Elisha M.

Im so disappointed in the service from Daria. While taking my order she kept trying to do things and talking to everyone else. Our visit was on a taco Tuesday. My husband ordered 3 tacos. And we were charged for a taco plate and a $1 extra for 3 tacos when the special was 3 tacos $3 each . What a rip off.

The new Steak Nacho fries

OK RUN DON'T WALK to Rubio's. I have been coming to the Temecula PKWY location for years and this is a wonderful location. Actually the only location I will go to in Temecula. All the employees are amazing and fun to chat with. I am the type of person who gets stuck in only ordering 1 or 2 things because I don't want to be disappointed. I like eating what I know is good. Today I tried the new steak nacho fries and wow 10/10. It doesn't take away my love and very frequent order of Salsa Verde Shrimp Tacos, but if I wanted to "spice things up" the new steak nacho fries is definitely going to be ordered again. (In my top 3)

Alex, great manager did my order for me on my phone app.

Alex, one of the managers, really made my first visit to this location easy. It was all about I had 490 points that were going to expire and I could use them for a free drink or dessert. And then I had another survey coupon for a free drink or dessert. But I felt the computer may not let me use both on the same transaction so I wanted the employee to make it two tacos for this transaction and two tacos for another transaction so I could use both vouchers that have expiration dates. Well it got so complicated to do on my phone so Alex took over and he just gave me the 2 free items and made it one transaction was a lot faster. I thank Alex and I'm having a good meal. I'm getting everything to go and packaged separately cuz I make the tacos at home. Maybe two tomorrow night and put the fillets in my toaster oven and make it all like from scratch from the ingredients they package separately here today. So Five Yelp stars is for Alex's service.

I like this specific Rubio's a lot food is great and consistently good. Always busy but there service is very good considering how busy they are. I really really like the California bowl it's huge and packed with food. And always a must is the beer battered fish burrito. They also have a salsa bar with 4 or 5 different salsas and jalapeños. Place is clean as far as I can tell so definitely no complaints there.

places is very dirty tables are not cleaned or anything

Service is really slow. Customer service sucks. The food takes forever to come out and they're very annoyed when you ask questions, especially the girl in the redhead, came in here with my rewards there was no Wi-Fi so they made me pay for everything, would not recommend!!!!

This was the ONLY restaurant left that we have not tried at PECHANGA and to be honest we were not…read moretoo THRILLED to try it bc we had very LOW expectations for a SUSHI RESTAURANT inside a CASINO. I mean, how good could it possibly be? SERVICE: A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ From the moment you were greeted & welcomed with a BIG SMILE by the lovely hostess to the moment the extremely welcoming and friendly waiter BRUCE took your order. I was blown away at the EXCELLENT SERVICE. It felt the most sincere it of all the other restaurants. There was no slight expression of moodiness or tiredness. VERY PROFESSIONAL. LOBSTER ROLL: 10/10 STAR OF THE SHOW It's actually made with REAL LOBSTER and not Crawfish or worst imitation crab meat. This is one of the only sushi places that actually makes it with LOBSTER and the best part is they also fry it!!! YES YES & YES!!! YAKI TORI COMBO: 9/10 Tastes Great! We loved the Beef & asparagus but, the shrimp or prawn was a bit tricky to get off the skewer! MISO SOUP: 9/10 Was it worth $10 My husband says HELL NO but, for me it was the perfect balance of sodium level. Most places either make it too salty or bland. 1 point off because it could have used more umami flavors from more miso and bonito flakes... AMBIANCE: It was quite beautiful inside with Cool Vivid theme colors. Almost like you were eating under the ocean kind of vibe. Great place for a date night or group gathering. They also have a full bar!! I shouldn't have underestimated this place. It was great! ROCK ON UMI SUSHI & OYSTER BAR!

I haven't eaten here in a while and it was nice to know the quality was the same. I ordered an unagi roll and a Temecula Fire roll. I enjoyed the fire roll more than the unagi. The unagi was a bit one notes and was missing a contrasting flavor and texture. My gin and tonic was yummy but it didn't have extra like requested. I tried the shrimp cocktail and it was really good. I prefer my cocktail sauce a little more spicy but that's just a preference. The ambiance is tranquil and soothing. I like the dimmed lighting. It can be very romantic for some. Also, Dylan who took over for Bryce was also fabulous!

