    I love Rubios and this one is conveniently located in Redlands. Easy in and out with plenty of parking. The place is clean. Seating is limited but it seems most were taking out. Service here is good. There's hardly any wait. I partly ordered online to use my Birthday reward which was buy one get one free entree. Then I used my app for another coupon which was 2 for $16 at the counter. Online they have $7, $8, $9 menu deals but I asked her about it and she said that they have it but you have to ask. Overall, they have some great deals! My only complaint hence the 4 star, was the citrus rice which came with my bowl was hard. I don't think it was cooked long enough.

    Warm welcome by cashier behind the register as soon as we entered the restaurant! My daughter was picking up an online order ! Wait was at least 20 minutes. Was busy tonight for dine in and to go orders .

    Receipt clearly saying -minus the onion and cilantro  Them highlighting means they acknowledge that right?

    Placed an online order for 2 trio taco plates. And 2 steak tacos for my son minus the onions and cilantro because he is allergic. Get all the way home to find we were missing 2 tacos, and my son's tacos had everything we asked NOT to put on it. So we had to throw his dinner out. It's probably the slowest day of the year for them and just can't get right an order, why even do online ordering. Eating out is a luxury we only do once in a while, so to be missing items and can't even eat because of restrictions is a real inconvenience. Thanks Rubios.

    They were doing a 2 for $16 deal. Check the app for good deals like that . With one bowl coming in at around $13 anyway using the deal just made perfect sense. I could have lunch ready for the next day! I decided to order the California bowl with salmon and the chicken taco plate for the next day. Both items were made to my specifications. Noticed that they continue to be skimpy on the rice . Why? Why ? Why ? The service was friendly and fast.In fact someone came out to tell me they were out of the citrus rice I wanted and if I wanted to wait for a fresh batch . Yes indeed . That salmon with the tang of the rice was my reason for coming . The wait wasn't long. There is both inside and outside seating.

    Main entrance.  Outside seating too.

    I have been getting fish tacos here ever since they invented fish. Tonight I'm trying the burrito which is something different. Also tomorrow is taco Tuesday so I don't want to get tacos on a Monday :-) The staff is very kind. They are young, which makes me think they would be on their cell phones all the time, but they are not. They are very professional and happy to be here. I can always count on and finding a good seat. I'd like to teach chairs aren't wobbly and falling apart like another restaurants. Also, they are chairs, they don't squeeze you into a booth you can't fit. The food is great. The menu has expanded so much in the last 10 years. I know they are closing some of these restaurants. I hope this one stick around because it is in a very classy area.

    I always order the same dish every time I go because I like it so much. I order the gourmet shrimp tacos. I usually order two and sometimes I get the plate which includes beans and rice, or just ala carte. It comes with two sauces for the tacos, a red and creamy beige sauce. The employees are friendly and the inside is clean. They also have tables outside to eat.

    I went to grab a bite before going to the Redlands Bowl. The food is always good but the chips were a little under cooked. The service was good and I loved the music in the store.

    3 Tacos: beef, chicken, Mahi Mahi

    Today we tried 3 different tacos at Rubio's Coastal Grill. The parking is in the rear of the property and shared by several other businesses. Be patient with the parking, there can be challenging times with the traffic movement. The facility is on the smaller size, so have a backup plan for a dining location at peak times - just in case. You can see from my pic our three tacos. Unfortunately, they basically tasted the same with only some minor differences. For what you see, each hovered, plus or minus, around the $5 price point. The Mahi Mahi taco didn't live up to their description. (It's the taco on the right-hand side of my pic.) The fish was dry, and the sauce lacked the anticipated flavoring and was sparse. The cabbage and corn were nice and crunchy. The chicken and beef tacos were closer in flavor with each other than what was expected. It was good that the beef flavor was prominent in that taco. In the chicken taco, the fresh avocado was the standout feature. It seemed the chicken taco had more sauce and therefore more heat - which was good. In both tacos the lettuce was crisp. In all 3 tacos the soft tortilla shells pretty-much held up. The house hot sauce definitely helped the chicken taco.

