CeCee S.

I've been to the New York location, and I actually think I prefer the Dallas restaurant. It's spacious yet still feels intimate, with a warm, comfortable atmosphere. The patio is especially nice, with plenty of seating. One thing to note: they don't serve food between 4 and 5 p.m. while transitioning to dinner service, and that wasn't mentioned anywhere. We arrived starving, but Andrea at the bar took great care of us while we waited. I was craving a hot drink, and although there weren't any on the menu, she whipped up an Irish coffee-style cocktail that was delicious. Later I asked for something "cute," and once again she delivered. At 5 p.m. we were seated, and Michael took over from there. We were in no rush, and he let us enjoy the evening at our own pace as we worked our way through appetizers and drinks. Everything we tried was excellent. The calamari was crispy and fresh, the shrimp toast was buttery with just the right amount of crunch, and the fries were a winner. The standout, though, was the ribs. They came with a grilled mandarin orange to squeeze over the meat, adding a bright flavor to ribs that were incredibly tender and practically melted in your mouth. Great food, even better hospitality, and a comfortable atmosphere that makes you want to linger. I'm glad to see Little Ruby's in the neighborhood and can definitely see myself becoming a regular.

Had a great time trying Lil Ruby's, went on a Saturday morning and was sat fairly quickly. The outside patios are super cute however, I do wish they had fans. We started off with a mango margarita and a blossom spritz, which is essentially a Hugo spritz. Both drinks were delicious. We just wish the margarita was a bigger glass for the price. We then ordered the french fries with truffle aïoli as an appetizer and the fries are so good for our mains. We had the crispy rice bowl with crispy chicken, and this was by far the winner of the meals. The sandwich was the Bluey and the bread was toasted to perfection. Overall, it is a great place for a nice brunch. I will say the drinks specifically the frozen could be bigger for the price.

An adorable restaurant with outdoor patio seating as well, beautiful decor. Took about 10 minutes for our waiter to come to our table, but after that he was checking in often and refilling our water. We loved every dish that was ordered which included the whipped avocado dip, spicy vodka pasta with crispy chicken and to end the meal with a sticky date cake

Came here for brunch on a rainy day so didnt get to enjoy their patio area, but the interior of the main hall was very cozy and nice. Perfect spot for brunch with the girls. The food leaves much to be desired though, especially considering the price. Tried out the vodka pasta after reading a lot of good reviews about it but i think flavor wise it was a bit flat. We also got the banana bread with passionfruit butter to share which was an interesting mix of sweet, sour, and salty that i actually enjoyed a lot but dont thinks it's worth the price.

Foodie alert! I had the chance to dine at Little Ruby for brunch, and I would rate it 4/5. I'm subtracting a star because the location is quite hard to find since it's hidden off the street. Aside from that, the service was excellent. The food was even better, and the drinks were on point. It had a really cute, cozy vibe. It's an intimate restaurant with not a lot of space, but just enough to move around. Food: 4/5 BREAKFAST SANDWICH RICOTTA HOTCAKES CRISPY BRUSSEL SPROUTS DRINKS: 5/5 GUAVA COLADA ESPRESSO MARTINI

Visited this after work with my husband and we had a great experience! I knew I wanted to try the spicy vodka pasta with the fried chicken on top- and it was delicious. The pasta was the real show stopper and I would def order again. My husband had the double patty cheeseburger, it was really flavorful, a little on the smaller side if you're really hungry but good flavor. The shrimp toast was something else I'd recommend, I don't have a pic but it was crispy toast with like a shrimp paste inside? Very flavorful. And the staff were so accommodating, should out to Jay and Emily- so helpful and kind, the team was very attentive and I really appreciate that.

Had a lovely evening with friends at this new spot! We all split the whipped avocado dip, I ordered a guava lemonade (YUM) and the shrimp and avocado salad. Service was quick, our waiter was friendly and very helpful when deciding what to order. I loved the decor of the restaurant, it is very dreamy and lush looking. It was pretty chilly inside so bring a jacket, but despite being busy, it wasn't overly loud because of the plush seating. They outside patio also looked like a great option for mild weather! I also took the crispy rice salad to-go and thought it was very good, but the halloumi was a little too salty.

