    French toast platter
    Mike S.

    Being new to the area, we are working our way through the dining options. Ruby's has an interesting menu with some unique offerings I've not seen before. V went with a straightforward breakfast offering found most anywhere. The over-easy eggs were made as expected, and the French toast was thick bread and tasty. I ordered the Chilaquiles, which I've never heard of before, but I'm glad I tried it. I opted for the hot red sauce, which for breakfast was a bit too hot for me. Next time, I'll try the green, medium sauce. I really enjoyed the blend of flavors, the eggs, rice, refried beans, sauce, and sour cream. Yummy The service was perfect. Our waitress was prompt, the food arrived quickly, and our waitress followed up to make sure all was well. The atmosphere was a bit nicer than Grandma's located across the street. Ruby's felt a little more comfy and welcoming. The four-plus stars overall is well earned.

    Potato Benedict

    Creative menu with so many choices! Had the potato Benedict with eggs and Canadian bacon on potato pancakes instead of English muffin! Terrific breakfast!

    Steak skillet & toast + French toast & eggs
    Benjamin F.

    A lovely small dinner right by the freeway, ideal location for a break driving to or from Chicago. Employees are nice and professional, the place is clean and the food was great. I had the steak skillet and was amazed at how tasty the meat was. Eggs were cooked perfectly, with just the right amount of cheese. I will definitely stop by again given the chance.

    Vegan options are super limited to 1 dish. Veggie skillet with basicly just oil and nothing else on…read moreit (no egg etc). Do I mind? No I have ate TONS of breakfast places and had only veggies heated up honestly. I can name 6 places in orland, Bolingbrook, Naperville, Joliet, romeoville, I can eat just "veggie skillet no egg, no cheese" and it taste just fine. Ordered it and after few bites did not taste fresh, in fact tasted dry? And frozen. I got almost sick IMMEDIATELY. Mind you I paid " like "$20+" for this. My stomach was so messed up, I wanted to Vomit. Also note my boyfriend ordered Cheesey Egg Omelette, and also refused to eat it after 4 bites. it's not just my meal. Maybe what we ordered was just not the freshest veggie, or egg, or cheese, or... ? I don't know what the heck happened but $47 down the drain. 3 bites each. We asked for a check and walked out. I hate to leave a bad review but atleast the $5 strawberry juice, which was you know... not really fresh or juice was just flavored water, no sugar, was decent. ALSO, my boyfriend did like the pancakes. So... just order the pancakes Service was alright. Ambiance was alright. Food, personally I wouldn't come back. Even if you paid me. My stomach hurt so bad. The place looks nice tho, and lots of options, just don't take anyone who you love there, maybe an enemy.

    Now that I'm spending time in Minooka, it's time to explore the local eateries. There are three…read morebreakfast/lunch sit-down restaurants that I'm aware of in Minooka. The name Grandma's Pancake House called out to be our first breakfast stop. The restaurant is located in a strip-type shopping center. It's not particularly homey, definitely not upscale. It's Just a place to grab breakfast or lunch. We arrived a little after 10 am, there were two other tables with patrons, and as we dined three more couples came in. That helped to make the place feel more comfortable, although you could hear what anyone said. I ordered the Meat Lover's Skillet with Greek toast and eggs sunny side-up. The meal looked good and tasted good too. It comes with hash browns, layered between the eggs and the meats. The Greek toast was good, it's thick and is best with butter. All in all, it was pretty much as good as any skillet I've had anywhere and at a fair enough price of $12. Their decaf coffee was dark and reminded me of Starbucks coffee. V ordered Eggs Benedict. He said the sauce had almost no flavor, but it was edible. He had iced tea and seemed to enjoy it. My meal would have earned four starts but V's Eggs Benedicts brought the rating down.

    This used to be my favorite breakfast place, but it has really gone down hill in the past few…read moreyears. The decor has gotten shabby, the televisions are unnecessarily distracting, and the food quality has taken a nosedive. Two weeks ago I received avocado slices on a sandwich that were so hard I couldn't chew them. Last week I got spoiled peaches on my waffle. I used to come here at least once or twice a week, but I will not be back.
