Heard and read great reviews about this place and so pleasantly surprised for The Hubs to take me here for dinner. The ambiance and decor were amazing. Real lit candles on tables gave the perfect touch. Appetizers, salad, and surprisingly the pizza were YUMMY!

Easy five star review! Great service and great food. Nice decor and views too! Food: the empanadas were so dam good! Full of flavor! Each bite was amazing. The angry shrimp were decent. I wish the waitress would have told us the plate was hot. I burned my hand. Come on. Gotta tell client that. Back to the food. The filet mignon steak was probably one of the best filet cuts I've had. I've eaten at all the top steak houses too but somehow this one was just exceptional! The paleo desserts were amazing too We will definitely be back. Management please instruct your waitstaff to let clients know when plates are hot! I burned my hand!

Super nice experience here this weekend! We had a bit of an earlier dinner and beat the rush, but things definitely picked up a bit as the evening went on. Highly recommend sitting on the patio to avoid some of the noise that's amplified inside. Super cute ambience/string lights outside! As someone trying to make the switch to eat gluten free/dairy free as much as possible, Ruggles Black was first on my list of spots to try. Everything I had was tasty, and especially for those with serious diet limitations this is a great spot to try out! Likely wouldn't get the pizza again, but with such a great range of options on the menu there's bound to be other good bites.

What a treat! I'be had this spot bookmarked for a while now, and passed on another occasion due to the valet line being so long. This time, we made a reservation, valet was accessible, things flowed smoothly, and we made the most of our first visit. The flavors are spot on, and RB is a top tier Houston dining experience. Everything is delicious. The fried chicken was moist and the accompanying sauces were perfect. The seafood ramen was delicious also. The empanadas and the butternut squash soup hit the spot as well. All in all-- Ruffles Black was fire and I can wait to return! Note: $5 valet required. Cheers!

Bachelorette Dinner vibe. I visited Ruggles black for my bachelorette party and my best fried booked a reservation here. I told her I wanted a place that had great food and a nice atmosphere. Yes it was a bchelorette dinner so we wanted something grown and sexy and this place did not disappoint. The service was amazing plus they threw in some freebies for the occasion. The drinks were so good but Lavender Lemonade took the cake! We had some many different drinks but they were all a hit. But let me tell you about those lamb chops, I ate them to the bone. We left so stuffed before we went for a night of turning up.

With friends n family, even a so so meal can turn out to be pretty good. Personally, I didn't have much expectations about the venue, but it turned out to be pretty good. Calamari 5/5. Crispy, deep fried. Very good seasoning n flavor. Accompanied by sauces. Chicken masala pasta 5/5. I really enjoyed this item. Normally I don't get chicken due to lack of flavor, but this one was very well seasoned n sautéed and served with pasta n veggies. Chicken spinach. 4/5. The plank was good. Served with veggies on the side. Good herbs on the chicken. Pistachio snapper. 4/5. Fish was seasoned good. Served with sliced pistachios and veggies. Got some sprouts and potatoes on the side. Good overall flavor. Service was up to standards. Got couple of staff members that were taking care of our table. Enjoyed the company. The only thing, I didn't care too much for, was the lightning inside. It felt dark

Great experience! This restaurant is a bit more upscale and great for a night out with a lot of options on their menu. They have a lot of "keto" or "paleo" options - not a big fan of those buzz words but it may help folks on certain diets. We got the brussel sprouts and crab tower as appetizers. The brussel sprouts were good (a little salty for me personally) and the crab tower while not original in flavor was very fresh. Portions were decent for the price. I got the short rib taco, my friends got heartier dishes. The taco was good, the slaw cut through the saltiness of the tender short rib but they were very generous with short rib so towards the end, I was just eating meat and wanted a bit more of the slaw. My friend's aioli in his fish and chips was unique and citrusy. Everyone really enjoyed their dishes! The dishes are very pricey but the portions match the price. Ambiance is great. We sat outdoors on their patio and the weather was perfect. The atmosphere inside is moodier and perfect for a date night. I think you definitely pay for atmosphere. Service was very nice and prompt! I just wish we had gotten napkins before our appetizer course. $5 valet, parking is impossible unless you do valet. The food here is solid, won't blow your mind, and you will be paying a bit for the ambiance.
