Ruby's Wine House is a family-run restaurant and wine bar near Coraopolis serving up crowd-pleasing Italian small plates and pastas along with a diverse selection of wine.
The welcoming atmosphere and shareable nature of the food make this a great spot for hanging out with a group. It's the kind of place you settle in and order several rounds of antipasti and wine, all while enjoying the friendly service.
Our first visit here was with a group of friends who suggested the place, and at first we were not quite sure what to expect from this spot that's a bit of a drive out of the city in a quiet, somewhat remote location. Looking at the food menu, you could easily think this is just another red sauce joint cranking out mediocre pasta.
But once we stepped inside, we realized one of the things that sets Ruby's apart is the excellent hospitality. And on top of that, as dish after dish came out, we realized that the food is also executed quite well and belies the seemingly simple menu.
