The atmosphere is classic French bistro meets upscale neighborhood gem. It was a busy brunch and they kept great service times.

I was gifted gift cards to this restaurant and it was delicious. The restaurant was pretty busy so you definitely want to make a reservation. We made a reservation and we were seated in the back room which was a little loud because the back room is a little bit smaller, but it was OK. The service was really quick and the food was delicious and cooked exactly how we wanted it. We ordered filet mignon with french fries and then also one of the filet mignon specials. We also got a dozen oysters, peppers and crabcakes. The crabcakes were absolutely delicious. I would 100% recommend getting those. read more

Been coming here on & off for years. Recent visit was very disappointing. Out of 2 dozen oysters, 2 were "iffy". C'mon...you're an oyster bar! Other dishes ordered were average, not fabulous. No finesse. Time to review your recipes & process! On the other hand waitress was great. read more

Food is not bad, extensive menu. Nice decor. The problem is the service is very slow and the waitress was just downright rude at one point. Said something to the hostess about it and she had zero sympathy. read more

My husband said it best - "I never want to be within 100 miles of Ruby's and NOT get to eat there!" This was his 2nd trip and probably 5th or 6th for me. They have a great cocktail menu and we got the ball rolling with some lovely libations. We love oysters, and Ruby's does not disappoint. We got 2 of each of the day's selections, in order to narrow down our favorites and take a deeper dive into a couple with a second dozen. I have developed a go-to order here, though I flirt with the idea of the fresh specials, it's almost always shishito peppers and steak frites (hanger steak) for me. Hubby enjoyed an order of escargot in addition to his steak frites. Brought back a care package of steak as we were full... alas, no room for dessert. We love the ambiance, it reminds us of our time living in Belgium and frequenting the brasseries there. Side note: I left my credit card and did not realize it. Before I ever noticed, the restaurant contacted me. Unfortunately we had already entered the Capitol Theater for a show and could not leave to retrieve, and were returning to PA after the concert. The manager graciously offered to mail my card, and it arrived expeditiously in our mailbox. Great service! read more

I received a gift card to this restaurant and decided to give it a try! The interior is so cute it feels as if you are in a French bistro! Very clean and spacious. They also have an upstairs area that is quiet and more intimate. Service was a little bit slow, however our server was very kind which made up for it. The food was great!! The oysters were delicious and I highly recommend the shishito peppers! I enjoyed the steak frites, and they cooked my steak perfectly! We all had a very delightful dinner and would come back!!! read more

Upscale French restaurant pricing, mediocre food at best. The pumpkin soup was probably our favorite part of the meal, but the French dip was simply atrocious. Came with pommes frites which were delicious, however a bite into the French dip and it was raw meat and fat inside. Couldn't chew through it, couldn't even cut through with a knife, had to ask for a replacement, which they did. However, upon returning my plate, my once crisp, dark, tasty pommes frites were now soggy, lighter fries. Ambiance was nice, staff friendly, so no complaints there. read more

Met my friends here for lunch. What a cute little bistro middle of town in Rye. You think your on the water when your inside. Greeted by Joe the waiter very warmly and he knows the menu inside and out Started with lobster wontons. Omg so crunchy outside with warm tender lobster with a creamy creme fraiche My Buddy had dozen assorted oysters which he said were wonderful all had different flavors. I had a warm lobster roll with fries. Lobster was cooked perfect and so tender. But lacked in flavor was very bland but u can tell great ingredients. Fries where great but seemed to be small parts of the bottom of the batch. . Wife had a blackened grouper sandwich. Fresh fish but not much flavor and wasn't blackened. Same with the fries Friend had Cobb salad with shrimp. She loves it shrimp so huge and tender Parking is tough but available . Def a place want to come back to really cute inside and good quality food. read more

Came here with a couple of friends last week and had an enjoyable experience. We sat in the upstairs room which was cozy and had an excellent waiter who was extremely friendly! For food we started with a couple of appetizers to share- Seafood Tower, peppers, calamari and escargot. I liked how they were able to give us both west coast and east coast oysters with the tower, the seafood was very fresh and the chilled lobster was great! The escargot was okay and the peppers were phenomenal! Didn't try the calamari but my husband seemed to enjoy it! For dinner I ordered the blackened swordfish with mushroom risotto- the risotto was absolutely delicious but found the swordfish to be a little dry for my liking but overall it was still a decent dish. My husband ordered the steak and could not stop talking about how amazing it was. In general it was a good experience and we would be happy to return! read more

