I can not say enough about Ruth’s. Today being Father’s Day, they went above and beyond to help me with an amazing breakfast for my husband for Father’s Day. Thank you so very much!

Honestly this place is one of my favorites to go and eat at in the morning, it reminds me of an old ma and pop restaurant that I had back in my hometown. The food is always amazing and cheap, the staff is extremely friendly and the atmosphere is extremely calming in the mornings. I highly recommend coming here.

Went there Friday night around 7pm. Sat in a booth for 10-15 minutes and no one ever greeted us. We then helped ourself to a salad and were nearly finished eating the salad before the young man serving tables asked us if we needed drinks. The older lady that was serving tables avoided us like the plaque. She even sat with customers in the booth beside us but never acknowledged that we had not been greeted or served. Thanks to her behavior we will not return to what was one of our favorites.

Tonight 6/6/25 around 7:10 We sat there for 20 mins with servers walking past us not asking if we had been taken care of. One of the waitresses even looked in our direction and didn’t even acknowledge us and then she proceeds to sit down in a booth behind us talking to another customer and still doesn’t acknowledge us. We frequent this restaurant and haven’t had issues until tonight but tonight will be our last due to the lack of service

Local Family Diner. Clean. We both had the Farmers Omelet. It was appetizing and tasty. The food came out quickly. Nice and friendly waitresses and a hometown atmosphere. I wish we had one like this in my town.

Omg I can’t say this enough but this food was amazing. I see why they have good reviews! I got fired chicken with spaghetti and fried okra it was amazing! I also got fried green tomatoes and jalapeño poppers. They were so good. I did DoorDash with them and my food was still hot and fresh. I will be eating there again. Thank yall so much!

Decided to stop for a late breakfast and found the Diner to be very clean, which unfortunately is my first priority. Waitstaff were great and fairly attentive. Falls apart at that point honestly, as the food preparation was lacking. I had the chicken fried steak w/eggs, hashbrowns toast and grits.
Eggs undercooked as were the potatoes. Steak Patti was just wrong. Anyway I will definitely be back (as I know that we all have a bad day) and give the business a chance for the remaining 2 stars. We love our local businesses.

The Club Sandwich, Patty Melt, Fries, and Salad Bar are all really good. Staff was friendly and did and good job and she has done a good job updating the inside of the building.

I was ignored at the counter by three employees who took other customers and walked away from me. I've never been here before that, I don't know what the problem was. Will not return
