Rubio's Coastal Grill - Give this child a raise! - Mexican Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

It's been years since I've given this chain a chance, and I'm glad I did. Burritos are generous, chips are crisp, and the salsa is tasty

Our server, who's name I can't recall, went way out of her way to customize my order ingredients beyond the call of duty. She truly wanted us to have and indeed ensured that we had a superior experience. Most impressed by the Mexican seafood. Fresh and yummy. read more

I have an enjoyable meal here. I went with the 3 street taco meal. The meal includes 3 tacos with your choice of chicken or steak. Plus beans and chips. I went with the steak and extra beans to add to my tacos. The steak was tasty and I received a good portion of meat. While this is a fast food Mexican style of food it's still enjoyable to eat. Service was very nice and quick. I enjoyed the salsa bar with the different salsa options. I appreciate that they are labeled and it looks good and presentable. Who wants a dirty salsa bar. There are also limes available to squeeze onto your meat. There are many options to choose from at Rubio's. Plus they offer a kids menu. Heads up ladies the firemen like to come to here to eat so you can also enjoy the eye candy while you eat some food. read more

I love Rubio's and probably have it at least once a week! Favorite dish used to be the blackened tilapia, which is now gone. My stable go-to meal is probably the blackened Pacific Mahi Mahi now, occasionally the Original Fish Taco. Don't forget the seasonal Langostino Lobster! That's a must-get when it's in town. Anyway, long story short, this particular Rubio's never disappoints. Food is always excellent; the speed of service is quick, even during the lunch crunch. Great location! read more

Ordered on DoorDash and I received someone else's order, so I decided to reorder. Big mistake! When my order arrived, I realized it was my first order that had been sitting out for an hour. The food was cold and inedible; in addition two meals ordered contained the wrong protein. I received a $5 credit from DoorDash for the wrong items which does not equate, but whatever. My issue now is that I can no longer order from Rubio's even through Ubereats; every time I try, my order gets cancelled. This is BS!!!! The Dasher and the store were at fault for the issues I had and now I am getting punished for it. They didn't lose any money. They never remade my order! I just received my original order with the wrong items and it was cold. This place sucks! read more

Food is great. Establishment not so much. The windows have drinks stuck on them. It looks like it's never been cleaned. The floors are disgusting. They are black. The chairs as well are all black on the bottom. The walls are even black. They need a deep clean. I mentioned this to one of the employees and she said the night shift does mop. Who knows. It's not appetizing to eat when you see how dirty it is read more

Restaurant is the dirtiest I have seen in a long time teenagers at McDonalds take better care of their store.

Hours of operation outside their location says 10 AM to 9 PM throughout the week. I went to their location at 10:26 am and the doors were locked on a Thursday morning. So I waited until they were supposed to open at 10:30 according to their website and also Google, and they still weren't open. When I called them to confirm what time they open and she basically told me they weren't gonna open for another 30 minutes. That response is the most unprofessional response to give a customer who's wanting to purchase something at your establishment. If you guys open at 11 AM you should put that on your doors to be transparent with your customers and also you should put that on your website. read more

I have frequented this chain regularly, not specifically this location. I've only been to this location a few times over the years. However, a group of us wanted to eat here as a quick meal after being the area this past Saturday early evening. We tried to use a card, and they were only accepting cash and wouldn't allow us to use a coupon? Definitely understand there are sometimes technology & network issues for not allowing the use of a card; however, why wouldn't you accept a coupon??!!! No excuse/reason was given...not the best customer experience and I don't know if I would ever eat at this chain again. I would highly recommend other establishments down the way (few steps away) like Yogi's or Wing Stop. read more

Total 360. Steve at the Helm, Gabriel I'm training. Excellent food as usual. Prompt, courteous and sincere. Thank you again for making immediate change. Good / great business. read more

Food was good but expensive for what it is. $18.70 for 3 shrimp tacos, chips and beans, and a large soda. I was surprised to learn the salsa bar was bland and lacked actual spice. I wasn't sure if the chips are unlimited when eating inside. I asked James but he didn't get back to me on that and was short with me and my friends. The young woman who took my order was nice though. I won't be back on account it was too expensive, they were out of Vanilla Coke, and James wasn't very pleasant. read more

Wow!! Very inefficient. Not sure what possible could be taking so long. There seems to be enough staff. They are just taking a long time to get the food to customers. This seems to be a bad decision for dinner before our concert. Lesson learned. I can't imagine how many other customers won't be back. read more

Always fresh an delicious and always quick. Take advantage of their rewards program and the price is great too.

