Great food and Alfredo is the best waiter. He remembered us from the day before and was fantastic. Hope to come back again and see him!!!

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 read more

3/3/2026 Had a fantastic breakfast this morning at Ruby's in Corona Del Mar. Imelda and Alfredo were terrific in providing quality friendly and professional service. I had a cup of coffee, the ABC omelet with sliced tomatoes and cottage cheese. The food was perfect and the ambiance also peaceful and serene. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and must say this location and the one in Redondo Beach are my two favorite Ruby's. Highly recommended. read more

Stopped by for a breakfast date with the family. We were seated immediately by their very friendly and accommodating staff. The kids loved the trolley track above our table. They turned on the trolley for us so the kids could be entertained. Food was great. Parking was easy (and free!) Will definitely come back again. read more

I ordered the chicken tenders and they had literally no flavor whatsoever. The meal was so bad it literally ruined my entire 2 week vacation. Will not be coming back. read more

One of my favorite places to go in CDM. I love the food , service hosts and ambience that this place offers. I had the cranberry sauce turkey sandwich with French fries and it was amazingly delicious. It's like Thanksgiving Day dinner and just love this sandwich. The hostess Faith was pleasantly welcoming and very friendly and attentive. I got my drinks and food pretty fast. Eric the other server had a great personality and all the team at this location is amazing. They all work well together and thank you for being friendly. So if you are in the CDM area or cruising around PCH definitely a great place to get a shake with some yummy fries... love it and definitely a two thumbs up on my book !!! read more

One of our favorite places to have breakfast in Newport Beach. Easy access with plenty of parking on Pacific Coast Highway. We love to split one of their Very Big Breakfasts. 3 eggs, ham and sausage, hash browns and toast or pancakes. Plenty of food for two. And we always ask for our favorite waiter - Alfredo. Funny, friendly, and great service! read more

My mom and I decided to have lunch at this Ruby's since we were in the area. The parking lot next to the Ruby's was a little inconvenient, and it was already quite full, but we managed to find a spot. We came on a Friday at 12 and it was relatively busy. Luckily, we were able to sit down immediately and our waiter, Caesar, was very quick to take our orders. I got the chicken tender salad and my mom got the fish and chips. Our food came out quick! We both enjoyed our meals. The tenders on the salads were generously sized and my mom loved the fries that came with her meal. Overall, it was a nice spot to grab lunch. The interior was cute and very reminiscence of the older Ruby's vibe. I'd come back! read more

Ruby's Diner - Chicken Tender Salad - Burgers Near Me - Newport Beach, California

FOOD. Ordered a regular burger with fries and chocolate shake. Burger: the pre-shaped beef patty was very dry, not very thick and tasteless. The meat lacked beef flavor. The bun was dry and not soft. On the other hand, the lettuce and small slice of tomato that accompanied the burger tasted fresh. The beef burger was terrible and overpriced for a burger. Rated 0/5 stars. Fries: the fries were not greasy and had a good potato flavor. Rated 4/5 stars. Chocolate shake: the chocolate shake was good. Rated 4/5 stars. AMBIANCE. Ruby's is a franchise. The interior of the restaurant has counter seating and various other seating options. The restaurant was clean with plenty of large windows. However, it became noisy because some little kids were acting up nearby - although that's NOT the fault of Ruby's. We didn't stay very long due to the noise level. Rated 4/5 stars. SERVICE. The service was excellent and our server (his name was Omar) was friendly, attentive and efficient. There were no errors with our order - thank you. Rated 5/5 stars. LOCATION. Ruby's Corona Del Mar is located along East Coast Highway with a small parking lot located nearby and parking is free in the parking lot. read more

We both had burgers. I ordered the Impossible Burger with a side salad and a lemonade drink. It was so delicious! My daughter ordered the bacon burger, and a chocolate shake. We were both completely satisfied with the food and the service. We will be back! Yum! read more

It is Ruby's so you know what you get, although I did think this place had better tasting food than most Ruby's. What really brought it home was the outstanding service we had. Attentive waitress who paid attention. And greeted regulars by name. read more

If you grew up in Orange County, Ruby's is just a warm plate of nostalgia. No matter how long I've been away, when I come back, order my burger and shake, and take that first bite, I'm transported back to when I was in elementary school and my parents would take us here as a treat. I really love Ruby's. This location is on par with any other location you'll go to. Aesthetic is the usual throwback vibe and waitstaff is attentive and cheerful. I've never had a bad experience here. And that continues to the food. Everything comes out quickly and tastes fresh and warm and is just the right portion size. You're not going to be bringing any leftovers home (probably) but I also don't think you are going to leave hungry. And if you're still hungry after your main meal, might I suggest getting a milkshake? (If you do, don't get it to go. Order it for dine in that way you get your glass AND the leftovers from the tin cup they mixed everything in. Worst case, you don't finish it and then ask for a cup to take the rest to go). They have parking along the side of the restaurant.. I know some people here have complained that parking isn't great, but I've never had too much trouble. You might not be able to instantly park and walk in, but I've never struggled. read more

Wonderful service and fabulous food. We've been coming for many years because of Ruby's consistency. So good!

