    NY 18 oz. Bone In New York Steak
    Andrew H.

    I walk in and sit in the bar area. Everything is portioned well, drinks, sides, entrees. Prices are reasonable. I switched it up and ordered the 20oz. Prime Rib with the Jacketed Baked Potato. Our server Mari was fantastic.

    Dirty floors

    Dang... this used to be a favorite place. I used to bring my friends here after today. I will never come back. The table was dirty. The floors were gross and dirty. The service was terrible, I saw my waiter twice. the Caesar salad which I should've taken a picture of was horrible, the cheese on it was hard. The cheese was brown. I couldn't eat it. Been here for an hour. I do have a drink and I have my salad lol can't eat that still waiting for my food. If it wasn't so filthy in here I probably could overlook some of this stuff. This disgusting. I'm just gonna take my food home and eat it hopefully it's not gonna make me sick.

    The restaurant was clean and inviting. Our server was friendly and attentive. The filet mignon skewers were excellent. The meat was tender and cooked to perfection. This is a great steakhouse for locals.

    We haven't been back here for quite awhile; trying out different establishments in Reno. Food still great and service good ! Sourdough to start. Today we got the 10oz Garlic butter Sirloin with asparagus and broccoli as sides (Yum) and 16oz Ribeye. I requested more garlic butter to put on my veggies; which to me made it pop. We had enough room for dessert so we tried Ruby's cookie (which the cookie tasted undercooked / mushy. I prefer a firmer cookie). Overall still good steakhouse !

    If you follow my reviews you know I've been in a Birthday club with the same girls for 36 years. Tonite is the night to celebrate Patti's 60th. To be honest I haven't been to the Ruby River since the last Birthday party when Shannon turned 40 so it's been awhile. I had the garlic top sirloin, it was delicious and the meat melted into your mouth. I wish my onions could have been grilled longer and really my one piece of asparagus could have used a few more friends on my plate. Everyone enjoyed their food and service was excellent. We made a reservation for 8 and got seated right away. All of our dinners came out at the same time and for a table of 8 there were no issues other than more asparagus. The last time we were there you would throw the peanuts on the floor but it seems like they removed that type of atmosphere and the restaurant was going more for the classy steakhouse vibe. When we left there was a huge wait in the front! Glad we made a reservation. I highly advise it. Oh by the way they didn't include the gratitude for a large party and I thought that was extra nice. We always give more anyway.

    A nice place with reasonable prices. Good food at prices that won't break you. Saw a number of families sharing. A full bar with decent wine selection. Might call ahead on evenings and weekends.

    I cannot wait to come back and visit Lily and hope I get her again as a waitress. This was my first time here and she made my visit so enjoyable. What an adorable waitress with good humor and positive energy. She had that sweet Texas charm and made sure I was taken care of. I could have stayed there all night eating and chatting with her as she checked on my table. I really enjoyed the dark, quiet, and intimate nature of the place filled with our voices as I asked her things about the menu. Overall the food was fiiire! Steaks seasoned to perfection, delicious soup, ranch, and sides, and pretty good prices. The ambience is lowkey and intimate and sometimes you want that when the workd is so loud and crazy. I love you Reno, I will return! Thanks for the delicious food and amazing service. Oh, the table bread 10/10 stars! Yumm! 8-oz ribeye 5/5 stars 10-oz ribeye 5/5 stars Side lobster tail add on 1/5 stars. This was not good at all and didn't taste like lobster. My friend said maybe the quality or cut wasn't good because you couldn't really tell you were eating lobster at all. French onion soup 5/5 stars Garden salad 5/5 stars Bartender 5/5 stars Server Lily from Amarillo, TX 10/10 stars

    We decided to go here instead of eating at the Peppermill casino and we were not mad at all about it. There will probably be a wait if you don't make reservations, but you can try your luck with a seat at the bar to bypass that. Super reasonably priced and you get a ton of food. Their sides were the highlight for me. Anything potato always gets me. The service was really great too.

