for the price, it's perfect. i encourage you to order way too much, and definitely get the duck and roast pork.

look, it's not the "worlds best duck" or whatever. but it's SOLID. to me, a solid, consistent place deserves 5 stars. the folks there are nice too. helps if you speak mando or Canto but the menu has English translations. and cash only!!

Unfriendly service and mid environment. The store closed so early. 8 pm is when people just get off work! And your kitchen start cleaning up with all the soap and stuff at 7:20? And also it’s cash only. Don’t forget.

Cash only! Pork belly as of Feburary 17, 2025 is $21.99 a pound worth it. I know it's more expensive than other places but this place has really mastered there craft of making roasted pork belly. I always stop by here if I'm in the area. I'm a large hispanic male that's eaten chicharron all my life and this place really impresses.

The service in this store is terrible. I queued up here to buy roasted pork belly in the evening and have been waiting for 20 minutes. The pork belly hanging on the top was almost sold out. I looked at it and thought I would probably buy the last one. Come here now. There was a person who didn't queue up and I casually asked the people in the store to cut the last piece for him. When I came to me, the people inside said that they would have to wait for another 20 minutes after they were sold out. The woman who counted the money had a very bad attitude and didn't realize that they were at fault. Instead, when talking to me The tone is very bad. This kind of store has no trading rules at all. It’s too bad.

Eggplant with garlic sauce so so. Soup no good. The fish-flavored eggplant tastes like the soup is made from seasoning packets. There is Laohuo soup, but the taste is too bland and not authentic.

Government should look into this joint. They only take cash. But they tax you like crazy as well. Their duck tasted very bad, like a week old

The food is very good here especially the BBQ pork the skin is very crispy and crunchy not chewy. Other dishes are good and the price is very reasonable. The portion are big as well.

This is the best roast pork I have ever eaten in LA. The skin is crispy and the meat is tender. Although the dining environment is a bit rough, it is still very clean. The owners speak Cantonese and their English is very average, so please ask for communication. Be more patient.

Today I want to eat roasted pork rice. I found this restaurant on the map and charged me 17.5 for a double meal. This price is only 2.5 different from the buffet I had yesterday. But the difference is obvious at a glance and I can’t bear to order more meat. The vegetables are also very stale and never fresh. Will go

Came by for the first time ever in 04/22/2024 during the morning hours while vacationing in CA. Ordered some roasted pork to go and it was amazing! I will definitely be coming back again if I am in the area.

The two things you need to know.

#1 Crispy Roast Pork
#2 Cash Only

Maybe someday I'll learn something else, but really that's all I or you really need to know about Ruby BBQ. Anything else is just bonus.

Even if the interior needs a lot of work, the food doesn't. The roast pork is divine! So crispy on the outside and juicy and tasty on the inside. Dip it into the hoisen sauce, and it's perfect. I couldn't try the char sui because they ran out the day I went (late). I will try it next time with the roast duck. It's $21.99/lb for the roast pig. It's well worth it. I also got the eggplant shezwan style, dry string beans, salt & pepper rock cod fish fleet, and clams with black bean sauce. All of it was superb, not too salty, as a lot of Chinese food can be. This is my new go-to Chinese BBQ place from now on!
