    I really liked the food and the price , very friendly service too ... we had a soup and a combo

    They really stepped it up a notch at Ruby Thai Kitchen inside the food court at Oakridge Mall in South San Jose. Cashiers are friendly. I only remember the place as a takeout foods fast foods. They actually have Beef Rib Bone Noodle Soup $17.59 and Mango Coconut Pudding $5.00 here. I had a spicy bowl and the beef rib bone was huge! Meat was softer and more tender than crockpot style meats. It may taste a bit bland, but ok. Dip it into the hoisin chili sauce and sprinkle the lime juice. This one meat can feed 2-3 people. I can only finish 1/3 of it and was very full. Mifun noodles were good. Decent for food court selections. Soup wasn't too salty. Vegetables were plentiful. Honestly, I didn't expect to eat a large beef rib bone today, but wow, it's huge! Mango coconut pudding was on the watery and softer texture side, but delicious to drink. Staffs were nice people. It's good to see improvements here. I would try other noodle soups if convenient. It's not my regular spot or preference for eating out, but for food court quality, their foods don't taste bad here. If you're looking for huge portions in one order to feed a few people, they definitely have huge portions for noodle soups. It's hard to judge a familiar spot by the cover. My lunch was decent, so maybe 3.6-3.7 stars for review? I'll leave a 3 for now, but noodle soups are worth exploring. It still lacks standard good restaurant quality in a way, but no complaints. Overall, I'm satisfied for food court vibes.

    Combo 2 (Lomein, Fried Rice, Grilled BBQ Chicken, Bang-Bang Chicken)
    Amy L.

    Wanted to stop by the mall food court because we were hungry. Got the Combo 2 with lo mein, fried rice, grilled chicken and bang bang chicken. As a person who's not a fan of Panda Express, I wasn't expecting much from a place that pretty much operates like a Panda Express but I was pretty impressed. The 2 chicken entrees we chose were not dry at all. The grilled chicken was my favorite, tasted good and moist. The bang bang chicken is a fried chicken with sauce and I typically expect those to be dry on the inside but nope! That one was perfectly juicy as well! I might have gotten lucky with a fresh batch but I was very impressed. Nothing to note about the fried rice and noodles. They were both ok. If I was ever hungry at the mall again, I would come back for the grilled chicken again

    Won ton soup
    Dino D.

    01/22/26 stopped by to try something new. Glad I did. We ordered the beef noodle soup and a won ton noodle soup. Both of them very good. The price to portion was good. Staff very nice. Cooking stations looked clean. One thing I like about ordering soups at a food court restaurant is soups are made to order and are fresh. You get it hot. Better than food sitting in containers under a heat lamp or over hot water. The dining area is maintained by the mall. Depending on when you come it can be very busy. I would recommend this place.

    My brother and I have been going here forever. The food is always 100%. The service is has always been intentive. I love their noodles and their chicken.

    Look at that and try to tell me that doesn't look f***ing mouthwatering.

    Why the hell does this place have 3 stars right now? That's ridiculous. I was there the other day and they practically saved my life. I'm health conscious and that whole food court is effed for people like me----except for Ruby Thai Kitchen! While the Apple Store system was down and I had a choice to either sit in two hours of traffic going back to Santa Cruz or wait and get some food, I walk by, and the restaurant next to Ruby tries to entice me with a sample of some meat. I said I am a vegan and asked if they had anything with tofu. The man at Ruby said "we have tofu" and pointed to not just one, not just two, not even just three, but a whole bunch of vegan options. I ended up going with a soup, which was very impressive for what was technically fast food. The tofu was divine. Honestly it was surprising. I also enjoyed the fried plantains. I went back to the Apple Store less hangry and satisfied. Thank you for having actual vegan options. What is wrong with all these other restaurants and chains? More and more people are leaning toward ethical diets that don't involve breeding, torturing, and ruthlessly murdering animals so fat people can get fatter. Yes, I said it. I hope you all enjoy my candid comment.

    Order 2 plates when I got the food and I was eating it there was a piece of metal in one of the plates. This is a health hazard they need to be more careful I will not be returning ever

    Love this place as my new default go to for Asian food at the mall. The line for chicken teriyaki is way too lunch during peak meal times, but Ruby Thai has short lines that serve their customers well with quality food and service. What I ordered: -Lo Mein: Not too oily noodles, but could use more seasoning since it was on the dry side. -Mango Chicken: An absolute banger in their meat options. It's a customer favorite all around with its crunchy, tender meat. -Lemongrass Shrimp: Be advised that this menu item has an added fee since shrimp is a premium, but the seasoning was so well done on the shrimp. Mellow flavor from the lemongrass and crispy from the golden battered shrimp.

    I usually mostly get food from Ruby Thai Kitchen when I'm at the mall, either at Westfield Oakridge or Great Mall. They're usually the same in terms of quality/taste and quantity. I get the fried fish and the Singapore noodles. They're both pretty delicious. I like the shrimps too. The curry chicken is another entre to try! The Thai Iced Tea never disappoints. Overall, a good place for a quick grab and go!

    Teriyaki Chicken Lemon Garlic Shrimp  Lomein
    Emely C.

    Lemon garlic shrimp never disappoints! One of my favorite food stands at Oakridge! The Singapore vermicelli noodles are very good too! Although I don't recommend the pad Thai, too little flavor for me.

    Mango chicken combination plate. Chicken good. Noodles terrible and cold. Fried rice was average. 2 out of 5 stars.

    All I need to say here is it's the absolute worse food I've ever had. This is not Thai food. It's a sorry wannabe Panda Express.

Jeff, the chef (rhymes!), was kind and welcoming. He could tell it was our first time and went out of his way to check in, give advice on what to order, and how to enjoy it. The wagyu and chicken soup were both outstanding -- flavorful, hearty, and healthy. Here's the part that took it over the top for me: they had accidentally forgotten our fried tofu.

That's top-notch customer service. I'm now a promoter and will definitely keep coming back. Highly recommend!

Staff are friendly, spot is pretty small but kid-friendly and self-serve utensil tables. The Wagyu Soup Noodle bowl was super bland. So much so that my partner had to add a ton of chili sauce, and I had to add other seasoning toppings. Would be open to trying the beef noodle soup next time but the Waygu soup bowl wasn't it. Pig ears were pretty good but sliced super thin.. thinner than the onions..

So I would not wait here for more than 20min for the food, but 10min is fine enough. We got the beef donburi with a mini udon, as well as a curry udon with a side of shrimp and veggies tempura. The beef donburi was very good and hit the spot, as well the curry udon. You just can't go wrong with those orders imo. I wish we didn't get the sides because that was just too much food. Service wasn't the best but that's to be expected since it was so packed. We had to catch our waiters attention everytime we wanted to order, get more water, or get the check. And that was pretty hard to do, to get them to look at us because they were just running around. We were seated on a counter top with other people and we didn't mind but it's something to note if that's not your favorite type of seating.
