    SUPER good food!! A rare find in La habra with great service! The interior design is just incredible

    Pancakes

    I had no idea that inside Ruby Red's is like going on a vacation and being on a ship. The windows outside make the place look closed but inside is so nice. Each booth has a beautiful water view in the "window." The service was amazing and made our brunch enjoyable. The breakfast menu is large. I had the pulled pork Benedict. The meat had just enough sauce and it was on a round, thick toasted bread that looked like a muffin. We also got 3 different pancakes: blueberry compote (it was yummy but the blue food coloring in the fruit cream was a bit too blue), lemon with coconut (my fav) and banana foster. I would have preferred more natural cream with no artificial coloring as they tasted really good. My friend ordered the pastrami with over easy eggs. It was pretty meaty and good too. Will definitely be back to try the bbq ribs and other menu items.

    Was here on Mother's Day. This restaurant has a western vibe-from the windows down to the ceilings all have a southern glam to it. Service is very warm and friendly. We got the Banana Foster Pancakes, which were fluffy and had a nice banana flavor. Next, was the assorted meats and brisket loaded fries. The meat was tender and had the right amount of seasoning, and the hot links had a nice snap to it. I recommend getting the cream of corn. The portions were nice and big. Overall, food was great!

    Second time here, from decor to the meat is fire . Service is good too. Both times there was a full house but no wait. So I can't truly call it a hidden gem even though it seems like it. Definitely a good place for a date or bday celebration. Need I say I'll be back?

    Food was really good! Portions were very generous. The place is so cute and nice. Very roadhouse like. To finish off the cookies were baked to order and warm. Amazing, servers were nice and friendly too.

    Inside the Peach Cobbler. Delish! $8.99.

    Great BBQ spot right in our backyard!!! Owner of the restaurant helped us out. It was surprisingly busy for a Thursday afternoon. We ordered the following: Shared a 2 meat combo with the Mrs. We opted for double Brisket sides of Mac & Cheese and a potato salad. $46.99. Ian wanted Brisket so he got himself a Texan Sandwich with Waffle Fries as his side. $23.99. Brisket was delicious! It was soo juicy, tender and melt in our mouth!! (+1) Ian devoured his Brisket sandwich. He was a teenager on a mission. Haha. (+1) Peach cobbler was decadent. Mrs. and I loved the fresh fruit in the dish! (+1) Mac & Cheese tastes home made and hearty. Potato Salad was light and savory. Price might appear a tad bit high BUT the portion, flavor and taste make it worth it! All and all it was a great lunch! We will be back. You guys should definitely try this restaurant out.

    Tonight my wife and I celebrated our birthdays together at our favorite BBQ place. It was a wonderful night. Kevin always greets us with a friendly smile. We were seated in the Mahogany table. Britian was our server. She was incredible. She really took care of us and had such a sweet spirit about her. The food as always is cook to perfection and the presentation is conversation stopping. Thank you Steve, Kevin, especially Britian for making our birthdays that much more extraordinary and the entire Ruby Red's BBQ family. It truly is our home away from home.

    Brisket breakfast plate

    This review is for breakfast only. We got a postcard from this restaurant we have never tried offering BOGO for breakfast which is my favorite meal. So we had to go. The interior is like a West World saloon. The breakfast choices were many for such a small place. You could see inside the kitchen a little and based how organized and spotless it is, couple with the ambitious menu items like Benedicts, predesigned omelets, and beignets, I knew we were in for a treat. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, fried green tomatoes, bacon and eggs plate. I had to as it was the only dish on the menu that featured southern gravy. When it came out I got really excited. The scrambled eggs and bacon looked standard. The tomatoes were perfectly golden brown and looked thick like crab cakes. The B&G platter was enormous - just the way I like it. The biscuits were completely covered with spotty chunky gravy. I believe it was smoked ham in a gravy that is housemade with sausage base. The biscuits underneath were the pan style cake-like biscuits and not the flaky buttermilk kind, but they were very good. The eggs were uniformly yellow and soft scrambled. The bacon was fully rendered but not crisp. Many people like their scrambled eggs soft and their bacon chewy, so no problem here. Just note to order "well done" for both next time if that's what you like. My dining partner ordered the brisket breakfast with pancake. Again, multiple plates - enough for two people - came out. The eggs were perfectly medium. The potatoes were expertly cubed, deep fried, then roasted with onions and two colors of bell peppers. Someone forgot to season them but after I salted them, they were perfect. The mound of brisket was impressive - at least half a pound of gorgeous beef with two bbq sauces on the side. The brisket tasted of smoke right away - I like beef forward then smoke aftertaste but I've been to Texas a lot. This is still very good and 10/10 for Orange County. The pancake brought back memories of the bran muffin from Claim Jumper. I could taste the buckwheat, or is it molasses, in the pancake? Whipped butter and maple syrup on the side in its own dishes instead of a sticky dispenser. Nice touch. The cooks, our server and the proprietor of this beautiful restaurant make me glad they sent that postcard. I will be back soon for sure. The leftovers we took home made two more meals so I would say even the pricing is right.

