Best fish tacos, hands down!! After moving our son into his campus at poly tech, the Mrs. and I were rather hungry. Out of the side of my eye, shining like the North Star, a neon Rubio's sign had me like a shiny fishing lure to a large mouth bass. After a sharp turn, and a finger gesture or two from fellow valley residents there I was parked on the curb to heaven. I knew exactly what I wanted so I went for it. Two classic first taco plate rolled off my tongue like Barry White singing to the ladies! My wife followed my lead and ordered the same. After indulging I'm some pickled jalapeños, our orders arrived. Warm tortillas wrapped around crispy fish fillets, topped with adequate cabbage and lime sauce met my taste buds like mamas home cookin'. Warm black beans and chips rounded out the order perfectly. Quantity was adequate, freshness was spot on, price was right, and company was excellent. What can I say? I like Rubio's fish tacos. read more

Rubio's Coastal Grill - Best fish tacos, hands down. - Mexican Near Me - Gilbert, Arizona

Went with family for sons birthday. We don't wear masks and have been rejected from other locations kindly. This experience was far from kind. A employee yells across the counter we need masks or have to leave. We mentioned we did not have any, and he yells back to leave. There was no accommodations, no one took time to tell us if there was other methods to order their food. When I informed the company directly of the incident it went completely ignored, still have yet to hear from them. I doubt I will ever return to any Rubio's even when they lift their silly policy. There are respectful ways to handle such situations and their employees have not received such training. Sad , because I loved their tacos. read more

This staff shortage is absolute bullshet! Get it together Rubio's and start the hiring process. You're in a state full of 7 million people and you have a staffing shortage??? Yeah someone isn't doing their job. Ironic when the business next to yours is fine and thriving at 7 pm on a Thursday. Clearly there is something wrong with management and district management. Won't be returning to this location until this nonsense is done with. read more

It is hit or miss for me at Rubio's. Some entrees are amazing and others are mediocre. The Cilantro Lime Quinoa Bowl with Shrimp was so-so. The $4 off 2 entrees coupon from Yelp helped lower the cost to $27 for the three of us. read more

I'll get to why the review is only 2 stars. The food is good, we come to Rubios often and the quality is pretty consistent. Always get their famous fish tacos, always. The reason this got only 2 stars is due to the absolutely disgusting smell emanating from the restrooms. It smelled like raw sewage, I saw 3 parties go from inside to seated outside because the smell is so bad. read more

I came in at 3:50 on Sunday. I had no idea. I stood there like a ... waiting workers walking right past me. No one said anything. So I asked you guys open? No we closed at 4. I look 3:58. Seriously 8 minutes and no one could say hey. We are closed. read more

I absolutely love Rubio's! My go to menu item is the Chicken California Bowl with loads of their toasted red salsa. You also can't go wrong with the fish tacos. Honestly, this place has something for everyone. There is steak, chicken and seafood options from top to bottom of the menu. My only complaint is the prices. It is a little pricey for most menu items. P.S. the churros are a must! read more

I don't write reviews often, but I felt this was necessary. We were greeted with the cashier smashing a fly with his hand and not washing it after. A family in front of us, had questions about some ingredients, due to one of their children having an allergy. The manager was not educated on the ingredients, nor did he act like he cared. In the 45 mins we were in the restaurant, not one table was wiped down. The workers walked by dirty tables at least 10x. Families were having to either wipe down the tables themselves, or go outside to eat, while dirty/empty tables sat inside. The trash was overflowing and the salsa area looked it hadn't been wiped down in many hours. My wife took my daughter to the restroom, and commented that it was filthy. We have eaten at this location a handful of times and will not be returning, unfortunately. read more

We haven't been to Rubio's for a while. Kinda a disappointment. We thought we would try taco Tuesday with the beer battered standard taco. Since the pandemic most people seem to order out or have Doordash or Uber Eats bring it to you. Therefore not too many people eat in the dining room and it doesn't get the attention it needs. The floors were dirty, the salsa bar had droppings all over, the napkin dispenser was empty, 1 lime came with 4 tacos, only 6 limes at the salsa bar. Somehow the taco Tuesday of old also tasted different and better. There are better and tastier taco shops to go to. We will be back next year to try again. read more

Me and my partner and my roommate we all went to Rubio's for a mahi-mahi burrito and the $.99 tacos so the food was good. We got our bill in and it being like $65. All three of us added it up and it came out to like 49. I do not recommend this location go to the location on Gilbert they have much better service and it's cleaner we asked to see the the mgr x2 and they still did not come out Horrible service read more

Delicious. First time in. I'll definitely be back!!! Had the Baja chicken burro. Others in my party thought the food was delicious also. read more

Quality is going down and prices are going up. This location needs a new management and new everything.