    I have not been here in a while, but I remembered liking the food. Well, we gave it another try yesterday and I have mixed feelings to share: SERVICE: The line was not long but it was moving very slow. When I finally reached the front I was greeted by a team lead that forgot their team lead hospitality. No real interest in helping me but I managed to get my order in. I remembered that they used to have a salsa bar where you could choose your type of salsa, but it was empty. I asked if salsa would come with the food....and the "team lead" advised me that I was supposed to tell her that before she finished the order. I apologized for not knowing the rules and she cancelled my total and added my salsa. Yay! Later I also ordered a "to go" entree for my son and she told me it would be 30-40 minutes because it was busy (I assumed online orders because not many of us inside) they were also telling everyone that walked in the door about the 30-40 minute wait...Can't count how many customers they turned away. Wow! FOOD: Here is where my mixed feelings come in...the food was great! Super fresh and tasty. Their shrimp and fish tacos were fabulous!! The salsa (that I got in trouble for) was just as tasty and spicy as I remembered. (Only reason it was not 1 or 2 stars) CLEANLINESS: Could have been cleaner, don't think they wipe tables down after customers clean up after themselves. At least ours was kinda messy. But not horrible. I would say, order online, the food is good. But unless you like being disappointed in the service, avoid going in. I think they'd prefer that anyway. Good luck Yelpers!!

    Steak burrito (cut in half)

    Ordered for pickup on a Tuesday. Service was quick and simple. Environment was clean. Original fish tacos were good enough. Burrito was very disappointing. $13(?) for a steak burrito with barely any steak as seen in photos. Just a few tiny pieces. Horrible portion and a waste of money.

I have walked past it a few times. Jim, the owner, was awesome. I had many questions and food restrictions. He was very patient with me and accommodated my food restrictions. I ordered the pulled pork BBQ panini with a coconut water. I cannot find the perfect describing words, it was more than I expected. I asked for the cherry Chipotle sauce on the side. Let me tell you, if I didn't have health issues that, I would have slathered my sandwhich with that sauce. I had to ask what the "meat" was made with because some vegan meats I'm not able to digest easily. He said mushrooms. I eat mushrooms very often I also eat meat here and there. I would have never guessed my panini had mushrooms. The sandwhich was delicious. It had a side salad with quinoa, beets, arugula, feta, and a dressing. That salad was actually good, I don't even like feta but I ate it with the salad. Don't get me started on the coconut water. I tried to get on the coconut water bandwagon and I never could because they all tasted bad to me. Welp... not this one. I can say I have a new craving. Comes in a nice glass bottle and tastes great. I was craving it the next day. $8 is a high price for me, but i can say if you have the $ the taste is worth it. And you can keep the cute glass bottle for other stuff! Jim was so kind he gave me a pumpkin cheesecake to try. I ate it later when i got home. I was expecting to only take a couple bites as im not a pumpkin gal. But i ate the whole thing. Im assuming its vegan by the texture. It had a real pumpkin flavor. It was soft and not too sweet. Just the right size to hit that night time dessert craving when your kid is alseep lmao If you read this far, go try it out. I hope you love it :) I will be returning, Jim, beleive it!​​

It's inside the Redlands Public Market and on a random Monday night, looks to be the busiest restaurant. We got the Bomb Bay, Floozie Lucy & an order of chili cheese fries. The Floozie Lucy was a good burger but I didn't care much for the stuffed patty as I have problems with texture. The main star was the Bomb Bay! It was a double patty with the thickest, crunchiest, most delicious bacon I've ever eaten. It paired well with the jalapeño dressing. It had a little kick and though the burger itself was big; I was still hoping for seconds since it was so flavorful. The chili cheese fries were also delicious. The food here is made fresh to order, you can customize how well you like your patty cooked. With the quality, you can tell it's fresh food made to order. Downside to that is that it does take about 20 minutes and can be on the pricer side. But totally worth it! If you're a ranch lover, get their ranch dressing. It comes at extra cost but was a good staple for me. Overall, solid burger spot!

