    This Ruby's has the best exterior of any Ruby's in the history of Ruby's. Very cool with the classic cars outside. The retro atmosphere inside has the 50's music and red booths which are kept so clean they look like new. There was an average-sized crowd on a weekday lunch hour. I was seated in a booth which I preferred over the stools at the counter. They also have rooftop dining but I'm not sure it was open at the time. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger (which comes with fries) and a mint chocolate chip milkshake. The burger was as good as a diner burger can get. An above-average beef burger with several strips of smokey-delicious bacon, melted swiss cheese, tomato, lettuce, and their secret sauce. The fries were typical diner fries but were done perfectly and a massive amount were scattered on the plate. My milkshake came with the tin (essentially TWO milkshakes) and was excellent. It had a ton of tiny chocolate chips and was really thick. The mint flavor was subtle and, while I wish it were a little more prominent, it was still delish. Ruby's always makes a fantastic milkshake. According to my bill, Efrain was taking care of me that day, and he was really hustling, providing great service to the entire room. He was professional and polite and was the kind of waiter you wish you had every time you ate out. If you find yourself hungry as you drive along PCH on the south end of Laguna, you will find great diner food at Ruby's.

    Food and service get COMPLETE OPPOSITE reviews. The burger and chicken tenders were fantastic (love the ranch) and the shakes tasted great. Now the service unfortunately was SO WEIRDLY BAD. I brought someone here who has never been to California telling them this place is so good and the atmosphere is cool and old diner vibes. Instead we came at about 3pm on a weekday and there were only two other couples there besides us. Every single interaction we had with our server was because we flagged him down to our table and not because he had come to check on us. Took 15 minutes before our server came and then he told me only order drinks right now and he'd be back for the food order. Crazy how after saying that he ended up completely forgetting about our shakes and I had to ask for them when he finally brought out our food. One of my favorite things to do is dip my french fries in my shake so I had to sit there and wait for him to go make our shakes which I saw him go do after I asked about them. And because I was so focused on us not getting our shakes I didn't realize we didn't get any ranch on the side for dipping and didn't want to eat my chicken tenders without it so I waited over 5 minutes for our server to come back into the room somewhere but he was no where to be found. It took so long my food started getting cold so I just walked up to the front counter where what looked like the manager sat on his phone. I asked for some ranch and then finally got some. The manager seemed completely uninterested in being there and was on his phone most of the time while we got terrible service. At the very end our server disappeared again so finally we just got up and went to the front and asked to pay. Our server hadn't even put together our bill yet so we had to wait for him to do that before he came up with the bill and then walked away promptly without saying anything so I awkwardly said can I pay with my card to the sweet girl that was working that day who had arrived at the end of our time there and she checked me out. I always tip but this time it just felt so wrong to do so with how we were treated so I paid for my food and left. You can see our server in the background of the photo with my shakes and also can clearly see how I wasn't exaggerating when I said there were only two other couples eating in the entire place. Sadly I don't see myself ever coming back. There's other locations I can go to in Orange County that are SO much better.

    Great trip down memory lane dining at this Ruby's location with all the vintage cars and 50's decor. You can't beat them for Burgers, shakes, fries and other good stuff! Fun place to visit across from the Montage in Laguna Beach and my Impossible burger was DELICIOUS!

    After a day at the beach with my brother's family and mine we came here to have dinner. They sat us immediately with a friendly welcome. Our waitress was amazing. Patient and kind to us and the kids. It's the cutest place to eat at specially with the kids. The interiors are old fashioned and cool. The second floor has outdoor seating overlooking the ocean. I went up to watch the sunset for a few mins. Loved it. The food was good, we got burgers, sandwiches and salad. Everyone enjoyed their meals. I got the Chinese chicken salad and my son got the club sandwich. Both good choices. After dinner we ordered ice cream Sundays and ice cream shakes. All amazing, I would say better than the main meals lol ... next time I'll skip dinner and have one of these milk shakes. Overall a great place to eat while in the area specially with kids or large groups. We had a great experience.

    Well done corned beef and hash, the food of the gods!!

