"We don’t often recommend places that are only open during the full moon of a leap year, or where you need to recite an incantation in Latin to have its location revealed. Rubi’s is an exception. This counter-service taqueria only operates Thursday-Sunday at very specific hours. But it’s worth rearranging your schedule to eat juicy al pastor and steak tacos that come on large, thick, handmade tortillas. Don’t be scared off by the line spilling out onto the sidewalk—tables turn over quickly, and there’s a small counter where you can sit and enjoy some of their delicious churros and watch the kitchen while you wait." - adrian kane, alyssa reyes, veda kilaru, john ringor
