Tucked away in Albuquerque, this restaurant serves up outstanding New Mexican cuisine that keeps patrons returning weekly. Diners rave about the delicious tacos—especially the chicharron—and the authentic flavors of homemade dishes, complemented by fantastic chips. However, the ambiance has faced challenges, with reports of unruly customers clashing with staff. While the dining area is small and casual, the quality of service and food remains commendable. A strong emphasis on employee morale is necessary, as incidents of customer disrespect have made headlines. Still, the culinary delights and warm service keep food lovers coming back for more.

How Good? Ruben's is the whole package, the Authentic Mexican food, the People and Hospitality. Right from the start get the Casa Blanco Cheese to dip your chips in, that smokey flavor with onions and peppers is fantastic. Ruben is one of those people who just loves cooking, and it shows here. I'm a softy for the Burritos (Steak or Pork so hard to decide. and Enchiladas, my wife loves the Chicken Fajitas and my Daugh... View all feedback.
What Frank Tank dislikes about Ruben's Grill:
Good food, and Ruben is a good guy, I used to go there in past and am from the neighborhood, but last time I was there,. There was a guy, I believe the same one other reviews are referring too, not sure if he is a cook, waiter or his family, but he was cussing out the owner I believe for good minute, because of payment from a customer. I am glad he was not my waiter because I don’t tolerate disrespect from people! .... View all feedback.
Ruben's is a hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant and grillBefore I tell you why I love this place, I need to get something off my chest.
This restaurant doesn't honor its hoursVery unfortunateI first went Halloween evening around 530 hunting for tamalesThey were closed.
I really enjoy local places like this in Abq Really good Mexican food, I got a carne aside burrito that was fantastic.
I witnessed how on some occasions customers can be quite rude. An older lady provoked the waitress a lot last Saturday. The lady ordered a garnish order and got upset because she was charged. The lady began to verbally attack the girl, who was taking care of her, i think the waitress name is lorena, The lady alleged that they had waited a long time, the girl informed her that when they arrived there were already orders in front of her order, that she would not be served before the first people who arrived, which after so many curses that the lady told the girl, the girl defended herself and put her in her place! Ruben the girl defended your job! The lady began to verbally assault your employee. I Hope my review Help so that ruben does not allow his problematic customers to assault his workers, the lady created a fairly large conflict and then pretends to be a victim, threatening the girl that she would receive a very bad review. The girl received a call which i belive it was a take out order and the lady didn 't stop screaming, the girl told her to stop screaming because she couldn 't hear what people was saying on the phone, the girl told the lady to leave the restaurant and the haughty lady yelled at the girl you don 't tell me what I have to do btch the girl demanded her to leave and the lady from the door continued to curse the girl. The girl ended the argument saying bye, have a good day , the woman flipped her off through the window. Again... the waitress defended rubens work and she defended herself. Good job!
My partner and I visited this charming restaurant for a late breakfast on a snowy day. I truly admire the classic decor they have! The half wood-paneled walls adorned with vintage photographs create a wonderful ambiance. The traditional tables and chairs are not only stylish but also quite comfortable. The restaurant itself was immaculate and the overall atmosphere was delightful. The food was fresh and incredibly affordable! I ordered scrambled eggs with hash browns and toast, accompanied by a glass of white milk. Everything tasted homemade. This was our first visit, but it certainly won't be our last! It’s a fantastic local eatery.
