Contribute Feedback What Jonathan Sauder likes about Ruben's Mexican Food:
Between the small window and the attendant's English, ordering was a bit difficult. They charged us a bag fee, even though we didn't need one and would have been fine just getting the box of food. The chicken tacos were solid, but kind of boring. The medium sauce was good. Our order came out quickly. View all feedback.
What Antonio Algieri doesn't like about Ruben's Mexican Food:
Even taking into account inflation and economics the portion to cost ratio is way off for what you pay to what they actually give you. You pay premium prices for no frills mexican style street food and get tiny tiny laughable portions. The food itself didn’t taste terrible just give me a decent portion for what I pay you! The service was rude, guy at the service window snatched my phone out of my hand to confirm my o... View all feedback.
Solid spot for a good burrito up until 2:00 a.m. ish. No seating... (No dine in)
Honestly the best burrito Ive had in bmore, coming from a californian. absolutely fantastic and not a bad price at all.
It was very okay. The birria tacos lacked flavor and they had my order ready in five minutes which makes me think these aren’t freshly made. Based on the texture, they are either using really low quality cheese or not shredding it themselves. The tortillas were a little rubbery. There was a good amount of meat and I was full from one and a half tacos plus some chips. The chips and cheese were okay. The cheese is better than Chipotle but not as good as Qdoba. It is gritty, not very thick, and pretty good flavor. The chips are the same as you could get anywhere else. The hot sauce is not very spicy. It is a good flavor, a little bitter, but if you’re sensitive to spice, you might be okay with it. It tasted slightly hotter than a jalapeño, but not as hot as a habanero. The cashier was friendly, my food was hot, done early, everything I asked for was in the bag, and they gave me plasticware and napkins without being asked. So from the service side they’re good. But it was really weird that the windows were mostly covered and I had to ring a bell at the front door so the cashier could hand me my food from a window. And no, it didn’t give the good sketchy vibes like a place is about to be really good. It gave regular to bad sketchy vibes.
Quick but expensive $2 for lime that should come with my tacos is crazy.
The burrito was good overall but they need some type sauce or dressing.
