Flour and corn tacos
Ebony P.

I've been looking for a place that was similar to Chipotles, and i think i have found it! This place was empty but very clean inside. I tried the nexican Street Bowl with chicken and steak. The flavor was really tasty, i also ordered the 3 tacos special. Even though they dont give much meat, the tacos were also good.

I've been to this Rubio's location at least a dozen times since moving to Palmdale and it's always very consistent. There was one event where the meat on my nachos was over cooked but the chain rectified the meal by providing a gift card for future use. I love the fish tacos here! They are bigger than your average fish taco and they always taste fresh! They seem to be made to order because they are always perfectly crispy. Big fan of their lunch deals and their taco Tuesday menu. You can really get your money's worth coming for dinner here on Tuesdays. Their burritos are big as well and the steak tacos are a great option too. The salsa bar is always stocked and kept clean. You have to try their green salsa on the fish tacos and the chipotle salsa is perfect on the steak. Service is always pretty good too - I give them props for their quick service. I've never had an unpleasant experience... everyone is alway very kind and helpful. I recommend downloading their app so you can build points and get exclusive offers. Definitely recommend this Rubios location especially on a Tuesday!!

This place is way too expensive for mediocre food. $50 for a child and 2 adults...crazy. We didn't even order any seafood.

I actually looked on Yelp to find out the daily special since I'm a regular here, and noticed the…read morephotos were so outdated and reviews were meh... which was confusing. I've come here for years, and the food is always great!! A few of my faves, the macaroni salad, pulled pork sandwich, chicken bowl with coconut rice or noodles, Caesar salad... my husband has had a few of the seafood dishes and he's never been disappointed either. The service is always excellent, everybody is nice, so welcoming right away, and the food is always incredibly fast. I mean, I'm able to come here on a 30 minute break, get my food and eat, and still have half of my break left. The outdoor patio, and inside seating is comfortable, clean, and well kept. One of my favorite places to go!

So yesterday my husband said let's eat here it's a been a while, He ordered the Bowl with Brown Rice and Luau pork. I ordered the same except I chose island Noodles. My family is from Oahu, and this food was not good at all, let me tell you they give you very little pork in the bowl and it was not hot at all. Island noodle what the heck was that? To me it was angel hair plain pasta what a joke. I only ate the few bites of cold pork and couple bites of the spaghetti noodle they called Island noodles. Bill was Little over $40 with drinks and a small desert. We also ordered a small desert pineapple upside down cake. Now this was good $4.99 only we had that was any good. Also, I used the restroom, and the hand soap is horrible the smell lingers kind of smells like cheap hairspray. I don't know if anything else on the menu is good as we have ever only eaten the bowls not worth the money IMO.

Panera also offers a "sip club" which is successfully managing to stay afloat and worth every penny. You pay a monthly fee and can get a free drink from the self-serve area any time you see a Panera. This is lovely, and brings them regular core business. Read their agreement for everything I've forgotten. I am not any kind of official representative. This location is my personal favorite. It is well-kept and responsive to its clientele, which is very diverse and obviously thriving under the expert care of the management. People feel safe here, and treat each other kindly and respectfully. As to the menu, I have my favorites and a couple of failures. Any of their boules are top notch. All of their sandwiches are a ditto. All salads but one also have my vote. The Strawberry Poppyseed, which sounds exciting has a deeply disappointing poppyseed vinaigrette with artificial sweetener in it. Get it with another salad dressing, or yoghurt, but not sure how to get the poppyseeds in that case. I hope they can fix this salad dressing, really. It has such potential to be delightful, like the rest of the menu, including their amazing flatbreads. Now, here's the final touch: family meals. Go find them. You're welcome.