A must stop if you're in Temecula! The service was absolutely amazing from the great…read morerecommendations to the attentiveness in making sure everything was to our liking. Now the food... The carne asada was juicy and perfectly cooked. We ordered the loaded fries, and wow they were truly loaded with meat! We also tried the taco enchilada plate as a sampler, and the enchilada sauce was to die for. I literally scooped up every last bit with my quesadilla. They offer several house made sauces with different spice levels, and all of them were delicious. Each of us had a different favorite, so definitely sample them all before choosing. The quesadilla was great too, but if you're deciding, I highly recommend the loaded fries and the taco enchilada plate both were packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. Lastly, we got the horchata, and it was excellent perfectly flavored and not watered down at all. We pass through Temecula every time we visit California, and we can't wait to add this gem to our regular stop. There are so many other menu items we're excited to try next time!

What's going on with all the failed Mexican food in temecula? The quesibirria came with 1 consume which is standard everywhere else I eat in San diego and los angeles. Some places here in temecula CHARGE 4$ to add consume soup. Their cosume was nice and oily but NO flavor! Seems to be the trend of this place. So for this they get 3 stars. I want to be fair and try other things but if their meat isn't even seasoned well the other dishes will probably disappoint as well. Its a cute restaurant and the people seem nice. The restaurant feels really laid back.

The minute you walked in, the ambiance just wasn't it. Perhaps because we were the only minorities there and everyone else wasn't (including the staff) but it was uncomfortable having people stare at us while we were eating and having our own conversations. Someone came to get our drink order and then it took a bit of time for our actual waiter Leila to come take our order. She did mention she was doing something else. we ordered the steak and frites and their pork chop which was the special of the day. I ordered my steak medium rare and the rest of the table ordered it in medium. When the steaks came out, the waiters seem confused as if they weren't sure which plates went where and when asked if that's a medium rare steak, they stated yes. That steak was medium and it was also dry and under seasoned. It was also tough and chewy. The fries were either undercooked or overcooked. Chimichurri sauce had no flavor to it. We did also order the cedar salad which was delicious. Their calamari and wings were as well. At the end of the night, Leila asked our friend how he liked his steak because it didn't seem like he ate anything. He said it was okay and she kept insisting you can be honest and kept pushing the matter. This was extremely uncomfortable because there was no need to make him feel like he was put on the spot. while I understand the need to want feedback, if your guest says it's okay and seem uncomfortable, maybe leave it at that. She then came over to me and asked about my steak and again saying, "you can be honest." Why wouldn't I be? I did tell her the steak was cooked incorrectly, that was not a medium steak and pointed out that it was dry. There was this awkward silence at the table because honestly there wasn't a need to keep pushing. Simply asking how was it would have suffice. They did end up comping my steak which was nice of them however the entire experience just wasn't pleasant. From the ambiance, to the crowd, to the food - wasn't worth it.

My man spoiled me beyond measure, we got the Tomahawk, bone in family style, it only came with asparagus and mash for... $198. I really wanted the steak and I love a good bone in steak. For this price, they could do better with the sides, I mean, asparagus and potatoes aren't that much and especially in bulk. In my opinion m, these sides do not match the overall esthetic of the restaurant. The sides should be way better! Although they were good we wouldn't spend the money again. We also got bread, it wasn't good, it was just too much of a different variety and they should give free bread and make you pay for that kind of bread basket. The wedge salad was amazing!!! I could have just ate that, no joke, it's so good. The Mac n cheese was definitely a great choice! It was so bomb! Get the mac n cheese I also loved my waitress and should have gotten her name! This place is great for their employees bc they're not overworked, well it seemed as if they were not and many people helped out with our table collectively! Five stars for that! That also creates a happier environment for employees. Overall I would come back here, especially bc it's located inside of Pechanga, the food is great, and the customer service is top tier. I just wouldn't get that tomahawk and wouldn't get so much but could have the Mac n cheese with a salad for dinner or just a steak. 10 out of 10! Oh and the waitress said you really don't need sides for the steak, they have lots of side/sauce options but they served the steak with a house made A1 and it's so damn goooood haha
