Crunchy cabbage and crisp carrots mixed with creamy dressing for a refreshing side dish.

"We had a reservation and we were on time. The hostess said there would be a thirty minute wait. I complained and the manager came over and said since we had a reservation we’d only have to wait 15-20 minutes. WHAT! We had theater tickets and had to be on time. We were finally seated 20 minutes later and then after waiting almost 10 minutes to even get water we got up to leave. The server finally came over. We stayed and ordered. The food was OK. We gobbled down the food, which is not a desirable way to eat. We got out of there as fast as we could. As Seinfeld said in an episode when renting a car, “you know how to take a reservation but don’t know how to keep it. We’ll never go back."

"Unfortunately, we hit Skippers Pier on an 'off ' night large party upstairs (no parking available even at 5 p.m. , Tuesday Crab night (we didn 't come prepared to pick crabs and no one could sit outside because of possible rain (never happened . So the dining areas were boisterous, loud. Our calamari appetizer was tough, the crab cake entree was all claw meat, fish popper basket was all the same brown fried color, and the shrimp and grits ' had a wonderful sauce and large shrimp, but the grits were so hard they stayed in a big lump even when doused with the sauce. It was not a great night to be there to celebrate a 70th birthday. Overall, it seemed the kitchen was concentrating on the large event and steamed crabs and little attention was paid to our entrees. The one bright spot was our waitress, she was attentive and pleasant."

"We were there around 530 Friday night and they started to get packed. Took a little longer than we wanted but it wasn't a big deal. I will say that the hostess with long blonde hair and Charles Nelson Riley glasses was walking around directing people back and forth to their tables but kept putting her fingers in her mouth while she was walking around. It was sort of disgusting. Ewwwwww"

"Last night we had a party of three and decided to eat in Ruven's. We've been having breakfast for a long time and last night, for the first time dinner guests. Our server was attentive and accommodating. Our meals were served, a dinner was unacceptable. Half a roasted chicken was boiled and the green beans burned. I decided to discuss this with the manager. When I told him that the meal was overcooked, he informed me that he saw my wife cut into the chicken and told me that the white meat of the chicken will be dry. That was an interesting feedback considering that they were busy, and he never saw our way. I found his comments unacceptable, and an apology was never offered. In addition, we were calculated for the side salad and ice tea that was part of the dinner. That was also unacceptable. A manager who does not accept feedback tells me that I'm basically wrong doesn't belong to the business. This was our last time we feed at Ruvens and I will share our experience with friends and family. Totally unacceptable and insulting behavior. There are many other ways to eat in the area and lose customers will not build your business when you take care."

"The food is delicious with a wide menu selection. I have been coming here for over 6 years and it was always a friendly place when Cristos was in charge. Unfortunately, my experience tonight with my sibling was not the same. My sister's meal was incorrect, and the waitress was very rude when she informed him that she had ordered her salad without feta and onion. Another waitress brought out the corrected meal but was also extremely rude. There were too many rude comments and arguments with us and other customers. I do not want to come back here after this experience. I know Cristos would be disappointed. It is disappointing to be treated so poorly in a restaurant that I used to love so much. This is the second time in the last month that these waitresses have been rude to us. Good food is important, but the atmosphere is also crucial to make it a great place to dine."

"What an amazing buffet!! The price was $28.00 for 2 adults with drinks. I thought it seemed like a lot of money but it was well worth it! They have a salad, soup and potato buffet. They have a very wide selection of main courses including chicken, shrimp, BBQ pork, pot roast and steaks cooked to order. The side dishes were veggies, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, cabbage and much more. The dessert buffet had it all!! The chocolate cake was my favorite but they also offered bread pudding, brownies, apple crumb cake, cookies and a do it yourself ice cream bar. There were all types of toppings for the ice cream and it was delicious. Keep in mind that this is not the healthiest of foods. But if you are hungry, I can't think of a better place. The food was really, really good and the service was great. As we were leaving, I saw a sign for the breakfast buffet and I am looking forward to trying it! My only problem was that the bathroom was not as clean as it should have been. On the whole, it was AWESOME and we loved it. Bring your appetite!"

"This diner is fantastic! It's clean, respected, and overall very pleasant. The omelette could have had a bit more bacon, but the service was extremely quick and the portion size was perfect. The server was friendly and the atmosphere was quiet, making it a great spot to get work done. I will definitely be returning!"

