A wonderful experience as always. I always sit outside because the noise level inside is too much for me.

Prior to this visit, I've only eaten at Decoy in the evenings (about 8-9 times). I chose the mahi mahi tacos of lunch nd was so disappointed that a restaurant like Decoy produced such a poor version of the fish taco. It was very dry, the sauce was practically non-existant, and the veggies inside were minimal. The tortilla itself also seemed very dry. I guess Rubio's has us all spoiled.

Waited a long time to be seated. Forgot that they had already checked us in ?!? Only had 1 menu for our party. Food was subpar when it came out - crispy chicken salad was “chicken nuggets “ no peanuts . Never came to refill my water . Waited FOREVER for the check .
