Rubio’s

Every time I go here, the food tastes fresh and delicious. I have been at least 5 times in the past 4 months. The place is always clean and I really enjoy it that they bring the food out to your table. Never once had a bad experience.

I wandered into Rubios in Tracy a couple of moths ago just to give it a try. I’ve often seen the place full of people and that can be a good sign that the foods good. I was SO glad I did. This is the kind of place that you want to return to so that you can sample more of the menu. I’ve been back since and have enjoyed every meal.
Rubios has a wide variety of fish tacos, burritos, and wraps. They also have chicken, beef & pork for inveterate meat eaters. The food was great. There is a self-​service salsa table. I’d characterize it as a fast food ambiance but with better-​than-​average dine in quality food. For what you get the $ 6 to $ 12 per person cost is VERY reasonable. And, on Tuesdays, they have two for $ 4 tacos!!!
Rubios is on my return often list.

Delicious, affordable, ecologically responsible. Rubio’s is my stand out personal favourite for fast Mexican fare.
The knob on the salsa bar goes all the way to 11, with the recent addition of an insanely spicy sauce in a squeeze bottle. It will put hair on your chest and then burn it off.
This location has adopted plates and silverware eliminates plastic plate, foil, and silverware waste. Before this ecologically sound change, I used to collect these items and recycle them at home. I strongly support this improvement.
Lastly, this particular location has fantastic management. The manager is always present, genuinely kind, and helpful to staff and customers.
My personal favourite is the Burrito Especial with chicken smothered in chipotle salsa (and squeeze bottle lava).

Upgrading the rating to four stars. I have been back to this location a number of times and the staff has been much more professional, accommodating and friendly.

Some chains skip having a location in Livermore, and unfortunately Rubio’s is one of them. So we dutifully make the trip to Tracy (through the windmills, as my 4-​year old likes to say) or stop by on the way back home from vacations further east.
My favorite at Rubio’s is the original fish taco — I’ve tried other offerings and always come back to this. Sprinkle some freshly cut lime juice, add your favorite salsa, and get ready for a Baja explosion in your mouth!
We usually get at least half a dozen fish tacos so there’s enough for everyone — and I shamelessly polish off anything the kids don’t finish!
Can’t wait to go back through the windmills!
