I had an amazing visit at Ruthie's. When I first pulled up, I got a front row park. I walked in and the place was beautiful and very unexpected for the neighborhood. The cashier, Andrea was so nice and explained the menu once I let her know this was my first visit. Once I placed my order, I walked around and loved the facility. They had a place to host meetings and outside seating in the back with a patio with beautiful green turf, and I noticed that there was extra parking. The staff was nice and the manager John introduced himself and approached our table to make sure everything was good and it was. My friend and I shared the seasonal French toast and the Sunnyside Powerball. I highly recommend this place and will be back. read more

Such a cute spot for breakfast and lunch in Sunny South Dallas! I tried the BEC breakfast sandwich and a matcha latte on my recent visit. Both were EXCELLENT and were served quickly despite the modest crowd. I just wish the sandwich was served with something (fruit, breakfast potatoes, etc). Oh, and proceeds from the restaurant benefit the community! Highly recommend for a quick bite if you're in the area. read more

Beautiful decor and a bright, lively atmosphere. I had a chai and it was pleasant. I'm sure I spoke with every server on duty because they were so friendly and checking on us and asking how we were doing. Love their mission to support a local school with all proceeds and how it aligns with the Unbound Library, a community library, which is the pop up event we attended there. We will be back to visit and dine again! read more

When it comes to a quick sandwich spot you really can't get any better than this. The staff and ambiance were both excellent as well. We ordered two sandwiches that had perfectly crispy bread, great fillings and flavorful sauces. I mean when you put a bunch of well seasoned proteins between two slices of bread with a bunch of cheese, you can't end up with anything that isn't delicious. What keeps this from a 5 is that it is not anything unique. Regardless, they make great sandwiches and I will definitely be back to try more of them Shoutout to Zo for explaining what we ordered and for being the creator of the monthly Jerk Chicken sandwich read more

Atmosphere is cool and comfortable. Service was fast and friendly. I had the chicken salad sandwich with tots. The chicken salad was bland and needed an element of either sweetness like grapes or cransins or maybe a citrus like a squirt of lemon to bring out a fresh flavor. The tot portion was huge! I shared it with the hubs and we still couldn't eat them all. The tots could have had see a seasoning. I ended up salting them. The hubs had a turkey sandwich and it was loaded. He said it tasted good and he would get it again. I had the ice tea which was good but just regular iced tea. I did appreciate they offered sweetened and unsweetened. Our total was $32 for 2 sandwiches, one order of tots and one ice tea. I would go to Ruthie's again but I wouldn't get the chicken salad sandwich. read more

Ruthie's is our go to Saturday spot for great food, coffee and community! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is great and the staff are always warm and kind. We never leave with leftovers because we hang out until the food and coffees or matcha is gone. Side note - The owner is super sweet - on the day we brought our baby home from NICU they took care of our meal. Cant say enough good things about the work they do for our community as well. We LOVE Ruthie's! read more

Where Comfort Meets Conscious Eating TL;DR: A cozy café serving up health-conscious breakfast sandwiches on their legendary bread--flavorful, satisfying, and surprisingly affordable. Healthy breakfast spots can be hit or miss. Too often, you're left with something that tastes like regret wrapped in whole wheat. But Ruthie's Café? They've cracked the code. Their chicken sausage, scrambled egg, and cheese sandwich--stacked on that famous bread from their food truck days--is proof that healthy can still mean deliciously melty. Of course, I had to revisit an old flame: the grilled cheese that first made me fall for Ruthie's back when they were slinging sandwiches at Klyde Warren Park. Spoiler alert: it's still as gooey and glorious as ever. The space itself? Minimalist, but in a welcoming way--high ceilings, big glass windows, and a "come hang out" kind of vibe. Whether you're settling into the laptop-friendly corner or hosting a group in the conference room, there's a spot that feels just right. The Unexpected Perk The prices. Somehow, they're just as reasonable--if not better--than when they were a food truck. I randomly wandered in while running errands and now have their brisket cheese sandwich bookmarked for my next visit. The Flipside The coffee? Let's just say it exists. Not terrible, but definitely not the star of the show. Think more "standard drip" than "carefully curated roast." Basically, it's the sidekick to the cheese sandwich, not the main act. Pro Tips * Skip the street parking stress--there's a lot in the back. * The patio is prime real estate for overcast days or when you want to feel fancy eating a cheese sandwich outdoors. * If you're planning a group gathering, the conference room seems reservable. * Breakfast is served all day! Don't let the TV screens showing lunch options fool you--grab a laminated menu at the counter for the real deal. * The coffee is molten when served. Give it a minute unless you enjoy burning your taste buds off. Final Thoughts Ruthie's Café nails the trifecta: solid food, fair prices, and thoughtful little details (like eco-friendly utensils). Whether you're here for the bread, the cheese, or just the easygoing vibe, it's the kind of place you'll want in your regular rotation. Because life's too short for bad bread--or forgettable cheese sandwiches. read more