Portions are small considering the prices. I don't see the point of having to pay almost $12 for a medium bowl, that honestly doesn't even fill me up. Larger portions would be perfect. read more

Good food, I quit eating here because of the cost. Almost $4 for a fish taco and grown ups need 2 then add a side or two and its $15 for "fast food" nope. read more

Nastiest chicken tacos I've ever tried, rice was literally hard and undercooked. Even the tortillas were dried out and seemed old although I literally had to wait for my food to be ready- arrived by the pickup time and still waited roughly 15-20 mins for food to be ready. Got my significant other a burrito and he agrees worst meal we could've had considering it was busy and supposed to be fresh. read more

A friend of mine told me that this place had "amazing fish tacos" and I had to try this spot. I won't be listening to him again. The dish was dry and the staff was unprofessional, with the Exception of the young lady with the super short pink hair who took my order. Obviously her first job And she was friendly and far more professional than the rest of the clearly "more experienced" employees. read more

After waiting almost 20 mins for a ToGo lunch order, I asked it is was going to be completed soon. I only have 30 mins for lunch and was already past it. The guy behind the counter mumbled "it's right here" and threw it on the counter without another word and turned away from me. I actually apologized to him for even asking, the cook gave me a dirty look. I get that lunch time is busy, totally understand but 20 mins seems to be a little excessive. Even if it took longer, the attitudes I got in return was not necessary. A sorry goes a long way. read more

After a subpar Rubio's experience at another location last week, I decided to give this location a try because I was craving Mexican food for lunch. I ordered: Chicken Street Taco, $1.89 http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/rubios-fresh-mexican-grill-mesa-4?select=1c2PgdqigA46363BoO1YuQ#1c2PgdqigA46363BoO1YuQ Steak Burrito Especial, $6.99 http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/rubios-fresh-mexican-grill-mesa-4?select=FBYDDa-7XMSOJRcOUkcVzg#FBYDDa-7XMSOJRcOUkcVzg The food came out in a short period of time and despite being busy, the cashier remembered who I was and took the food out to my table instead of calling my name....great service! The Chicken Taco was very good. The Steak Burrito Especial was even better. The Steak was juicy and full of flavor. All of the ingredients were fresh and complimented each other. Of course, I got the spiciest Salsa from the Salsa Bar to eat with the food. I love their Salsa Bar. Overall, a pretty good experience. Return Factor - 70% read more

I had fish tacos and they were delicious. Enjoyed a beer and fresh made salsas to choose from. Staff was super friendly and helpful

We needed to get a fast healthy meal before our movie at Riverview and we had concerns because there were quite a few customers. When we got to the counter to Oder I asked if they could get us our food in 10 min, and the awesome manager pointed from the other register and firmly said "YES"! He said we will have your food out very fast. He was right, 7 min and we made it to our movie. Thanks for helping us out and getting it done even with a broken foot!! :) read more

The original fish taco has a big hunk of meat. This ain't no wimpy Taco Bell taco. A la carte is priced at 2.79. But I suggest the combo at 6.49, which comes with two tacos, rice and beans and a drink. Hey, no need to tip. They have a clean salsa bar with about 8 different salsas. Sliced limes are set out too. Try their raspberry tea on tap. It's tasty. Our cashier Ramon had a smile. A lady's toddler dumped something on the floor and Ramon mopped it up and was like "no problem". Outdoor seating is plentiful and each table is covered by a tiki umbrella. read more

I went to a few Rubio's and I was surprised... as in how clean and well kept this Rubio was. I almost didn't recognize that it was a Rubio's. The staff cleaned the tables pretty fast and the food came out pretty fast too. Since Rubio's is more known for seafood Mexican food, I had the shrimp and bacon burrito and it tasted pretty good! It was my first time trying it. There were plenty of shrimp and the flavor was appetizing. If you have to go to a Rubio's, I suggest going to this one. read more

One of the better fast casual Mexican restaurants pretty much ever and I don't even eat fish. Always get something with chicken and Rubio has never let me down despite many strange menu changes over the years. In this visit, tried the two taco combo with rice and chips for about 8 bucks (about a buck more than it should be really). The chipotle sauce they drizzle on the chicken makes these tacos have a nice smoky taste. Use the coupon option to get a free large drink and you have a decent, healthy lunch. Lots of high tops at this location and a salsa bar that uses two sides finally. read more

Walked in and it was extremely clean and welcoming. Austin was an extreme help and he was so kind to my friend and I. Food came out faster than I thought and tasted great. All service was excellent. read more

DIRTY! Everything looks like it hasn't been cleaned in weeks! From the payment keypad to the windows, napkin dispenser, floor. All have been neglected for some time. I've eaten here many times in the past but have not been in a while. It's going to be a long time before I return. read more

