I don't know about you guys, but it has been one heckuva work week. Ughhh. I opted to splurge after work and enjoy dinner at Rubio's. I've been here a couple of times before, but never took it upon myself to write a review... 'til now (and I didn't forget the pics before I scarfed down my food this time either. WIN/WIN!)
So... Rubio's is a great, chill spot with good food. They seem to specialize in a tex-mex / mexican / seafood kinda flair. The bulk of their mainstay seems to incorporate seafood into the dish in one way or another. This location is very clean, the employees are friendly and the food... well, like I said, the food is good.
I opted for the Cabo Plate which is a good choice if you've come hungry. The plate consists of their classic grilled shrimp burrito and their original fish taco. The burrito has grilled shrimp, refried beans and a host of other goodies. The shrimp is grilled to perfection every time and the beans are not too overdone. I typically smother the burrito in their roasted pichante salsa which has more flavors going on in my mouth than I really know what to do with... it's delicious. Not a lot of spice, but still a ton of flavor. The meal itself really isn't horrible for you and goodness knows there's worse things you could be eating. The plate isn't finished though. You also get a side of their famous no-fried pinto beans and a large handful of their tortilla chips which seem to round out the entire plate without pushing you over the edge into a food coma. Just don't say I didn't warn you. Their pinto beans are creamy and the texture is excellent.
This is definitely one of my favorite weekend lunch spots and I'd recommend it to any of my friends and family! Kudos to everyone at this Rubio's location for a job well done.
