If you’re looking for good breakfast come here!! The bacon was really crispy like it should be. I ordered a smoked salmon omelette that was good, normally not my preference but i decided to step outside the box and it didn’t disappoint. The biscuits and gravy was decent, nothing special but it did look good though. My server was really nice. It was very crowded and busy so it was a lot going on and it was getting on my nerves but overall a really nice place to go. I definitely will come back and recommend.

Was in town for a wedding and stopped here for breakfast - AMAZING place and food. Love the kitsch vibe, Varronica our server was fabulous. The food was outstanding! Will stop here again anytime we are in Indy. Skip the chains. Eat here.

Really cool place that has excellent food and excellent art work. I had the Cheesecake Pancake and it was amazing!!! Totally worth a try. Cool place with awesome dark art.

Always a good experience at Ruth’s Cafe when I visit Indy! They got rid of my favorite walnut tea, but I would still go back for the delicious food!!! So many options and all that I’ve tried have been delicious!

I am gonna run out of words talking about this place. Make sure to check out the videos, too. If you haven't been to Ruths Cafe, what the heck ya waiting for?? It's beautiful inside and out. The food is so worthy of your time, and the service comes with smiles. There is so much to look at, and you'll never see 2 of the same thing...I didnt!!!! Do I start at the Grogru bathroom or the chick table?? Do I tell U about all the chairs being different and not matching the tables. How about their local art wall? Yes, there's local art for sale that supports the artist!!! This place is so funky that it doesn't fit the area, but just what this area needs. If it's before 2 pm, go by Ruth's and see what I mean. Our food was delicious. Grandma got egg salad (yuck) she loved it. I tasted it. It's not my favorite, but it wasn't gross, just not for me 🤷🏾‍♀️🤣🤣. I built my own scramble and baeby, they got it RIGHT!!! It's just an overall good place to eat. Even the take-home container is one I've never seen. I'm just in love, and we will be back!!!!

This place, is an oddly decorated and eclectic restaurant. I had the traditional, eggs Benedict this morning, which was very tasty indeed. Shaved Ham on top of an English Muffin and two poached eggs and potatoes for 12 dollars. A side order of toast with grape jelly and a piping hot delicious coffee. I really liked this place it had a down home feeling. No two tables, chairs, or coffee cups were identical, so on and so forth. Just like sitting around the table at home when I was a kid. Over the top great service, followed by good food at more than affordable prices. Hope to return soon and try something different. I highly recommend this place. 👍👍

This is a hidden gem. Support great local food before its all gone the way of Panera and ihop. Always good and amazing environment too

We had a great experience at Ruth’s cafe! The overall vibe is rather small but the decor is pretty entertaining. We had a bit of a wait to get a table but they were fast at accommodating us. I got the French toast with eggs & bacon and it was fantastic overall. Overall, a good breakfast joint I’d recommend if you’re staying at one of the hotels at Keystone.