It's a blend of cozy café comfort and understated style -- the kind of place that feels equally suited for a relaxed brunch or a casual, feel-good dinner. The service was great, and the server recommendations were on point. For starters, we had the burrata with a side of sourdough bread -- flavorful and well-balanced, with a nice touch of pear and a bit of crunch that elevated the dish. For mains, we ordered the Bronte and the Fried Chicken Burger. I really enjoyed the Bronte, but the fried chicken burger was a bit underwhelming (around a 4/10). On the side, we had French fries with truffle aioli and Brussels sprouts, and both were solid choices. Dessert was the highlight -- the sticky date pudding was an easy 11/10 and definitely one of my top three desserts in Dallas. For drinks, if you enjoy something with a kick, I'd recommend the Yuzu Jalapeño Margarita. We also tried the Espresso Martini, Little Ruby (gin-based), and the Guava Colada -- the guava colada was average (5/10), but the others were good. Overall, it leans more toward elevated comfort food. While everything was enjoyable, nothing besides the dessert truly stood out as extraordinary -- especially at this price point.

1. Food was not coursed very well. Salad came and then immediately our entrees did and all during this our appetizer wasn't done. 2. Water cups are WAY too small and water service isn't good. Table next to us and us never had water and it was frustrating to keep asking. 3. Service felt pushy trying to get us out in a hurry. 4. Margarita was like 95% ice, pretty flavorless. 5. Steak was a bit over cooked and no dressing on the arugula salad with it.

Lately I've been very skeptical about places from New York and LA coming to Dallas, so I went into Little Ruby's not expecting much, but I ended up loving it. The service was good and I felt welcomed by everyone. The menu has a lot of highlights, mainly the whipped avocado and the sticky date pudding (amazing). My only little concern is that the front gets very crowded because the door to enter/exit the restaurant is also the only door to get to the patio. There is a garage in the structure where they can validate parking to and they also have matchbooks if you're a collector!

Little Ruby's ~ What I Ordered ~ - Strawberry Lemonade ($6) - Spicy Vodka Pasta ($21) - French Fries with Truffle Aioli ($8) - Sticky Date Pudding ($12) ~ Review ~ Little Ruby's is an Australian-inspired, all-day café that originally started in New York and has recently expanded to Dallas. The interior is quite narrow, with limited space to move around, but they do offer outdoor seating. I loved the decor and lighting of this restaurant. As for the service, I felt rushed throughout the meal. At one point, the waitress asked if I wanted my food boxed up while I was still actively eating, even though we had only been there for a little over an hour. That part definitely took away from the experience. The food also took a while to come out, and we weren't asked if we wanted dessert, which made the service feel inattentive overall To start, I ordered the strawberry lemonade. All of their juices are made fresh, and this one was very refreshing. For my main, I tried the spicy vodka pasta. It had a strong basil flavor, which made it taste different from a typical spicy vodka pasta. Since I'm not a fan of basil, I found it to be just average and have definitely had better spicy rigatoni elsewhere. Interestingly, it tasted better the next day, with a less pronounced basil taste. The fries came with an aioli sauce that was exactly what you'd expect - good, but nothing memorable. On their own, the fries weren't particularly a standout either. The highlight of the meal was the sticky date pudding for dessert. It was served warm with ice cream and was absolutely delicious. I especially appreciated that it wasn't overly sweet. Overall, I think this spot is better suited for drinks and dessert rather than a dinner. ~ Rating: 6/10 ~

Tried Little Ruby's Café for the first time last night and had a great experience. The space is super cute inside with a warm, slightly dark ambiance that feels perfect for either a casual dinner or a date night. The calamari was amazing and a great way to start the meal. I also tried a couple of the non-alcoholic drinks, the passionfruit ginger and the strawberry lemonade, and both were excellent and really refreshing. For cocktails, I had the spritz with prosecco and St-Germain, which was light, refreshing, and well balanced. Food-wise everything was really strong. The bolognese was delicious and the noodle texture was perfect. No notes there. The spicy vodka pasta was flavorful and actually had a real kick to it, which I appreciated. The salmon was the standout for me. It was cooked beautifully and the sauce it came in was incredible. Very velvety, flavorful, but still light. I would highly recommend ordering the salmon. Service was great, very attentive and kind throughout the meal. If they are newly opened, they are already off to a strong start. Definitely recommend checking it out and I'll absolutely be back within the next 30 days.

