Description

Ruby Takeaway has long been a favorite among local diners seeking quality Chinese cuisine in Birmingham. Patrons describe the food as flavorful, well-prepared, and aesthetically pleasing, particularly highlighting dishes like salt and pepper squid and crispy duck pancakes. However, recent experiences indicate a decline in consistency, particularly when the main chef is absent, leading to disappointing meals. While some customers laud the quick service and polite staff, others report mishaps with orders and perceived decline in food quality. Overall, Ruby remains a beloved staple for many, though its recent challenges raise questions about its future standing.

The ordering process for a delivered meal is ridiculous. I have used this take away for many years BUT never again. Ask for information from staff he couldn't give a dam. Terrible!

I have been visiting this takeaway since 2006. That’s a long time. They have one chef who takes the orders and does the cooking same time. His food quality, taste the aroma is 2nd to none. Last couple of years he had started to take a few days off. Another lady chef takes his place, the food taste is no where near enough the same. I’m fact it’s a complete disaster, the Fish soup with coriander is a different colour, the taste is nothing what i have been used to. So best way forward is I always ask if they have their regular chef in place, if so it’s all good. If not .. local kebab house will do.

Expected food to be value for money but it was not. Chicken fried rice basic, chips looked over cooked and £3.70 for two Cantonese spring rolls, the size of my index finger and as thick was ridiculous. Not ordering from there again.!! Had better else where.!!

After using this takeaway for many years and spending a lot of money weekly last night 23rd Feb my order was 2 hours late after constantly being lied to by the lady on the phone that it was 5 mins away i dared to complain. I told them if the food arrived cold then I would not be happy well the food did arrive cold and after tying to ring them for another hour the food went on the bin. When I finally got through I was told by the obnoxious rude manager that he would refund me but he never wants to hear from me again and suspended my account on food hub. I would like to say to the manager you need to remember it’s your customers that keep you in business and why is it my fault that you messed u with the order and sent it cold 2 hours late. My friends and family use this place weekly but will never be using it again. So my suggested to you is learn some customer service skills before you go out of business because you are rude beyond belief and will never have my money or my friends and families money again!!!
