    We have always been fans of the Jeff Ruby restaurants. However, on our recent visit, my husband and I both asked for our steaks to be medium rare. They were medium at best and a bit on the dry side. There are many other steak restaurants in town that offer quality steaks at lower prices. Hopefully this was an off night and a one time thing, but we will be visiting other steak houses before going back here.

    Service and food were great. We ordered the butter pie to go, the pie was good, but the slice was extremely small, compared to all the other desserts. We will definitely go back, but we won’t order the butter pie.

    We went to Carlo and Johnny’s for our anniversary and were not disappointed at all! The food was delicious and the service was outstanding! Robby and Sam were a great serving team and took good care of us! We will definitely be back!

    We have never been disappointed by any of the Jeff Ruby properties. Carlo and Johnny is broken up into a lot of medium sized rooms. The live music in the bar is great but if you are looking for a slightly more intimate dining experience, request to be seated in one of the rooms. Try the Ruby Roll. You would think tempura Lobster and filet don’t belong on a sushi roll but you will be pleasantly surprised on the execution.

    Excellent service by Maryn, Sam, and Hannah. Two members of our party have mobility issues and Robbie offered to assist getting through seating area and he was not our server. Robbie really impressed me with that offer. My flounder was ok...the other 3 meals were excellent.
