Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse - Lexington

Thank you, Kilton and the entire JR staff for making our birthday celebration an extra wonderful time. From the valet in to valet out, we were greeted with kindness and warm hospitality.

My favorite steakhouse in Lexington. The filet, rare, is to die for.

Reservation for 2 on a Sunday evening. High end feel with live piano in the bar area and a line of expensive cars at valet. We were sat at a four top in the main dining area. Not ideal as we were now 1 of 6 tables in a space better suited to 4 tables. We were definitely getting our elbows jostled by passers-by. Art Deco design is great, but at odds with the motown/funk music. Servers very attentive and well trained. Friendly, if somewhat sycophantic. Cocktails were delicious. We had two steaks, the lobster gnocchi and some horseradish + mushroom/onions on the side. Steaks were perfectly medium rare. The lobster gnocchi was fine (and expensive), if a little underdone. Servers made sure we never ran out of water and checked in diligently. Espresso, sambuca and butter pie for dessert. All good. Some easy adjustments would make this a 5 star review. If/when we ever return, I would request a half-round booth and skip the gnocchi.

The absolute best service at always. Every meal here seems better than the last. It truly is an experience!

Highly recommend!!! Steak melts in your mouth and every side that we ordered had the most delicious seasonings. Our drinks were so crisp and refreshing. Truly a wonderful experience!

Love this place and staff! 👍

We were celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary! I am so glad we decided to dine here! They had a special insert in our menu that said,”Happy 30th Anniversary!” On the menu itself! What a special touch and a great keepsake for us! I had the Steak and Lobster and my husband had the New York Strip. We shared a Crab Cake and salad. Both the food and service were phenomenal!

Great place. Food was delicious!! The Mac and cheese is to die for!! Little confusion over the wine we wanted. We thought we were getting a $90 check came and it was $192 but it was still good. Overload of options and information on ordering.

My wife & I sat at the bar about 630pm and young woman bartender was fantastic to talk to and very attentive to my food allergy issues. Great meal as always.

First the good news. Ambiance, service, sides, salad, and dessert all perfect.
Now the bad news. The Lobster Burrow was not good at all. Filet was tough, chewy, and way too salty. Lobster tail was lukewarm and rubbery, and whoever heard of serving lobster without any warm drawn butter ????
All in all, a disappointing experience despite the ‘good news’.

We ordered the steak Diane and the sauce and the mushrooms that is over The steak was so tasty and the steak would literally just fall apart when your fork touched it.
