Rubens Mexican Grill - Dyer

The table salsa was tasty, but I wasn't a fan of the chips—they felt a bit stale. The salsa verde had a nice flavor, while the salsa Maria had a nice kick to it! I ordered the taco salad, which turned out to be just okay. The portion was large, filled with lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, onions, cheese, chicken, and black olives. Personally, I think black olives didn’t quite fit in; maybe beans would work better? It felt like something was missing. However, the shell was great, and I ordered guacamole on the side. The condiments were a bit perplexing; they offered lime cilantro vinaigrette and ranch dressing, so I decided to try both. The ranch was pre-packaged and tasted as if it came from a fast-food chain—terrible flavor. Even my son, who loves ranch, didn't want any with his fries. The vinaigrette also lacked flavor. Thankfully, adding guacamole was a great decision, as it was the only thing that brought some taste to the meal. I’m definitely planning to give this place another shot, as I believe a taco salad isn't representative of authentic Mexican cuisine. It was what my daughter wanted to share, so I went with it! Overall, I’m giving a strong 3-star rating for the mediocre food, but I look forward to returning and trying something better so I can provide a higher review!

Amazing food! Excellent service! Fantastic prices! I absolutely love this place and have never had a bad experience here.

The food was quite good, but it leans more towards Tex-Mex rather than being completely authentic. I had to ask for cilantro and onion, which should have been included. Additionally, the sour cream portion was surprisingly small.

Very good price point and the fajitas are delicious ...also I would say try the pineapple margaritas

Oh wow. What a major slip in food quality and ambiance. I came here on a Sunday afternoon during the heat wave. The restaurant was empty except another table. Lots of catering orders going out. I ordered the beef quesadillas and they were actually awful. They were falling apart due to lack of cheese. Zero flavor and kid of gross. The accomplishments were lettuce and tomato with a very small to-go sour cream. Very lacking. I had the surf and turf tacos with shrimp and beef and these were better. What was upsetting is that their coconut margaritas were phenomenal and now they were actually awful. Shreds of coconut, not creamy, not tasty, bitter. I also ordered a non-alcoholic one for my dad and they could not accommodate the request my manager won 't allow me to make the margarita without alcohol . He didn 't say it 's a mix and it includes alcohol. The waiter was fabulous and very attentive. I felt bad for him because he could have been working at an upscale place. I tipped him well for his efforts but won 't be back. I feel bad when local restaurants slip this bad.