Been coming here for years and always enjoy the experience! Came for breakfast and Fernando the manager and Omar the server were amazing!! We sat at the counter and loved watching the organization and seeing how clean everything was. Thank you Ruby's team for another great experience! read more

This was the second of three Ruby's Diners I recently ate at in one day (!!!) for my stepfather's recent 80th birthday celebration. It definitely had a vintage feel to it, and I'm guessing it's been here for awhile. It would probably appeal mostly to people at the older end of the Boomer spectrum. My veggie burger was very good and the service was good. Others in my party weren't as happy with their food as I was, but it was fine. Parking across the street had signs implying it was very restrictive re: time, but the restaurant personnel said it wasn't a problem so we risked it and we were fine. read more

Ruby's Diner - The Classic - Burgers Near Me - Newport Beach, California

Hadn't been to a Ruby's in over a decade; happily it hasn't changed! Love the 1950s diner vibe. Everyone was cheery on our Saturday lunch visit and although bustling, we were sat immediately. Alfredo was fantastic with a great personality and humor for days. Loved that I could have lunch while my friend had breakfast. Their Ruby (patty) Melt and onion rings are comfort food at its best. The French toast platter and bacon was also a huge hit. We left stuffed. Two full meals with wine for me and it was only $40 - what a deal! On PCH but happily they've got a dedicated free parking lot so it's super convenient. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! read more

I had a great experience! Of course most of us know about Ruby's. Hamburger, fries and a shake with a diner vibe. The service was great, everyone was so friendly. The restaurant was super clean and organized. The classic hamburger and fries were fresh and delicious! I usually don't order desserts often but I ordered a chocolate shake and it was the perfect addition. I love this location as it's on PCH in Corona Del Mar and it makes it that much more enjoyable and a nice treat! I would absolutely come back even for just a quick milkshake stop! read more

I have been coming here for years. It is my sons favorite place. The service is amazing. The staff are so welcoming and there isn't any request that they wouldn't say no to. A couple of servers, Jose and Alberto are the best at what they do and the manager Fernando is the one leading by example. They greet you with a smile and make sure everything is perfect. Thank you Ruby's. read more

Hint hint: they have a private parking lot right beside this location! Our diner-dressed servers were so friendly and attentive. We were here for a work event and they reserved an entire section for us. We had onion rings - if you come here you must order these. They were perfectly fried and they give you multiple ample dipping sauces so they don't become boring half way through your pile. Haha. The green beans were ok. Crispy but lacked flavor. The burger was meh. Typical burger flavor. You'll need to add sauce and salt. Fried cod was ok. Also lacking flavor but fried to perfect crispy. The fried shrimp were not bad. The only thing that was disappointing were the fries. Limp and lukewarm at serving. Maybe you can ask for a quick flash fry to crispy because I know they can do it. The decor is like all the other Ruby's locations. It's nostalgia inducing and good for an ok lunch. Enjoy! read more

Great time and great food brings back memories. Server was kind and courteous. Was glad we stopped by.

We all had burgers they were good, but staff was super nice, i was being a big kid and wanted a car, they were nice to give all us one.

If I could rate it 0 stars I would. First when I arrived to the restaurant, it wasn't very full + I was ordering to go, so I expected service to be FAST! But when ordering just 3 milkshake, I was told that it would take 8-10 mins. Which is completely understandable, but when it takes 40 mins. That's not expectable! I am very upset because when I told the server he seemed not to care, nor have a sense of urgency. And instead of making the situation better and offering an incentive, they told me they won't refund me my 24 dollars. Will not come again to this location. read more

Amazing service, good family atmosphere friendly servers overall enjoyable . All the food we got was great! They have cute hi chairs

We eat here every time we come to Newport and this time we've already eaten here twice. The kids are still begging to go back for a third time. Their double hot fudge brownie sundae is one of the best desserts I've ever had. read more

Great service, good food. Nice rewards program too. Got $10 off today. Need to add words to make 85 chatacter review.

Great food and great service and great atmosphere. Enjoyed the huevos rancheros and egg scramble

Was excited to come to Rubys since the ones by us have closed. It is wonderful that they have a parking lot because parking is difficult here the clam chowder had no clams and was cold. The hamburger was too well done and we weren't asked how we wanted it cooked. My water was never refilled or asked the waiter Jorge had quite an attitude. read more

Ruby's Diner - Location - Burgers Near Me - Newport Beach, California

First time here. I didn't know there was a Ruby's here. Great location. Great staff/service. Great food. Great parking. Great, great, great. It's evident that the staff is happy and unified. As soon as you enter, you feel the positive vibes. It's so refreshing. Let's support this business all the more. It's also excellent to see that this restaurant does not have any health violations. That's so rare to see these days. Now onto the food. I was semi-good. I got a kids meal. The burger was fresh and satisfying. The veggies were fresh too. The fries were so crispy and good. Lots of smiles all around from customers and staff. This may be the other Happiest Place On Earth (next to Disney)??! Happy Friday, Jr., folks! read more
