Oysters

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!

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!!!

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.

Went with some friends. We dined outdoors, because it was a beautiful night! Service was excellent! Food came out very quickly. We had a double tier, filled with lots of goodies!! Lobster, seafood salad, clams, oysters and shrimp!! We then ordered a dozen of oysters, general Tso's cauliflower, mussels with fries, and a salad w mozzarella! Everything was really great!

Tito's and soda with lime on the back patio.

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!

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

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

Everything. Service…read morewas on point and the food was just incredible...topped off with the best espresso martini I have ever had. Just all-around yummy.

1881 Kitchen Table was absolutely amazing. We have been considering going for a couple of weeks and…read moreweren't able to get same day reservations. Now that we've been, I can absolutely see why. The ambiance is great. Love the decor and it generally feels like a nice place for a date night or even just a nice night out with friends. The staff is attentive and very nice. But the food. The food was amazing. We started with the Little Mezze with the grilled bread and we also got the char grilled octopus. Both were amazing. We sat and ranked each dish on the little mezze, because it was all fantastic. Complex yet clean flavors in each dish. The eggplant was just a delightful, complex, balanced dish. The grilled octopus was possibly the best octopus I have ever had. The char had a great flavor. It was perfectly tender. We next had the schnitzel and the beet salad with salmon on top. The schnitzel was so crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The salmon was so nicely cooked on top of the salad. We saved room for dessert and had the sundae and the cheesecake and they were completely different and both stupidly good and very unique. This place was overall amazing. Homerun and one of the best dining experiences as of late and a definite must come back.

Torn about Tellys! When you walk in you are greeted with the overwhelming smell of Fabuloso, that…read morestrong smelling commercial cleaner. NO restaurant should use this. It smells so strong you cannot imagine eating anything while smelling it. Why are they not using any of the many non smelling cleaners available? Like every other restaurant!?! Please Tellys!!! I actually love their food most of the time and would go there more often if not for this issue. Sometimes the calamari and octopus are not as fresh as they could be which of course is a big problem. They need to coordinate with their other restaurant to make the ingredients always fresh!!! Love the marousalata, grilled octopus (sometimes) and many of their other dishes. If they did better marketing or PR (youre right next to the town of Greenwich where people love and can afford your food but no one has heard of you!) they would have more customers and likely fresher food! My suggestions: 1. Stop using fabuloso- clean with a smell-free product 2. Only fresh food always (no old seafood or meat! Dangerous!) 3. Marketing and PR!

Great food, great service, great beer options, great specialty cocktails, plenty of menu choices,…read morecasual cool vibe, great location. This place has it all! I rarely give 5 stars on a single visit because for me the 5th star is all about consistency. A place that is great 1 time and poor the next shouldn't have 5 stars, but if it's always great then it definitely should stand out. Telly's was just so amazing that there's no way it won't always be great. Can't wait to go back. Recommendations for food: Octopus was the best I've ever had. Grilled haloumi cheese was incredible. Moussaka was excellent. Chicken and lamb skewers were great (be sure to add Tzatziki!) Excellent Greek food with plenty of other options. Huge seafood menu if you like seafood. What a great experience!
