    Our food and service were excellent! We ordered a little bit of everything including grilled and raw oysters, the chilli garlic prawns, arancini, salads, steaks, aragosta, risotto, green beans, wine, espresso martinis, olive oil cake, and tiramisu. Every single thing was to die for and I’d order it all again! The vibes were perfect for a Saturday night date night or even girls night out. We will definitely be returning again and again!

    The food was incredible from start to finish and our waitress was amazing too. Whipped ricotta, meatballs, gem salad, and butternut & mascarpone was to die for. The bartender struggled. It seemed like he may have been new but it took me 10 minutes or more to get a drink at the bar after I ordered it.

    Walked in, I was greeted in a very professional manner by a nice man. I was then walked to a table with my date, and then served water by a server. After this a separate server was explaining the menu to us, and we were told the most popular items. After given some time we put our order in and received our appetizer in a very timely manner. Shortly after finishing that, we then got our entrees, both delicious and extremely fresh. I might even say that in my 18 years of living this is the best meal I’ve ever had in my life, and I’m not even joking. We were then given a box (food was boxed for us and I didn’t even realize because the server we had was so quick and efficient). After this we got donuts and affogato and again, I was pleased to discover the dessert was just as good as the meal. 10/10 experience, setting was amazing, food was delicious, service was exemplary. Will definitely be back.

    Food and service was outstanding. The bright light atmosphere was not as relaxing. The noise level was louder than I expected. In comparison to our favorite celebration dinner venues I’d have to say I prefer those over Jeff Ruby. Those venues are Capital Grill and Jags.