The counter, floors and tables were all so dirty...sticky...disgusting. I told the cashier there was something sticky and spilled on the counter in front of the register...he looked at it and shrugged. Never cleaned it while we were here. My fish taco tortilla was very cold. They have a sign up saying they are short staffed so I get things slip. However, owner should pay a company to come in and do deep clean. read more

The workers were on their phones, seemed like the food had been out for hours and nothing was "fresh".

Honestly completely love this place. I literally get ONLY the fish tacos specials but they are sooooo delicious every single time. Best fish tacos I've ever had. I don't even care that it's considered fast food. I've had other fish tacos at nice restaurants and paid a lot more money, and it's just not as good as rubios. The fish burritos also really good. And I don't know from personal experience but Scott says they have the best quesadillas EVER!!! read more

Absolute trash. I am so disappointed with the quality of the food. $30 wasted.Especial Burrito

Very strict on mask-wearing when you're standing in line and ordering. (Too strict, by my personal standards). I've been refused service twice now for not having a mask on when I entered. read more

Rubio' is always great! I love their food when I'm in the mood for fish tacos. My only complaint was the service wasn't super great and it took a long time for our food to be ready. It was most likely because they were so busy though! read more

I ONLY go on tuesdays and I got for the $2 fish taco special which is the best deal on the planet! You get HUGE tacos fully loaded with guacamole and there special white sauce and it's pure heaven. I always get 3 tacos and I'm more than full and I can't wait until Tuesday comes around. I truly wish there was Tuesday every other day and even though this would make me bigger than a house it would be worth the sacrifice to eat these tacos lol read more

This rubios location is the best in the valley and perhaps the country. Immaculate service and well prepared food. If looking for a Rubio's to go to, this is the one. read more

They are completely unable to understand a special order. I very specifically told them that I wanted nothing with onions on my burrito... it came with onions. My husband asked them to not put the cheese under the food, because he didn't want it to melt into the tortilla, after 5 minutes of them asking if we wanted extra cheese, no cheese, cheese on top... and we kept saying IN the burrito but not UNDER the food so it's not melted... it arrived with melted cheese under the food and a sprinkle of cheese on top. He asked "is this right?" We said "no" and he shrugged and walked off. Now I remember why we stopped coming here. Decent food but only if you want it exactly how they make it. We are both leaving hungry. Last time we visit this location! read more

Wow! The last time I ate at a Rubios was circa 2003? 2004? Maybe?! The interior is definitely clean and modern. I ordered the California Bowl with salmon. Husband ordered the especial burrito with steak add shrimp. I had to add some lime and salsa to doctor up mine a bit. But it was good. Wasn't the best thing I ever had. Cost almost $30 for the two of us and prob could have paid less for something better. Service was great. There was only one girl taking orders and serving the food. But she was friendly. Place was clean. Food didn't take long to come out. Can't say if I'll be back. But it was good for what it was. read more

Stopped in yesterday to try the shrimp & Mexican street corn tacos. They were delicious. Best tacos I've had from there. Sure wish they weren't a temporary menu item. Loved everything about them - nice cheese crisp bottom which helped hold the tortilla together, corn was roasted with great flavor, a bit of spice but not too much for my inexperienced-with- heat mouth. I'll write to corp. & hope they make this one permanent. read more

update your menu on delivery apps if y'all aren't going to do phone orders where you can speak to a human. the burrito i get all the time has 3 simple ingredients. either pay attention to peoples "customized" orders online or update the damn menu read more

Biggest ripoff!! I paid $14 for an Avocado Corn Salad with shrimp. Paid $5 for extra shrimp and $4 for extra greens so I could get 2 meals out of it. Well there were about 3 small shrimp in the salad and 6 in the extra portion. The extra greens side was less than a cup of lettuce. It's ridiculous how they rip people off. Won't be going there again!! read more

Called in at 7:55 to place a togo order and was promptly put on hold. After about three minutes on hold, Jacob the store manager picked up and informed us that they were closing at 8 and that they would not be able to take any more takeout orders. Are you kidding me?? Obviously they don't care about customer service or making their clients happy. I will take my business elsewhere! read more

