    My wife and I have dined at Jeff Ruby’s a few times over the years. One of the finest establishments that I have ever been in. From the moment you walk in the door you will be amazed at the ambience. When it is time to eat you will have the best steak of your life. Every side dish is amazing (especially those tater tots) and you can’t forget a piece of butter pie! Special shout out to Andrew and Lupe who worked hand in hand to make sure our experience was amazing as usual. See you again soon!!!

    Great experience as always. Sarah was extremely cordial and engaging! Cole did a great job serving our table and had a great amount of knowledge of Italian wines and helped us pair a Super Tuscan with our various courses! The food is always so great and was especially great last night!

    Our evening could not have been better. The service was friendly and attentive. Waiter, bartender, and sommelier responded to all our requests and went above and beyond, dividing our entrees since we shared two, finding the right wine when our first choice was unavailable and making an excellent mule! Appetizer of mussels was excellent. The two pasta specials were delicious, sea bass and gnocchi. On a snowy night it was cozy and relaxed.