    Everybody loves Ruby's!! I haven't been to this one in 20 years. It has changed zero, which is good. I was sad that we lost the one at the end of the Huntington Beach pier... Eating at the Ruby's inside John Wayne I got hooked on the corned beef hash.. I told them to crisp it right up and that's exactly what they did!!! It caramelizes the corned beef and makes it taste like candy! Actually salty candy!! The whole idea behind caramel corn, salty and sweet dichotomy!!!! Although I didn't ask for it, they crisped up the potatoes too, which were great .... Perfect service and comfortable booth in Laguna Beach..... what more could you want?

    Ruby's Diner is always a good choice when you want something classic. I got the fish and chips, a cherry Coke, and shakes after, and everything was honestly really good. The fish and chips were crispy, the cherry Coke hit, and the shakes were super good too. It's just a fun, easy spot with solid food and a good vibe. Definitely a place I'd go back to.

    I was driving down the Pacific Coast Highway and decided to stop in here for lunch. I've been to other Ruby's locations in the past, but this one is somewhat unique. They have several vintage cars parked out in front. The diner inside is not spacious, but it was not an especially busy day, so there was no problem. I ordered the grilled cheese sandwich for lunch, which I thought was pretty good. It had two kinds of cheese inside and it came with a side. I ordered the sweet potato fries which was a slight additional charge over regular french fries.

    This isn't my first time at Ruby's but it is my first time at this location. I LOVE this location. They have old school cars outside for the kids to look at, and they also have rooftop seating that over look the ocean. It was a little chilly so we opted to sit inside but the rooftop I'm sure is popular during summer! We were immediately greeted and seated in a booth. Armando was our server and he was great! He was patient with the kids ordering their milkshakes and food. Everything we ordered came out correct and as ordered except I had asked for Cajun fries with my burger and Armando quickly brought me a separate basket of Cajun fries to correct the mistake. We will definitely be coming back to this location specifically! The burgers were delicious and tasty, everyone wished they got the Cajun fries after trying them! Can't wait to come back!

    Made an effort to stop by here when I drove by on the coast. Foods here was great and the service staff was kind. It's a pretty unique Ruby's since it has the classic cars up front. Recommend you stop by for a shake just like the olden days

    Staff: The team here was nice but Jaime our server was the true rockstar. He was extremely attentive, friendly, followed up with what he said, helpful, and made our dining experience a great one. Brought in umbrellas when we asked and promptly turned off the heaters when requested. You could tell he was committed to our happiness. Quality/Quantity: The food was good as it always is here. We had a large group but sorry I didn't get the chance to take too many photos. The restaurant itself has been here for many years but perhaps a little refresh would be a good idea. There are several places showing aging with scuffs, paint chipping , and the bathrooms are showing their age. Though this must be done while maintaining the era that it represents. Despite this our experience was a really good one. Value: Seems to be fair in my opinion. Overall: I love this restaurant and sadly they have become harder to find with some locations closing. We enjoyed our day and will be back again.

    Double bacon cheeseburger and the fried green beans! Highly recommended oh my gosh everything was perfection!

    I've been here a few times now and I'm not understanding at all why they have negative reviews. Ambience is fantastic, the service is great and the food is good! It's well priced! It's fresh! So the only thing I can think of is that there must be a competitor nearby? I love the location the rooftop is beautiful. This place needs to have more reviews that are positive. Every time I see negative reviews I'm surprised by it. As far as for them being rude to people that are not white? Almost every time I've been there my weight stuff and the person greeting me and feeding me has been Mexican? So something is up with these negative reviews for sure.

