Splitty-split on the burger and one of the pastas (spicy sausage !) is the way to go. One of the best casual lunch spots in the hood IMHO

Let me introduce Bronte to you. He will be your best friend for 10 minutes. Best 'different' burger so far. The pasta has no chance after this burger , but is good, too. I tried 'roasted vegetable '.

Vinti Bhatnagar

Great for brunch (until 1 pm) with a ton of veg options . While the green eggs dish isn't filling, the kale is out of this world with its subtly sweet taste . ????

Cole Kennedy

The Bronte Burger is freakin' amazing. It's messy, and a bit unorthodox, but so delicious. The truffle fries bring it to new heights. Bonus: Australian accents.

Jack Osborne

If I ever get in to the restaurant game I'd want my restaurant to be a carbon copy of Rubys. Everything about this place is excellent. Well , everything apart from the shit hipsters that congregate.

Tim Shea

Worth noting that they have delicious Gluten Free breads and pastas . You really can’t go wrong with anything you order, but I’d highly recommend the hash browns or fries & the breakfast egg sandwich .

Andrei Kryssov

Although I did not have it (and regret it) the burger my friend got (and I tasted) was amazing. Get the side of Brussel sprouts as well . Thank me later.

Eric Breese

I have never been disappointed here, either by service or food. Highly recommend any of the pastas or the breakfast bowl at brunch . They have an excellent outdoor seating setup for COVID, too!

Bronte burger and creamy chicken pasta were our choice. Both were really delicious, but the burger was slightly overly sweet for me. And the wine glasses are funny and cute .

Nicole Formica

BRONTE burger . Hands down. No question. Also get a side of fries .. which is served with truffle aioli ????

J Crowley

Treat yo'self to this burger and truffle fries . Absolutely incredible! It's a lot of food, so go splitty splitty with the gluten free pasta dish. Use the truffle fries as leverage.

Ruby’s, an Australian hole-in-the-wall, is one of the best spots in all of downtown. Its burgers are some of the best in New York. Try the Brontë burger with crispy fried Brussels sprouts . Read more

Adrian Phillips

Brussels sprouts , sweet potato fries with sweet chili sauce and any of the burgers or chicken sandwiches are bloody fantastic. Wash it all down with a Cooper’s Pale Ale from South Australia.

PureWow

Bronte Burger : Keep it simple with ground beef , lettuce, tomato , sweet chili , mayo and cheese , then switch things up with toasted ciabatta bread instead of a bun . Ooo, living on the wild side. Read more

Bayan Bamukhayyar

Passion fruit granola bowl, green eggs , penne a La vodka , and ricotta hot cakes are amazing. Love that they serve their full menu all day, perfect place for all day dining.

Bronte burger and fries ! I didn’t want to forget it’s name so I’m leaving a comment here. Unforgettable!

Brigitte Perez

Bronte burger is amazing. Added bacon of course. Creamy chicken pasta is delicious. Nice cozy spot .

Alissa Winberry

Everything is good. Can't go wrong. Go at an off peak hour so you can enjoy.

Dan Darouvar

This is a great breakfast/brunch spot! I love the big, floor to ceiling windows and the seating next to those. Perfect for people watching :). They serve delicious, imaginative salads .

AmateurConcierge

what tourists want in "soho": a cool crowd in a unique hole in the wall with healthy options that feels like a hidden gem . Unfortunately the teams ingredients aren't always fresh & waits can be looong

PureWow

Would you opt for sweet-potato fries over regular fries any day? This Aussie spot ramps up the salty-sweet goodness with sweet chili sauce and a dollop of sour cream . Read more

Rafi Syed

All of the burgers are unique (the meat and the bun are...more Australian) and tasty. The real lunch winner is the chicken avo salad . Light and well-dressed, just like your favorite startup employee.

Adam Spagnolo

This is a cool little restaurant with a garage door that opens up to the street. The crispy chicken salad is delicious. Ask for one of the two tables along the garage door and closest to the street.

