Rubalcabas Taco Shop

Still five stars all around! The flavor is spot on with anything I’ve ordered. The portions are huge and the price is right. My husband and I can order several things for under $ 20. The staff is always friendly. They also have daily specials for $ 5.99 that are very tasty. I love that their food isn’t overly greasy and is made fresh.
Some of our favorite items to order are the carnitas burrito with guacamole, beans, and pico, any one of their chimichangas are always huge and yummy, the fish tacos, chile relleno, and the al pastor taco salad. This place also gains points in my book for being open 24 hours! Anytime the need for some solid Mexican munchies hits Rubalcabas is there!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! Very casual, come as you are atmosphere. We usually get it to go so we can stuff our face w/​o being judged… lol Taco Salad is one of my favorites. Don’t let the word salad turn you off cause seriously there is nothing healthy about it. Lots of chicken, beans, cheese, salsa, sour cream, and guac. Oh yeah some shredded lettuce too.
My second favorite is the carnitas burrito. OMG sooo good!
Don’t forget to try the homemade green sauce, red sauce and pickled spicy veggies.

6-​19-​2015 — I stopped in this location for a quick burrito and some beans and rice. The place was almost empty and I ordered a beef burrito and a side order of beans and rice. My order came with the beans and rice in the burrito, and I did not reorder as I was in a hurry. It did not come on a plate, just wrapped in paper, They had a little station to add salsa, etc. The burrito was ok but nothing special. This was my only experience at this location and I can not rave about my food, or service like other reviews I read. I did not get the rememberable thumbs up experience that a person gets after having had something above average.

This place has some delicious food. Can’t wait to come back. I had the carne asada fries and was not disappointed, I also tried their burritos and it was delish.

It’s so hard for me to find carne Asada fries in Las Vegas. This place delivered 100% !!! The fries even still tasted delicious when I reheated them later ! If you’re into Asada fries definitely try these :)

The staff could not understand my order in English; they should have people who can accommodate their customers and their orders.
Once my food was done, it was all wrong after trying to explain to them exactly how I wanted my tacos.
Besides that, the place was VERY dirty and had an unacceptable restroom with graffiti all over & a disgusting toilet which I did not even use.
Health department should review this place!!!
It’s not right at all.

I found this place in high school/​college days 10 – 15 years ago, used to eat here all the time. Moved out of the area a long time ago and just visited my dad nearby, remembered this place and came back and it was just as awesome as I recalled. The food is very authentic and delicious, always fast and piping hot. Everything on the menu is good and worth getting. The guys behind the counter are crazy nice, they treat my little girl like family. Hey, the area is a bit seedy and it’s location is a little out of the way but the food and service are top quality.

Awesome. Great food. Lil commercial but I’m still satisfied. Me and my sister got the California burritos. Just a slight bit different then the ones back home were used to. Other than that. A plus

I give this place 5 stars omg this is SALP yo mama stupid goodness. See my pictures. Lol omg two thumbs up all the way.

Family owned. Inexpensive. I call my order in and its ready in ten minutes. Internet jukebox. nice employees. Ten times better than competition

Good hole in the wall taco joint. Handy for a quick stop on the way home from work. Super friendly employees.

Great peeps! Good ‘olé mexicana grub. It’s on the way to Lake Mead entoute to a day of boating and drinking — go figure, it’s on Lake Mead Road. Tap it again on the way home. #4 is a trusty item! Chips with awesome salsa, pickled carrots/​onions/​peppers. In short, great beer food!

Sometimes, you just need a good Taqueria, and this place really hit the spot!!! The nachos and coctel camaron were especially tasty!

I love the food there. The portions are a good size and the price is reasonable. My children and I usually share the Carne Asada Fries.

Ordered up al pastor fries and the chile relleno plate. The al pastor fries were good! I would give it a ⁴⁄₅. The chile relleno, however, was not to my liking. the chile was too firm in my opinion. I am a fan of soft chile relleno. This chile was so firm that I had quite the difficulty cutting it with the plastic fork and knife. I will definitely try this place again I think, maybe explore the menu a bit more.

I’ve been eating here since I moved to this side of town and I love the food here. It has been consistent and I have never gotten bad service over the years. The staff is always professional and nice, I never have to wait long for an order which is good when everything is freshly cooked. I’m skeptical of Roberto’s because if I order Carne Asada fries they are prepared by the time I get to the window. So, was the meat sitting around or were the fries? I prefer their food to Roberto’s any day.

Foods great recommend carne asada fries or burrito. Place is a hole in the wall with some on point breakfast burritos as well. The décor sucks, but the food is all that matters

Hole in the wall Mexican joint. Consistent quality. Friendly staff. I used to go to the taco place on the corner but now I only go to this joint when I need a quick bite to eat for lunch. My only complaint is that the carrots at the salsa bar seemed mushy… must be canned.
Also, they have surprisingly good chicken wings as well.

OMG! I love love love love this place. It is wonderful. Typically when you go for a meal you end up in one of 4 scenarios:
1. Good Food + Good Price (Rubalcabas)
2. Bad Food + Bad Price
3. Bad Food + Good Price
4. Good Food+ Bad Price
Well I have had an opportunity to visit Rubalcabas Taco Shop on just about ten occasions and have found their food in the first category each time. They offer good sized portions at a value. The food is tasty and often leaves me wondering how they do it. I can never finish the chicken burrito and manage to finish it the follow day. Every time, it is fantastic. The service is good and they also have a decent condiment bar with salsa, veggies and limes.
I would recommend anyone try this place once to see if they can at least agree the food is yummy and the price is fantastic.

Still not disappointed. I stopped in the other night and had a Carne Asada Torta, Cheese quesadilla and a slice of Flan. The torta had a nice texture and was messy but delicious. They didnt skimp on cheese with my quesa. The flan was delicious and fresh and had the right amount of carmel taste. And overall the EMPLOYEES are super friendly.
