Gordo’s Way

Just found a new treasure! Found Ruby's by chance at lunch while driving thru area (there was a…read morepicture of oysters on Yelp, so knew it was more authentic Mexican food) and we were blown away! I had a Ruby's margarita, hubby got a Gold, both were on the rocks, refreshing and didn't taste like that gross sweet and sour mix so many places use. Ordered a bowl of Carne con Queso and added fresh chopped jalapeños. It was tasty, but just okay. The salsa that came with the chips was pretty mild, but chips tasted freshly made. The real highlights were the seafood dishes: Pico de Gallo Fresco (fresh shrimp and octopus with pico de Gallo), a ceviche type preparation and Puerto Vallarta (9 shrimp prepared 3 ways). Each dish came with lettuce, pico de Gallo, cucumber and lime. Mine had a well seasoned side of rice, which mixed great with the fresh veggies, especially after we added extra lime and jalapeños. A real surprise was the scoop of potato salad that came with each plate: think street corn, potatoes, and poblano peppers. There was a reasonable looking lunch buffet locals were enjoying. Staff was pleasant, place was clean and prices are reasonable. We'll be back to try the Campechana next time!

Great food! Exceptional staff that are very accommodating. Add to that, very affordable to boot!…read moreI'm from out of town but needed a place to feed friends and family after a funeral. Reynaldo and his crew were kind and provided a great experience for nearly 50 guests during a typically busy time of day for them. They made everything feel seamless. We've vowed to always have a meal here whenever we visit Albertville. Please check them out. The food is delicious, the service is good and you won't be disappointed!

I wish I took pictures of the taquitos as they were almost hollow and seriously overfried and borderline impossible to eat. My companion never complains about food, I would have sent it back. My cheese relino had no cheese in it and ground beef on top then smothered in cheese dip. The combo came with a taco which was fine, but a hard taco is difficult to screw up so I can't give too much credit there. Service as also meh as the same person/manager was seating new customers, checking out tabs at the front, and doing to go orders, which created lines of people at the front door where the register was located. Our server may have new, but was a very polite fish outta water, and it took 25 mins to get food. He did check 3 times while we waited for food to ask if 'you guys are still ok', so I guess there was that. There were plenty of mexican restaurants in the area, I will not try this one again on our next pass through the area.

My husband even said that if he wasn't craving wings so badly, we would have walked out. The bartender seemed more interested in chatting with friends or coworkers on the other side of the bar than serving customers. Eventually, we got our drink order taken, but when I asked for salt on the rim of my beer glass, it took forever to receive it, clearly due to a lack of training on how to properly pour a beer. The food was not only cold but also of poor quality. When we pointed out that our order was incorrect, we were dismissed and told we were mistaken, with the response, "the lighter brown ones are the other sauce." Overall, this experience was incredibly disappointing for a BW3. It's unacceptable and definitely not what we expected. The restaurant is your typical B-Dubs bar layout.

Upon arrival, I marveled at the beautiful decor and how fast we were greeted and seated. Our server Joshua, was attentive and quickly placed our drink orders. The complimentary salsa was some of the best I've had. The salsa was chilled perfectly and very fresh. The veggies were perfectly chopped and crunchy just how I like it. My virgin daiquiri was great as well and was very eye-pleasing. After placing our food order, it did not take long to come out. Both of us agreed that our food was pretty good overall. My friend wasn't overly impressed. He said it wasn't anything to write home about. My quesadilla was a little...watery...not sure if it was from the meat or the veggies. I've had better to be honest. But overall, I would definitely visit here again to try another dish. If you're in the area, check out Julia's Mexican Restaurant.

This would have been 5 stars but the service, while very friendly, was slow. The restaurant is missing a bet when the server doesn't even ask if we wanted drink refills. Obviously, the servers were overburdened. Still, highly recommend it.
