The menu follows a Southern-fried meat-and-three concept, meaning diners order a meat, plus three sides. Those will include Ruthie’s mac and cheese, of course, but also white-soy-braised greens, stewed chickpeas and smoked cauliflower with a spicy soy glaze. “We’re going to be changing it a lot based on seasonality,” Hill says of the menu. “ Every vegetable has got to be fantastic because it has to stand on its own.” One thing that will help that: Hill is already growing all of the restaurant’s own herbs at his South Arlington community garden plot.

Once again, Ruthie's All-Day made a terrific impression on our out-of-town guests - who wish they had a similar restaurant in their own neighborhood. Our group of four sampled regular menu favorites (smoked duck, roast chicken, healthy grain salad with grilled salmon) as well as one of the daily specials - grilled rockfish. We encouraged our guests to save room for dessert, and they enjoyed the campfire cookies, in-house ice cream and butterscotch pudding. Our friends now wish they lived in South Arlington!

I love the redo of the old Liberty Tavern. The smoked baby back ribs were excellent. I didn't go for Happy Hour but heard it was one of the best around. I will definately go back.
