Always best at the original! Love the story of how Rubio's began. My favorite is the taco combo. The artwork outside on the patio is also worth a gander... highlights some of the history of the area.

This was an overall great experience at Rubio's. You really can't go wrong with their fish tacos and delicious assortment of fresh salsas. We got the two taco plate, the three taco plate, and the fish burrito and everyone was incredibly satisfied with their selection
