First, the food: Delicious and nicely put together. The combinations, possibilities and seasoning make the menu selections excellent - for eating at the Food Court, or even as take-out. The noodles were not overdone, nor were they sticky. The fried tofu was toothsome on the outside and creamy on the inside. The fried fish (in the fish combo) was moist inside and crunchy on the outside. The portions were oversized, allowing two people to share one entrée EASILY. The Padh Thai was wonderful. But the fried fish could have been drained a bit better.
Second, everything else: At a mall food court, I never expect either the ambience or the service to equal that of a sit-down eatery. Let's be clear on that. But Ruby Thai surprised me, because the assistants behind the counter appeared to be disorganized, with no clear path to the order you placed. To make things worse, the folks behind the counter were so focused on giving out samples to passers-by, that they'd shout "Samples!" loudly right into your face, while you were waiting for your order to be assembled.
Would I go there again? ABSOLUTELY. The food is delicious, and the portions are large enough to share. read more
