Base my reviews off what you pay: *Place was empty, went there early for happy hour around 4:30PM on a Saturday. Price - $90 (appetizer, entree, drink, tip) Food - 4/5 - flavorful and fresh. Service - 5/5 - by far the highlight. Ambiance - 4/5 - nice vibe with live music. Overall - 4/5 - hidden gem here. Food was great, ingredients were fresh and everything was prepared fresh too. Particularly the Sea Scallops appetizer was phenomenal with a ton of flavor. But the highlight was the bartender Anthony behind the bar. He gave us excellent recommendations, generous drinks and kept us engaged and friendly the entire time. Was a great host for us and knew his stuff when it came to food. Ambience is ok but boosted by the live music playing, otherwise the vibe was typical for a restaurant. Great place and hidden gem, worth a stop for sure (at the bar). Best Dish - Sea Scallops with Fig Risotto Would Return - Absolutely read more

Here's what I have to say and this should sum it all up for how much I do love this place. You have an Irish girl coming to Revo tonight on Saint Patty's Day for an Italian meal. Keep it short and simple. The food is incredible. The cook cook each dish. It seems to make sure that everyone enjoys the authenticity and every flavor, the weight staff and everyone there is very nice very accommodating and want you to have a great experience and the ambience is ideal with the right lighting. It's not too loud, but even if it is a little loud that just means you're enjoying other people's companies you didn't expect that night but thank you to Roo. Keep doing what you're doing and don't forget about. they're still in the back where they sell their own sauces and all that!! I've only been into the restaurant once, but I've been eating their food for years thanks to them, selling their sauce and everything Keep doing what you guys are doing. I'll see you tonight.!! read more

We went to Ruvo last night during restaurant week because we wanted to try something new. We had a very pleasant experience dining here and didn't expect the portions to be so huge. Afterall, it was Restaurant Week pricing. (Dinners $39 or $46, not including drinks.) We loved the appetizers (mini rice balls and fresh mozzarella salad). My husband had the parmagiana trio and I had the Chicken Maderia. Both were to our liking. The caramel apple bread pudding was absolutely delicious! I would come back just for that! The restaurant is cute, but a bit worn looking. We were seated towards the back, at a table that had both chair and bench seating. The bench next to me was all torn up. A little Duct Tape would do the trick! The waitstaff was very good but no one came around to refill our water glasses until we were waiting to pay for the check. We will definitely venture back there and perhaps try one of their lunch specials read more

I've been back several times for Sunday Brunch since my last review and each time everything has been consistently the same, which is a great thing. The servers have been warm and friendly providing exceptional service. The pre fix lunch menu is an amazing value at $24.95. Today I started with mussels in red sauce and had as my main course the flounder oreganata which was served with sautéed vegetables and wild rice all delicious. If you are looking for a fantastic brunch / lunch I highly recommend you give Ruvo a try. read more

I came here for a baby shower today, we had the whole back room which was a nice size, and decorated comfortably and very well lit. Our waitress was great, she had a pleasant demeanor. The restaurant was accommodating even despite the fixed menu. We started with family style apps - fried calamari and mozzarella with roasted red peppers doused in balsamic vinaigrette. It was a little heavy. We also received a salad with shaved parmesan which was pretty good. For the main course, I had the salmon with vegetables over mashed potatoes. It was good. For dessert, there was a delicious tiramisu. The food was generally pretty tasty, but service was a little bit slow. read more

Came here for a baby shower and can't say I'll be racing back. Even for meatballs and sausage, this was a little bit too heavy. The service was also a bit too slow for what wasn't a packed restaurant. I did like the tiramisu and decaf cappuccino though. read more

We went to Ruvo during restaurant week. The portions were huge and there were plenty of items to choose from. We decided upon the parm trio and chicken special. (I just ate the leftovers tonight for dinner.) It was difficult to find a parking spot, but that was because of the extra snow. The waiter was attentive and the service was fairly quick. The appetizers and desserts were the highlight of the night! read more

If I want to go out and be sure to get great food, Ruvo West is my go to. Lunch is great. Dinner is great. I have gone to many restaurants and left feeling disappointed and that I wasted my money on food I could have made much better at home. I have never felt that way about Ruvo. Always excellent. We always choose Ruvo for our Anniersary and Christmas Eve because those are 2 days we want to be sure to have a great meal and nice atmosphere. The best! read more

Great place. Unfortunately I needed to cancel because we needed to ask more people. They couldn't accommodate more than 14 on the day we wanted to I waited too long b read more

Great bar:pub restaurant with excellent atmosphere. The menu was quite big so we settled on the basics /chicken parm -meatballs -crab cakes --all of which hit their mark. The waitress was friendly and the staff kept our water glass and drinks filled. We recommend if you are in the area. read more

Went for the lunch with friends that I hadn't seen in a while. Dawn was our waitress and she was great! Right away for our drinks and told us to take our time catching up. We eventually ordered the $23. price fix with appetizers of mussels, soup and a Caesar salad and they were all delicious! For main course we got Flounder, Chicken Parmigian and the Turkey BLT. The portions weee huge and we all took 1/2 home! We had to try a dessert so we got the chocolate mousse cake which was to die for! Dawn told us the desserts are all homemade and they sell them in at attached market and we could even order a whole cake for any events in the future! We will definitely be back! read more

Made terrible drinks Charged 17 for a shot of whiskey And the chicken was soggy Told my friend sorry we don't have gluten-free dessert The only thing that was good was the chicken Caesar salad You can tell nothing was made with love or care read more

Ruvo is a very busy and noisy pub restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere and good staff. We had accidentally gotten the day of our reservation wrong, but after a wait of half an hour, we were seated. The Prix Fixe menu was a great deal and the food did not disappoint. The salmon, the roast duck, the veal sorrentino and the flounder/shrimp oreganata were all dishes that were thoroughly enjoyed. Desserts were very good also and the portions were quite large. Our friends recently moved to the area so I see this restaurant as being a go to spot for us in the future read more

Great experience. Great food. The live music was so nice. Can't wait to go back! The service was terrific.

