on the menu & been happy but the tilapia tacos were really special read more

OMG deliciousness! We got empanadas and a wonderful fajitas mixed meat bowl. The food was fresh and tasty. The service was outstanding and the restaurant was neat and clean. This is not a fancy place. This is a great place to get great fresh food. Wow! read more

Fun place with an enjoyable atmosphere. The place is clean, and the decor lovely. The staff is SUPER friendly and attentive. It's worth coming back to this place just for the wonderful service. The chips could use more imagination, and the salsa more consistency and focus. The taco salad shell was crispy and light. Love the mostly Cuban music playing in the background! read more

Just had dinner there, normally it is great, tonight it was not so good Two chicken chimichangas the meat was burnt brought it to the waitress attention and she really didn't seem to care, any other restaurant would have taken it back! With that dont know if we will be going back with that type of service! Feeling dissatisfied!! read more

Absolutely love this place! My only complaint is something was too salty. Could've been the pork or the tomatillo sauce. Either way we still enjoyed and will surely be back! read more

As soon as my boyfriend and I walked in we were greeted very nicely by a few of the staff. We were seated and placed the bottle of wine we brought on our table. Our waiter was as excited to see us bring a bottle as we were to drink it! The atmosphere confused me a bit in the beginning-but it all made complete sense by the time we left. It seemed too casual, and kind of reminded me of a take out only restaurant. Our waiter (who was amazing btw) mentioned a few of the best selling/favorite items on the menu. We split the chipotle pineapple wings for our appetizer. I ordered Mexican shrimp cocktail for my entree (because I wasn't too hungry). My boyfriend ordered chicken chimichanga. First off, everything was super FRESH, and steaming hot! The wings were incredible! They were loaded with this amazing spicy (with a hint of sweetness) sauce. I could not get enough of the sauce and used it to dip my chips in after we finished the wings. My Mexican shrimp cocktail was served in a wine glass, which looked small, but I was completely full after only getting half way through (got the other half wrapped up). It was so fresh and reminded me of ceviche. So delicious! My boyfriends chimichanga looked/tasted amazing!! He was VERY satisfied with it especially because it was loaded with chicken and not rice, like some places do. Bottom line, all the food was seasoned perfectly, was extremely fresh, and definitely left me wanting more. Our waiter was so nice I couldn't believe it! He was so exited about everything we ordered, and when he saw how much we liked the food it only made him happier! I was able to laugh out loud, and take pictures of my food without feeling foolish. At the end of the meal the atmosphere made perfect sense. This place is super laid back, with amazing food, period. No need to overlook or look into anything when coming here. Bring a bottle, taste the food, and it will all make sense. Our new date spot 100% read more

The best thing about NJ is the BYOB options in town. That said you can't go wrong with Freppes. Authentic Mexican food with a good presentation, great service and an amazing atmosphere. Doesn't hurt that the owner has an Olympic gold medalist as a regular as well. (Laurie Hernandez) watch for cameos. She was gracious signing a little girls autograph while being just one of the crowd. Great for groups and couples. Value can't be beat. I will return. read more

Came around opening time for lunch with 5 people. Pretty big parking lot, although easy to miss the entrance. Service was attentive and friendly. The food was very good. I had the burrito, which was tasty and not too salty like at other places. Sad they did not have guacamole at that time. You can bring your own alcohol to mix into their margarita mixes which is cool. For dessert, they have a cream stuffed churro which was also good! read more

The atmosphere was loud, cold, and bright. I think they need to decide what they're going for here. The atmosphere alone commands a much lower price fare. The food was average, and not quite warm enough. Portion sizes are not at all proportional to the cost. I think they would be better off ditching the wait staff, lowering prices and having counter service. read more

Excellent Tacos!! too full to eat all 3 but the chicken & steak were awesome. Asked which of 3 salsas I wanted. Very pleased with Med Verde NOTE: Service, $ and Ambience 5 Star read more

Being a vegetarian, tried out the enchillada/empanada combination platter. The stuffing along with the flavor of sauce was excellent. I was surprised to see the place very quiet during lunch time on Saturday. Hardly anyone around. Maybe this is more of a dinner place. Service was cordial and prompt as well. Would recommend it for a nice family outing if you are in the mood for Tex-Mex read more

My family and I have been coming to Freppe's since it opened and are huge fans.The food is incredible, the staff is awesome, and the portions are huge! It is always clean and festive. I love the music playing in the background, it gives the place such a happy feel. We have had numerous birthday parties in the upstairs party room because it is always a great experience. Recently, we had an ESPN viewing party at Freppe's for my sister Laurie Hernandez, a gymnast in the 2016 Olympic games. After traveling, Laurie always says she needs to come to Freppe's for a chicken chimichanga! This place is a gem, and the owner is pretty cool too! Check it out, you wont be disappointed. read more

Completely did not realize this place was here all this time! This is not a bad option when looking for take out in the neighborhood! I decided to try out some of the appetizers for my first time, so I ordered the empanadas and the pineapple chipotle wings that I saw some great reviews on here for. The wings were cooked nicely with the meat falling right off the bone. The sauce was good, although I was hoping for some more spice on the wings. The empanadas were very good and had a great flavor to them. The place has what seems to be a great atmosphere for a group of friends to kick back some tequila shots. There is also a nice outdoor seating area for days with nice weather. I look forward to trying more from this place! read more

What a huge disappointment. Starting with the reservationists who didn't reserve a table that we called for and confirmed. 1. Appetizer - ground beef empanadas. This was the only bright spot as they were delicious. All downhill from there though Dinner- We both ordered the burrito and taco combo. The chicken in the taco was so overlooked and hard we couldn't finish The burrito lacked any real authentic Mexican flavor and the rice and beans barely had any flavor at all. Unfortunate experience for such a highly reviewed establishment. We won't return read more

Ordered take out for five. Tortillas for fajitas weren't put in our bag so we had to send someone back but whatever. The food all looked great, but the fajitas had broccoli, carrots and zucchini in the mix. It looked more like Chinese stir fry. The steak was good though. Chorizo in my chimichanga was a little dry but I enjoyed my meal (chimichanga and tamale combo) otherwise. Everyone (save the person who ordered the bizarre fajitas) was generally satisfied. However, shortly after everyone was finished, 3 out of 5 of us noticed mild gastrointestinal discomfort. Fast forward 3 hours and now I'm visiting the bathroom every 15 minutes and my wife (fajita eater) is still uncomfortable. Won't be going back, which is unfortunate because the area needs more good Mexican food. read more

My friends and I went here for the first time a few weeks ago. I always am looking for quality Tex Mex, and Freppe's did not disappoint. I had the special: a shrimp and mango quesadilla with all of the requisite sides. The quesadilla was absolutely delicious! At first, I thought the mango might be too sweet, but it complemented the other ingredients quite nicely. My friends and I were very satisfied with our meals. It's great that Freppe's is a BYOB establishment because the prices are so reasonable for entrees that even an added bottle of wine or six pack of beer won't break the bank. I highly recommend checking out Freppe's if you are in the mood for great Tex Mex. read more

I've been to Freppe's for dinner a couple of times. The food is very good but the dining room is nothing special. I guess it is very cantina like. Plenty of parking behind the restaurant. They really shine with the take out food we have gotten from them for lunch. Nice large portions, hot and tasty. They have Mexican Coke with real cane sugar and some other different drinks. I recommend that you give Freppe's a try. read more
