Reviews for Rubio's Coastal Grill in La Mesa, CA

My friend and I each ordered the original fish taco. They came to us with both the fish and tortilla cold.

We really like Rubio's food. Usually the service is good and the place is clean...there were some issues with a couple of these... things, hence the 3 stars. The food did not disappoint, even though the portions are victims of inflation...bigger prices,smaller portions. That's understandable. The service was fine. Acceptable. Now the main issue(s): the place was kinda dirty!Not too busy with customers. You know, one can sweep and chat at the same time? I won't stop going to Rubio's. It's unlikely Igo back to this location. Read more

This is where we go for Taco Tuesday and they never disappoint. Clean restaurant, fast service and friendly staff. Frequently... stop on the way home on Tuesdays to grab a quick dinner before heading home. Read more

Been eating at Rubio's for over thirty years. Lately I've been disappointed especially that they are charging fifty cents for... extra chipotle white sauce for my mahi tacos. It's the principle because if they weren't stingy with the sauce in the firstplace I wouldn't have to ask for extra. My reviews are typically one star or five stars, to leave a review I either really likeit or I don't. I'm somewhere in the middle now with Rubio's. Take em or leave em Read more

Love the grilled shrimp keto taco! The keto cheese tortilla is so good - glad they added it. Double check your order though if... you?re customizing your food - a couple items were wrong. Read more

Placed my order for over $45 waited 20 min longer than I should have just to have 1 person come out and say I owe them money... when I paid credit. Then I question how they can only get a partial payment when an order was paid for by card and I showed onmy statement but the manager of this location was too stupid to understand how plastic works so I schooled him on how to refundmy money and will never go back to this incompetent location.

Very disappointed with the Original fish tacos plate. The fish was half the size of the tortilla. I made one taco of the two... that came in the plate. The chips that came with the plate were crumbs. The Taco shop close by sells the same plate with riceand bean for the same price. Their fish fills the whole tortilla and has a real San Felipe flavor. Read more

Great. The food is good and quality is consistent. The only downside is for takeaway and delivery orders they don't provide... salsa. Even if you ask for it or write it in the notes. Could be a sanitary thing, they haven't added it to bottles yet.Suggestion is to order something else as a side other than chips. Packaging is great. Read more