The food here has always been good. We've eaten take out here a tone over the past here with the pandemic. However, this evening, we ordered curbside. The employee brought out our meal but forgot the drinks. We had to ask her and she responded asking, "Oh, what would you like?" Meaning they had completely forgotten even though it was on the receipt taped to. the bag. We proceeded to let her know we ordered to cokes. However, she brought out to regular sized when we had ordered large. Once we got home and began eating, we had taken a sip of our soda and it was completely watered down and disgusting (machine needed to be swapped out for new syrup or something). My chips tasted stale as well. However, my burrito and my husbands bowl was delectable. We may give Rubio's another go but they keep letting us down in one way or another. read more

Stopped by for lunch. I was asked if I was working? They said they were grateful for Doctors. They did not let me pay for lunch. They provided lunch for me and gift cards for my staff. Thank you Rubio's for the kind gesture. read more

Ordered a veggie two taco plate, only received one taco and there was a piece of hair in it, called Rubio's, one employee thought it was funny ( I heard him laugh) then he got his manager on the phone, she asked what color hair is it and then said her general manager will call me the next day. No one called me the next day. Just overall very unprofessional way to act. Look in your food people before you order it. You got very lazy and gross employees that work at this Rubio's. Don't go here! read more

Rubio's Coastal Grill - Ordered Two Taco Plate thru door dash,only received one taco & there was a piece of hair in it. - Mexican Near Me - Gilbert, Arizona

Great food and a great value. Shrimp burrito and fish tacos are amazing. My wife had a chicken quesidilla and it looked awesome. Salsa bar is all fantastic and chips are crispy and not greasy. Service is friendly and prompt. Really great healthy alternative to traditional Mexican food. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because the tables were not cleaned and I think there is some confusion in whether or not you are to clean your own plates off your table or not. Will definetly be b back. read more

They're just so nice here. And it was just so clean. And so very close to the Mesa Gateway airport (not like, walking distance at all... but once you leave the airport you're pretty much there) and I'll be darned if a big ol' burrito isn't what you want when you get off of the plane. So that's what I had a few weeks back. I've been exploring lots of local businesses in the area, but I gave the old standby another taste-a-roo and it was good. I always go with the Especial burrito. It's packed with lots of stuff, the least of which is guacamole. You can add guac to anything, but this is truly especial. I go with the chicken, but not matter the protein, be sure to get the green sauce from the salsa bar and slather it on. I've had many a good taco from these guys as well--those fish tacos are the real deal. But for me, post flight, it's all about the burrito. read more

Normally, I enjoy the food Rubio's a lot more. This location doesn't seem quite the same as the others. The staff is nice enough, but I don't know if they're trying to cut costs more here or what. My son's quesadilla had about 1/2 the amount of cheese it normally does. So, when you're making something that has only TWO ingredients, it is pretty easy to tell when they're skimping. Maybe it was just an off day. The fish taco that I had tasted really good, but the corn tortilla was not as soft as it usually is - you know how cold or old tortillas fall apart when you try to wrap them? It was like that, but it didn't taste bad, so maybe it had been sitting out a bit and had dried out a little. My tortilla soup came in a bowl that was about 2/3 full, which I thought was a little weird. Later, when I was driving home, I realized what was missing... no tortilla strips. I probably should have said something about the omission, but it had been a really long day and I didn't even think about it until after we left. I'll probably be back since this location is pretty convenient when we are running errands on the weekend, but there is another location on my way home that I prefer. read more

My wife and I came in to eat lunch today. We were looking forward to eating till we sat down at the table. The tables were absolutely disgustingly filthy. The tables were so sticky my arms and hands would stick to the top. Plus the edges had layers of dirty sweat marks from other people's arms. When I told the worker behind the counter that the tables were filthy and they needed to be cleaned. He came back with that its from the polish. Which I call bullshit. So Needless to say we won't be coming back to eat at this location. This place seriously needs work work on improving the cleanliness read more

Food is great customer service is HORRIBLE. walked in, Rachel the cashier was at the register looked up at me didn't say anything. I Did a online order. I had to ask her where my food was. And she said go look over there. Hopefully her boss wasn't the 1 that trained her read more

So I ordered Rubio's for delivery, if someone orders a burrito that they would think to throw in some kind of hot sauce because it was kinda dry. Ok, no big deal. When it came to the chips and guacamole, I think they were laughing when they put it together. Never again I will go to a fake bootleg Mexican food joint. Attached is a picture of disappointment. read more
