    Chicken and shrimp quesadillas
    Todd P.

    Andrew behind the register is a very nice and efficient young man. He's a great ambassador for this Rubio's. But there are still some issues after the change of ownership. We ordered 2 quesadillas, one shrimp and one chicken. We got them quickly which is a great improvement over the last owners. But both were only 3/4 filled. The outside inch of each was just tortilla. There was an adequate amount of chicken but there were only two shrimp on three of the four pieces. That made for several bites of cheese only quesadilla. The salsa bar was clean and well stocked. The tables have seen better days though. We'll continue to eat here as we have other favorite dishes.

    This is NOT Mahi. Doesn't even taste like Mahi.

    I strongly suspect they're substituting Alaskan pollock in their Mahi mahi tacos? I get this meal once a week every week, so I know what Mahi tastes like, I know what theirs tastes like. This ain't it. It's thin, dry, and definitely not the correct fish. I was hoping last week was a fluke, that maybe they ran out and they substituted something in its place without informing (had this problem as well at this location) so I gave them the benefit of the doubt while I ate my too-fishy tacos. (Meaning, I didn't like it.) but, the next week, here we are again. I'll be escalating this to corporate because I know if I went to the store I'm sure they'd come back and claim it's Mahi and that I'm wrong. If this is their new normal, it's no longer for me. Shame. In response to the comment left by "Rubio's G" - I already did reach out via that link on the website and no one has gotten back to me. I would love to order my weekly meal this week, was hoping maybe even twice since I won't have to cook this week but not if this is what's going to happen. I don't feel like fighting with the store if this is their supply of "mahi" - they'll tell me it is and I know for sure it's not. Didn't like my last meal either because it doesn't taste right so until someone responds to my message via the website I won't be going back. I need a direct email address.

    So yummy

    Their food is excellent, well priced, and they actually have variety. They have great service and the cashier khalid and his associate were very friendly and provided great service. They also play good music and the ambiance is great. I love rubios

    This was our second visit this month to Rubio's! This is a different location because we were out running an errand in the area. This location was very clean, staff was helpful and prompt at getting our order out! We have been a bit nervous to return to dining in. It's been nice to go in to a clean establishment that's doing all it can to keep Social distancing in place to protect their patrons! We enjoy that Rubio's is consist in quality and service even at other locations!! Well done!!

The dirty birdy and whiskey buck were such a hit we had a few. The appetizers we tried were delicious. The seared ahi tasted yummy and the pork belly with its crunchy exterior was gobbled up quick. We then tried the cauliflower and steamed clams. The broth for the clams was so good, we asked for more bread to sop it up. The cauliflower was yummy and everything on the plate was eaten up. The girls were full after that, but I wanted to try the beet salad. Have to say, one of the best I've ever had. Beets, arugula, goat cheese, walnuts (I think) and Orange slices with a tasty vinaigrette. Although the girls were 'full', they saw that and had to try it. Nothing left in that bowl as well. Overall, very pleasantly surprised and will for sure return to try other items on the menu. Service was great btw! My wife and I will certainly be back!

We decided to order a cup of clam chowder each to start off with and for our main entrees, we ordered a cold lobster roll and a shrimp po boy. The chowder was a bit disappointing for our preferences. However, both the lobster roll and the shrimp po boy were fantastic in both taste and quality! The lobster roll looked smaller than others I've had before but it was absolutely STUFFED with sizable chunks of lobster meat. I would definitely come back for another one in the future. What I really appreciated about this place was that for a fast-casual dining experience, the service was very friendly and attentive from start to finish. Even though this establishment is considered fast-casual dining the vibe inside didn't feel like it based on the décor and cleanliness. Not only do they have plenty of indoor seating options, but they also have a sizable outdoor patio.