Everything was really great! read more

My first visit back to this spot post Covid vaccination. One of my favorites when I first moved to Greenwich. I'm happy to report it is just as fantastic today, if not better then before. Today I chose the seating on the patio out back, because it was a sunny warm day. It has plenty of greenery to create a separate space from the parking and neighboring business areas. My server was attentive, friendly and always available. I started with the Jumbo Chicken Wings Confit and a Tito's and soda with lime. (I was after all celebrating my vaccination) The wings are amazing and literally fall off the bone and the buffalo flavor is spot on, not too spicy, not too mild, just perfect. I went with the chilled lobster roll for lunch, they offer either chilled or warm versions. What I really appreciated about the lobster roll was its cucumber slice along the bottom of the brioche bun. Unexpected, but adds a surprisingly nice complement to the sandwich. The portion was generous, and the lemon aioli on the side was a perfect addition. I actually used it to for my old bay pom frites, instead of ketchup, highly recommend you try it. Also the cleaning procedures I witnessed while I was there were impressive. After every table left, they thoroughly disinfected the table and even if it was only two people at a five person table, they immediately used disinfectant on every chair and replacement them before the next seating. I was super impressed. I'm looking forward to being a regular guest here again. Also, if you do choose to dine indoors, it's equally as fun. The aesthetic is super fun, the zebra wallpaper is great! read more

Very average food. I had fried oysters, they lacked flavor and seasoning. Average at best. And it is not inexpensive.

Absolutely amazing food and service. I went with my boyfriend on a Friday night before Christmas and it was all decorated for the holidays - so cute! Mike paid special attention to us during our reservation and we couldn't have been happier! Food came out super fast too. read more

Outstanding brunch. Great service, nice selection of brunch entrees. Will return to sample other meals, and the raw bar.

Always a great choice in Rye, NY! I've been here quite a few times and it's consistently good. Their food is fresh, seasonal, and delicious. My boyfriend is obsessed with their seared tuna blt! I've enjoyed everything I've ordered here and they have some of the best oyster. Only thing I could say is that I need to add extra watermelon in my watermelon salad in the summer, but it's one of my favorite things to order! read more

Went there on Friday night. Service was exceptional, very attentive, nice and friendly. They had a good drinks menu with nice wine and beer selections as well as cocktails. Food choices were nice as well, including nice sea food options and non sea food. We had sashimi, shrimp and guacamole for the appetizer and I had scallops for dinner. Everything was great. For dessert we had chocolate cake which was probably one of the best cakes of 2021. read more

Food was mediocre. Had the mussels and tuna tartar. Found a hair in my food actually but didn't say anything bc I didn't notice till the plate was almost done. Service was pretty good and sitting outside on a summer evening with a friend was pleasant. read more

What can I say about Ruby's. If you're in Rye and want to have an excellent casual meal or drink at the bar, this is my # 1 venue. Great choice of foods and drinks, and first class service, all set in a background of French ambiance. Highly recommended. read more

We had a phenomenal experience eating here last night. Almost didn't go because of the overall rating and that would have been a mistake. Among the best oysters we have had in westchester. My tuna tartare was excellent. We all shared the brussel sprout chips (it's crispy brussel sprouts and definitely a fan favorite). Our son devoured them! And they are very kid friendly and accommodated what he wanted to eat (butter noodles). Will be in our rotation for sure! read more

A favorite scores highly once again. We went in for a quick drink yesterday, and Scott the bartender once again was exceptional. The drinks were well poured, he was engaging and funny, and the fried oyster appetizer we had was excellent. We have yet to have a bad meal or experience here. read more

[Delayed Review] I'd just come back from summer vacation and still, had seafood on my mind. Menu seems nice. Though Ruby's swanky style, is more impressive. Almost stepping through time with touches of Paris: yellow walls, vintage French posters and red seating. With a large bar, exposed brick walls, lots of warm lighting and chandeliers- setting the mood for a romantic evening. It visually, hit the spot. With reservations, seating was smooth- but I'd imagine, it easily books up. Dozen raw oysters, were a good starter as were the Escargots and Cocktails that were mixed, quite well. My Lemon Sole entree was substantial, but in hindsight, it really didn't hit all those high notes for me: fish was tasteless. Béchamel tasted good- but was globbed on and somehow, just expected my dish to have more finesse. Apart from that presentation, my Chocolate Molten Cake, came out on top. Atmosphere is happy, with soft music in the background and nice service throughout the evening. We did dinner, nonetheless, you can get by with Ruby's sophisticated setting- for almost any time of the day with positive energy and that cute touch of French flair. read more

Been my go to restaurant for years. Lately -just not good. Service surly to say the least and the food has been average at best. Just left there after leaving most of my food untouched. The waitress never asked if we enjoyed dinner, just handed us the check. Writing this from a pizzeria where we finally ate decent food. I may not go back which saddens me but it isn't cheap and to leave hungry from unseasoned food is unacceptable to me. read more

