Recent takeout order was The Trifecta, 3 sliders of their main sandwiches. Common grocery store small buns. Husband picked them apart, ate the chicken and the pork, fed the brisket to the dog. ($18.95). (Honestly, the little slice of brisket looked like the heel off a shoe.) I gambled and had the Coconut Salmon Bowl and it was just OK. ($18.95) Everyone has one now so easy to copy and no excuse to get it wrong. Too much rice, dry salmon. Husband got in a tangle with the host when he picked up our order because I had his name on it but he thought I had it in my name. Had to produce ID. Well, OK. Expensive second chance (Third? Fourth?) Buyer beware. There are plenty of good reviews, I might ask the waiter what is good. Overdone seems to be the rule.

It's a smaller, cozy space with really friendly staff, same great food. I got the Rotisserie Chicken Plate, which comes with rice, beans, and a side. I skipped the beans, but overall it was really good--the chicken was flavorful, just slightly on the dry side for me. That said, I loved the rice and all the seasoning/flavors going on. Solid, comforting meal--and super convenient if you're in the area. Always a great choice!

Very reasonably priced, especially considering that they pay their employees a fair wage and they don't expect tipping (when paying with credit card, you don't even get a receipt with a tip line to sign). If you're dining in, you wait to be seated but can get a drink if there's a wait. They also do a substantial amount of takeout and catering orders. Baby/Kid Friendliness: 4.5/5. They have changing tables in the bathrooms (unisex). They have high chairs available, including the kind with an attached tray, which is great for smaller/shorter babies who are too short in a regular high chair to reach the dining table. No kid's menu, but you can easily order a selection of add-ons and sides to piece together a meal your kid will like. It is generally pretty loud with chatter, so no need to worry if your kid is a little noisy or talkative. Smothered Chicken Plate with Mac and Cheese (4/5) - the sauces are what make this dish - the cream gravy the chicken is smothered in and the red sauce on the side. The chicken was tender. The Mac and cheese was creamy and not too cheesy, which I liked. Roasted Pork Bowl (5/5) - I generally love pulled pork, so I loved this pork. The pork was very flavorful. Good variety of textures, like the tenderness of the pork contrasting the crispy onion strings. Overall a lot of flavor and each bite can taste a little different due to all the things in it. Fried Fish Bowl (5/5) - fried catfish added good crunch to an otherwise soft textured dish. The yams were delicious and the apple based sauce on top gave it extra depth of flavor. The pickled hot peppers are great if you like spice, but easy to avoid if you don't. My only wish was that the fried catfish was thicker cuts of catfish (you do get two strips though!). Coconut-Vanilla Pudding (3/5) - this is a liquidy type of pudding. Light coconut and vanilla flavor, but more of the flavor came from the fresh pineapple it was topped with.

Everyone chose different meals - from breakfast, to chicken sandwiches, to the beef stroganoff that I ordered. Everyone said their food was good. The meal sizes are well proportioned, I don't think many of us took anything home. My beef stroganoff was a special, so not on the regular menu, but that's why I decided to choose it. It had great crispy fried onions on top. The beef was tender and the sauce was rich and flavorful. The noodles were interesting to me, reminded me of a chow fun noodle. It was a good meal that I'd be glad to have again sometime!

I asked for a box and Nicholas proceeds to bring me a tiny burger box. I needed to correct him as my flatbread was bigger than the box. He did bring a larger box. Got a refill of water too. I'm almost positive this building was a Bakers Square in its past life. The patio had nice flowers on it. Will probably return.

I was looking for a place for my daughter and me to have dinner on a Wed night, and I had always…read morewanted to try this restaurant. Unfortunately, the experience was pretty disappointing. Parking is a challenge. The restaurant's parking lot is much too small for a restaurant of this size, and because it's backed up against hotels, finding a spot meant parking farther away. I ordered the Carolina Summer Risotto (GF) for $21.95 because I love a good risotto, and with very limited gluten-free options, this seemed like the best choice. The menu describes it as saffron risotto with Cajun shrimp, tomato, asparagus, zucchini, squash, arugula, and lemon. What I received was a very small scoop--maybe 1/2 cup--of what tasted more like yellow, sticky rice with shrimp. There was no asparagus at all, and only a couple of small pieces of zucchini and squash cut into tiny chunks. It looked nothing like the photo on the menu. For nearly $22, I expected a much more substantial portion--not something that looked like a food-truck serving in a paper cup from the fair. My daughter ordered the 6-piece chicken strips with fries for $17, and thankfully, those were much better and very generous in portions. The chicken was very moist and, in her opinion, worth the price. The atmosphere was another issue. It was extremely loud, almost to the point where it was difficult to hear the person sitting across from you--even though the restaurant wasn't full. The waitstaff was friendly, which I appreciated, but unfortunately, the 'okay' entree food, portion size, noise level, and parking issues outweighed the positives.

Jackpot! In this small restaurant, we saw what seemed to be a large number of locals. They have a very strong breakfast selection that is offered all day long. Since we were there at lunchtime, we decided to focus of the lunch offerings. My wife had the chicken salad, which was artfully arranged. The Chicken Salad comes with mayo, celery, onion, mixed lettuce, dried cranberries, fresh apples, mandarin oranges and poppyseed dressing., as well as an English muffin for $15. My wife thought it was one of the best chicken salads she has had! I ordered the Clubhouse Sandwich which came with lettuce, turkey, ham, bacon, cheddar, tomato and mayo on Texas toast, as well as a side of excellent fries for $16. Honestly, if this place was closer to us, I'd be here at least once a week, maybe more! I very highly recommend Ruby's.

The food, especially the breakfasts are stellar. They are even a touch inventive (breakfast Gnocchi!) - The picture of my plate is missing a couple bits of pancakes because I simply wanted to eat some. Their pancakes are the right blend of fluffy and dense, if you know what I mean. They will do very well. One thing that does need some attention is the bathrooms. They are run down, not very clean, paint chipped and peeling, etc...... My service has always been good as well too. It does appear as if no one is in charge, and that is OK.... but I think as they get busier (Which they are!) they will need more attention to that.