Sasha Jones

Every single thing on the menu is delicious! From their creative salads , to pasta dishes and their infamous burgers , you can't go wrong! Such a fun atmosphere and friendly waiters . My favorite spot!

Luke Pack

I tried the cheeseburger and it was awesome. The fries cost extra and were nice and crispy . Cozy place and can get packed on Friday and weekends. The portion sizes are small. Great service.

That Girl

Always packed but quieter if you do an early dinner . Pastas have interesting flavors without being obnoxious. Portion sizes are perfect.

Holiday

I've enjoyed watching this location expand over the years. Food & service are incredible. Pasta , burgers are gluten free by request. Coffee counter culture . Casual , fast, top quality, worth the wait!

Clarissa

Amazing food - bronte burger , truffle fries , chicken avo salad , quinoa bowl. Good music too ????

David Hu

Tiny place but amazing food. Panini was great, jealous I didn't get pasta or burger though. Try an Australian beer !

dawn.in.newyork

Pasta dishes were great, but a side dish of sweet potato fries w/ sweet chili sauce & sour cream was actually the best.

al viciedo

The Brontë burger is excellent and definitely the item to order. The burger blends a meaty and delicate sweetness on a panini type bun . The fries also are on point.

Serious Eats

Their Aussie-style Whaleys burger made with a meatloaf-y patty topped with beets , pineapple , and a runny fried egg may not be anything like a typical American burger , but it's still tasty. Read more

Foxxy B

Hip & hot scene, good looking & tasting food, & great service. Small space & nearly impossible not to wait during any given day's brunch/dinner hours. Fun Aussie drink selection; no liquor .

Gauri Manglik

Really like this place. It's super super small but can always manage to get seats. Salads and pasta are both awesome. Apparently the burgers here are great too cc @xy (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Alexis Bendjouia

Awesome spot. Farro and haloumi salad . Brussels sprouts are a MUST. Bronte burger is hardcore but pretty awesome if you're really hungry

HK

Totally recommend it. The food and the service both are good. We got the kale salad and bronte burger both good. The watermelon juice wasn’t that good as i expect.

Noah Weiss

One of my favorite hearty salads in Soho is the roast vegetable salad with roast pumpkin , peppers , goat cheese , pine nuts , and arugula .

Andrew K

Wanted to find probably the best burgers in NYC? Whispering: it's here! Awesome place! Tiny. But really atmospheric and definitely worth to visit.

Anna

Spicy Italian sausage pasta is delicious! Chocolate desert is sweet and nice, but better to share or take a half to go :)

Kate Furman

A wide variety of healthy options , including the quinoa bowl and shrimp and avocado salad . Bronte burger is also delicious, if you're feeling unhealthy.

Jess

Love their burgers . 2 thin patties, potato bun , cheese melty. Not the kind of burger that’s too hard to open your mouth to eat. Spicy rigatoni also good.

Grayson Squire Whitehouse

one of my go-to spots for a delicious meal any time of day or night. cozy , friendly , healthy (as well as delicious) and also inexpensive

Bohdan Hnatkovskyy

Ruby’s is an excellent choice for a weekend brunch . Get any bowl + mimosa , and your day will be a little bit brighter.

Anechka M.

Best sandwich in your life - Bronte burger ! They have amazing salads and pasta as well and also reasonable pricing and excellent service.

Amanda Miller

Everything at this place is amazing - the bronte burger , the creamy chicken pasta , the salads , the juices - and reasonably priced. Amazing place

Avneesh Kohli

The Bronte burger is among the best I’ve ever had. Get the fries with the aioli sauce too.

Jordan Donati

Everything at Ruby's is great. The Shrimp and Avocado salad is my favourite. Has something for everyone - salads , pastas , burgers .

Maria Riabtchenko

The breakfast bowl , avocado toast , and bacon is divine ????

Joan Park

the biggest chunk of ground beef on a burger . get the bronte for the sweet chili kick with a side of thin crispy fries .

Kayleigh Harrington

Excellent sweet potato fries with sour cream and sweet chili . Always a fun vibe, sometimes a long wait .
