    We decided to try new things and ordered the lotus chips Very tasty with tea leaf aioli which we loved, along with the Tea Leaf Salad which is the most interesting and delicious salad on the planet! The staff took great care of us, advised on a few choices on the menu which turned out to be beyond great, Delicious and a pleasure to try! We had the broccoli with garlic, the Chicken and Shrimp, the Ruby Shrimp too and the food was fantastic in presentation and flavors. We will definitely dine at Rangoon Ruby again!

    The server Mel was great we love him. I asked for no spice and the chicken and they added hot peppers. The broccoli was cold and my friends rice was not hot. But the food was delicious once we got it right

    Very good food, brought quickly. Service slow at entry and at end of meal (getting seated then getting boxes and check). Definitely good enough to go back

    We ended up having to get our food to go. Our apps came out fast and then we waited over 40 min for our entrees which we finally had to ask for to go. Also now refills on the drinks or even a check in while we waited.
