Rubio's Coastal Grill

The OG fish tacos are always a hit. Lime crema with them is... *chef's kiss* The Mexican rice is an absolute staple of perfection. This location has great, friendly staff and food is always on point.

Rubios started shrink flating their bowls. We ordered 2 California Bowls to-go and the bowls are smaller and portions MUCH smaller for the same price.

food was not as requested. my bean and cheese burrito came with black beans instead of refried beans. rice was not seasoned and was mush (they also first said they were out of mexican rice and then she checked with the kitchen and they said “no we have some” I feel as though they scooped the sides of a pan or scooped it out of the trash is what it looks and tastes like). Chicken tenders were chewy and half edible. Pinto beans were black beans. White sauce wasn’t white sauce. i’ve eaten here plenty of times, this has never happened. I’m honestly mad at myself for not checking the order inside the store, so i could have gotten a refund. now im sitting here eating a burrito i don’t enjoy and not eating my rice because it tastes disgusting. I should have know. the food was not going to be good because inside the trash was overflowing both recycling and regular trash. The drink fountain stopped working while refilling my drink. There were plastic to go cups in the salsa. I wish i could get my money back because this was horrible. I was so excited to eat mexican rice and a bean and cheese burrito and now i had to throw basically everything away. Truly unfortunate.

The girl working right now. 12/1/25 at 1:00 PM is impressive to watch. She handles the line, the door dash orders, the people dining in all like a PRO. She’s handing out boxes to go while finishing my sentence for my order. She’s so nice, clearly knows this place like the back of her hand. I’m sitting my car writing this review because I’m so impressed by her and everyone should know. What an easy experience on my lunch break.
