My husband and I decided that we wanted to try Ruffino’s on the River for our 29th wedding anniversary and we wanted to love it. Unfortunately it was not our favorite. We reserved a solarium table and made sure to note that we were celebrating. We were escorted to our table promptly and asked how long we had been married for. We were quickly served water with crusty French bread and dipping sauce and asked about any extra drinks by a very friendly drink server. Unfortunately we are not alcohol drinkers, but everyone around us seemed to have beautiful cocktails When our waiter arrived he suggested the Fish Katie and Cedar plank catch which was redfish. We also chose to each get a bowl of corn and crab bisque instead of an appetizer. That soup was the hit of our night. Rich, delicious and full of crab. The fish entrees were beautiful. However, the cedar plank fish needed salt, while the mashed potatoes were over salted and the Fish Katie was raw. My husband had eaten about 3/4 when he realized that the rest was not cooked. That bite was a meal ended. Absolutely disgusting. The waiter apologized and took it off our bill. We were done and ready to go at that point. He offered us a free dessert and we decided to take the bread pudding to go. While waiting, we were brought a giant cotton candy, which was delicious, but we were a little confused about it. When our dessert was ready, a gentleman in a suit walked by and just dropped it at our table without a word. At that point, we left. It was a nice restaurant but it definitely had a few kinks and we did not feel celebrated at all. Especially after seeing other reviews with beautiful desserts that were specifically done for those celebrating.

I came here on a double date. We made a reservation and were seated promptly. The server greeted us and explained the wine selection and the chef specials. I decided on the spaghetti and meatballs and it was delicious. It was seasoned well with just the right amount of sauce. I enjoyed everything here.

The food options were amazing, but did not always live up to my expectations. Would definitely go back. Bartenders were awesome. Marley was my fave!

We came to Ruffino’s On The River to celebrate my girlfriend recently landing the job she’s been working toward, and it could not have been a better experience. From start to finish, everything was top-notch. The atmosphere was perfect for a special night out, the service was outstanding, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Our waiter was extremely friendly and accommodating, making sure everything was just right throughout the evening. I ordered the ribeye, and it was absolutely cooked to perfection—one of the best steaks I’ve ever had. Paired with great drinks and a celebratory mood, it made for an unforgettable night. Highly recommend Ruffino’s if you’re looking for amazing food, excellent service, and a place that makes any occasion feel special!
