Great to see that Ruby has reopened this place as "Vegan Ruby". Same awesome food.

The ladies who run this restaurant should be commended. I give it all the stars, or forks or whatever.
Whether you're a vegan/vegetarian or not, you will be pleasantly surprised. Why? Because...
They know how to cook and to season food nicely. Even the simplest of dishes is well prepared, exquisitely seasoned and nicely presented.
Prices are exceptionally reasonable. They do not use overpriced imported "fad" ingredients. Only simple, fresh and mostly local ingredients, but they do not compromise on variety or quality.
Portions are generous. None of the decorative, yet tiny, portions with high fat sauces like most vegan restaurants. The daily fixed menu lunch will leave you well sated. (They also have some a la carte choices).
Nutritionally they are well balanced, although for WFPB eaters, they do use some oil, white versus whole grain rice, a few things are fried and other things like that.
You can see the menus for the week on the Facebook page so you can plan ahead. A small detail, but very useful.
Las damas que dirigen este restaurante deben ser felicitadas. Les doy todas las estrellas, o tenedores o lo que sea.
Tanto si eres vegano / vegetariano como si no, te sorprenderás gratamente. ¿Por qué? Porque...
Saben cocinar y condimentar muy bien los alimentos. Incluso los platos más sencillos están bien preparados, exquisitamente condimentados y bien presentados.
Los precios son excepcionalmente razonables. No utilizan ingredientes importados "caprichosos". Solo ingredientes sencillas, frescos y en su mayoría, locales, pero sin comprometer la variedad o la calidad.
Las porciones son generosas. Ninguna de las porciones decorativas, aunque pequeñas, con salsas altas en grasa como la mayoría de los restaurantes veganos. La comida del dia de menú fijo lo dejará bien saciado. (También tienen algunas opciones a la carta).
Nutricionalmente están bien balanceados, aunque para los que comen WFPB sí usan algo de aceite, arroz blanco versus arroz integral, algunas cosas se fríen y otras cosas por el estilo.
Puede ver los menús de la semana en la página de Facebook para que pueda planificar con anticipación. Un pequeño detalle,...

Read moreWe visited Vegan Ruby in February. I loved this place. The vegan food was delicious. We had fresh squeezed orange juice, a yummy vegan milanesa sandwich, and we took some vegan tiramisu to go. The staff very sweet. You can feel the warmth of the staff and the love put into the recipes. If the restaurant was closer to our hotel, I would have been here every day...