Based on the pictures, I thought they actually put a good amount of meat in the tacos. For $4-5 per taco you'd think it would at least be 2oz. You'd be wrong. Three shrimp in one and about 1.5 oz of chicken in the other. Surprisingly, they put the most meat in the lobster taco. Flavor was good, but paying $17 for three tacos that have such a small portion of meat in them is a rip off. Be prepared to walk away hungry. read more

In one word why I would come back to this Rubio's again and again; service. I had an old gift card that it sat in my car through an Arizona summer and I had all sorts of stuff melted to the magnetic strip. So I couldn't check it easily to see if there was any money on it. And the assistant manager took 10 minutes and made phone calls to see if there was a balance on there. You just don't see that kind of service anymore. Beyond her amazing above and beyondservice. They deliver the food to your table. The place is clean. The restrooms are clean. Everyone smiling. They have moved into seafood more in recent years. The salmon tacos that were black and were tasty. I've always like the mahi-mahi burrito. Next time I come back I'm gonna try the lobster tacos or the lobster burritos. They have three different types of fresh brewed iced tea. It's real food that tastes great and is nutritious so I'll keep coming back. read more

Don't come here expecting fast service. I ordered 3 tacos and I waited 30 minutes. It's not even that busy. They are just super slow. 10 mins a taco I guess. Won't be coming back here. read more

Walked up to the door at 7:37 when they close at 8. All chairs stacked up and door locked. I would get not being able to get food a couple minutes before close, but 20+ minutes is ridiculous. You have hours for a reason! read more

I walked out. After watching the cashiers ponytail brush upon the grill for the 3rd time I asked for a refund and she throws the food around. If you don't like your job, get another one... she messed up a burrito and wiped everything off with her hand and started over. Then she put her food service glove on..the 3 of us told the manager. He did not care to hear it. read more

The woman that took our order on the evening of 7/19/22 heard me say repeatedly please do not put any guacamole or avocados on my order. I explained that I am allergic. She also said it was too near closing time for us to be able to eat inside and that we had to take it and leave. We did not check our order until we got back home. Guacamole on my tacos and my friend got the wrong salad. It was really disappointing. Still gave them three stars because the burrito (without guacamole) I got the night before that was decent. Never going back though. read more

Not good and overpriced for what you get. Tables sticky and gross. There's a lot of options in this plaza and anything is better

Slow, slow, and slower. Really, can't anyone multitask? This service would not fly at in and out burger. Lines to the door..ready to walk out. read more

Steak and chicken was dry, water taste like it was fresh out of the sink. I guess I can't expect much for a basically fast food restaurant but for the price I was expecting a little more than the mediocre food and service I was presented with. read more

I ordered the Cali Steak burrito and it was nothing but potato and flour tortilla, hardly any meat or guacamole. For over $9.00 I would expect the burrito to be more than that. The kids meal with the chicken was good. Overall would not recommend due to the price of the burrito and what was provided. Disappointed. read more

One of the worst experience I've had at Rubio's. As a cashier You must be ready to answer questions about the menu. The girl this night didn't know what kind of Fish was on a specific taco. When asked she responded "its regular fish." I was amazed at the answer an felt sorry for her. Not trying to be hard on her but I could understand if it was her first day. But I'd advise Rubio to make sure full staff gets proper training on menu. Other the food was great and store was clean! read more

Unusual poor service. We love Rubio's. Our food is always fresh. On Saturday 4/16/22 @ approx 7pm We ordered from counter for eat in.. Our order was 2 bowls with extra lettuce (one bowl with Verde sauce and another bowl with roasted salsa). When we received our order there was no extra lettuce (not the first time) and no sauce on either bowl. When questioned about the extra lettuce we were told there was extra lettuce in the bottom. No, that is the amount of lettuce that comes in the bowl. Then, each of us were given a side dish of extra lettuce. No big deal. Then as we mixed in the extra lettuce we noticed neither bowl had our salsa as ordered. First we were told it is under the other ingredients in the center. When both of us showed the server there was no green or red salsa in either of the bowls he told us it is the same salsa at the self serve salsa station. We got our own salsa. Not a good experience this time. We have been at this location many times and this was our worst service. Glad we chose to eat in or our order would have been less than what was ordered. read more

The Chipotle orange salad is the best salad in any fast food chain. The red peppers and the white sauce give it the best spicy flavor and the leafy greens are always fresh. The fish tacos here are also some of the greatest. I'm a sucker for anywhere with a free salsa bar and the cilantro onion mix adds extra freshness to the tacos and salads, or I like to mix it with the mild to make it more of a pico de guio. Anna is the nicest cashier and gets my order right everytime and Alex always cooks the chicken to perfection on the grill they are great. The store has a side seating area that is perfect for the cooler weather months. Love Rubios read more