    Saloon area at Ruby Red recently

    We had a group of 10 for our belated "holiday" dinner celebration at Ruby Red recently. Food was great, we ordered the "feast" and the accompanying sides. Our server Amanda was great and very helpful! The protein portion of our meal was very generous but "made from scratch" sides were much smaller for the amount of people at our table. One of our friends had been to Ruby Red several times and recommended this place to our group. I loved the salon ambiance there and thought it was befitting to the Ghost Town area of Knott's Berry Farm. Overall it was a satisfying visit. Looking for to my next visit here!

    I had seen this restaurant before from the outside, but had never tried it. From the outside, you have no idea how different it looks inside! I would describe visiting this restaurant as an amazing immersive experience! The moment you step inside you are no longer in south cal! They have plenty of parking nearby and have their host(ess) right at the entrance. They have 2 main seating areas and a bar top. These areas have booths which include screens displaying sceneries or stand alone tables. Even the restrooms are on theme! The tables are super unique and some have a plaque which shows the type of wood it was made out of. They offer brunch and dinner menus. We have only tried their menu, but brunch looks interesting. The staff were super helpful on both occasions that we have visited and service was great. On our first visit we went for a combo with 3 meats and 2 sides. We LOVED everything we tried! We had brisket, sausage links and ribs. When you get the combo, you get the different sauces which are all very unique on their own way. My favourite was the hot one. For the sides, the chilli was amazing with brisket in it! The potato salad was very refreshing. We added the cornbread which was really good as dessert. Overall it was such a great first experience that we had to be back! We came back for a small meal so we decided to share the brisket French fries and they were AMAZING! We did ask for an extra sauce as we felt like we wanted more. Because we had shared that, I had room for dessert and ordered the beignets. They were big and tasty. This restaurant also has frequent customer club so don't forget to sign up and earn points for your visit! They also have a senior menu for brunch which is really reasonably priced. Keep in mind they do not open Monday and Tuesday. I can't wait to be back and try other stuff!

    First time here. The food was very good my favorite was the larger rib & sweet butter! Brisket salad was perfect. The service was great very attentive & fast. The decor was so old school cowboy. Perfect for a messy cute rib date. Definitely recommend! . The only thing is NO cocktails .

    Decorations and signage

    This restaurant transports you visually to an old saloon in Texas. Great decor and terrific service. The food was outstanding especially the brisket and rib (both pork and beef). What an amazing experience. Highly recommend and would come back multiple times.

    Do you serve baby back ribs?

    Hi Michael. We don’t use baby back ribs. Other restaurants do since they can cook them quickly, but our slow-smoked St. Louis ribs are even better — they’re meatier, more flavorful, and come out extra tender from our low-and-slow smoking process.… Read more

    Are there gluten free options available?

    The menu is available on their website. See for yourself.

    Do you offer any Brunch specials like unlimited mimosas?

    We currently do not offer unlimited Mimosas but that’s a great idea! if you were running the restaurant, what would you charge for unlimited Mimosas?

    1. What time does brunch end?

    Great question. Currently we stop taking breakfast orders around 12. However, for Easter, we will be serving breakfast through 2 PM. We may also extend breakfast options in the future depending on demand. Thanks for asking. Steve Williamson

    Do you do catering? If so, how far will you go? Our business is in Irvine near the Spectrum?

I opted for the soup because it was Friday and they had clam chowder. Soup was decent, typical diner clam chowder with crackers. It could have been a little hotter, but I enjoyed it. The burger and fries were the star though! The burger was juicy and cooked perfectly and the bacon added a great flavor. Fries were crispy and salted well. Almost forgot I also got an egg roll to try because it had been so long since I had one from here. It's huge! Super crispy outside and a nice amount of filling. They give you hot mustard and what I thought was ketchup but honestly I'm not too sure. Either way, they were great mixed together to dip your egg roll into. My waitress was pleasant and attentive which I appreciate. My booth was a bit saggy so I'm going to have to go back again and try a new booth each time till I find the perfect one.