    I love this Steakhouse over any other steakhouse in Reno. It has a really homey feel to it, not a franchise. I always order the porterhouse. It is cooked exactly how you ask for it. Great Date night place to go, I don't mind how much the food is because it is always delicious. We ordered two porterhouse dinners comes with two sides. I also added jalapeno poppers and calamari, The calamari is very tender and the poppers are poppers. I also had the mashed potatoes with white gravy and it also is very different and delicious.

    Ok, this is our second time to try Ruby River. I wasn't impressed the first time but..... gotta give it a try again. Ruby River is a small chain restaurant and this is the only one in Nevada while there are others in Utah. Our server (her first night solo) did amazing!! Cannot remember her name, probably due to the darn good margarita! Ok, our orders were Chicken with a raspberry glaze. From what I was told it was very tasty, but the chicken breast l's were a bit dry. The rest of us ordered rare prime rib. Ok, this is a steakhouse, and you would think prime rib would be top notch (same as I had on my last visit) un fortunately the results were very similar. Three orders of prime rib, rare, two baked potatoes one rice. The rice was tasty and made correctly, and the huge stuffed baked potatoes were insane! They deep fry a crust on their bakers which takes it to anew level. Oh , yeah there was also prime rib. We were told prior to getting our meal that we were lucky that we got the last prime rib. Oh boy!!! I expected them not to be rare, but to my surprise they were served rare/medium but closer to rare, so good on them. The prime rib had shaved horseradish on them(nice touch), but all was lost once I dug in to my meal. I ordered a 16 oz rib and possibly took off five ounces of gristle. The Au Jus was ok, kind of missing the full taste it should have. The rest of the prime rib was not very tender as I would have expected. Ok, the meal was ok, just ok! After two attempts of exactly the same meal with the same results. I'll be heading through Utah this summer and not stopping at Ruby River. The drinks were great though!

    Unfortunately the food here is going downhill. It's happening slowly over the years. We eat here 2 or 3 times a year, usually with friends because we like the location and environment. 5 years ago it was consistently a great experience. Nowadays the food lacks flavor, quality and the portion sizes are small. Steaks tonight were chewy, my beer was flat and the salmon was dry and tasteless. My wedge salad was excellent!

I was blown away and slightly overwhelmed by how big this buffet was. There were so many options and different cuisines to choose from! We tried a bit from each station and the food was decent but one complaint I would have is that everything was really salty. One place that stood out to me was the pho station. I had no expectations and didn't think it would be as authentic as Vietnamese restaurants. However, it was pretty legit in my opinion! It had a good flavored beef broth. The rice noodles were cooked perfectly, al dente and not soggy. It's basically a DIY pho bar. The sever working the station was pretty rude though. I was a bit confused on how to place the order and instead of helping me, she gave me an attitude. The staff comes by regularly to take away any empty/dirty plates. I highly recommend checking this place out. Definitely come hungry!

Service was perfect from beginning to end, and the beautiful ambiance with Hawaiian seascapes playing across the large TV screens made the whole experience feel relaxing and upscale at the same time. One of those meals that feels elegant while still being total comfort food 10/10 for making it right and delivering such a great dining experience.

The biscuits were super soft and moist. The gravy was a perfect consistency. A good amount of sausage without being overwhelming plus a thickness that sticks to the biscuit perfectly for a good mashing of the flavors. My son had Gambi's scramble. He said the eggs tasted weird but I had to point out that it has cream cheese which he did not notice so that is more of a him thing. Lol. I tried it personally I think it's a good mixing of flavors. The cream cheese texturing makes it a little weird if you are not expecting it. But good flavor. We both loved the potatoes that came with it had a little crisp one the outside and they we're NOT mushy on the inside. Still a slight firmness inside. Overall, very good. Server was amazing AGAIN. (different server than last time so this shows a consistancy of good servers) very happy, helpful, and positive mood. I'll be making another visit here for sure!
