Rubio’s Fresh Mexican Grill

I give them a 4 star rating because I get what I expect. I always order the burritos with no rice. To me that’s just filler and carbs I don’t need. I really like the blackened Mahi Mahi. Service is okay sometimes they can be slow, however every time I’m here they are extremely polite. I’d recommend this choice over Johnny Rockets and the other choices inside the casino…
And by some extra chips and sit and people watch! It can be quite entertaining…

I have visited here a two times in the last two weeks, ordering the H Mex Chicken Burrito. Quality is pretty good. Not a bad place.

Rubios is good, but this location is not the best. They need to get with the program. My food has been cold and when Rubios comes out with new items, they lag in getting that menu item. When
says a new menu item has arrived it should be on the menu!

This place has been here for the longest and I can’t believe I haven’t taken advantage of it being so close to home. Not only that I was looking for healthy food that was close to my place so maybe it’ll be one of the place I frequently visit. Here it is «FISH TACOS»! If you don’t like seafood, or sea fare well it’s fine you can order something else off the menu, but as for me I go for the new 3 taco menu sampler. Can’t get any better than the Original Fish Taco Beer Battered and so good.

Love them! Super yummy fish tacos. Always have had great service. I enjoy most everything on their menu. Fresh and good.

I used to live in San Diego back in the early 2000s and couldn’t get enough of this place, so when I found out there had a couple in Vegas… we had to stop by and get our fill! It might not be the Cali air that I’m used to but this spot in Vegas does this grill justice!!! — You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu unless you don’t order anything off the menu! haha!

This place gets 3 stars for original fish tacos. They are heaven in your mouth.
Everything else I’ve tried is pretty blah.
Beans are tasteless, other tacos bland, rice is like red tinted steamed rice.
The fish tacos though… every bite is better than almost anything.
Service is usually pretty good too.

I seriously adore Rubio’s! I wanted to give this location a shout out because I always receive awesome service here. You can’t be fast, cheap & delicious Mexican food :)

I came to Rubio’s Aliante location for the first time and I like what they had to offer.
I came with a friend who ordered for me + another person the grilled gourmet taco that came with a side of refried beans and rice and it was stupendous!
The whole meal was super tasty and fresh and everything was just super delicious!
3 orders of the gourmet chicken combo came to about $ 31, which is a fair price in my opinion.
The service was just what you’d expect from any fast chain. It was simple, fast and efficient and were in and out in about 7 minutes.
Next time I’m in the area I’ll give this this Rubio’s another go!
Thanks Rubio’s!!!

This review is about my experience with my attempt to redeem a coupon for a free taco, but I’m throwing in my previous experiences I’ve had into the mix, as well.
Being a Rubio’s «Beach Club» member, I receive coupons for my birthday and sometimes to try a new menu item for free. Several days ago, I received an e-​mail invite to RSVP for myself and a guest to try the new Chimichurri Salmon taco at the Rubio’s of my choice. I filled out the RSVP form with my name, the time I was going to arrive, and the Rubio’s location where I wanted to pick up my tacos — Aliante Station.
I arrived at the Rubio’s and waited for a minute or two for someone to appear at the counter. A woman with a bored expression on her face emerges from the back. I tell her that I would like to try the Chimichurri Salmon taco. I tell her that I have the coupon and proof of my RSVP on my phone. She informs me that because they are a FRANCHISE they can only accept PRINTED coupons because it’s how they honor coupons… OK. HOWEVER, the coupon states:
«Print OR present this offer on a MOBILE PHONE to redeem. Offer only valid during date and time listed above. One taco per person. One-​time use only. Duplicates not accepted. Not valid with any other offer/​discount. No substitutions. No cash value. Please note a photo ID may be required.»
Doesn’t say anything there about franchises not accepting mobile coupons. No matter how many times I tried to tell the lady otherwise, she kept telling me the same trash. Because we were starving, I ended up just buying dinner there: one Avocado Corn Fish taco and a Baja Steak Burrito. The Avocado Corn Fish taco was delicious, but it didn’t make up for the crappy service that left a foul aftertaste in my mind.
Lastly, this isn’t the first time I’ve received poor customer service at this location. Over the years, I’ve become inured to the service because there aren’t many decent food places to choose from in Aliante Station. But I’ve noticed that whenever I’ve come to this Rubio’s, the service has always been pitiful, and the employees never appear like they enjoy their jobs even the slightest bit, unless they’re standing around doing nothing or jackin’ around in the kitchen for all to see — yeah, we can see you. Then comes a customer to ruin the fun. I only selected this location because we were going to be in the area. Plus, it had been a while since I’ve visited this Rubio’s. I sure as hell didn’t know that service remained the same. So much for hoping for some positive changes to be made.
The food’s the only thing this place has going for them; the service, forget it. That’s the last time this location will get any more of my money. Never again.

