The Ruby Cantonese in Dudley

We get takeout from here but also go for family meals and it's always top quality

Food was stunning and service with a smile. We did early dining menu and would highly recommend. Extra duck course was well worth it.

I hope you like walking because there’s no parking! Inside is very pretty but very small and cold, it was my bday and wanted to go to a BUFFET but it was a set menu that you had to choose! That’s not what a buffet is, a buffet is a restaurant that customers can go and pick which food they want at any time and as many food as they want. The food was delicious I must give them credit for that one thing, but they let themselves down with the portions! Very misleading menu, in the pictures the food may look big but I assure you we left hungry. OVER PRICED People rushing past our table with flaming sizzling hot dishes inches away from our faces whilst they go service other customers was quite unpleasant and unsettling. Me and the person I came with to enjoy this experience did not enjoy this experience to much unfortunately we really wished we have kept our money to spend at a Chinese/ Thai takeaway because at least we would be getting more for our money and feel comfortable.

Had a rake away crab claw was lovely no salad sauce though ordered king prawn and scallop with asparagus absolutely delicious sauce very disappointed with content 4 king prawns 3 small scallops rest just vegetables will order something different on menu next time as flavours are definitely there Fir c a 9 pound main context disappointing as I said flavour sublime though

Food is lovely, but atmosphere is very rushed, staff are very helpful.

Dined here with my family on a Sunday evening. Service is excellent and the food is great. Always choose from the early diner menu which has a wide variety of dishes. Staff are always friendly. Highly recommend.

I have been going to this restaurant for years, it's wonderful! The food is always excellent ( even as take away) the staff are always very good and attentive. Very clean place too. THE ONLY downside to it is the location and the lack of a car park.

Fabulous. Really exceptional today. Service superb loads of lovely food. Great value. Top notch. Will be back soon. Waitresses were very kind with our grandkids

Excellent Cantonese restaurant situated in Amblecote Stourbridge. They use fresh veg in their food. The food waiting times are very minimal too. They are on the ball here. Thanks

Awful establishment which do not encourage their customers to be respectful to their neighbours. Awful parking and late night noise. Honestly unpleasant. Over priced and slow too... Spend your money elsewhere....

Awful establishment which doesn't encourage their customers to treat any of their neighbours respectfully. Late night noise and bad parking, frequently leaving people's drive blocked. Hateful place.

Consistently excellent service and food.

Regularly visit the Ruby and have never had a bad meal here. The food is always exceptional and the service matches. Nothing is too much trouble, service is friendly and efficient. Always usually visit on a Saturday so it is always busy but the food is always worth waiting for. I would go as far as saying it’s the best Chinese I’ve been to.

Excellent food and staff, great gluten free range

Very bad service tonight, rush rush rush, so uncomfortable being rushed to order, rushed into making a decision on food, couldn’t wait to clear table , so ignorant and pushy, with the staff on duty tonight it will be a long time before we return

Wow! Delicious! That’s all I can say! Love the concept, refreshing change

Food is top. Service is very Rushi lala

We have visited this place regularly and always have the best food with great service. Angel has been our waitress pretty much every time we have been and she is an absolute star. She works tirelessly and goes the extra mile to provide us with a wonderful dining experience, even remembering what we had to eat and drink at previous visits. They cater for coeliacs, providing a separate gluten free menu. The staff (especially Angel) are knowledgable of the menu and the ingredients used, and are aware of the issues with cross contamination. Have never been ill following a meal here. The food is delicious. It’s a privilege to have this place locally and be able to eat Chinese food after 12 years of being coeliac. Thank you Ruby Cantonese 5*****

We having been going for many years and never had a bad meal. The food is amazing and always tastes fresh.

Excelled good and staff always have a nice time here and my family have been going for nearly 20 years 😁

We have been to the Ruby a couple of times, since moving to the area. Normally set menu deals are a bit pants, but here is the exception - the choice of dishes is really varied and the quality of the food is excellent - not to mention the value. The service however is another level - really fantastic. I have quite a bad nut allergy, but the hostess always does her absolute utmost to make sure I dont have any issues. The rest of the staff also really polite and attentive. This place deserves more than the 5 stars available.

Parking was a little awkward, no car park, and limited on street parking, but the restaurant is well worth it. The restaurant was rammed, on Saturday night, but the staff were very friendly and attentive, we went for one of the set menus, but they let us swap a couple of the dishes. The food was delicious and lots of it,definitely recommend and return.

Very busy Saturday night, but the staff were friendly and helpful, we went for one of the set menu, but were able to swap some meals. Parking was a little awkward, no car park, but the food was amazing.

Hands down the best Chinese food I’ve eaten.

