A very nice cute little restaurant, beautiful Christmas decorations, and amazing appetizers and food was really good. They also have really good bread with olive oil and vinegar and oregano as a complementary. Our waitress was very nice and she kept giving us more vinegar and oil as we asked.I'll definitely come back to try the different pastas.

About the same as last time, this is an old school style Italian restaurant. If you are seeking typical, middle of the road Italian fare, then this is the place to go.There's nothing particular bad, other than being ordinary, and nearly every dish could be made easily at home, with an added bump up in flavor.I started with a salad, good enough and lightly dressed, but the individual parts could have been shredded or cut down further for ease of eating. I got a huge chunk of cucumber.This time, I had the Pasta Milano. It was competent enough, the pasta well prepared, but it was drowned in a thick white sauce. The chicken pieces were cooked OK, could have been smaller, and seemed to come from a commercial grade product in a freezer bag. The taste of the dish was very mild, bland, and was similar to one of those preprepared freezer options from a supermarket. It was a very heavy dish and undoubtedly very high in fat content.I ended the meal with ice cream, a Spumoni. Again, nothing out of the ordinary.Service was a bit inconsistent.Meals did not arrive together with an inordinate lag time from one person to another, and it took a couple of asks to get water glasses refilled.I truly have nothing against the restaurant other than being ordinary and not all that inspiring. It's the type of place my parents went to in the 1960s, so for nostalgia, this is the place.Note: Apologies for the last review. There is a misspelling that can not be corrected.Linguini with class should be Linguini with clams.

I loved the ambience and my salad was delicious. The service was also great. The main dishes, however were bland and lacked flavor. We also questioned the freshness of the Parmesan chicken and eggplant-it almost tasted like they had been frozen. We ate it but we probably will only go back for the salad.

Best service! It's our friends' favorite restaurant and couldn't get over there to get a gift receipt. Lonnie called us right back when we left a message and waited on the phone to make sure it went through with a link and sent us ways to get it so it would work for sure!!!! Thank you!!!!

I want to thank the management of Rubio's Italia Italian restaurant in Rocklin California for going above and beyond. Ordered a order from them to GrubHub and it went through. They were payed .I guess they decided they didn't want to deliver it. I got a text an email saying the order was canceled so I called the restaurant to verify and they said we will have one of our waiters deliver the order to you to me. Thank you so much so greatly appreciate it. I leave five stars and the food is very good. We're from out of town.

The food was amazing here. My whole family loved it. Here are the items we ordered:Seafood fettuccine, Pasta Milano, chicken Marsala, arancini, calamari, gnocchi in tomatoe cream sauce, chicken parmesan, creme brule, lasagna, and the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken. Everything was amazing!The chicken Marsala wasn't what I expected but the chicken was cooked perfect. The seafood pasta was for my mom and she's the pickiest of us all. She was very pleased with her dish. My favorite was the Gnocci in the tomatoe cream sauce ( they were perfect Iike puffy clouds). 2nd favorite was the Pasta Milano. Then the creme brule. This is definitely becoming one of my favorite spots.

We just had funeral services for my wife's daughter at the Murray Family Funeral Chapel. Rebekah suggested Rubino's for the lunch reception we wanted to put on afterwards. We fed about 75 folks buffet with a bar and it was great. Salads, chicken, lasagne, bread, even a couple of gluten free plates for those that needed it. The service was spot on, food was delicious and the wait staff were so nice and tended to our every need. Chris and Henry did a great job! Our guests were very impressed. Thank you all for providing the perfect venue to share fellowship and break bread.Jim and Valerie H.

I had a reservation for 6pm. It's 6:30pm and we are still waiting for a table. There are now 3 other families also waiting for their table after making a reservation. The hallway is basically completely blocked. This restaurant very clearly does not care about their guests' time or comfort.

My 2nd time here. Wonderful food and customer service. Our waitress was excellent. A little pricey but so worth it for a special occasion! I would have given 5 stars but the folks in the booth next to us were so obnoxiously loud that distracted from the overall experience one should have at a lovely restaurant such as Rubino's.
