    We had an exceptional dining experience at Jeff Ruby’s Carlo & Johnny, and our server, Ashley, made it absolutely unforgettable. We were thrilled to be seated in her section again, as she had served us before and left a lasting impression. Ashley’s service was nothing short of impeccable—her attention to detail, professionalism, and warmth elevated our evening. She has an incredible ability to recommend the perfect cocktail, dessert, and after-dinner beverages, tailoring her suggestions to match our preferences perfectly. Her knowledge of the menu and drink offerings is second to none, and her recommendations truly enhanced our experience. The service at Carlo & Johnny is consistently the best in the city, and Ashley exemplifies the excellence that Jeff Ruby’s is known for. We’re already looking forward to our next visit and hope to see Ashley again. Thank you for another amazing night!

    Fantastic experience with both service and food. Nick, our server knew the best items and had great recommendations along with all food and drinks coming out in a very timely manner. 10/10 would recommend Embers for any occasion and if you have room, absolutely try the butter butterscotch pudding!
