    Classic steakhouse but be specific with them when they box leftovers! I orders the surf & turf and had leftover of both the lobster & steak (only ate about 1/3 of each, in light of the apps we ordered)… the boxed the steak but NOT the lobster.. very frustrating & such a waste!

    The Surf and Turf special was delicious. Couldn’t decide on sides, Ashleigh recommended the Brussel Sprouts, they will be our go to side from now on. We shared the Carrot Cake, which was also delicious. Carlo and Johnny is our favorite restaurant when we want to celebrate, everything is always the best!

    When you have the opportunity to celebrate a special occasion it’s fun to go somewhere that You really enjoy!  Hank did a great job being our host for the evening and represented Jeff Ruby’s very well with his keen attention to detail. Thank you for always having great food and service , great ambience,  and providing a great backdrop for a beautiful evening (even on the coldest night of the year).

    I held our company holiday dinner at Carlo & Johnny, and was impressed with all aspects of the evening. Cameron was an incredible host and their dinner feature was an incredible value.

    We went to Ruby's to wish our son off to Kuwait for a year. He is in the military, and moms Bday. We pulled up to an absolutely beautiful building. It looked like it had just been built. We were greeted by the most professional lady. Maybe a little too stiff. A drink maybe would loosen her up. We were seated in the main parlor room. Where the gangsters hung out years ago and sold their liquor. A previous server told us that. She was ok. We were greeted promptly by a very friendly young man. His name was Beton I think. Our server was not far behind. His approach was very natural and sincere. His name is Nathan. Nathan started to guide us on our culinary journey. We started with drinks. My wife had this specialty crafted one of a kind cocktail. She loved it. I forgot what it was called. It was pricey tho, I think $21 dollars. We had wonderful appetizers. We had Moz "tatanka" Bufalo. They make the Moz in the house. And the A5 Wagyu meatball. Again, hand cut Wagyu in house. Dinner was straight forward but outstanding. Most of us had the in-house Prime cut filets. We only eat prime beef. Ruby’s only uses fresh ingredients! Nothing ever frozen or from a can. The side of asparagus was the best I have ever ever had! Fresh, very flavorful. Great color. Huge portion, like it was grown out back. The desserts were fresh. A diabetes nightmare. No fault to Nathan, he warned us about the size and decadence. He wasn’t wrong. Kevin the manager stopped, very nice, thanks! Not sure what happened to the blond GM? Ashley. My only feedback is about the bathrooms. O my gosh. I don’t think they have been touched in 30 years. And the free birthday celebration desert, well, just terrible. I know its free...but... I won’t leave a 4 star because of that even tho it might get me a $100 gift card. If it wasn’t for the great service from Nathan, the little dislikes …well. Thanks Nathan. You made the experience.