Very helpful, quick service and the meal was lovely

Had a lovely meal for Dad’s birthday

Lovely meal, good atmosphere for a Monday night. Recommend a visit

Had an amazing time, great food, definitely going back as soon as possible. Food came out quickly and hot.

Good value tasty Chinese. Best one we've found for Chinese near Stourbridge.

Value for money, great food and Amazing waiters. SAY NO MORE

Food was absolutely fantastic piping hot of great quality & potion size Staff are v friendly & accommodating Excellent service would highly recommend

Always enjoy my time at the Ruby. Good service, lovely food and all at decent fair prices

Absolute banger …!! Never been before and went as part of a large party Food was excellent and I really had no expectations as the dinner was about the same as a fast food takeaway So I give it 5 stars based on the value to cost ration - it’s not Michelin, but it is very good

Best food and service for miles.

I’ve been going to the Ruby for 25 years, either they have changed the chef or food standards have dropped. Worst Chinese meal I’ve ever experienced at what was once my go to Chinese restaurant. So disappointing

Very friendly staff and great service and food.

Went on Wednesday evening, busy so glad we booked table at 7.30 had the evening special so for table of 4 we ordered 5 starters, and 5 mains to share. Food was beautiful, service was very good and friendly . At £17.95 per head great value for money. Thoroughly recommend a visit 👌

Absolutely amazing as always. Jill yuen an dish I always have. Set menu is great value. Staff are lovely, place is clean and tidy. Definitely go here

Went last night with family. Their early bird offer is £17.95 pp. The food was varied and hot and looked and tasted wonderful. Staff were lovely too. Only downside is parking! They have no car park, so you have to park on busy road and walk or park over from the busy road. Was packed to the beams on a Thursday evening which shows how popular it is, so you must book. Look forward to going back!

Amazing food with a pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff and a great variety of choices

Excellent selection of food served swiftly by friendly staff

Had the set menu £25pp for 4, food was lovely plenty of it, staff were nice.

First time visiting, will definitely be back soon. The food was very well presented and tasted as good as it looked. All staff were friendly and nothing seemed too much trouble.

We’ve been a few times over the last few weeks after a work colleague recommended it. For a staff meal & a family meal. Staff are very helpful & efficient. We enjoyed the early bird special it was very good value and lots of variety. The kitchen is open plan and looked very clean tidy & efficient. I love open plan kitchens when eating out. Highly recommend for a large or small table booking you will be well looked after

The resturant sorted my previous issue. So I have updated the review accordingly.

We went for a new years eve meal. Absolutely brilliant night and meal we had. Very accommodating for our allergies. Changed meal to suit us we all felt we a great meal. Staff absolutely brilliant. Very friendly and couldn't do anything else to make our night special. Thank you

Just been here for New Year’s Eve meal, very fast service, friendly staff and amazing food, thank you! Happy new year and see you again soon. Dean & Claire Stanford

Excellent, fast and attentive service. Food is always amazing, lots of variety and cooked quickly. I always go when it's 17.95 per person as you get a choice of 4-5 dishes between your group and it's fab value. I love it here and everyone I've ever taken does too! No parking so park in nearby side streets or get public transport.

Very very expensive for what you get £3 for a glass of soda water

Good food but it was cold in the restaurant must be trying to save on the heating bill!

Visited here many times but never again waited over half an hour for our table and then left as not sure when we would be seated after making a booking what’s the point in booking if you can’t keep to within a few minutes of the time, my daughter came back for one night from uni and you totally ruined our night we will never return or any of our family again, may not bother you as you have your fan base but your not all that to mess people about, my brother came a couple of days ago and warned me it was not so good and very rushed hi you’ve lost a few customers and good riddance

Best Chinese meal I have had in a long time. The food was very tasty and plentiful - the crispy duck in particular was excellent. The service was friendly and pleasant. Will definitely return. The restaurant was very busy and tables are placed quite close together so maybe wouldn't choose it for a romantic occasion but the food is definitely a major plus

As usual food was very nice however we all felt very rushed, literally as we sat down drinks order took then food ordered them within a couple of minutes starters were there and as soon as we had finished plates were cleared and main course was served and again cleared quickly. We had two cups of coffee just to make the night last longer. Meal was booked for 715 and I was back at home at 915 enjoying a cup of tea. It was uncomfortably rushed which was a shame because the food was nice as always

Nice food, average price, service was prompt, but so was the attitude of some of the staff, not for the better. The feeling of being urged and moving things out the way quickly was quite apparent from the start. Will go again, but if the same happens, it will be passed on to the management.

Good food and service in a nice location

Food was satisfactory, nothing special Service was great Not suitable for bookings over 4+ people The restaurant could do with a refurbishment

They squeeze to many ppl in at once.chair covers weren't ironed.we seemed to be rushed at our food

Great friendly and fast service.

