Rubio's Fish Tacos Travel Reviews

Jul 18, 2007
Rubio's first introduced fish tacos to California back in the 80's. It used to be something you'd get from sketchy vendors with little carts down in Baja, Mexico- a very good thing. These are Baja style with a piece of fried fish, shredded cabbage, a white yogurt sauce, and hot sauce on a small corn tortilla. They were originally made with the traditional shark, but as word spread that sharks were endangered, they switched to other fish.

It's now a chain in southern California, but originated right here in San Diego. They've added all sorts of other Mexican food, salads and things to the menu, but I'd still go with the fish taco if you're trying it, that's what they're famous for.
