We were looking for something a little more low key than being herded through one of the usual CB dinner places, and Rubens fit the bill. Food was good, drinks were very reasonably priced and the place is friendly to locals and visitors alike. Service was very slow which was surprising since the restaurant was half full. They smother a... More

I grew up in southern New Mexico, and it's rare to find food so close to what I grew up with. Great tamales!! Great margaritas!! Great service!! What's not to like here? :D

We loved this place. Great local place. Food was great and the beans and rice side dishes were perfectly flavored. A definate must.

We used to live across the street from Ruben's. It is one of my favorite restaurants to either take the family, or if on a date with the Misses to get great tequila shots before playing hockey next door at the outdoor rink....

My husband and I came to Crested Butte to get away from the hustle and bustle of the "real" world and were told that the best Mexican in the town was Rubens.

We have eaten here twice this month! We were with two different groups of people and we all loved our meals! My family said they had the best chicken enchiladas they had ever tasted! Staff friendly owner always there! A must stop place!

2 for 1 house margaritas during happy hour, 4:30- 6:30 pm. Have been a few times and there may be a difference in the taste of the Margaret ( tasty, or no real taste). Went in June, marts were weak, went yesterday and they were so good, I had 2. Regardless of the margaritas, the Mexican food is good. There... More

This was convenient for us since we were renting a house in South CB. If you are in town, it is about 7 miles south on the way to Gunnison. We sat in a booth with perfectly vertical backs - rather uncomfortable sitting so go with a table and chairs. Very good margarita to start. The posole was good and... More

There are 3 parts to Crested Butte - Mt. Crested Butte (the ski area), Historic CB (downtown main street), and CB South. Ruben's is located in CB South, about ten miles South of downtown. While this is a bit of a pain if you live or are staying in the two other areas, the drive is well worth it. Allen... More
