Amazing food at a good price with a friendly staff and great atmosphere. Would recommend and we…read morewill eat at Ruby-Gin again

We had the wonderful opportunity to share this experience with you. Stopped by to check out the…read morearea. We could not pass up the opportunity. Road trip! I was a little bit baffled where I was going. I was assured that we were going the right way. Being it has been a while since I had been here. Pensacola is well known for home of the Blue Angels and a big navel installation. They have a wide variety of restaurants and stores if you get the opportunity to explore the area. The beach is great! Enjoy the semi-calm clear waters of Gulf of America. We all were craving for some Filipino food. They said this restaurant is highly recommended and we should check it out. Cannot pass up the opportunity to check it out for ourselves. It is off the main road. It appears to be a an old Pizza Hut. As I turn off the main road to the street. It kinda springs up on you as drive a block away and on the right. Of which I was driving at the time. I was confused by it. It looked closed. By few amounts of vehicles in the parking lot. I was advised we pulled in the back of the restaurant. We should loop around to the front of it. As we came around. The scene looked way better. A lot more activity. From this angle the place looked way better. My assumption that the back of restaurant was for the employees and that is why it looked so inactive. As we came in, the staff were very friendly and helpful. They greeted us and as asked if we wanted to order to go or dine in. We mentioned that we wish to dine in. They said we were welcome to sit anywhere we like. I noticed that the people ahead of us are regulars. The staff knew them by name and they know to just come in and sit. The atmosphere feels like a warm welcome to family you have not seen in a while. They have table seating in the middle and larger tables to accommodate large groups of people. The table seating is hard metal seats with soft cushions on the bottom. With looks to very comfortable booth seating surrounding the outside of the lobby. Of course it cannot be a traditional Filipino restaurant without karaoke. They offer karaoke nights. We so overwhelmed by the amazing dishes that they offer. We were advised they were all delicious. With that being said, since we could not decide. We decided to do family style and order little bit of everything. I will be honest with you, I was a little disappointed when they asked me what I like to order to drink. I asked for a traditional coconut drink out of actual coconut. But unfortunately they said they sold out recently for today. So I had to settle for a mango nectar out of a can and water. I was baffled when they bought out the mango juice was a small can. I am glad that I ordered a water on the side. I was thirsty. They had so many delicious things to choose from. We had to get the Crispy Pata - Crispy pata is a Filipino pork dish featuring a whole pig leg that is boiled until tender and then deep-fried for a signature golden, crunchy texture. This popular specialty is often served as a main course. We got the Bangus- Bangus, also known as milkfish, is the national fish of the Philippines, celebrated for its delicate flavor and versatility in various dishes. It is commonly grilled, fried, or stewed, making it a staple in Filipino cuisine. (The bones are eaten too and not a choking hazard). Next was the Bistek Tagalog- Bistek Tagalog is one of the Philippines' most famous dishes. Its name comes from the Spanish words "bistek," meaning beefsteak, while "Tagalog" refers to the Filipino language. It's a simple yet profoundly satisfying dish in which marinated beef strips are the show's star. Of course, delicious Kare-Kare is a classic Filipino stew with tender oxtail and vegetables in a rich peanut sauce. It's a comfort food that's hearty and full of savory flavor. A favorite for everyday family dinners or special occasions!. Round out the meal was definitely an order of Sisig- Sizzling sisig is a Kapampangan delicacy, commonly served as both an appetizer and a main entrée. While pork is traditional, served on a hot plate. As we ordered the wonderful food. You can take in the great smell of the food as they prepare it! I love how they pay attention to detail and have condiments for the sauce in Tagalog. As you look around and absorb the interior. It takes you back to the Philippines. With a karaoke machine in the corner. Overall, the food was delicious! I maybe little bit biased. Majority of it not easy to make. I am glad they offer it. Especially love the Bangus! The vinegar only enhances the flavor. Of course cannot forget the rice! Otherwise may loose your Asian card. Haha They offer military discount. However, it is only offered during the week only. If you are in the area. Stop by and give a try and see for yourself. I had a great experience. So will you