A group of us came to Ruby's on a weekend evening as the COVID pandemic appears to be winding down. There were tables out on the sidewalk as well as (distanced) tables indoors. We elected to eat inside because there were plenty of open windows and doors, and the indoor ventilation system was in high gear. What I liked about Ruby's was it's great energy. All the diners seemed to be having a wonderful time. I liked watching the staff, who struck me as seasoned and competent; as far a I could tell, they had each seen everything and enjoyed working together as a team. I started with a glass of excellent IPA from Chatham Brewing while looking over the menu. The appetizer/salad list included two Asian-influenced items: General Tso's cauliflower ("Spicy Sweet Chile Sauce, Red Peppers, Scallions, Sesame Seeds") and a salad called Thai Peanut Noodles ("Shredded Vegetables, Pecans, Peanut Dressing, Pea Shoots, Dragon Aioli"). I went with the cauliflower. This appetizer would have been a good thing to share with a large group, but I ate the whole thing myself and ended up feeling grossed out by the overly sweet chile sauce. I segued to one of the specials -- an fettuccine dish made with fresh egg pasta, some sad-looking shrimp, artichoke pieces and a bunch of other stuff. Its description looked promising on the menu, but I thought that the dish didn't come together very well and I stopped eating with half of it still on my plate. (This was an extreme event because normally I scarf down everything in front of me.) Ruby's really could have been better. I settled on three stars because of its great atmosphere and the wonderful beer. If I return, I'll seek out the menu's simpler items, perhaps from the "lighter fare" section. read more

The Sound Shore city of Rye has its share of great dinning, Ruby's is one of them. After multiple visits it's evident the foods consistency and quality is always 100%. From the Seafood to the French Dip from the House Burger to the Apps. The place gets packed but personally the outside front tables and rear patio seating on a nice day is enjoyable. Watching the hustle & bustle of Purchase St. out front really is a great evening with great food & drinks. read more

Had a surprise birthday there last night. Invited about 12 people and they set us up at a very nice table. Can't say enough about the staff, all of whom were extremely accommodating and professional. We started off with a selection of delicious and properly shucked east and west coast oysters and fresh shrimp cocktail with good garnish. I had a hearty and generous Cioppino which I hadn't seen on a menu in a long time--a brilliant addition to any seafood restaurant's winter menu. Thanks again Team Ruby's for a great evening / event. read more

Had a really nice dinner recently at Ruby's. A fairly busy neighborhood "gem." We had a reservation (a Saturday night), but were running late (lots of people waiting for tables). They were able to accommodate us with no drama which was much appreciated. The menu was bistro-style (duh!), and the food was excellent. No problems with substitutions and the food came exactly as ordered. Our waiter was fun and helpful. We didn't want dessert, but indulged anyway. The toffee bread pudding was amazing and the cheesecake was excellent as well. Be sure to make a reservation! read more

The place has a great atmosphere. It is as French as French gets without the food. The place has a bit of an identity crisis, as they call the Boullaibaisse, "Seafood Cioppino". The Branzino is misspelled on the menu. They call it Bronzino. (Which is Italian) The service is simply atrocious! We asked for bread. It arrived after the meal and it was cold. We had to ask for cutlery. The waitress came to get the order and by the time my wife started speaking, she disappeared. The worst was my Hanger Steak. It came with a salad in the plate covered in blue cheese. It looked like a gyro vs. steak frites. My steak was cut up in pieces (rather than whole) and covered in peppercorn sauce mixed with blue cheese and dressing from the salad. My salad got hot from the steak. I honestly have had better steak at the local dinner. This "gyro" cost me $36 bucks and ain't worth its' salt! The waitress asked if anything was wrong and when we decided to keep quiet, she said to my wife: "are you crazy?" My wife loved her "Cioppini." read more

Mediocre food, great oysters. The children's menu brings in lots of families with kids.

Pretty great food, service, and experience. My wife loves the oysters / I'm a fan of the chicken.

I was very much disappointed with the food as it was substandard. We ordered a dozen oysters and these were not fresh and weren't clean properly. My palate was hurt by the shells left on them. A very unpleasant experience. I ordered a scallop appetizer and it was impossible to remove it from the shell. I am convinced this was from frozen. A rip off for $16. The noodles salad came with no vegetables as stated on the menu and the shrimp added were dried and not fresh. There was also a seafood pasta dish ordered that was very mediocre. The only good thing were the fries. When the check arrived the oysters were included despite complaining about it and not eating them. I had to request to speak to the manager to remove them from the check. I left the restaurant tasting the awful oysters and sad that a beautiful place like this cannot serve fresh food and make a bigger effort to their local clientele. read more