I have been eating at this location twice a week for about four months now. The food is always fresh and delicious; the employees always kind, helpful, and efficient.
I love the fish tacos, add a squeeze of lime and WOW. Very yummy. The grilled salmon burrito is delicious, very big for the price. I have yet to be able to eat an entire one in one sitting. My boyfriend is a fan of the chipotle shrimp salad.

This truncated review is based on free fish taco promotion that they have, I guess annually, at this chain. One time was all I needed to stain my amygdala with the horror that is the experience of a fish taco at Rubio’s Fresh Mexican Grill.
We went at nighttime. Not sure if this mattered; and it might have been for ANY tacos, but all they had left was fish. I cannot remember; it was maybe two years ago. I figured this place — the location — if not the entire chain would be CLOSED due to insolvency by now, it was that terrible.
So we had fish tacos. My girlfriend had one and I had one. I don’t remember there being that many people there; it was weeknight. We were going to the Regal right next door afterwards to catch some forgettable picture.
The fish taco was the worst fish taco I have ever had. In fact, I have never had another fish taco since then, now that I think of it. My organism as a whole said NO MORE FISH TACOS, GUY after the experience.
I will never patronise Rubio’s again, but I hope to someday, with lots of therapy, be able to overcome my fear of fish tacos and have another one (somewhere far far away). — E

I was given a free meal at this location and went ahead and redeemed it. The food was good and the service excellent. An improvement over the last time I was here. My only recommendation is for them to not cook the fish until it is hard and crispy. Just lightly fry it. Good job.

What a great find! This was my first time checking out Rubio’s. Honestly I was thinking this was a certain «other» mexican place in Aliante. But I was willing to try this one instead. Glad I did! I thought it would be a good late lunch while waiting for my movie to start… I was pleasantly surprised! YUMMY YUMMY street tacos! Now I am a huge fan of street tacos, but these were amazing! Especially for a «fast food» place. I’m used to the little vendor stalls at local events and was not expecting to be blown away. This really was like eating tacos in Mexico! Only I didn’t have to worry about getting sick! haha
I had the 3 little carnitas street tacos with chips and beans. A small side of the mild salsa and an ice tea! I asked for it to go, since I don’t usually manage to finish a complete meal. Was I wrong. I ate all 3 tacos which were warm and juicy and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the cilantro and onions on top! I am a huge fan of cilantro, so if you are not you may not appreciate this as much as I did, but it’s not overwhelming like some other Mexican places I have eaten at. The side of beans seemed small at first, but combined with a bit of salsa and the chips it was perfect! My mouth is watering just writing this review! The beans did need a bit of salt to meet my taste… just saying! The mild salsa was a bit too «tomatoey» for me, but they do advertise it as tomato based… I’m going to have to try their tomatillo salsa next time.
They use Lipton leaf tea here so I was pleased! Even unsweetened it was delicious and refreshing. (Just an FYI, I managed to walk into the movie theater with this cup and nobody batted an eyelash!)
BONUS!
So, I don’t know what the service is like on a weekend or evening, but since Monday afternoons are my movie days now I thought this was a perfect lunch on my perfect day off! Thank you Rubio’s and Aliante station for making my day wonderful!
I hope everyone can enjoy this location!

Love, love, LOVE this place!!! The food is delicious and it’s really close to my house. The great thing is eating here before or after your movie. It’s one of the better choices in Aliante, if you don’t mind eating in the food court. You can also get pretty healthy fare here. Might I suggest the grilled Mahi Mahi burrito? Cause it’s mighty tasty! Especially with the tomatillo salsa and a little lime. I tried the mahi mahi fish tacos as well, but I much prefer the burrito. I think it has more flavor and the portion is HUGE! One burrito will definitely fill you up. If not, it comes with chips too.