    It's been many years since I've not only been to Ruby's but to this location. The last time I was here, I had dined for lunch with an old co-worker. The place is just as it was over twenty years ago. Goodness...I've aged myself. We arrived during sundown on a summer day and left close to closing time. The restaurant barely had patrons so we were seated immediately. The seats are bright red just as they've always been, with white walls and old style framed poster girls. The hostess and server were polite, as well as a young lady whose name escaped me. She was not our server but she was very observant and noticed that sitting in the booth we were in, was quite uncomfortable. She approached us and offered to seat us at a table that would be much more accommodating. I didn't even ask her. She was just an awesome young lady. What we ordered; 1) bacon cheeseburgers with fries - My kid who loves the underrated Farmer Boys burgers, said he would choose Farmer Boys and Red Robin over the Ruby's burger. He liked it, but of the three it wasn't his favorite. 2) hickory burger with fries - hubby loves this one because of the onion rings and bacon. 3) kids Mac n cheese with fries - free with an adult entree on Tuesdays. Looked a bit dry but the kid ate the entire serving. 4) kids cheeseburger with fries - also free with an adult entree on Tuesdays 5) three chocolate milkshakes - SO DELICIOUS 6) simple salad - This is romaine lettuce with cucumber, tomatoes and croutons. I couldn't make a decision on dressings, so I asked for balsamic and thousand island on the side to figure out which one I wanted to have. I should've just done ranch. Both balsamic and thousand island were way too tangy for me that it was not enjoyable and burned my throat. Also not a fan of romaine for salads. 7) bowl of clam chowder - too salty and barely had any clams. I was honestly not in the mood for Ruby's and despite my saying I wanted to go elsewhere, this is where we ended up. From how I recall the food many years ago, it just wasn't that good anymore. It's a nostalgic place and I enjoy the theme. I was not satisfied with dinner on this day. Would I come back? I guess? Not sure. If I do come back, I'll try the guacamole or the super burger instead. Thank you for the wonderful service though. We really appreciated it.

    Chocolate Shake
    Tiffany T.

    I had the Hickory Burger that was truly juicy and delicious. The BEST chocolate shake I have ever had. The service was great. I felt like I was in a scene from the movie Greece. This is a huge compliment. Everyone was extremely respectful and wholesome. It was an awesome experience. The Ambiance was very 50's car hop style. very clean and spotless. I loved it!!!

    I can't believe it took me this long to experience Nick's, especially as someone who's deeply…read morefamiliar with the Laguna dining scene. To put it simply: this is the kind of place Laguna has been missing. From the moment we walked in, the energy felt dialed-in in a way that immediately reminded me of a Hillstone experience -- polished but not pretentious, lively but still intimate. That balance is incredibly hard to execute, and Nix nails it. For context, I'm part owner of 230 Forest Avenue, so I don't say this lightly: Nix easily lands in my top five in Laguna Beach. We started with Aperol spritzes (perfectly balanced, not overly sweet), along with a couple of appetizers -- including a fried asparagus dish that was addictive in the best way. Crisp, flavorful, and gone way too quickly. For mains, I ordered the veggie burger, which was genuinely one of the best I've had -- hearty, well-seasoned, and thoughtfully constructed (not an afterthought, which vegetarian options so often are). My boyfriend had the noodle salad, which was fresh, vibrant, and layered with flavor. But beyond the food, what really stood out was the overall experience. The atmosphere feels intentional , great music, beautiful crowd, and a buzz that makes you want to linger. It's the kind of place where dinner effortlessly turns into drinks, and drinks turn into "should we just stay a little longer?" Laguna Beach doesn't have a ton of restaurants that hit this level across the board -- food, service, ambiance, and energy, but Nix absolutely does. We'll be back, and soon.

Then came the artichoke appetizer and the soup of the day... and honestly, I could've stopped there and been happy. But we powered through like professionals and went for a late lunch entrée, the Chilean sea bass- and WOW. Worth every bite. And shoutout to our server and the entire staff, total pros. Super polished, attentive, and clearly know what they're doing without being over the top. If you're looking for amazing food with a cool, laid-back vibe, Nick's is your spot. Just come hungry... and maybe wear stretchy pants.

No decaf, just a one carafe/dispenser with cream & sugar packets. It was Sunday morning at 11 and no coffee. We asked 3 times over 10 minutes time and they couldn't get it out. Last request, the gentleman we asked twice already (who said he would put out the dispenser) sent a young lady to go get us a cup from behind the counter. That coffee cup was overfilled and tasted burnt. We didn't ever get the 2 cups we purchased. They had a lot of staff, just not taking care of people. A lot of customers walked in and back out, because tables weren't cleaned. Also I think they may have expected a place where you sit down & get waited on. We wish we had not stayed. Food came out fairly fast. The chicken & waffles were not good. Chicken fingers were dry, coated in unseasoned batter, and waffle was soft, no butter served. We asked & were given 2 little butter pats. Pancakes were very generous size, but gummy, not airy. Eggs were cooked over easy- those were fine. For $50 (2 of us) it was a very disappointing breakfast.

