Orange County's laid-back taco chain began after three brothers -- who made surfing trips to Mexico -- missed the fish tacos when they returned. Walls, tables, windows and even bathrooms are laden with stickers like a giant skateboard and there is signed memorabilia (like Tony Hawk's skateboard) at each location. Starters include the tasty Maui onion rings and a spicy chicken tortilla soup, but it's the tacos -- fish, chicken, vegetarian or carne asada -- that draw the crowds. Ahi rice and white or black beans round out the meal (and your belly). For those with especially large appetites, the Banzai Burrito is a perfect match. Kids love the place because of the free stickers.

Wahoo's is way better the Rubio's
By Mackallbator on 07/27/2008
Wahoo's is so much better tasting and better for you than Rubio's! The only reason I can think that Rubio's is higher on the list is because there is more of them around! Wahoo's fish tacos and cheese enchiladas are the best!!

Kicks Rubio's You Know What
By ibgkneil on 05/17/2007
Excellent for fast food - I don't know about the La Jolla location, but the food and service at the the Sport's Arena location rock - The food is brought to you (unlike Rubio's format) and the food quality and quantity is twice that of Rubios - It is one of the very few fast-food restaurants I will eat at - Also, it has some vegan choices on the menu as well.

Rubio's knockoff
By cteal14 on 10/19/2004
Went back to La Jolla. Things have changed very quickly. Went here thinking that can't go wrong here. All this is a Rubio's knockoff. Nothing really special that would impress anyone. The food was bland and had no taste service was awful, and the people that where there are awful, stuck up people. I saw a old woman fall down out side and the family next to me sat there and laughed. I would not go there again.
