★★★★★ 5.0 Stephen Daniels · Feb 2026

Had an excellent breakfast here and the prices were very good. My kids said it was the best scrambled eggs they have ever had. Love the homemade berry jam for the toast. Very friendly service. The only thing I did not like is that something on their menu that they were cooking had a pretty distinct smell that I did not care for so I was happy to get some fresh air when we left, but I'm sure not everyone will feel the same way. I will definitely be going back the next time I'm in the area looking for a good affordable breakfast.

This was our first visit to Ruth’s, and we were greeted warmly right away; every staff member we encountered was very friendly. Lacey served us and did a fantastic job! I really enjoyed my breakfast: eggs with bacon, an English muffin (the homemade jam was lovely), and a potato pancake. I do wish applesauce had been an option, but the sour cream was a nice touch. I also ordered a pot of Earl Grey tea, which was full, flavorful, and a great pairing with breakfast. My husband had the biscuits and gravy. Unfortunately, it didn’t quite meet his expectations. The gravy didn’t seem to have sausage and had a noticeably flour-forward taste. We’re from the South, so we’re used to a different style of gravy, but we understand it’s made differently in the North. Overall, despite that one dish not bei

Excellent service and the food was delicious. I got the Florentine Eggs Benedict, it looked and tasted amazing. If you love tomatoes and spinach, this is your pick no doubt. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly. The hollandaise was creamy and tasty. Would definitely order it again when we come back. Our server was very attentive and polite. We asked him to photograph us at the table and he happily agreed. We were so glad we chose Ruth’s cafe on whim for Mother’s Day.

I will start by saying I have NEVER had a bad experience at Ruth's until today. We love it so much we drive 20 minutes just to get there. I have never been so disappointed in Ruth's Cafe than I am today. It started off with the employee say OH I think I just gave your order to a lady that just left. He proceeds to go out to the parking lot to find her so fast I didn't have time to say don't bother. I would not have taken it if he found the lady leaving I don't know what she did when she got in her car with the food. That is probably a common mistake so we understood. We did not door dash we placed our own order to pick up because of how long our commute is. We don't mind the drive 20 minutes to Ruth's because it USED to be that good. We told the man we have plans and if the meal cannot

Great food and service (Allie K was our server) and fun atmosphere. I will return, especially for the caramel apple mimosa and country fried steak scramble.
