Rubio's Coastal Grill

This is a Mexican taco restaurant originating from California, famous for its fish tacos. It offers great value for money and quick service. There is a small condiment station where you can choose your own sauces and side dishes. The location of this restaurant is excellent, with beautiful scenery. Sitting outdoors, you can see the temple. The lobster and beef flavors are also highly recommended—they taste amazing.

I ordered the 2 crispy fish taco plate on my last visit. The fish was huge and crispy and freshly prepared. The cabbage was paper thin and crisp and perfectly seasoned. I couldn't believe how good my dinner tasted. I am a long time Rubios fan boy, but this trip was my best visit in quite a long time.

Food was excellent, really liked it and would eat here anytime for the food. A man that appeared to be unhomed came in for a minute out of the rain and I bought him a burrito. The machine didn't give us a receipt. The staff tried to say that he never bought the food and weren't going to serve him until I showed them the transaction on my credit card statement. The bathroom had a leak in the ceiling that was dripping right into the toilet where one would sit when using it. Good food, bad staff, and atmosphere. Only one spot in store for group larger than 3-4 people.

Very nice place. Quick service. You can order yourself and take the table number and they will serve your food pretty fast. Good portions of food. Lots of taco options. We took the chicken burrito, beer battered shrimp tacos and fries. All of them tasted so so good. The outside vibe is also pretty and nice. We loved the place. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a cheap and good mexican place to eat around La Jolla Coves.

We ordered Rubio's catering for a sports banquet. The Rubio's team did an excellent job of putting our order together and it was done exactly at the time I had requested. There was plenty of food and it was delicious.
