My family went o New York for one night and we wanted the best Asian food in the city. We left there with 170$ less than what we came in with and empty stomachs. It was the Worst food I have ever put in my mouth. The music was loud rock music that ruined the atmosphere. Plus the menu only had american food and almost no Asian. We ordered the only Asian food on the menu (fried rice, pad tia, Chicken, dumplings and pan fried noodles) and it was a disaster for how easy it is to make that food(the most traditional asian food.) It was without a dout the worst expensive food I have ever put in my mouth. After we left we had to go but a whole new dinner because not one person in our family of four ate anything. So please dont waste your money on the worst food in the city!

we live in brooklyn and rarely venture out to times square. ruby foo's reminded me why. the food tasted like lean cuisine. the prices are outrageous. we should have stayed home and ordered good chinese food from the place on our block for $20 rather than spending $80 at ruby's. save your money.

Wonderful service, ok food
I went here with a group of 7. The place is excellent for large groups; you are seated at a round table. It is easy to find with its revolving restaurant sign, Vegas Style. Lettuce wraps were excellent, but the tuna rolls had an unpleasant twang with cilantro. The main dishes were either bland (Stir fry chicken) or so spicy (Buddha's Vegetable Feast, Pan-Fried Noodles), a few of us kept coughing! The pad thai was disappointing. The service by the staff was very courteous and helpful. If the food matched their service, they would be a 4-5 star restaurant.

Ruby Foo's Fan
Yes the restaurant is a little noisy, but the quality and taste of the food was so wonderful, I didn't mind. My husband and I ate there in January of 2010 and stopped in to have some appetizers as we were not that hungry. Not expecting the food to be that good, we were wonderfully suprised when our order of 4 kinds of dumplings with excellent dipping sauces was delivered. We also enjoyed the shrimp spring rolls and fried rice. Later that evening, we were both craving another round and kept talking over and over about how great the food was. We were disappointed that time constraints kept us from coming back to dine while we were there. I will be coming back to Manhattan in December and Ruby Foo's is the first place we will be going! I highly recommend this place!

Will never order from Ruby Foo again
Let me just get to the point. The order took over an hour to arrive, steak was cold and the sushi rolls were sloppy.

Always a winner
we have yet to be disapointed. Food is excellent as always as is the service and atmosphere. Too many good things to chose, but we will keep trying. Only thing is going to the restroom is thru a service area not to good.

Perfect for Large parties and Pre-theatre!
As a Manhattanite, I had prepared myself for a tourist trap meal in Times Square. Our experience was anything but that. A fantastic choice for great service, food, and ambience in Times Square. Our party of 6 was sat promptly at our reservation time. The decor was gorgeous and our out of town guests were highly impressed with the glamour of the space. We had one guest who is a particularly picky eater, and our waitress accomidated her requests graciously. This is an excellent choice for Pre-Theatre and large parties. As for the other reviewers who complained about the prices... Guess what... New York is expensive. I would suggest that if you want something cheap, go to McDonalds. This is well worth the price. Highly recommended