Baracoa Cuban Restaurant was an amazing discovery when we stopped for a lunch pitstop on our drive…read moreup towards Tehachapi. I can easily see them being a favorite in the Palmdale area. There was plenty of parking in this lot. The entrance is located through their patio, which can be a bit counter intuitive. We came at opening and the restaurant got really busy during our time there. Initially we were looking at the sandwiches because it was lunch time, but then we were going to a wedding that night so we decided to eat something more filling since the ceremony and speeches always delay the eating. All entrees here are served with black beans and rice or congri, and 3 fried plantains. My boyfriend had the Ropa Vieja ($28) with the congri and I had the Lechon Asado ($25) with the rice and beans. Our food came out pretty fast after we ordered. My boyfriend's Ropa Vieja is a Cuban braised beef. The congri is basically a mix of the rice and beans. This dish was super tasty and the shredded beef was so tender with the bell peppers and onions. I can really taste the red wine and tomato sauce in the base. I took a few bites but in general I preferred my dish more, and vis versa he enjoyed his dish more. My lechon asado is a roasted pork that is super super tenderrrrrr. It was so sweet with the grilled onions and it had the perfect amount of fattiness without being over bearing. SO GOOD! Love the plaintains too. I'm glad I got the rice and beans option because I would have gotten too full too quick with the congri. I barely touched my beans and only got through half of my rice. Both dishes came with this super tasty garlic butter sauce that I poured on my rice and made it even tastier. It was so good. One thing I didn't enjoy about the experience was the flies attacking us and our food. Since the door is open and connected to their outdoor space, it leaves the opportunities for flies to come in. We had to play defense with the flies the whole time. The service here is a little slow. Especially when I was trying to get back on the road I wasn't feeling too patient. I waived down multiple staff members too. Also I got hit with an undisclosed 3% surcharge for using my credit card. I only found out after I got the receipt. I would have paid in cash if I knew. *dislike* LOVE LOVE LOVE the food. Might be the best Cuban food I've ever had... and I've been to Florida where there was a lot of Cuban spots. Room for improvement with service, flies prevention, and the disclosure of the credit card fee.

My aunt made reservations to this place in Palmdale. Palmdale is a very dry, hot heated area,…read more surrounded by bushes and lizards and maybe snakes too. Anyway, this place apparently is a fancy Cuban restaurant according to my aunt. We decided to eat here for dinner after 7pm on a Saturday and it was booked. A great place to take a date if you can even get one nowadays, lucky you. You found the right place. The Cuban food ordered was a vaca frita sandwich that was reasonably priced at $17 or so. It was dry, lacked seasoning and had even more dry plantain chips on the side fried to high heaven. My aunt ordered a grilled chicken sandwich. Still dry but more moist than my vaca frita sandwich. Server was Juan, he was good, good patience and quick delivery. Good overall was mid in my book. Maybe should have ordered the $65 plate with seafood. But it was overpriced. Although I could afford it, $65 for a plate is ridiculous. The other entrees included the fried bananas but the sweeter ones and black beans and rice with for example oxtail, fried steak, chicken and pork, of which was overpriced as well. At least $30 for each dish or more. Take a look at that menu. The ambiance inside was loud, outside was louder. Music was playing and there was this massive window door that separated the inside and outside. Inside it was small, there was a bar area for alcohol drinkers and in the back was a nice restroom. Other than that, it was a decent Cuban place, needs to adjust prices for the entree, but the sandwiches were at that sweet spot. The sand which to me needed sauce like tabasco or cholulu or some sort of wet birria sauce that would make it taste better. Incredibly dry, was not a fan of the texture, taste was fine. Came out to $50 for both plates and it was a little lackluster in my opinion but everything else, good service, nice ambiance and decent sandwich prices, it was worth the visit but maybe a one and done not sure. Maybe the plates are delicious.

I asked to upgrade my drink to a 24 oz, but they declined due to "ingredient limitations," which I found a bit surprising. In my experience, this type of request is usually accommodated in LA. The drink itself was delicious, at around $8 it felt comparable in price to Starbucks. Overall, I think there's a balance to be struck between building a distinct brand identity and maintaining flexibility in customer service, as being unable to accommodate simple adjustments can affect the overall experience. The ambiance felt similar to a typical teen-oriented or tween-focused hangout spot.