We ended up having a great time, good drinks, good food, and a really enjoyable atmosphere. After we left, we were gone for about four hours when I suddenly realized I had lost my wallet. I was completely frantic retracing my steps, and something told me I might have left it at the brewery since it blended in with the outdoor furniture. I called and spoke with the owner, who confirmed they did have a wallet, though she wasn't sure if everything inside was still intact. That made me even more nervous because I had about $1,000 in cash in it and was on my way to the bank earlier. When I returned, the same gentleman who had helped us with our food and drinks carefully verified my identity before handing it back. To my absolute relief, every single dollar and every card was still there. I just have to say it's rare to come across that level of honesty and integrity these days. Huge thank you to the staff at Escape Brewery for being such incredible, trustworthy people. Truly a reminder that good people and good karma still exist. We'll definitely be back

    When I started this draft a few months ago, I originally had this at a 4 star review. I liked that…read morethey were super dog friendly, that I could just buy a bottle of bubbles for $19 with some orange juice, and I liked their redlands cheesesteak (minus mushrooms and aioli). It was a chill place for me to come and service was fine - you order at the front and go ahead and pay or keep your tab open. If you want anything else, you need to go back to the front. Pretty much get left alone by the staff, which I enjoy. However, today I did what I usually do, got a redlands cheesesteak, a bottle of bubbles with orange juice, and just read my new book for my book club with my pup next to me. They did originally make my cheesesteak with mushrooms, but took extra time to make me a new one and added a side of fries to compensate for the long wait since they had to make it twice. Cheesesteak was good as always once I got it. Bubbles were good with some juice. Still would have left a four star review at this point. Unfortunately, I was literally minding my own business sitting and reading my book with my pup when this couple next to me starts arguing. The angry older man waves his hand as he's yelling at his gf(maybe wife idk) and proceeds to knock over his gf's newly poured glass of beer which spills all over me, my book, and my dog. As an initial reaction, I did say "dude, wtf?" which I think is a normal reaction to having beer spilled all over me when I'm literally minding my own business in my own little book world. This guy literally decides to start screaming at me that he's "sorry" but my reaction is ridiculous and proceeds to call me a c*nt. Really great apology calling me that offensive term for women. I'm telling him not to call me that and he's the one that spilled beer all over me. He starts getting even more aggressive. At this point the guy behind the bar is telling me to leave and get away from the screaming guy. I've already started grabbing my stuff before he said that as me and my pup did not need to deal with this BS on our day off. I didn't even finish my cheesesteak or my bubbles - just left it all on the table. I tell the guy behind the bar that I didn't do anything wrong, I'm leaving anyways, but don't understand why they are letting this guy stay. He just says that he'll talk to me after I "calm down" away from the bar. So I walk away from the bar and he doesn't follow me. I literally have to go back to the bar and say "I'm ready to talk to beside the bar. are you coming?" He says okay. I walk over to the side and he walks over with me saying he "doesn't know what's going on." Doesn't even bother offering me a refund when he totally saw the whole thing go down. I ask for a refund because this is ridiculous and he does give it to me after I ask - still think it should have been immediately offered not waited til I asked. I tell him exactly what happened and he just says look, I'm not kicking you out, but how about you stay on the side over where the arcade is and the guy that screamed at me just stays where he is. I'm like, dude I don't want to be here anymore so I'm leaving either way, but I don't understand how you are just letting this guy that spilled a beer on me then called me a c*nt stay here. He says that he's probably gonna kick him out, but idk if he actually followed through on that as I just walked out. I'm severely disappointed in how this was handled and how unsafe this place made me feel - clearly they think the screaming white man is correct and the asian woman is just being hysterical. I used to come here all the time, but this one instance makes me never want to go back here again. I'm really upset how in today's world, this is the norm. That somehow, after being called a c*nt and having beer spilled all over me, I'm the bad guy? Never coming here again. Biggest disapointment of a brewery in Redlands.
