Little Ruby's Cafe in West Village is a vibrant hotspot offering "amazing" food and a "wonderful" atmosphere. Guests rave about the breakfast burrito, ricotta pancakes, and spicy vodka pasta.

    Food was a bit late and luke warm. We’re sat right by the door with heater off on a cold day.

    Delicious food and great service! This location has a better vibe and much better service than the Murray Hill location.

    So glad to have a reservation as “walk-ins” had to wait a minimum of an hour—and they did! Great service, the food was DELICIOUS and priced reasonably, given the location (cool neighborhood) and just being in NYC ($$$). Would definitely return to try other items on the menu. Thank you, Little Ruby’s!!

    Although it took us a long time to get seated (an hour wait on a Saturday night even though we had a reservation) I have to say this was some of the friendliest and energetic service I’ve ever hard at a restaurant in the city. It truly made up for the long wait.

    I really love little Rubys the food so good. However this time I visit I was advised the table we reserved we only had it for one hr. So I did feel a tad bit rushed and felt like I couldn’t enjoy more drinks.
