A word from Ruby's Oyster Bar and Bistro
Ruby's is a brilliant gem in downtown Rye. It is chic, casual and comfortable. It charms guests with its varied menu, friendly and professional service, and its lively ambience. Ruby's stylish décor showcases an authentic zinc bar from Paris, beaded chandeliers and ruby red drapes. From its… coffered ceiling and tasseled sconces down to its marble mosaic floor, no precious stone has been left unturned.Continued

Diner Reviews
  • "The food always is good, and some nights it is outstanding. On our last visit, it was outstanding."
    Dined on 3/9/2014
  • "Wonderful food, great selection and not skimpy on it."
    Dined on 2/7/2014
  • "Great find! We dropped in on a Friday night in January without a reservation, well cared for and the food was outstanding. Great selections, everything delicious. We had such a great experience we went back on Saturday for an afternoon snack. Later that evening while searching the local area for "someplace else" to go, we could not come up with anything we wanted more...so yes, we went back to Ruby's again for dinner. Looking forward to our next visit to Westchester....as we will most likely go back....again."

  • "Ruby's is great! The tuna tartare pizza is to die for! The service is great. You can walk in off the street for a quick, delicious lunch and you don't have to break up the day by being out in the middle of nowhere at some quiet restaurant. Feels like the city, but the prices are reasonable. There are plenty of small, lunch size choices, so you don't feel like you need a nap afterwards. Soups, salads, appetizers, seafood, you name it. It is also great for dinner, groups of 6-8 for birthdays, or just drinks at the bar. My favorite restaurant in Rye!"

  • "If your in the mood for Seafood, this is your place. Always fresh & delicious. The Liver is great too!"
    Dined on 1/23/2014
  • "I'm really happy that the brunch/lunch menu is pretty extensive so that everybody in a group can be satisfied with their choice. The service is exceptional and the food is fresh and well prepared. I just wish that the tables weren't so crowded together. It's hard to leave your table without shoving someone else's chair and a crying child can literally be 2 feet from you."
    Dined on 1/19/2014
  • "Really lovely restaurant. Great decor (looks just like bistros in Paris) and excellent food!"

    Dined on 1/11/2014
  • "We had brunch on New Years Day and it was wonderful. The service was upbeat and attentive. It was early and not busy yet which was great because we were with an elderly person. It seems this would be a very noisy restaurant at night with a lively bar scene."
    Dined on 1/1/2014

    Dined on 1/1/2014
  • "We were delightfully surprised to find this gem of a local restaurant for a New Year's Eve dining experience. We're pretty critical of the meal that we eat out, and this was no disappointment. The serve staff, was in a word, exceptional. Friendly, knowledgeable, and highly professional. Definitely worth a repeat visit."

  • "nice spot in town with a good, diverse menu and great selection of oysters."
    Dined on 12/30/2013
  • "We went for brunch the Sunday before Christmas. As always, Ruby's was full and energetic -- speaks to how much everyone loves Ruby's for its always good food and drink as well as a fun atmosphere. Unfortunately, we had a very rude waitress who basically ignored us because, as she told us repeatedly, "she had a party of 15 upstairs" (we were a party of six). Waited for everything -- water, drinks, appetizers and food. When we called over another waitress and asked her to help out, our waitress got even more negative and annoyed with us and ignored us even more - hard to believe. She made us all very uncomfortable and unwelcome, not typical of Ruby's usual good service. Food, when it arrived, was very good."
    Dined on 12/22/2013
  • "We always can count on Ruby's for a good dinner. This was no exception. Everyone enjoyed their meals. The quality is always there."

  • "This is my second time to visit. I ordered BBQ Salmon which is very juicy. It is as same quality as NY City and we will visit again shortly."
    Dined on 11/16/2013
  • "The food was pretty good but the service was very very slow. We had to ask for our water, ask for extra cups and place settings for friends who joined us 5 minutes later... we didn't feel welcomed at all!"
    Dined on 11/4/2013
  • "Nice local place to grab a quick bite. Reasonably priced and nice bar scene."

  • "Lively spot for Saturday night, crowd at the bar and full for dinner by 8:00 p.m.; great selection of seafood, loved the oysters, chowder and swordfish; service was perfect, especially given the crowd. Nice open kitchen in back."
    Dined on 10/6/2013
  • "This place had a tendency to get very crowded and loud. The staff does a wonderful job managing the flow. The food is good - oysters are always a hit and the brunch is a solid choice"
    Dined on 9/29/2013

    Dined on 9/23/2013
  • "With an appealing menu and very good food, this restaurant provides an ambience that reminds you of being in Paris."
    Dined on 9/16/2013
  • "When we are in Rye for the weekend, we always go to Ruby's. The seafood is so fresh. We love the steamers when they are a special. The mussels are so good, too. We have tried practically everything on the menu and it never disappoints. The waiters are very friendly and efficient. We will keep coming back."

  • "Have been to Ruby's Oyster Bar many times.....ALWAYS great!!"

  • "this is my second time eating at Ruby's as I just relocated to Rye. The food and service are excellent! My first visit was for lunch with my nephews (8&10) Fantastic for kids and equally so for adults."
    Dined on 9/11/2013
  • "We are new Rye residents - Long Island transplants, just learning the "lay of the restaurant land". Ruby's was recommended by several of our "new acquaintances". It might well become "our go-to place". Tables are too close together for real ambiance, but the food was superb and the service was excellent. Our midweek 6 :30 PM reservation was honored upon arrival; we had eaten and were out the door in little over an hour. I think we beat the real dinner crowd - several people were arriving as we departed. But, we look forward to returning to sample other menu selections."

    Dined on 8/20/2013
  • "We love Ruby's...the food and service are always outstanding. This has become, hands-down, one of our favorite restaurants!!!"

    Dined on 8/16/2013
  • "Everything was very good except it was too loud. You had to speak very loudly to the person next to you!"
    Dined on 8/10/2013
  • "This is our go to restaurant in Rye. It never disappoints. The special appetizer were steamers so we never pass those up. They're very good. Then I had the mussels with french fries. The wine sauce in the mussels were so delicious. My husband had the salmon and that was also very good. We will keep on going back!"
    Dined on 8/3/2013
  • "This is a neighborhood gem on the main street in Rye. The food is consistently excellent. The service is attentive and on target. We go here often and have never had a bad meal."
    Dined on 7/20/2013
  • "Seated next to the wait staff area is a no-no. Staff kept bumping into me all night. Most times they didn't even acknowledge it. They were all over me. Don't sit there. The noise, the commotion and the flying broken glass that hit my leg from a dropped plate made this a less then optimal dinner."
    Dined on 7/21/2013
  • "I think the restaurant is overrated. while the aps were very good the entrée were just average. Both of us in my party ordered Gin and Tonic (Bombay and Tanqueray) and they appeared to be watered down."
