Ruffino's on the River is a -Steak-Seafood-Italian restaurant and an experience in Food and Atmosphere like no others. Located in Lafayette, La. From the time you walk in and see the wood burning stove aflame, to the beautiful smiles on every Ruffino's team member's faces, you will have goose bumps on the back of your neck for the dining journey that awaits you. The scenes of the gorgeous Vermilion River where our outdoor patio looks over is breath taking. From our wonderful signature Crabmeat Cheesecake appetizer to our mind blowing Cedar Plank baked Redfish or our mouth watering Prime cut Steaks, the menu is diversive for everyone. The relaxed but swinging music along with perfect lighting and energy make this this ultimate restaurant in Louisiana. I where Louisiana Comes to Celebrate!

This is the second time we ate at Ruffino's for our anniversary. It never disappoints in regards to wine selection and food options. The service is extraordinary and provides customers with a comfortable relaxing environment. Highly recommended for special occasions and date nights.

My experience at Ruffino's was made special by the following people. Seth. Seth blew my mind. He was extremely professional, courteous and impressively socially intelligent. I didn't even have to ask him to bus the new table. And his attention to detail was exquisite. If I owned a restaurant he would be in a management position. Olivia. Olivia is the reason I will be taking all my friends to Rufino's. I have a lot of friends. She saw me admiring some cotton candy, that the table next to me didn't want. She brought it out to me in a little Ziplock and told me the table next to me didn't want it. It blew my mind. Raffiel. What can I say about Raffiel? Well, I had three of my girlfriends with me and he treated them as if they were queens in my presence. And outside of my presence he treated them exactly the same. He is a true gentleman, as labeled by women. And then when I left I spent a few minutes in the lobby, reading about the owner who passed away. And after that, I understood why this restaurant is so special. If he were alive I would tell him in person. This is an amazing little jewel with which he has gifted Lafayette. Anthony

From the service to the incredible food, I give Ruffino’s 5 stars!!!With so many restaurants experiencing staff shortages, it’s wonderful to have a full staff that’s energetic, happy, and knowledgeable. We had two amazing servers, one for food and one for beverages, along with someone to clean off the table waiting nearby. Thank you for an incredible experience and we’ll be back soon :)

First class service from start to finish. Staff was exceptional, our waiter really knew the menu and suggested the perfect selections for us. Food was absolutely fantastic. I can see why the crabmeat cheesecake is award winning. Combine that with ambiance in the solarium and honestly I would put it as the top dining experience I have had in Lafayette.

One of our best experiences at Ruffino's to date. The Pavilion area with gorgeous views of the river in the late afternoon light was cool in many ways. Our anniversary experience lacked for nothing. Two of the day specials were , pan seared grouper and shrimp over orzo. For an appetizer the smoked salmon, with pistachio and procuitto crostini was one I hope they also make more of a permanent part of the seasonal menu. Pre dinner er drinks were innovative without being "too innovative". Service was jus the right amount of helpfulness without being interruptive. Definitely will be going back to Ruffino's!

Immediatley addressed by wait staff (Cameron) for beverage orders. Bread and oil delivered soon after. Our waitress (Skye), greeted us with a smile and asked if we would like to hear about special items not on the menu that night. Asked about an apppetizer and gave us several minutes to decide on entrees. Drinks delivered and appetizer of fried rabbit fingers delivere (hot, delicious and tender). Sky came back to see how we were doing and took our entree orders after answering questions about the menu. Food brought to table for all 3 of us at the same time with 3 dif-ferent people delivering each dish. Cameron came back by and checked for new drink orders. Skye checked for dessert orders when we finished eating. My birthday, and a special dessert with Happy Birthday written on plate with sauce. This is truly the way dinner should be!!!!

From start to finish it was absolutely incredible. We actually were notified earlier than our reservation time that we could get our table so we decided to accept and begin our dining experience. The hostesses were very friendly and inviting. Our front and back server were both very warm and knowledgeable. Very easy going vibes. We didn’t feel rushed. Our cocktails were delicious. I had the pear martini and my husband had a buffalo trace old fashion. Both were made to perfection. The food was mouth watering superb!!! I had the lasagna. The sauce is to die for and my husband had the special Pork chop which was also excellent. We finished our dinner with the Cheesecake and OMG it almost made me cry it was so good. It was our anniversary so they also brought out a complimentary brownie for us to celebrate. But, then we were surprised with Cotton Candy for a pallet cleanser at the very end of our meal. We will be back. We plan to make this our quarterly out of town date night spot!! Thank y’all so much!

This was the best dining experience I’ve ever had. The service was great, the food was excellent and they really went above and beyond to make it a special day once we mentioned it was my husbands grad school graduation dinner. I had the ribeye with masked potatoes and a Cesar salad and it was scrumptious. The complimentary bread was hot and fresh with Italian herbs. Everything we all ordered was exceptionally delicious. They brought us a complimentary dessert with the word congratulations on the plate. It www amazing. And the cotton candy! So good!! The manager packed up some extras for my kids when I mentioned them. The server Jake was very personable and I forgot the name of the nice server who did our drinks but he was great as well. So so good!!! Worthy every penny. Plus it’s such a beautiful location
