    Tonight was my wife and my first time dining at Jeff Ruby’s, and it was the greatest meal/experience that we’ve had. The live music was incredible for an entrance and throughout our meal. Angelica was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and an absolute joy. We were treated with a complimentary butter cake and it was divine. Thank you for allowing us to just celebrate life with you tonight.

    Chris, gave perfect service and recommendations, and fierce fashion i might add. Agree with all other teco of corn ribs and lobster shots. I could have 5 of those shots. Corn was perfectly seasoned. We had 3 sushi rolls all delish. Tuna crunch #1, then the lobster tuna sriracha, then rainbow roll. All still delish and very fresh. Higher priced than some sushi around but worth it. I would highly recommend.

    I will definitely be back. A great place to catch up with dad. It would also be a nice restaurant to take my a wife on a date. The atmosphere was causal but elegant. The food was fresh and delicious. I will definitely get the ribs appetizer again and the sushi was fantastic. Lots of good choices on the menu. Also they had a killer key lime pie. Service was great as well.