Enjoyed a great lunch here on a rainy afternoon by starting the meal off with some of their truffle aioli fries (not pictured). You can tell this is a local favorite as nearly every table was filled. Both pastas came out piping hot and tasted delicious. I could see why they were as busy as they are.

Very satisfied with this spot! The decor is so cute and I loved sitting outside. Our server was nice and attentive. I had the Bronte burger with a side of fries and a strawberry lemonade. The strawberry lemonade was DELICIOUS! Hands down the best strawberry lemonade I've ever had. The Bronte burger was great! I got the mayo and sweet chili on the side just so I can taste the burger for what it is. I ended up getting a to go box because of how good it was (I wanted to save for later). I didn't feel sluggish after eating it which how you'd usually feel after eating a burger so I don't know what type of meat was used but I very much recommend! read more

The Negroni that could and glinted like a deeply colored Ruby in the medium light of the bar. Hey, you don't need no stinkin rock, get it served up, let the liquid carry you as the barista uses simple fancy equipment to mix up various coffee combinations in front of you. Let me point out the barista and mixologist were the exact opposite of the uppity uptown clientele, returning latte's because the art wasn't adequate. Use whole milk numbskull, information gained as I chatted up the friendly staff. The entitled uptown patron sours my stomach. Rant officially complete. Little Ruby's is an absolute gem with an assortment of offerings. All done well, fresh and teaming with flavors. Not to travel backwards, but there was a bit of that uppityness at the front door. I prefer friendliness and intelligence to beauty and . Definitely get in there and bring your speaking voice. The pace of the place picks up quickly and can be a bit loud. Arriving for a late lunch might be a better move, you can lazily chat over a great salad, burger and did I mention the Negroni. A definite must try! read more

Pretty disappointed overall. We were most excited for the spicy vodka pasta, but it ended up being bland and overcooked. The chicken had a great crunch and the texture was solid, although it had almost no flavor. The shrimp toast was the one thing that stood out and I would give it about four stars, but it still was not anything unforgettable. The ambiance felt ordinary and the service was fine but nothing special. Not terrible, just nothing worth talking about later. Overall, it is hard to justify the hype or the price. read more

We had such an amazing experience at this restaurant on Saturday evening. We were a group of four, and our server, Arya truly made our visit unforgettable. I don't usually leave reviews, but this experience definitely deserved one. From the moment we sat down, Arya was incredibly friendly, attentive, and professional. Everything was handled perfectly, and the level of service honestly felt like a five-star restaurant. The food and drinks were also delicious and made the experience even better. Arya was knowledgeable, patient, and made sure we were comfortable the entire time. It's rare to come across someone who genuinely cares about their guests the way he did. 10/10 service - we will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend! read more

This is a tough review to write because our experience at Little Ruby's in Uptown Dallas started off so strong. Last night, Monday night, we had a 6pm reservation for a party of 4. There were only 4-5 tables occupied at that time. It did fill up by 6:45. We were seated immediately and the waiter was attentive until he was not. We had delicious cocktails, appetizers, and a shared large salad all on a well paced basis. Then we waited and waited for our main course. We clearly finished our salad by about 6:40, but then the empty plates weren't cleared and we waited. Finally at 7:10 I asked the waiter what was the status on our main dishes, and told him that we had a play at 8pm. The look on his face told me he didn't put in our main dish order. We didn't get our mains until 7:30 and I couldn't even tell you what they tasted like because we had to eat them so quickly. Luckily, we were close to the theatre, or else we would have missed the beginning of the play. I will say the manager did write off $47 off our check without us asking, I will give this place another try because of its strong start. read more

We went to the Little Ruby's in West Village two years ago and constantly reminisce on how delicious their food is! Specifically the Spicy Italian Sausage pasta. We were ecstatic to find out Little Ruby's has now come to Dallas! We went and once again, 5/5 did not disappoint. We split a Spicy Italian Sausage pasta and a Spicy Vodka pasta with crispy chicken added. Both were absolutely delicious but the Spicy Italian Sausage pasta will forever be my favorite.

