    Bourbon chicken with Mac and zucchini
    Kelly K.

    I was really excited when I saw this spot open up, and the menu sounded pretty appealing and simple which I like, but after two visits, I feel let down. I've tried - bourbon chicken with rice, mac & cheese and "veggies" which is just zucchini spears, the chicken was dark meat and very fatty, there was too much sauce getting all over the rest of the sides and the flavor was kind of bland too, the mac & cheese was kind of dry and plain, and the zucchini was fresh but probably could have been grilled a little more - jerk chicken with rice, macaroni salad, and zucchini spears, again the chicken was a bit fatty but the marinade was pretty tasty, the salad was solid, same deal with the zucchini The portions are pretty good for the prices, so you can save some leftovers for the next day if you wish. I'm all for supporting local businesses, and I'd stop by again if in the area, but it's not going to be a regular as I find the food to be so-so.

    Urban chicken over rice with a side of potatoes and coleslaw.

    I came here on a two Thursday evening to get dinner to go. The staff and Owner are very friendly and accommodating. The food portions and quality are fair for the price. I ordered the bourbon chicken with potatoes and coleslaw as my sides. The food took about five minutes to prepare. It was heaping out of the container. The potatoes were perfectly fried and had just the right amount of seasoning. The coleslaw was OK, but could use some alternative flavor. The chicken was perfectly cooked and was well flavored served on a bed of white rice. The restaurant was clean and had seating for about 15 people. I will come back to enjoy other dishes.

    Customer service, super great! The employees are incredibly kind and it felt welcoming/east to order. Reviews really hyped up this place and the menu is pretty interesting with all the different options. The food was fine, not my favorite. It felt like something I could easily make at home and nothing was mind blowing. I don't foresee myself craving food from here and don't think I would come back. But again, customer service is great! And it is small inside, but seems like a good place to grab a quick bite.

    A new eatery hats off to them for having the mindset to say kiss my ___ Covid. They have a simple and straight forward menu which I hope to sample more of in the future. We ordered the Ruby and the Jed and both sandwiches were filled with generous ingredients. The place was clean but maybe little dark for midday. There is dining inside as well as a couple of tables outside also. Our sandwiches were ready in just a couple of minutes and handed to me with a smile and a thank you. Generous portions, fair pricing and delicious ingredients. I will be returning to try other items on the menu. Welcome to the area.

    Chicken Strips & Fries
    Jordan J.

    I came on a Wednesday afternoon and it was decently busy but nothing crazy. Awesome customer service, very friendly and answered all the questions I had. I love chicken strips and fries! So glad these fries weren't soggy and had the perfect amount of seasoning and crisp to it. I also love that they had great ranch and spicy aïoli sauces to dip the fries and chicken in. There are tons of options on the menu with lots of variety, something for everyone for sure.

    This is the cutest little spot for a delicious lunch! I ordered the medium jerk chicken bowl with rice, veggies and Mac salad. It was very good! The medium size is a good portion and filling. They also have breakfast items. The shop is small but cute and colorful! The staff was very friendly! I will definitely return to try more bowls!

    Inside decor

    Small little hole in the wall spot. Just a couple of tables available inside due to size. Easy for a quick bite but nothing over the top impressive. Staff was courteous to your face, although could easily overhear vulgar conversation in the back as it is a very small shop (doesn't offend me much but I can see that being quite off putting to others and less than inviting). Bourbon chicken bowl had good flavor. Side potatoes are sliced in small rounds and some were ok but otherwise they were disappointingly soggy. The Cajun grilled zucchini were fantastic and I wish they would've offered a greater serving of this, and/ or more expansive veggie options. Also snagged the bourbon chicken tacos which were tasty but could be better with just a little less of the spicy aioli (unless you like a heavy mayo/ sauce), and if the tortillas were grilled to give it that extra upscale feel. Overall would stop here again if in need of a simple and quick option but nothing stood out beyond that for me, personally. (No pictures of the food itself since I had to take it to-go).

    Nashville Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich, Bourbon tacos, Mac and Mac & Cheese
    Ethan H.

    Ruby's is a must. Just outside of Denver, but definitely worth the trip. Everything from the quality of the food, the time to make it, and the service, this place is great. I highly recommend! Ps. The mac and cheese is the only thing I didn't fully enjoy.