Great Food and customer service! I eat mostly plant based. I was able to sub the cheese on my breakfast sandwich for vegan cheese. They also have vegan butter and tofu scramble. My sandwich had eggs, vegan cheese, grilled jalapeños, and grilled onions on sourdough bread. Very tasty! Shoutout to chef Zo for hooking it up and also giving me some tots on the side.

Tried Zo's Breakfast Hash and The Boss both were really good, the sauce specifically is great. We also tried the Nutella Latte and Matcha Latte both were really good too. The location looks great, no issues with the service, and it's nice to have an option like this in the community. It was my first time but I will be back. read more

So I volunteered to a Dallas Resource fair and Ruthies was there, compelled to try some grilled cheese I placed my order. Ok so this is grilled cheese, you can burn it or add fake cheese so there's not much to it. But a 4 cheese grilled cheese, well that's doing a lot. Can I say though, that my taste buds disagreed with me! That sandwich oozed with cheese, creamy havarti, thick mozzarella, tasty swiss and sharp cheddar. The sourdough bread soaked in all the butter making this no dry grilled cheese at all. I love when businesses service the community and do it with an amazing yummy to my tummy meal. Thanks Ruthie for leaving us with a smile. Oh and it's a certified woman's owned business! read more

Ruthie's came to South Western Seminary! They have a really pretty Pink Food Truck with just a few choices that are pretty pricey. Staff seemed to be really humble posing for a pic and Thanking me for the review. I was not able to try it since, I had a sandwich for dinner. Maybe, next time, I will try something on the menu and complete an updated review. Well, that's I got. read more

I enjoyed the entire experience and will certainly be returning to try out the entire menu!! I had the spinach wrap and pop had the turkey sandwich. Yall gotta stop by an try them out! read more

Employee had the audacity to give herself a tip without my consent. I only noticed because the total bill seemed too high - my credit card is linked to my phone, so I was able to check the receipt online and confirm that she gave herself a tip. Completely unprofessional and dishonest behavior. I will be looking into opening a claim with my bank/credit card company. read more

Yum I do love a good grilled cheese. I wanted just a regular, but my friend convinced me to try the brisket and I was so glad. The brisket was slow cooked, and delicious on it's own. Adding it to the grilled cheese was a wondrous addition. Everything about this grilled cheese is perfection, from the bread to the cheese. It's nicely griddled with a crisp ends. read more

I went to a few museums nearby and walked over to Klyde Warren Park afterwards to check out what was going on there as I saw a bunch of people there. Just a bunch of people there hanging out, kids playing about, people taking selfies, bunch of dogs, a bunch of food trucks around. Suns out, guns out, skies out, thighs out were all around! We discussed about getting a little snack, so we walked the line of food trucks to see what looked good. Ruthie's looked the best so we decided to get a grilled cheese here and got the "Turkey Trot"...turkey meat with bacon, a bunch of melty cheese and this thousand island kind of sauce. It was nicely grilled up, ooey gooey cheese, not super greasy. May not be the best choice eating this outside in 90 degree weather but we found some shade so it was fine. Overall a good food truck to check out, glad we stopped by. Took about 10 mins to make our sandwich so we waited like everyone else. Prices seem like I thought it would be and staff was normal. If I worked or lived nearby, I would come here again but I don't, so whatever. read more

Hired for a wedding. 3 hours late! Entire reception had to be pushed because of this. Then when they opened food took 30-45 minutes. Worst part is their attitude was rude with no apologies. read more

One of the better food truck I've tried. The truck was at Kyde Warren Park. We went around noon. Ordered The Boss - Brisket & cheese on sourdough. This was so good! I loved it! I think it's a must try! It was made exactly how I wanted it. Only downside about this truck was that the wait for your sandwich took a bit longer. Assuming there was only 2 (maybe 3) people inside, I guess I can't argue with them being slow with the amount of people ordering. I'd go backs I recommend others to try! read more

