    Fish and fries with cole slaw.
    Tosha L.

    Either my food wasn't fresh or it was ready before the pick up time and was just sitting. The fish and chips entree was mediocre. Fries didnt taste fresh, and fish had soggy batter. I like fish and chips, so I do want to try again, hopefully it'll be better.

    Shrimp & Bacon Burrito (with hardly any shrimp)
    Jessica D.

    I am a big Rubio's fan in general, but the Temecula locations tend to be performing at a much lower level. I ordered my usual shrimp and bacon burrito, and it was basically a rice burrito with 3 or 4 shrimp on it. I feel like this location is being cheap and it's very obviously reflected in the food. At other locations in San Diego you get like 25 shrimp. Do it right or don't do it guys come on.

    Original Fish Taco® Two Taco Plate
    Divya S.

    Tried the famous FISHTACOSfor the first time, and they did not disappoint! They were so JUICY and DELICIOUS, especially with their mild salsa. I got the tacos as a platter with beans and chips and they were also good, the beans were warm with cheese on top. Would DEFINATELY RECOMMEND and would get again!

    Poop in Classic Grilled Shrimp
    Beauty L.

    Poop in shrimp. Customer service was great but I can't eat my food now because I'm disgusted. I haven't tried them for a long time because I felt with my last visit that they've gone downhill and this is just confirmation I won't be coming back probably ever again I'm gagging.

    Omg. This place... we are coming back for sure. The service was amazing. Our waitress, Justina,…read morewas on it. Our table did not lack at all during our visit. The place was was nicely decorated. The bathrooms were nice and clean (not funny smells). The dinning area was spotless with updated sort of nautical beach hints. They got me with the fish fridge/market at the entrance. Everything in the fridge looked so yummy. The food was delish from the symphony of the warm bread crust all the way to tartness of the key lime pie. Come here... you will not regret it.

    My family and I visited for dinner last night, and unfortunately the experience was disappointing…read morefrom the moment we walked in. When we were seated, we asked for a high chair three separate times before one was finally brought to our table. The high chair turned out to be too small for our son, so we asked if we could use a booster seat on the end chair instead. The server seemed hesitant, mentioning she wasn't sure she'd be able to get by the chair. We said that was fine and instead placed the booster seat between my wife and me. After struggling to get our son comfortable, we eventually realized the booster seat has two different height settings depending on which side is facing down. It would have been helpful if that had been pointed out when it was brought to the table. Throughout the meal, our server seemed distracted and wasn't around very often. Our food was brought out by other staff members, which isn't necessarily a problem by itself, but combined with the lack of check-ins it made the service feel disconnected. The biggest disappointment came when I took my son outside while we waited. The benches, chairs, and handrails in the waiting area were covered in bird droppings. There were spider webs in multiple places, and the entrance to the restaurant itself looked dirty. I understand the restaurant is going for an old harbor or fishing-boat atmosphere, but there's a big difference between rustic and neglected. Instead of feeling charming or nautical, it felt like years of dirt and grime had simply been left in place. I don't enjoy leaving negative reviews, but basic cleanliness and attentive service are things I expect from any restaurant, especially when dining with a young child. I hope management takes this as constructive feedback because the restaurant has potential, but our experience left us with little desire to return.

    Amazing service and amazing food felt like I was back home. Great conversation with the server…read more Amazing scenery and seating, For sure would recommend to eat here!!!!

    I just finished going to Zumba Class at EoS Fitness and this place was in the same plaza so I…read moredecided to stop by and pick up some lunch. It was my first time here so I wasn't really sure what to order. And I just noticed after ordering that there is a self kiosk available too... I saw a nice variety of LUNCH SPECIALS so I had a hard time deciding... SERVICE: A+ Excellent service by a really nice last with long eye lashes! I didn't get her name but, she helped explain the menu items and recommended the FLAUTAS! She also gave a sample of the horchata and I really liked it... AMBIANCE: 10/10 Really nice indoor lighted patio feel. It's perfect for a date night or any occasion. I wasn't expecting it to look so cute and authentic inside... OK so let's talk about the food... FISH TACOS: 10/10 I liked it very much! I thought it was amongst the best in town. Their biggest contender is probably Los Tacos. But, they can win on the quality, portions and pricing. The lunch special was $9.99 and it came with rice and beans. FLAUTAS: 8/10 I wish I ate this right away because if you take it home it will get soggy. The closed box and lettuce and sauces made it mushy. I think I would definitely ask if they can kindly separate the lettuce and keep the box open so the flats stay crunchy next time. It has a nice flavor and texture though... HORCHATA: 9/10 I'm very picky with horchata. To me, it can't be too sweet, too milky or too cinnamony. This horchata was close to perfect. I actually got a nice flavor of the rice, it was not too sweet or watered down and has the right amount of cinnamon. I really like and just prefer it a tad bit thicker or creamier. But, it's definitely one of the best in town! The salsa bar is so nice and CLEAN! The cleanest one I believe I've seen in town. And they are very generous with their salsa bar. There were onions, lime, pickled carrots and radishes. All were very FRESH!! Can't wait to come back and try their other dishes!
