I have to admit, I have been recently impressed by Rubio's food. A few years ago when I worked over in Tempe, a friend liked going there for lunch. I joined her because I liked her, but I was never really super excited by the food. I always thought it was kind of bland and boring. Fast forward a few years, I stumbled on Rubio's again during Lent this year, when I was looking for better options than the square fish sandwich proffered by most fast-food places.
We have become fans again. I love their fish tacos, so flavorful compared to what I remember. My husband was a fan of their shrimp burritos and we like that they have organic or somewhat healthier options in their kids meals.
I've definitely been pleased we decided to give them a try again this year, as I think they upped their game from what I remember back about 8 years ago.
