    We did the coffee lab tasting experience, which was so awesome! Damiel was so knowledgeable and helped us understand the tasting notes and explained the different ways the beans are processed. If we have the chance to go again, I would also want to do the tour and learn more about the process. It was great!

    Me & my friend did a galentines dinner here and the vibes were immaculate! We were given a rose upon arrival which put a smile on my face immediately. Our waitress was very attentive and all of our food and drinks came out in a timely fashion. The eggplant dip, sausage pasta & spicy vodka pasta were incredible! The yuzu margaritas were addicting! (tajin rim yktv) We work nearby so i’ll definitely be coming back :) Thank you Little Ruby’s!!!

    We wanted to eat somewhere close to the Tenement Museum, and we picked this. Lovely atmosphere in here. I had the crispy rice salad, and my companion and I split the banana bread. Both were delicious! It looks like a great bar to sit at as well. Servers were attentive but not overbearing.
