Ruby 8 Noodles and Sushi

If you weren’t already drooling from my earlier post and photos about Ruby 8 Noodles and Sushi in Horseshoe Casino, you definitely will be by the time you finish reading this post. Ruby 8 Noodles and Sushi has a new location in McHenry Row, Baltimore and I was invited to the soft opening celebration.

Walking into the restaurant, I was excited to see a DJ spinning tunes at the end of the bar. It was a great addition to the party and it relaxed the after-work crowd.

Ruby 8 Noodles and Sushi has a full bar available but the liquor was complimentary for the soft opening…sweeeet! There were three bartenders behind the bar and each created four signature drinks to choose from. My favorite was the Tsunami Jack and my friends seemed to like the Hot Chili.

And of course what sushi restaurant would be complete without a fresh sushi bar.

The restaurant has seating at the bar, there is a small lounge area with three large table and lounge seating and there is also the traditional restaurant booth seating. As soon as we sat down the friendly and knowledgeable staff began to bring us various appetizer items. Too many to name, so I’ll just post the photos below. Please know that everything was delicious.

RE11 — Hawaiian Punch Cocktail created by Alla

RE3 — Lobster with Ginger, Scallion and Crispy Salt & Pepper

Writing this post has made me satisfied and stuffed all over again. If you haven’t done so already, please visit one of the Ruby 8 Noodles and Sushi locations (Horseshoe Casino or McHenry Row) you won’t be disappointed.

I don’t like to gamble but I do visit the Horseshoe Casino in Baltimore occasionally to check out the bar and live music scene and grab a pizza after hours. I have noticed that when I’m there, it doesn’t matter the time or day there is always a crowd at Ruby 8 Noodles and Sushi. I got to thinking… if there is always a crowd the food has to be great so I decided to check it out for myself.

I went there with a friend on a Thursday after work. We were both starving and everything on the menu sounded so appealing that we decided to eat a small feast. The manager Lisa was very friendly and knowledgeable about all the items on the menu. She helped us select the perfect combination of dishes to satisfy our taste buds.

RN2 — Stir Fried Green Beans with Chicken

That food looks so good, it makes me want to go back again and again and again! First let me say that everything was fresh. The shrimp were huge and mixed with the peppers it’s a light dish with lots of flavor. The Veggie Pad Thai Noodles entree is perfect for those who don’t eat meat but want a hearty meal with lots of flavor. The noodles were light and airy and the best noodles I’ve tasted in a long time. My favorite entree was the Stir Fried Green Beans with Chicken. The chicken was tender and the green beans were crispy and fresh. All dishes are the perfect portion for sharing.

As if we didn’t have enough goodness from Ruby 8 Noodles and Sushi…we decided to try the sushi.

RN5 — Top to Bottom: VIP California Roll, Ruby 8 Roll, Horseshoe Roll

Ruby 8 Noodles and Sushi is definitely the best place in Baltimore to eat sushi. This sushi was amazing, the best I’ve ever tasted. My favorite was the Horseshoe Roll (bottom right in photo) with softshell crab and avocado. I think I ate the entire roll myself.

Ruby 8 Noodles and Sushi is opening a second location in McHenry Row on May 12! For those of you who don’t want to deal with the casino crowd, McHenry Row will be a great alternative.
