I'm so happy to find Ruby Q by chance on Goole Map. We ordered 3 way combo, spare ribs, brisket, and chicken. All of them are delicious! I also like their potato salad. I want to try seafood gumbo too. Since I lile dry BBQ too, I'll ask them to set the sauce on the side. Thanks, Ruby Q! :)

Got here late on Mother’s Day yesterday & was greeted warmly by a gentleman who told us they had limited offerings remaining but that he would make up what they had: Ribs, Potato Salad & Baked Beans. I am Texan okay? We do not play with BBQ in Texas. The ribs are hands down the best BBQ ribs I’ve had outside of Texas. I didn’t even think it was possible to compete with Texan BBQ in California! Well. This spot makes dreams come true apparently! I now refuse to get BBQ elsewhere. A true celebration of motherhood: sitting in bed gnashing on the heavenly Ruby Q ribs & moaning in glee all the way through.

The brisket and ribs were tender and juice, but I was looking for a charcoal taste, but the smoke out of the smoker was still good. The beans were good as well, but this place doesn't seem to be open anymore at least not the last two times I have been there. A little pricey, but I was willing to try them again

Delicious vegan quesadilla! They ran out of sweet potatoes so got veggies instead. Really good and filling.

Loved it! Our first time here, had the ribs, sauce on the side, two brisket tacos and the chicken nachos! All of it FIRE!! Only complaint is there was BARELY any chicken on the nachos and what was there was super small chunks. I was expecting shredded or something larger but still tastes great with the beans as the flavor star!

Makes my mouth water ? I had the link dinner, potato salad & beans. Also ordered a side of brisket. I will try everything on this menu!

I got the ribs and brisket. The ribs were tender and brisket had a good chew. 5 stars. meat itself had a nice smoky flavor. Both BBQ sauces were very good. The side dishes are the best BBQ restaurantI've ever had. The bake bean and potato salad must try. I will definitely be back to try other meats and side dishes!

By Far the Best BBQ Brisket and Baked Beans I've ever had! So juicy and tender with great smoky flavor! Super friendly service as well and nice open air patio to enjoy my meal. Just visiting but I'll be a new regular every time I'm in town! Thanks again Ruben! The Best! BBQ Smoked Brisket

Amazing ribs. Hands down the best I've had in the bay. Shoutout to the rad guy behind the counter who gave me back the $40 I overpaid by because the aloha club is next door and their mojitos are too delicious (and strong)!

Smokey BBQ meets Mexican, and it works really well. We tried the brisket tacos and the chicken tacos. Both were smokey, juicy, tender, and flavorful. We did a side of beans, and they were tender, sweet, and had a little spicy finish. Reasonable prices, with friendly service, and great outdoor seating in the back. I will definitely be back!

I've been here a few times and this place is soooo good!! We usually get the pork ribs and smoked brisket quesadilla. The quesadilla has to be the best thing on the menu I love it, the sauce the soft brisket and all the toppings. If you haven't tried this place your missing out. Parking is kinda rough but that's the only downfall.
