We stopped in after attending an overlanding event at the Penitentiary about 10 miles away. The owner told us they were completely sold out of breakfast and needed 20 mins to clean up for lunch. It must be good if they sold out of all of their breakfast!! We waited and were served very promptly. Fried bologna was OUT OF THIS WORLD DELICIOUS!!!!!! Slightly burnt (which I love) and full of flavor. Thanks Joann!!!!!

The meatloaf was as good as mine but I didn't expect it to be cold. Will definitely be our go to when craving meatloaf. Husband had the bacon cheeseburger and said it's the best he's had in ages. I really wanted to love the Mac and cheese but it was quite bland. I saw someone else get fried okra and will definitely try it next time, looked so good.I guess they're short staffed so service was slow but loaded with personality 😅

Walked in for lunch. Saw the sign about staff shortage. Understand those issues. However, I and one other lady was at a table. I found a clean table and sat down and waited. Another group walked in, sat down and got immediate service. I was willing to even let that slide, but the waiter made the mistake of not acknowledging me so I walked out. Lunch hour is limited. Train employees to scan room and especially at least say, "Will be with you shortly."

This was the second time that I have eaten at Ruby's. Apparently they have been in this location for 7 years. This morning it was busy and the server was overwhelmed. We waited quite a while to be served and for the food to come out. But it was Saturday and we had nowhere to be. The coffee was cold unfortunately, and the biscuits were pretty dry. The sausage was right from a package. The eggs were perfectly done. I think if I went again I would get the hash browns, they looked pretty good. The price was reasonable. My husband and I were kinda confused by their tagline though..

Great staff. We were out riding all morning and lunch was being pushed back further and further due to places closing early or for the season. We showed up 20 minutes before closing time, which we normally don't do. They were happy to serve us and even though they ran out of ground beef for the day (which means they make good food with that), the blt and chicken strips hit the spot.Thank you very much for taking care of us, we really appreciate y'all.

Friendly. Lunch specials. And a pig collection. My only complaint is that I ran out of hotdog bits before I ran out of sour kraut.Best Ruby's Diner in Oliver Springs cause it doesn't matter to me.

Excellent time here, came in to get breakfast, unfortunately got there a little late and missed the time, but it was worth it. We all had amazing food with great atmosphere. Well worth the visit and will always be a favorite when I'm in the area.

This place is great! My husband and I get breakfast here at least twice a month. It's a great down to earth local place. Thier pancakes are the best part. They are the size of a dinner plate,thick and fluffy. They are also extremely affordable, which is a huge plus!

We love to visit mom and pop places like this when we are able to find them. The food was very good. Everything is homemade and very well portioned! The greens and meatloaf were great and let’s not forgot the cornbread. We had carrot cake for dessert and it was great! We will definitely be back!!!

We went on a Saturday morning and the place was jumping! Had a 10 minute wait outside to get a table but it was worth the wait! Great food, prices, and service! A special shout out to the young girl taking care of getting everyone seated! What a sweetie!
