Tonight was my wife and my first time dining at Jeff Ruby’s, and it was the greatest meal/experience that we’ve had. The live music was incredible for an entrance and throughout our meal. Angelica was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and an absolute joy. We were treated with a complimentary butter cake and it was divine. Thank you for allowing us to just celebrate life with you tonight.

We had the pork dumpling appetizer to share, along with my Lunch Steak Julienne, Fried Rice, Hibachi Vegetables, and Onion Soup, with hot green tea. My husband had Lunch Hibachi Shrimp, Fried Rice, Hibachi Vegetables, and salad, with Pepsi. It was our first time sitting at the bar in the lounge, we were celebrating our 32nd Anniversary. The service was wonderful, they kept our drinks full, and our food was delicious.

I will definitely be back. A great place to catch up with dad. It would also be a nice restaurant to take my a wife on a date. The atmosphere was causal but elegant. The food was fresh and delicious. I will definitely get the ribs appetizer again and the sushi was fantastic. Lots of good choices on the menu. Also they had a killer key lime pie. Service was great as well.

From the moment we pulled up to Valet to the moment we returned to our vehicle, everyone we came in contact with was excellent, from the valets to the hostess, and our waitress was absolutely amazing. Ally made the evening great. The food was prepared to perfection. We were celebrating a birthday and she took the time to make the evening special. Can’t wait to go back
