Ruby’s 32 Cent Burrito
12.28.14
The celebration continues on Friday from 7 a.m. to 11 a.m. in honor of Ruby’s 32nd anniversary at Ruby’s Dinette in Costa Mesa! We know the 32¢ RubyBurger was a huge hit—almost 2,200 sold on December 19—so now Ruby’s is offering its full-size Breakfast Burrito at the same incredible price, for dine in or to go.
The Breakfast Burrito is a warm 9-inch flour tortilla layered with freshly scrambled eggs, grated Jack and cheddar cheese, and housemade salsa. One small catch: Limit one burrito per person and the 32¢ Breakfast Burrito is a la carte and does not include extras or sides. Available only at Ruby’s Dinette, the new Googie-inspired design and fast-casual concept on East 17th Street in Costa Mesa.
Ruby’s Dinette at 428 E. 17th St. in Costa Mesa.
