We were seated promptly and had a wonderful server Johnnie. He was so knowledgeable and attentive. The cocktails were made perfectly. The shrimp cocktail was chilled just right and the oysters were really good. The country ham board was exceptional. The filets were delicious. And the butter pie was amazing.

Our meal was delicious, cooked perfectly and beautifully presented. Our server Shelby and her assistant Katie took excellent care of us and made us feel welcomed. The highlight of the evening was having the manager D.J. check on us throughout our appetizers and entrees. We are looking forward to another dinner at Jeff Ruby's soon! Thank you and Merry Christmas!

Stephen and his SA were wonderful and attentive. Our table was always clean. Our food was also served in a timely manner. I brought my 11 month old baby and the manager, Farris, was so kind to bring my son a spread of berries to snack on while we waited for our meal. It was a wonderful Christmas lunch.

Jeff Ruby’s is always towards the top of any list, but on this visit, it seemed as though they were off their peak. Our salads came out undressed. No dressing. At all. Hard to understand how an oversight like that occurred. The holiday background music cut out for 15-20 minutes replaced by nothing but dead air, which was very jarring for the ambience. Some dishes have been deprecated over the months, with the Country Ham board not being quite what it once was in composition. Service was fine, with our assistant server being spectacular. Our main server was adequate but the pacing was slooooooow. The mains were very good with our steaks and bacon jam being spectacular as always. The whipped potatoes were exceptionally good. Dessert service was also very nice, and the Bananas Foster was delicious. In the past, the failings we experienced likely would have never happened. That, combined with other easy little details to fix, such as badly bent tines on forks, really detracted from Jeff Ruby’s being the pinnacle of fine dining in Lexington. I’d still recommend it for a special night out. But, with the price asked comes an expectation of excellence. Jeff Ruby’s just needs to smooth out some rough edges and continue investing in their soft and hard products.