    Took my mother-in-law here for her birthday and we all had such a great experience!…read more We got there around 4-4:15pm and had about a 20 minute wait, but we were able to find a high top table that we got to sit at and were able to order drinks from the bar, so that helped to pass our time. We got seated at our table at our table around 4:30p and had the most perfect view of the ocean! *we went on a Friday night and noticed the patio cleared out about 4:45-5pm and I didn't appear to have a lot of people waiting during that time. The main patio was covered with umbrellas, so once you are seated for dinner, there was plenty of umbrellas for shade and heaters for when it got a little cooler. For our food orders, and as recommended by our server, we went with their seafood options and ordered their Pacific Ceviche for an appetizer and for Entrees my husband got the Roasted Halibut and me and my mother-in-law both got the Scallop and Shrimp pasta. We all loved our dishes and were very satisfied with our choices. Their menu does have non-seafood options, but why not to try what they're most prominent for? They don't have a dessert menu, but they heard that we were celebrating mom's birthday so they brought us a little Toffee Cake to share and enjoy...and for a place that doesn't have dessert, the cake was pretty delicious. Such a cute place all around. My husband and I can't wait to go back! Parking - they have valet parking available right in front of the restaurant or theres street metered parking in the surrounding area.

    a bit difficult to find and is really small. i didn't eat here because of how busy it was. it was…read moreso busy there was someone in the way at the end of the stairs. wasn't a big fan of the environment. probably not a place for younger people or something because older people that were there were staring, of course i know it's not the restaurants fault just saying. got there around 5pm put name on wait for 2 people and was told about an hour. i was told to not order from the bar while i waited, never heard of that before as i also work at a restaurant. not sure what the policy is here for that. i was ok with waiting, but i went back to ask for a table by the rail since i was waiting a bit already anyway. the lady in front of me put her name down and was told her wait time would be 30-40 mins, so i was confused why hers was shorter than mine maybe the wait time changed and i'd wait less? anyway i told the host my request to sit by the rail and she said it would be a little longer, but that's ok that's what i expected. i actually never received a text that my table was ready and i thought maybe it was the wrong number put down, but who knows. kind of disappointed because i saw this place online a year ago and was excited to finally try it. i didnt get to and just went to eat somewhere else

    After an overnight backpacking trip through Crystal Cove State Park, me and two friends hiked out…read morein the morning and headed over to The Beachcomber pretty hungry. We were hoping to make the breakfast menu but just missed it, so we ended up ordering lunch instead. Even on a busy Saturday afternoon, the wait was only about 30 minutes, and they give you a buzzer so you can freely walk around while waiting. That actually worked out great since there's a lot to explore nearby. We checked out the Crystal Cove shop, the small park/history office nearby, and even a cool little film museum in one of the preserved cottages with vintage movie equipment. I ended up ordering the steak sandwich, and it was seriously filling -- I could only finish about half even after hiking earlier that morning. Everything in the sandwich complemented each other really well without overpowering the steak itself, and the steak was cooked perfectly medium like I ordered. The fries were also surprisingly amazing: super crispy and addictive. We also shared the beignets, which were honestly one of my favorite parts of the meal. They were super flaky and almost croissant-like inside instead of the usual dense beignet texture, and the chocolate syrup with whipped cream paired perfectly with them. The service was great throughout the meal. Our server was attentive and checked in often to make sure we had everything we needed. The ambiance inside was really unique too. We sat closer to the kitchen in a darker wood-filled dining area that almost felt like being inside an old wooden boat. The booths were a little small for me since I'm on the taller side, but overall it added to the cozy atmosphere. I really enjoyed the experience and would love to come back someday to try their breakfast menu. Even though it gets busy with families and beachgoers on weekends, the restaurant handles the crowds efficiently, and having the beach and nearby attractions to explore while waiting makes the whole experience even better.

    I stayed overnight at Crystal Cove Cottage last night and had a nice breakfast at your restaurant…read morethis morning. The weather is nice and I enjoyed my meal at your restaurant, which all of my family likes. But the behavior of our table waitress made us feel bad. Her name is Nancy and when I asked her for the receipt after the meal, she suddenly pointed her finger at us and ignored it and passed by. I don't think it's possible for an employee to hold back with finger to a customer. I wonder if you are educating employees to behave this way. I had a delicious meal after a pleasant break, but her behavior completely ruined my mood. It seems that education is needed to prevent such behavior from ever again.
