    The lamb chops were the star of the meal. Cooked to perfection, they were beautifully seared on the outside, creating a delightful crust that locked in the juices. Each bite was tender and succulent, with a rich flavor that was enhanced by a delicate blend of spices. The seasoning was spot on, allowing the natural flavor of the lamb to shine while adding just the right amount of warmth and depth. The presentation was equally impressive, with the chops elegantly arranged on the plate, garnished with fresh herbs that added a pop of color.

    Lovely, steak was exceptional. Pricey, but you get what you pay for. Our service was spot on and you guys never disappoint. As far as ambiance, dark and sultry just how we love it. I ordered the Kosar and will probably get again as it comes with lobster too so you get a lil mix of things. When we arrived we saw that there was no happy hour as it was Valentines Day and we had a time limit of 1.5 hours to be done. I didn't really love that but I get it. As it turned out we were out of there in 1.25 hours and never felt any pressure to leave either. Just a great restaurant that we'll always come back to. Maybe our 3rd - 4th visit and my husbands favorite steak venue. We will always come back. thank you for taking care of us so expertly. Elizabeth Longbrake

    This visit was kind of different. It was my 2nd time coming here and of course we were served nicely. Although I noticed the food was very salty. I had wine so it's kind of helping with that but it literally stings our tongue. We got the burger, wings, thai mussels and clam chowder. Overall it was nice, except for that salty food.

    My husband and I enjoyed an early Valentine's dinner last night. Once again Jeffy Ruby's was perfect! We enjoyed a wonderful bottle of wine and delicious food. Dave our server was excellent and attentive throughout the evening. His recommendations for dessert were spot on, I've never had the butter pie and so glad I chose it, perfection! Of course the steak and lobster were perfectly cooked and delicious, like I would expect from Jeff Ruby's high quality beef and seafood selections. We are already looking forward to dining here again and we are still talking about how great our meals were last night!