    We were up for trying something we haven't had before so we decided to try Ruby Ru's as it was one of the higher rated places that offered delivery through Yelp. We ordered the medium jerk chicken bowl with Mac salad and a large bourbon chicken bowl with Mac and cheese and veggies. Everything was a 12/10, great taste on everything. The only reason this is getting 4 instead of 5 stars is because I was partway through the jerk chicken veggies when I realized the Mac salad was completely missing from the container. Unfortunately, there's not much they can do when you order delivery through Yelp. We'll order again but we'll pick it up to double check our order before we leave the restaurant. Based on other reviews, I was really excited to try the Mac salad so I'll order again even if just for that.

    Large French fries with ranch

    I have gotten food from Ruby Ru's before and it was one time prior. I had ordered the Banh Mi bowl last time and it was delicious. This time I ordered the street tacos and a side of french fries. The first taco I had was delicious and I love the sweetness of the pineapple inside of it. When I was diving into my second taco and started to chew, all the pieces of chicken were fatty and almost felt like pieces of a tendon. That instantly made me a little nauseous, and I'll be taking the other one home to my family, since I don't like wasting food. The French fries had lots of flavor and were a little salty which I didn't mind because I tend to like them as such. The ranch though, was extremely salty, and maybe I got an off batch of ranch but I was unable to eat the ranch with the fries. Everyone there is very nice and the service is wonderful, but I don't think I'll be returning, unless it's just for the Banh Mi bowl I had the time prior.

The sound and the joy gave off such a great vibe immediately when walking into this establishment. This review is based on a sit down dinner and a take out on another night because our sit down was so good! Here's all that we tried: POST CHEDDAR BISCUITS - hot and cheesy - these were not as flakey as they looked like they were going to be. Not bad, but nothing to write home about. ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS - sweet and spicy peppers, garlic mojo, cotija cheese | *a portion of sales from this item go to Zero Foodprint -- an org working to combat climate change in the food & beverage industry - these were good, great crispiness, char was flavorful and the sauce was sweet and tangy. Subsequently, I made a hash for breakfast with leftovers from here and these proved to be GOOD flavoring. GREEN CHILE BISON SAUSAGE BOARD (LAFAYETTE) - Rock river bison sausages, hard boiled eggs, dill pickles, bread and butter pickle relish, baked baguette, peach honey mustard - I'm a sucker for charcuterie, the bison sausage was so delicious, I ordered another after we finished the first. This also went into the next day hash! FRIED HALF CHICKEN - our famous gluten free fried chicken, choice of side, pickles, and a biscuit - ordered this on or second visit (takeout night) and did not regret a thing. It was fantastically fried to crispy perfection. The chicken was juicy and tasted like they brined it in pickle juice. CHICKEN TENDERS - all natural tenders, breaded and fried, served with ranch - good chicken, also went into the hash. OG POST BURGER*- american cheese, bacon onion jam, special sauce, griddled sourdough english muffin & fries - good burger, personally, I'd appreciate better cheese! QUINOA & KALE - quinoa, kale, arugula, roasted sweet potatoes, pickled red onions, roasted tomatoes, cucumbers, toasted sesame and sunflower crunch, lemon tahini dressing - the dressing MADE this salad, good job Chef! PUEBLO GREEN CHILE MAC & CHEESE - nothing spectacular, I would have liked this with more green chile and a better cheese base. The parking isn't a lot, but it didn't seem like people had trouble at all. We walked. It's a great little neighborhood restaurant. As I said early on, it was tasty enough to warrant a second visit!

The chicken, which is supposed to be the signature dish was overcooked and dry. The huevos rancheros and breakfast burrito were good, but not great. We've had better.

I completely don't remember what everyone ordered but I DO remember all the things I tried at the table. Tater Tots - parmesan & chives / house onion sour cream - nothing outstanding about this but the kids/teens/young adults LOVED it and may have inhaled it in one breath. Roasted Cauliflower - saffron cream / chermoula / sumac / miso aioli / crispy onion - the saffron cream was a nice touch of essence and the crispy onion brought a good sweetness and texture to the dish. Honey Bourbon Wings - fried chicken wings / honey bourbon glaze / dill pickles - this was FABULOUS, good fry, not burnt and the glaze was perfect, not ooey gooey sticky, just sticky to the touch. Wild Boar Bucatini - wild boar ragu / cured egg yolk / parmesan / chives - this was my dinner order. I'm always excited when there's bucatini on the menu. It just holds enough sauce in the hollows to satisfy me. The ragu was cooked well, good sauce maybe it needed just a little pinch more of salt for my liking. Parking in the neighborhood is not difficult. We had an airbnb down the street and walked here in less than 5 minutes. There's indoor and outdoor seating as well as a covered patio-ish area. Definitely coming back next time I'm in Lafayette!