We hadn't booked but managed to get the last table for two. Great service and good food at a reasonable price. The restaurant was full of friendly locals which was lovely.

We ordered a "take away", which was good. We have eaten here before, and it was pleasant.

Didn't start off too good when, a few days before, they rang me to chance the time of our meal from 6.45pm to 6.15pm. Very busy whe we arrived. Staff were a bit 'manic' due to being busy. However, the waitress who seated us and took our order was fantasic - friendly, making suggestions off the menu etc... Starter arrived in good time and were very good. Prawn crackers never arrived! No staff round to ask, so we did without. Main courses were all good. As soon as we finished, a different waitress sprang out of nowhere, whipped our table cloth off and was gone! Our original waitnress returned to take our dessert order. A few minutes later the other waitress returned saying she couldn't read the order of the other waitress, so could we order again! All very manic! Desserts and then coffee all arrived (with the desserts, straight out of the deep freeze and unable to eat straight away!) When it was time to pay we split our bill. Our friends paid (by card) first and then we did. Our card was declined! Waitress snatched card out of my hand and tapped the card reader! Very rude! By this stage there were babies crying (who brings a young baby to a restaurant!!!) and lots of people at the bar (probably waiting for tables) with some local wag thinking he was being funny (rather than a prat!) shouting to everyone who was eating "Come on my, time to go..." (as I assume he wanted to sit down for his meal!) Came out with a headache! Way too busy, no car parking and too expensive!

Excellent customer service as always. Food lovely a nice night out. It is expensive but is a great venue for special occasions.

As a group of 4 we were all very impressed by this, especially with the early diner special at £17 a person it's very good value for money, and food is good/very good quality

Excellent food, especially the offer before 8pm weekdays. Would definitely recommend. Parking very limited.

Very enjoyable time here Food was lovely and staff very attentive

Everything good service was a pleasure smiles all round

Way way overpriced, I wouldn't encourage them again. Food is fine but go to your local chippy (which is also overpriced).

Great food and service and well priced too. We were lucky to get in as we only rang 30 minutes before we arrived. Set meal was very nice

I visited here Friday 21st July in a party of seven. AMBIENCE: The restaurant is clean and welcoming with plenty of seating. The layout is particularly good with clever use of partitioning and each table has its own area/zone. This gives a slight feeling of privacy - impressive! We were at a circular table with a rotating centre top. On this was a menu awaiting each of us. MENU: This is a packed double sided affair, with an extensive array of genuine dishes and not many that you would find in a classic takeaway - this is a proper restaurant. Not seeing chow mein on the selection, my friend asked and later received his dish which he said was excellent. FOOD: Truly excellent comments from all seven of us. Portions were very generous to the point where we could probably have ordered less and shared a little? STAFF: Efficient, friendly and very helpful. PRICE: Remembering my comments on portion sizes, we had starters, mains and drinks. Roughly £25/head and no one was moaning at that because you get what you pay for - right? NOTE: We were three couples and a single. We received four separate itemised bills - saves all the bill problems - superb! VERDICT: Excellent restaurant and we'll all be going back.

Food absolutely outstanding! Every single time we come here the food is continuously amazing. The staff are fantastic. It was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the warm ambiance to the impeccable service. Every aspect of this restaurant exceeds my expectations. Thank you Ruby Cantonese🥰

Jay was fantastic, really nice made my family feel welcome, I really recommend the Ruby, thank Jay foryour excellent serve 😊😊

Food delicious. Staff very friendly

Booked by phone 2 weeks before reservation date. This was for a wedding anniversary meal. They had no record of our booking and were really not bothered in the slightest. Wasted our taxi fare. Shall not be going again!

Great food and good portions felt a little bit rushed but it was fathers day so very busy

great service, employees were very attentive and did their very best to make the experience a good one. we came here for a family members birthday and they had a great time. food is fast and was definitely the best Chinese food we have had in a while. recommend as it is also not over priced.

Took the family to Ruby Cantonese and it was the most amazing Chinese food ever - even the children , who are fussy eaters, loved the ribs and spring rolls and even ate egg fried rice and sweet and sour pork. The 10 yr old declared it to be the best meal he’d ever had! The staff were fantastic even though it was very busy- we’ll definitely be back.

Lovely place and atmosphere, very efficient staff, nothing was too much trouble at all, my partner is a black man and asked me to add how their natural aproach made him feel relaxed, nothing was too much trouble! Definitely will be returning and recommending. Food was served as we asked, piping hot and fresh! Also reasonable priced!

Came here last week with hubby and two friends. Food was amazing. Tried set menu C. More than enough food for everyone. Always asked if we wanted drinks topping up and zero waiting for anything. Will definantly come back!

Extremely busy but lovely authentic food

As always a really great food experience. The food the service the staff excellent.

