    The beach location is great. The chicken Caesar salad was a nice compromise ( most of their food is on the high fat / triglycerides side ) for a healthy lunch.

    If you're a tourist visiting, this is kind of a necessity. Locals, we can do without the scene. But there's not much that can compare to memories of a milkshake on a Saturday night at Ruby's

    Can be pricey. Best to eat something else before and then order a milkshake on the top deck.

    Ride your bike along the beachfront then walk to the end of the pier for some good eats. Waitress was very friendly and food was deliscious! The fries were epic, and views of the surrounding mountains

    Sit on the rooftop deck overlooking the ocean and the Balboa Pier, worth the extra wait time.

    The waitress just completely ignored us the whole time. They delivered us the wrong food and it was cold

    This place has the WORST service. For a small place with 20 or so tables you'd think they were running a small village.

    Make sure you use the bathroom before you get there. There's no bathroom in the resturant...