Ruthie's rolled into our office's parking lot today for lunch, and being a big fan of grilled cheese, it was an easy choice. Stepping up to the truck, I perused the menu and, in a typical move for me, started contemplating off menu possibilities. The Extra Cheesy Classic looked fantastic, but where's the beef? Also, all that cheese is screaming for bacon and a little spice. After asking if I should expect a structural failure (no, he said), I ordered an Extra Cheesy Classic with brisket, bacon and jalapenos. Oh, yeah. Digging in back inside the office, the bread was nicely brown and crisp, and the ooey, gooey cheese was plentiful. The brisket, as promised by the staff, was in the "pulled" format with a little bit of sauce for binding, but it was far from being runny or sloppy. Bacon was crisp and smokey, and the jalapenos were just what the sandwich needed for a little kick. Overall, it was a very nice meal, albeit a little on the spendy side. But I'd prefer quality over thrift, so it was a win. read more

I was just behind one of their food trucks at a stoplight near Harry Hines and NW Hwy 12. Watched the driver chuck his empty chip bag out the window and onto the street. If your whole business model is built around people wanting to eat outside, maybe show a little effort to keep it clean. read more

This was parked outside of the building where my training was going on. I decided to eat here vs my free breakfast. I was not disappointed. It was a bit pricey, $7, but it was good. The crepe was fresh and the combination of the bacon, egg, and cheese with the Maple Syrup was a delight. I think the biggest obstale will be the price for each item. I am glad they sopped by and I wish them the best! read more

It is kind of crazy that I'm giving five stars to a food truck but if there's one that deserves it it is this place. Ruthie's came to my work today and served up some sandwiches and did it in style! My sandwich today was what they call The Boss, which is essentially barbecue brisket in a delicious sauce and melted cheddar cheese on one of the most deliciously crusted breads I have ever had a sandwich on. The sandwich does not normally come with bacon but upon the order takers recommendation I added it to it and it was unbelievably good. Sandwiches are the thing though with Ruthie's. The sides and drinks are pretty standard a bag of chips a bottle of drink. Nothing really to write home about but hey when your sandwiches are this good you can forget about putting much effort into the extras! read more

As the President of an HOA in North Dallas, a resident recommended that I look to get Ruthies into the HOA during the quarantine. I checked out the menu, and it looked great. I worked with Robin, and we were able to quickly setup the event. The reaction from the neighborhood was overwhelming excitement. I think everyone, like me, was excited to get out of the house, get some hot fresh food, without having cold cuts again, or getting delivery. Due to the virus, they implemented a new procedure. You order on-line, select a time for pickup, and then arrive, pickup your bag on the table, and leave, "contactless" ordering as they called it. So the day of the event came, and there was a good turnout. From what I have heard from residents, an overwhelming majority of the residents were pleased with the event. Now, truthfully, with their new business model due to the corona virus, and the "social distancing", everything did not go as planned. There was delays for a good amount of people, and there was some mistakes. Mine was personally missing the bacon. After the event, I relayed my concerned to Robin, and a representative reached out to me to apologize. As I mentioned, they are initiating a new system, for the contactless ordering. As with any new system, there was some kinks. Ashlee reached out to me personally, explained what happen, and was very sorry, that not everyone was satisfied. She personally offered to take action to make this right for all of our residents (we're a pretty large HOA community). During these trying times, all businesses are forced to change the way they do business to survive and keep their employees on the payroll. I am thankful that small business are doing things like this, because their success is critical to the success our our local communities. Over all my years, I've learned to judge business not only by if there was a problem or not, but most importantly by how they rectify a problem if one occurs. There was some learning pains yesterday, and things were not perfect, however, the majority of the residents really enjoyed their lunch, even those that had to wait. With the problems, Ashlee promptly reached out to me to do anything she could to make this right for our residents, and she was sincere and apologetic. In my book, that is a sign of a company doing the right thing. Correcting issues, and insuring that the problem is fixed. I don't know if all our residents will stop and try another sandwich, but as a Grilled Cheese Junkie, If I see a Ruthie's in the area, I will definitely be back to give them a second try. Ashlee's commitment to making it right earned my respect. Thanks Ashley and Robin, Both you guys stepped up to the plate, and your commitment to our community is appreciated. Best of luck during these challenging times. I can not begin to fully appreciate all of the issues facing small businesses during these challenging times. Best Regards, Stay Safe ! Bob , Legends HOA President read more