Have been driving past this place for awhile and finally went inside to have dinner. Came on a Sat and it was pretty packed, outside and in. It was cozy inside and wait staff were very friendly. Dishes were a little pricey but it was delicious! We had calamari to start, salmon and steak. All really tasty but I have to say the steak was my absolute favorite, the way it was cooked, flavorful with sauce is reason enough to come back for more! To finish it off we had the cheesecake which was homemade! I'm not really a cheesecake fan but this one was well done and made me a fan. Hidden gem in Greenlawn! read more

RUVO Greenlawn a gem of a restaurant serving up great Italian cuisine and other great dishes. Baked Clams, Calamari and Crab Cakes all fresh. The Veal Chop was outstanding with a great Montepulciano. The portions were perfect so no room for dessert. But do top off your meal with an espresso and a little Sambuca. Great waiter and the opened up the restaurant to make it more enjoyable. Live music on Friday nights to add to your dining experience. Ciao for Now read more

Great meal and wonderful music. Just nice vibe. Food was fantastic and service was amazing.

We went there last week Mother's Day 2025. It was very lovely! I had the rack of Lamb which came with Asparagus and Mashed potatoes. That dish outstanding. The service was outstanding. So happy we chose that place. read more

Was there for lunch the other day and was very disappointed. Our waitress was not very friendly but more importantly the food wasn't good. Got a chicken cutlet parm dinner (for lunch) and the chicken cutlet could not have been any thicker and the sauce tasted like Prego jarred sauce. Luckily my appetizer and the pasta that accompanied the chicken saved the day. Otherwise the food was a 2 at best read more

So I washed dishes in Greenlawn 35 years ago I know a little bit about the restaurant industry and I love this place. Whether it's the decor the reclaimed wood or the muscles and duck on the menu this place has everything including music on Friday nights. They treat us right each time they allow me to park the Lamborghini right in front and they always treat us like King and queens I can't say enough about this place that are wonderful people and we go there each week.

I am very much a regular at Ruvo, Greenlawn. I just ordered food for delivery and this was the bread I received upon delivery. It was a $30 order. It's embarrassing just so t even bother sending it. If I ordered this meal in the restaurant would I be subjected to the same piece of bread? The quality of food isn't as it used to be and certainly they quantity is not the same either. read more

Solid 3.5 stars but I rounded up. I've been meaning to try this place since I'm local. We came for restaurant week and they had a three course menu selection. We had a pitcher of red sangria which we both enjoyed. For an appetizer I got the spinach and artichoke flat bread, my hubby got the calamari. Both good- the spinach artichoke flat bread could have used a little heat like red pepper flakes or something but it was decent. For my entree I had the half duck, good but a little well done to my liking, my hubby had the chicken sorrentino. I liked it, he did not. They use red sauce instead of the traditional brownish sauce for the dish and the sauce at Ruvo is VERYYY sweet. It needs something to break it up like basil or some acid. For dessert we had the cheesecake and flourless chocolate cake. read more

Food was very good, ambience was comfortable, friendly and service was excellent. This was perfect for a before theater dinner.

We haven't been to Ruvo in years (since the remodel). Our party of 3 had absolutely delicious meals.....this never happens! Our server Todd was great. Will be back again! read more

What an absolutely wonderful time at Ruvo last night! My girlfriends and I went to see a friend play live music there and grab some dinner as well. We made reservations and the place was pretty busy! Beautiful bar area as well here. We started off with the rice balls and spinach artichoke flatbread for appetizer. The rice balls had a slight spice to them, fabulous! The flatbread was so fresh and covered in cheese! We devoured them both. I had the handmade Gnocchi in their signature bolognese sauce and I was blown away. I was skeptical after reading some reviews on here but I'm so happy I went with my gut. I'm not sure why Ruvo fell short on those other nights but I was seriously impressed. One of my friends had the Chicken Gismonda with a side of spaghetti and said it was great! Wine choices range from local to napa valley and we couldn't forget about dessert! We opted for the flourless peanut butter pie with vanilla ice cream. A perfect way to end a perfect night. I cannot wait to go back and have another great meal! read more

I went to Long Island Restaurant Week at Ruvo. The food was very good. Grandma's meatballs were delicious. I couldn't stop eating them. Then I had the chicken and it was good. My only complaint was I wanted a little more seasoning on it. The flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake was delicious!!! It was sooo good. All I kept saying was hmmmm while I was eating it. The I love Lucy drink was really good. As a fellow bartender, it was made well and you could actually tell you was drinking an adult drink. I appreciate that. I would definitely return there to eat. The ambiance was very nice. They had a singer that night. It was restaurant for a nice date night or a night out for the family. read more

Inviting atmosphere. Decorating is perfect. Staff friendly. Food was excellent. Will be back again when I visit Beau's Bar across street!

Great food. Happened to go on a lobster special night. Delicious. Music a little noisy for conversation

Went for dinner on a Friday night for the first time with friends who had been there before... been wanting to try this local place for a long time... it was crowded and a bit noisy but it had a great vibe... plus they had live music which is always nice ... waiters could be a bit more friendly... we started with fried calamari the portion size was small but the sauces were great ... I had the steak which was perfect with masked potatoes the broccolini was a bit underdone ... the bread I must say was amazing... prices a bit high but the quality is there... nice decor and a pleasant evening read more