Nice interior, excellent food and service and exceptional value for money on the 'early bird' option!

We've been coming here for decades and found it a little hit & miss, but in fairness mostly hit. Like most places it seemed to struggle during the pandemic - menus were restricted , prices hiked , staff stressed etc, so we haven't been coming as often. Also on Saturday nights we find it too busy and the staff are not able to give a friendly service ( although the food stays consistent ). However happy to report on this occasion everything was absolutely wonderful - food quality, staff, service. Maybe this was because we came on a Sunday night where there was enough customers to make a good atmosphere, but also staff had time for a chat and provide top notch service for everyone. Prices are less on Sundays too, not that it's ever too expensive here. Highly recommended based on this visit.

I was at the Ruby 2 weeks ago for Sunday lunch the food was good & plentiful, service excellent prices reasonable it was busy because of the things I have reported so I am surprised by some of the reviews posted.

Felt really rushed when asking about food. Place is too enclosed too many chairs/tables close together. No parking for disabled either or others. Not wheelchair friendly. They brought someone in our party of 20 curry sauce and he nearly ended up with it on his lap because she was rushing to serve.

Good food fast service reasonable price overall good

We hadn't been here for a few years and previously, we had always had a good experience. Unfortunately we can't say the same for our latest visit. We were seated immediately, drinks ordered. Then, in the space of 2 minutes, we were asked 3 times if we were ready to order, bearing in mind we had only been sat down for a few minutes. We ordered starters and mains, the starters were ok overall. The mains were very poor. My husband ordered a pork dish and he had beef, which he tried and it was inedible. My chicken dish wasn't much better. Meat was an awful texture, so much so my husband returned his dish. Waiter was apologetic, offered him an alternative but the staff were rushing around so much, it just wasn't a comfortable experience and we just wanted to leave. I've heard the restaurant has changed hands. If this is the case, it's not for the better. Sadly, we won't be returning, which is a shame because it used to be very good.

Fantastic thanks for a great mother's day

Wasn't really my type of place. Didn't like the setup, and although food was nice. Wasn't enough for our group of 7.

We love it.freshly cooked food to order.special early bird menu.

Had a fabulous meal with family plenty of food provided even had left overs definitely going back

As usual a good experience, plenty of staff on duty, quality of food good which meant good attentive service. Foe me it's hard to fault.

Not even got our bums on the seats wanted to no the drinks or then straight over for the food order, not even picked the menu up 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

THIS WAS OUR FIRST VISIT; SERVICE EXCELLENT PROMPT AND EFFICIENT WE WERE ASKED IF WE WERE READY FOR NEXT COURSE.NO PRESSURE SELECTION; EXCELLENT QUALITY; EXCELLENT QUANTITY GOOD; PORTIONS SLIGHTLY SMALLER THAN SOME RESTAURANTS BUT MORE THAN MADE UP WITH MORE DISHES OF YOUR CHOICE THE RESTAURANT WAS CLEAN AND WARM PARKING COULD BE A PROBLEM FOR DISABLED .WE WERE LUCKY EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY WE SHALL GO AGAIN

We have been to the restaurant and had takeaway loads of times, really love it. Its a shame they don't have a delivery service as would have more takeaway from them if they did

Well we haven't been down for a while and the Mrs requested a visit for her birthday so off we went with a table for two , bear in mind the restaurant has always been good and the only reason I am re reviewing is because it has changed hand and you can tell from the minute we sat down it was like we were rushed the starts came out in minutes, then no sooner had my chopsticks gone down the mains were on the tables I mean the food was good very good but the portion size has shrunk some what for the prices you are paying you expect more there are other restaurants out there that offer just as good food with a better value for money , we will be looking elsewhere in future.

Excellent meal, great quality food and atmosphere

Booked at table for 10 people for a 50th birthday. Just rang to see if could make it 11 people, and was told wasn’t booked in 😡 when i spoke to the same lady 4 days ago . Not helpful at all won’t be using this place again .always double check your bookings

All I will say is what a shame. Been coming here for many years and last weeks visit will be the last. The food wasn’t great. It was hot but very little on the serving dishes and next day all I could taste is MSG. The restaurant was freezing cold and no heating on. Was so cold I had to put my coat on to sit and eat my meal which is not acceptable. It was so busy in the restaurant and the poor staff in the kitchen were having to bring food out to the tables as the waiters couldn’t cope. We arrived to find tables not cleared and food mashed into the carpet. The one person who brought out complimentary glasses of wine to the table slammed them down with such force she could have snapped the stems of the glasses as she was in such a foul mood. Not good enough! Things need to change clearly but I’d say go somewhere else as it’s not worth the money. Very poor.

Enjoyed the Christmas menu for 2. Great choice of beef, prawns and chicken.
