    Chicken enchilada
    Andrea B.

    I've water at Ruben's twice now and it needs to become a part of our regular rotation. Seriously super authentic and delicious Mexican food!! Came in today for some food for Cinco de Mayo. Everyone in the kitchen was so nice and a couple people who were there I could tell were regulars. I got the sope!! I was originally going to order 3 but the hostess told me they're huge. One was plenty! Glad she advised me not to order 3. LOL...although they were so good I may have tried to finish 3. My wife got the chicken quesadilla. The chicken had a perfect char on it and was so flavorful. My daughter got the chicken enchilada. It was also really good and wasn't super saucy like some can be but had great flavor. I also enjoyed the picked carrots and both the red and green salsa on my sope. Everything is so delicious here!! I don't see them on any Door Dash Uber eats etc but it's worth going in and ordering or eating in.

    Every time I've ordered tacos from here, they've been perfect. Their food is so good! The chicken tacos could easily compete with tacos from LA. The place is clean and there are plenty of tables to sit at! I got chicken tacos, a bean and cheese burrito and horchata. The horchata is really really good. The tacos are so flavorful and the red salsa is my favorite. It's perfectly spicy but not too hot. And everything about the burrito was exactly what I wanted! I will definitely be ordering from them from now on!

    The chicken tacos are beyond dry. The rojo salsa is delicious though. The staff is friendly but I loathe paying for subpar food.

    Best carne asada taco I ever had. The taquitos combo meal was waaayyyy too expensive though. Great taco Tuesday deals!

Unfortunately, that wasn't the experience we had this time around. The tacos were pretty soggy and lacked the texture that apparently made them stand out before. She even joked that they must've had a different cook working that day. The food wasn't bad, but it also didn't live up to the expectations that were set. The consommé was decent and the portions were generous, but overall the flavor was just average. If I were rating this visit alone, it would probably be closer to a 3/5. That said, I'm giving it a 4/5 because my girlfriend has had a much better experience here before and swears it's usually better than what we received. The other factor is the price. For a restaurant where you order at the counter, grab your number, and seat yourself, it feels a bit expensive for what you get. I'd be willing to give it another shot since it sounds like consistency may be the issue, but based on this visit, it didn't quite live up to the hype.

The portions were ok, and the margarita was large and refreshing and good actually, but I had to ask for it 3x, but the food itself was only okay. Nothing we ordered stood out enough to make us want to return. We sat down and it wasn't busy. 15 min later they came and took our order. The hostess that came to us first was attentive he was really the only one. The biggest disappointment was the customer service. Throughout our entire visit, there was very little attention from all staff. We rarely saw our server, drinks went unrefilled longer than they should have, and there was no effort to check in and see how our meal was. I never once was asked if I would like another margarita. Hospitality can make a huge difference, and unfortunately it was lacking here. This is huge for me in a sit down. The restaurant has a fun sports-bar atmosphere with plenty of TVs, but the restroom also needed attention and wasn't as clean as expected. Overall, not a terrible experience, but not one I'd go out of my way to repeat at all. There are too many great Mexican restaurants in the area for this one to make it back onto my regular rotation. Probably won't be returning at all.

With a $260.00 Bill I showed the lady at checkout she told me that was old she got the manager and the manager argued with me told me that that was not their logo or their sign that they've never had that price clearly you could see from the pictures I'm posting that it is the same location they've just moved some things around. We didn't order any alcohol and I asked for them to at least assist with something and they refused. Our server did not check on us we had to pile up our plates to the side on the table next to us and within moments of eating we had to run to the restroom The lady in the stall next to me ran in with explosive diarrhea too. I mean I suppose if I had drank any alcohol which I don't that price of $35.99 would be reasonable I think I was more offended that the manager argued with me and said that that wasn't there's when the logo in the writing and everything is the same and I got this photo directly from there Google page he could've offered even five dollars to make it right would've been sufficient won't be going back.

The burrito is as big as my arm. The sample platter which had nachos, taquitos, and cheese sticks was super delicious. The chips they used for nachos was totally thicker than the ones they give as an appetizer which I found interesting. A little bummer that they weren't willing to give refills on the chips and salsa. I feel like they did it bottomless when we went the last year. Perhaps times are tough. It also feels like service quality dipped since last year. Staff were less friendly and excited. We were there around 6:30 and we were pretty much the only customer there when we arrived. So it was a bit hard to stomach on how slow water refills were. We asked for water once and the server said sure and went straight to lunch lol
