    Me & my friend did a galentines dinner here and the vibes were immaculate! We were given a rose upon arrival which put a smile on my face immediately. Our waitress was very attentive and all of our food and drinks came out in a timely fashion. The eggplant dip, sausage pasta & spicy vodka pasta were incredible! The yuzu margaritas were addicting! (tajin rim yktv) We work nearby so i’ll definitely be coming back :) Thank you Little Ruby’s!!!

    Always on the noisy side at dinner! Very cute and casual. Fries and brussel sprouts are amazing, but I would pass on the steak frites. Vodka pasta is what keeps me coming back

    I had an amazing experience at Ruby's Cafe in West Village, NYC! The customer service was absolutely top-notch—10/10. The food was equally incredible, each dish perfectly prepared. The vibe of the place was fantastic, making it such a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal. I even asked for a small favor, and they came through without hesitation. On top of all that, the prices are incredibly affordable for such high-quality food. Highly recommend this gem—definitely a must-visit!

    The food came out quick and hot, it was so delicious and I enjoyed every minute of it. The place is a little narrow but honestly such great vibes, they played really good music. Our server was really nice and was attentive. The eggplant dip is a must, the bread and vegetables it comes was soo delicious and the calamari is out of this world. I also ordered the spicy vodka pasta and truffle fries, TRUFFLE FRIES ARE A MUST. I ordered the Red Ruby cocktail with vodka and it was perfectly balanced. Overall I was really happy with my meal and I’m definitely going back to try their burger and for another order of truffle fries. Definitely worth the money!
