Ruth's is such a cool spot on Flatbush, honestly one of the more thoughtfully decorated places in…read morethe area. The minute you walk in, you can tell they really put effort into the vibe. It's stylish without being pretentious, and the space just feels good to hang out in. The drinks are really well made, balanced, interesting, and clearly crafted by bartenders who know what they're doing. The crowd is always chill, too. It has that neighborhood-but-still-trendy energy where you feel comfortable right away. They've got small bites if you want something to snack on, and there's a really fun back room that almost feels like a hidden little lounge. And I have to mention the bathroom because... it's definitely interestingly decorated. Unique in the best, quirkiest way. Overall, Ruth's is an easy favorite for a casual night out with friends, a date, or just grabbing a great drink in a beautifully put-together space. A real Flatbush gem.

Wow - what a great little spot!!!…read more Ruth is not on the beaten path for me, but I was heading down to King's Theatre for a concert and looking for a nice bar for pre-gaming. And, guess what? Ruth was just what the doctor ordered. So how would I describe Ruth? It's a cross between a speakeasy and a trendy neighborhood bar... and they serve up some tasty drinks and snacks!!! The interior is cozy with a number of arranged seating areas so parties of folks can gather together. The bar area has stool seating where you can watch the bartender make drinks... and there's even a separate back room area that looks like it could be rented out for private events. As for bartenders and staff, they are all awesome!!! Final thoughts = if you are nearby and ready for a nice drink, hit up Ruth. You'll be happy you did!

I had a tequila gimlet and it was so tasty. The perfect amount of sweet, tart and tequila kick. I actually came here before maybe once or twice and hadn't been for a while. Then I gotta invited to this spot for the date from hell lol. The man showed up super late and had the audacity to have an attitude with me for being upset. Trust I never saw that man again, paid for all of my own drinks, even though I had been invited out and he downed his drink so fast so he could 'leave me first' that it was thee most pathetic and immature sorry sight I ever did see, from a grown man. The bartenders were so kind about it and even said waiting 45 minutes for anyone was a no-no and that his behavior was unacceptable! I agree. I'd definitely go back in the future. I like the big backyard area with all the tables. Good for large groups. But it was also really nice for a lone drink at the bar'. Cause baby, that's what I had!