Apothecary

Apothecary is a great spot for a date night or drinks with friends. They have two distinct spaces:…read moreAlchemy, which has a cozy, intimate vibe, and Archive, which feels more like a stylish lounge. We visited Alchemy and loved the atmosphere. The service was excellent, and our server gave us some great recommendations throughout the evening. We tried the I Dream of Kiwi, Only Fans, and the Soft Serve Margarita. The first two were refreshing, fruity, and packed with flavor, while the Soft Serve Margarita was a fun twist on a classic. For food, we had the Caesar salad, beef cheek tacos, and the Apothecary Burger with the truffle fries upgrade. The Caesar was a little too heavy on the dressing for my taste, making it quite fishy, so I'd recommend asking for the dressing on the side or going light on it. The burger with truffle fries was easily a 9/10, and the beef cheek tacos were just as good--tender, flavorful, and definitely worth ordering. One of the best parts is the happy hour offered every day until 6:30 PM, with all "Over the Counter" cocktails for $12 and 50% off food. It's one of the better happy hour deals in Dallas, especially considering the quality of the food, drinks, and overall experience. We'll definitely be back.

The staff was very inviting and I felt seen and talked to. I ordered: Icelandic hot dog: without happy hour price this would have been 7$. I would not recommend anyone order it at that price but for happy hour half off price, it was more reasonable. Scallop tostada thing: flavors were good. I think full price it was 6 or 8 dollars but for half price it was totally worth it and an interesting bite with food acidity Salmon dip: was gooey and huge and about 17$. I think the pieces of smoked salmon were a little too big for the chip. Pineapple dole whip drink: 12$ happy hour prices. It was Soo yummy and I loved the tajin on top and it was an alcoholic ice cream. Yumm Only fans: also a pretty good drink. Smooth but I would get the pineapple drink again. Overall great experience ,will come back to try some of the other menu items

Used to be 5+ star. This *was* a Dallas crown jewel of an upscale bar with fantastic service and…read moremusic, but it's flipped upside down. The hotel property is like four legs under the table - a great location, a great hotel experience, a great restaurant experience, and a entertainment experience (The Mansion Bar). At least one leg has been kicked out, one is suffering. The Mansion Bar used to have a great recipe for success - proven by how busy and regular the customers were and loyal (or was), and the top tier talent that was routine for 10+ years. Me and my friends have a relationship with the long time staff as customers as well as the excellent music talent. The cause? Not precisely sure but I think it's new ownership, at the very least a new Food & Bev manager. I also know the staff is very upset about these changes and the relationships with the repeat music talent is now a mess. I wouldn't be surprise if the staff start leaving. I'm hoping whomever is making these decisions can revert back to what was working. Dallas has a lot of great venues that will fill this void.

They were just okay. Definitely not the flavor I expected. I should've gone with the honey hot. The dirty fries, loaded with cheese, bacon, and peppers were really good, especially with ranch and ketchup . If you're looking for a cute holiday pop-up with festive décor and fun drinks, HIDE is worth checking out. Food and drinks start around $15 and up, so you're definitely paying for the experience

The items on the menu were up to par, but the food itself was not as great as it should be for what you're paying for it. We ordered caviar service which was done well. The lobster dish for 2 was a good portion of lobster and pasta. Do yourself a favor and order the chocolate cake for dessert (get this!) it was moist and indulgent!

Had a great experience overall at The Little Ruby's in Dallas. Our waitress, Ify, was absolutely wonderful--attentive, friendly, and made the entire evening feel special. Service was a solid 5/5. We went all in and ordered every appetizer on the menu, and honestly, that was the highlight. Each one was creative, flavorful, and really well executed--definitely worth it. That said, the main courses didn't quite live up to the same standard. The pasta à la vodka and the New York steak both fell short, landing closer to a 3/5. Overall, I'd come back--especially for the appetizers and service--but hoping for a bit more consistency across the full menu next time. read more
