Ruben's Restaurant

Well, I really don't know where to start. I retired in March of 2023. My wife and I were looking for a place that live that didn't have all the people, traffic, road rage and crime in general. We ended up in Alton Virginia between South Boston virginia. About a month into being here we discovered Ruben's. We love it. My wife and I like sitting at the counter watching them fill the orders. It's an amazing process. Everyone who works there pitches in and the place runs like a clock. Oh but wait. I never mentioned that the food is awesome. Get the cheeseburger and fries smothered in gravy. It'll make you slap your Grandma. Lol

Loved this little breakfast & lunch spot while traveling for work. All the servers were very nice and the food was good. The atmosphere is very “old school” in a good way. Almost like a well preserved moment in time. Nice meal for your dollar and nothing was outrageously overpriced.

Wha, wha, What!!!! Ruben hit the nail on the head with the hots I ordered (1. A slaw dog with mustard. 2. Hot dog with onions and mayo). Man....the diet mountain dew fountain drink had a crisp taste that was freshing... I be back soon. I can't wait to try other items on the menu.

Finding good breakfast can be wearisome for the traveler. Ruben’s fits the bill. Great food (especially the sausage gravy) at an affordable price with easy access and a happy waitstaff. Definitely a must when in Danville, VA.

Been coming to this place since I was a little girl. Always have to stop by when I come back home to visit. Love it for the cheeseburger special as well as the nostalgia!