"Valentines Day-wasn’t as busy as I thought so surprised it took longer than it should have to get our food. The appetizer wasn’t as warm as it should’ve been but food tasted good. Our server was someone who’s waited on us before always does a great job. The only drawback was the families w/small children- the parents seemed to not care what their children did or how loud they were- not the restaurant’s fault but didn’t make for good ambience."

"It was my birthday, I made reservations for 7:00pm. We weren't seated until 7:30! I had at least 25 guest celebrating with me. The waitress seemed irritated with us asking her for simple things like refills. There was a waiter named Jeremy who assisted her and he was very pleasant and made us all feel welcomed and comfortable. We all put our entree orders in around 8:15 but was not served until 10:00 pm. This made my guest want to leave. The manager came out several times and assured us that our food would be out soon but it took 2 1/2 hours for us to eat! I feel like the staff was not prepared for a large group and it definitely was proven."

"I went there yesterday to order two grinders. Not only are the grinders pricey but being that we were in a rush to get back home which was a hr away we gave a tip. We had no time to settle down and eat so we ate are grinders late which is when we openedthem. When we opened them they had no lettuce no tomato. Not much meat or cheese. I'm 4 months pregnant with twins and alreadywas tired and was anxious for my grinder and that was so disappointing. My husband to go out and buy lettuce and tomatoes to addto our sandwich. When I called the restaurant they gonna tell me you have to ask for lettuce and tomatoes being this is anITALIAN restaurant never have I been to a restaurant like this and have to ask for lettuce and tomato. They gonna say noteveryone want that. But as advertised on the menu it says come with cheese lettuce and tomato even online the option is to sayNO lettuce and NO tomato. Which annoyed me was I never got an apology just it doesn't come with that but it's like you reallytrying to argue with me and both menu and online say the food come like that. They say they gonna give me a refund I better seeit didn't even deserve no tip never will I go back just rude people."

"I stopped in for 'devour Indy ' at lunch and although they were out of my first choice. They let me graze beyond the fixed menu> I had the trout which was plentiful in size and well prepared. The Crab Beignets were awesome! And the Crème Brule was quite good. I also enjoyed a glass of wine and some west coast oysters."

"The wait for the table wasn’t bad at all, despite the fact that the host told us that they don’t get the Open Table reservations. I don’t understand that. They also didn’t have the wine that I ordered, which seems to be the new normal. The Princeton location always seems to have it. We keep trying to give this restaurant the benefit of the doubt, because it USED to be our go-to spot. Now we seem to be going to other places more often to avoid the disappointment."

"We stopped for lunch after walking across the Brooklyn Bridge and it was a delightful experience! The restaurant had a cozy American diner decor and the service was quick, friendly, and comfortable. The menu was extensive, making it difficult to choose from so many options. In the end, we decided on an omelette and the Mexican chips with avocado dip. The chips were a bit pricey but definitely worth it - they were the best I've ever had. I highly recommend trying them! For dessert, we indulged in a cheesecake which had a delicious original taste and came in a generous portion size."

"Went with the family for dinner before a movie across the street. Got the pull apart cheese bread and fried calamari as appetizers and they were excellent. Ordered 2 pizzas, a simple sausage and pepperoni and an Italian beef and giardinare which was absolutely amazing! Everyone had their fill and the entire experience was very pleasant. Service was great and atmosphere is what you would expect from a higher caliber pizza establishment. Top that off with soft drinks and draft beer to put the cherry on top of a wonderful evening. Highly recommend this as one of my favorite local pizza places. Parking: Plenty of free parking in this free standing building's lot Wheelchair accessibility: Close spots, ramps and accessible doors"

"Can't beat less than $20 dinner for two! Our first visit was nice. Not to busy when everyone else has a 30-45 minute wait. This will work for quick comfort food if you don't want to wait or work want to spend an arm and a leg at any of those other chain restaurants. Thanks Leo's!"

"at the arrival we were told that they did not accept reservations about the weekend, although they were able to make a on open table. the restaurant should be removed from the website if not to accept billing reservations. that means they have set us within 5 minutes after our reservation. our server eric was great. he was attentive and had a funny personality that would come well with our group. our foods and drinks were good, although somewhat more expensive than expected"

"Noisy, menu is a bit of a mess, really awful gas-station muffins for sale that all taste like they were under-cooked at the factory. Correction: not at a factory. I would still consider changing that recipe. They don't taste great. Missing a chicken tender from my order, did not offer to make me another. Chicken at least tasted good. Could probably use with a bit more organization.Probably showed up during not a very good night as there was a large Cards Against Humanity game going on. Otherwise its probably a decent place to play games and have okay food and a beer at."
