My wife and I were celebrating my retirement after 37 years with the company I worked for and we knew Jeff Ruby’s would provide a special dinner experience to make it a great night. They did not disappoint! The food was wonderful and everything first class! Our waiter Jorge was fantastic. Thank you to Jeff Ruby’s!

We have a lovely server Katelyn (hopefully I spelled it right) dinner and Christmas atmosphere were amazing! We sat by the server entrance though to the dining room and there must have been an expo or chef that was trying to entertain. He was very loud and you could hear every conversation he had. Didn’t ruin the experience but it disrupted the atmosphere a bit. We will be back because we love our Christmas and birthday tradition, we will just try and request a table away from that area

Ambiance was festive. Food was exceptional. Grace was attentive to our needs. Upstairs was nice but noted some guests were a bit loud.

We had lunch reservations for our 47th anniversary. We were immediately seated on arrival, and promptly greeted by our server Mark. He was happy to be part of our celebration, and shared his favorite recommendations on the menu. So many choices! We had spaghetti with Sunday Sauce, butternut squash ravioli, veal cutlets, salad wedge, freshly baked bread, and of course, wine. Everything was delicious. Thanks for making our anniversary a special day! We will definitely be back. T & C Lane

We went to lunch to celebrate my wife’s birthday and were immediately impressed by our server, Chrissy, and her knowledge of the menu and wine pairings. The ambiance was intimate and soft at the beginning, but between the house music and the increasing number of patrons, it became quite loud. Still, the food and attention to detail were the stars of the show. The eggplant parmigiana, tagliatelle al prosciutto, and the Italian Stallion cocktail were among the best of the afternoon. To finish, a complimentary donut served with a delicate salted caramel sauce brought the birthday celebration to a special level. We highly recommend and we will return for another great experience!
