Ruby Tuesday - Albany

Solid if not exceptional classic American food. The food is very consistent across all locations... It's the service that's always the variable. Our service yesterday was quite nice, perfectly adequate. Not over the top memorable, but perfectly adequate. Same for the food. Burgers are always good, the fish tastes fresh, and the iconic salad bar is something to count on. A salad bar lunch is great, by the way, if you're traveling and want something quick but not heavy. Lots of Ruby Tuesday locations near interstate exits these days, and it's always our choice. (With a salad bar meal you bypass any service wait time. It may not be the place you want to impress your first date, but it's usually never a bad choice. If somebody suggested it, I'd happily go along.

Excellent service. Waitress was always on point. I ordered rare in fear it would be over cooked and it arrived as feared, more medium but it was so well seasoned and tender I could overlook the error. The salad bar was well stocked by variety and pleasing to the eye. While I didn't drink the options were plentiful. I had a pleasurable experience.

This is the best salad bar I've ever been to! They have an amazing selection of fresh vegetables and dressings. I always enjoy the pasta salad there. As for the entrée, the blackened tilapia was quite tasty, especially since I requested extra seasoning. However, I felt the dirty rice could use a bit more flavor, if you know what I mean!

My daughter and I frequently dine here because we really enjoy the salad bar, and the food is consistently well-prepared and delicious. However, I have to deduct one star due to the service being somewhat lacking. We've visited several times for an early dinner and have had to wait around 10 minutes for a waitress to come to our table and provide us with menus. We definitely felt overlooked during those times when no one attended to us.

I visited this restaurant for the first time, and I absolutely loved it. The staff was nice and friendly, and the waitress was also very lovely. The food was fantastic, and the service was excellent. I will definitely be coming back. It's a must-try!
