Ruby Tuesday's
« on: March 08, 2007, 06:50:27 PM »
My husband ate there last year for our anniversary. I order the beef tips, and he ordered their largest steak. Our food arrived, and my husbands steak was well done (he ordered it medium).
The waitress took his steak back. So he watched me eat. By the time his new steak came, I had already finished my meal, so I watched him eat. Not exactly our idea of Romanticism.
They food was tasty though.

I can't seem to get good service here. I never complain about the food but the service is HORRIBLE! I once ordered a mixed drink. By the time I received it the ice was melted and it was watered down. I haven't ordered one there since. My husband ordered a beer last time we were there. By the time he got it the beer was hot. I don't mean room temp, I mean HOT. He sent it back for a new one. They tried charging us for BOTH! I rarely see my server. I usually have to flag down another server to get a refill. I received good service there twice. The first time was right after they opened. The other time was about two years ago. Since then.. nothing but poor service.

At least the hosts are friendly..

Why does it take 25 min to get me my first drink drink when the restaurant is nearly empty?  THEN why does it take ANOTHER 25 min to get a simple order of chicken strips with fries?  Again... when the restaurant is nearly empty...

THEN, get this... the strips are over-cooked and hard enough to hurt my teeth... BUT... they're cold.  SO, not only are they over-cooked, but they sat around back there long enough to get cold.

Screw this place.  I'm not going back to this chain in St. Robert ever again...

Strike three.

How can so much change in the course of a year at this place?

 My wife and I went there last night. The food was good and the service was ok. The menu is a lot smaller than before. I never had a bad experience there,but the latest visit just wasn't as good as before.

Ruby Tuesdays has changed their decor.  Took down all the scrapbook looking stuff and they got rid of the tiffany lights, still the same great salad bar.

I made a mistake and want back to Ruby Tuesday's this past week.

Same crap service that I mentioned above... except this time it took twice as long and we had to sit through staff cleaning and moving tables around all the while bitching about each other and having to be at work.

Nice.  Just what I wanted to sit through... a bunch of lazy employees cussing using the f word to describe their day...

Can someone just fire the staff in this place and replace them with a new one?  I used to LOVE this place... now I hate it. 

The only reason I went back was because it is my female friends favorite place to eat... or was rather.

They make a lot of money off of the out of town folks coming in for graduations on post.  They figure Ruby Tuesday's would be a good choice.  Locals have learned their lesson.

I personally will pay good money for good food, and have always had fantastic food & service there :) I can't stand Ryan's yuck, and I am not a huge fan of fast food, so we don't have a ton of choices around here, yet to try Miller's, do love Stefano's tho :D

Went there tonight with my husband and some out of town friends , it was horriable ! First off there menu is messed up , it says that they have yuengling beer(its from PA) on draft and when my husband asked for it they said they didn't have it and had no idea why it was on the menu ? And then we order our food,and i ordered dessert(i had already ate) and by the time she brought my food to me the ice cream was melted and the chocolate in the middle was cold ! and not to mention it took her a good 15 min, to fetch my bloody mary and my friends daquari, and once i got my drink it tasted like they hadnt washed out the glass and my bloody mary which is suppose to be spicy was sweet ? so i asked her to change it and it took her about 30 min to do that. Then they messed up my friends order and when she asked them to fix they never came back and fixed it, it was bad, we will never go back again we had the most horrible experience there tonight the waitress got a 3 $$ tip on a 70 $$ order !?!?!

I worked there for a year and have never had a complaint. I do agree there is alot of drama and alot of the staff complain about each other. It is quite annoying and I was an employee. Since I left I have not gone back and I don't plan on returning. I heard from a few friends that it has totally went down hill.

We had dinner there tonight and it was great as always. We haven't had any problems there yet and I sure hope it stays that way. Salad bar is great, the chicken pot pie was, too. I am not really into fast food and since we don't really have much choice in town, I would rather pay more and have good food. Oh and as a nice extra (maybe I will get a Karma point for this? hint hint) when we were munching on our salads a gentleman in a suit walked by our table, put his hand on my hubby's shoulder and thanked him for serving (hubby was in uniform) and gave us a $25 gift card for Ruby Tuesdays, how nice is that?

Wife and son took me there for my birthday.  We waited 20 minutes for seating, and when they took us back (far left wall after you go in) we saw there was an entire section unoccupied - about 5-7 booths on the wall.  Assumed they were reserved, but this was apparently not the case - nobody showed up in the hour we were there...
 
The menu was disappointing.  Far too many of the old items gone.  I settled for a burger, which I could have got anywhere - I had been looking forward to the sirloin tips.  25-30 minutes later the food showed up - slow, but not excessivley - gave us some nice time to chat,,,
 
The waitress was snotty... point blank.  My wife ordered a plate with shrimp - when the plates were dropped off (server drive by), the wife had to call after her - "excuse me, do you have any cocktail sauce".  The waitress didn't slow or turn as she said "no"  (not no ma'am, not no, sorry...just no).
 
I had requested the burger well done...1st bite reveals nice, bloody red meat.  By the time the waitress came back the family had had their plates for 10 minutes.  Had I sent the burger back it would have take another 10-15 minutes, and the family would have had the pleasure of sitting watching me eat, as they would have been done.  So I worked my way around the edges of the 'buffalo' burger and ate my fries...
The waitress never once stopped by to ask if we wanted any refills - so I caught her as she did another drive by and requested them.  It was clear we keeping her from the crowd in the corner that she was enjoying chatting so much with.  The place was not that busy - after we were seated several tables/booths cleared out and were not refilled with people.  Fact of the matter is she had some socializing to do, and she was put off by my wife's request and my displeasure at having been served an uncooked burger, so she disrespected us as customers.
 
I returned the favor when it was time to tip, by leaving my tip on a napkin - "
 
TIP - treat your customers better, and take the time to make them feel welcome".
 
We won't be going back.
