  Went to the Ruby Tuesday in Pueblo Colorado in response to emails and daily deals offered on Ruby Tuesdays website (shrimp and half rack of ribs). Told server we wanted three of these special deals; when we received the bill, each order was charged at the regular price ($23.99). We informed the server that it was advertised on Sundays at $12.99. The server was unaware of the daily specials and told us the manager stated only one meal would be at the advertised price, we would have to pay full price for remaining two meals. This is not listed on either my Ruby Tuesday rewards emails I receive daily of the Ruby Tuesday website that advertises special meal deals for each day of the week

  I will never return to this Ruby Tuesday location. This was my first and last visit. I decided to give this Ruby a try, what a mistake. First when I arrived, all 5 'curbside pickup' parking spots were full. NO ONE was in any of the cars. And there were more cars than there were customers in the restaurant (sad for a Saturday night). This tells me curbside is really 'employee parking'. So I parked nearby and called the number I was given in the online order to call when I arrived. No one answered the phone I tried SEVEN (7) times and no one answered the phone. So I went inside the restaurant. Had to wait 10 minutes in the alley near the bar with other customers apparently waiting for their food too for some time. Picked up food finally, and got home. Ordered 3 items and only 2 were in the bag, the $14.99 Ruby Sampler was missing. So, already somewhat agitated by the experience to this point, I tried calling the restaurant. Multiple times until someone finally picked up. The person said to me, 'Does the tag on the outside of the bag say the sampler?' I said yes it does. She said, well, you can come back in and pick it up. I said I'm not driving all the way back for the sampler, please refund it. She said she could not when the order is placed online. I said, well how do I get my money back. She said you'll have to go to the corporate website and hung up. So even more agitated, I went to the corporate website/ contact us, and it says 'for issues, please contact the specific location'. So I drove back to the restaurant and asked to speak to the manager. I went through the whole thing and she offered to get the sampler 'and a desert'. I said I wanted my money back. She said, even as the manager, she could not do that. The employees all stood around watching all of this as well, as some form of entertainment, while other orders went unfilled, unattended to, and phones unanswered. I am still out this money as of this writing not to mention the disservice encountered.

  I have not heard from Ruby Tuesday nor received a resolution from them of my complaint, i.e. the same silence you have received. The only response I received was to my Google Review to please re-direct my complaint to their corporate headquarters customer service (see attached pic). I have done that as well, but no response from that either. My complaint remains unresolved. Thank you. Joe

  I have attempted to sign up for the Ruby Rewards customer promotions program on 3 different occasions, it does not work. This leads me to wonder is my data that I have provided you safe, since your complaints and promotions do not seem to work. By the way I have been a customer of Ruby Tuesdays for 2 decades +. Corporate response is floundering. The sign in does not work.

  Ordered food 7/9/24. Went to resturant,parked and called them. Spoke to team member, gave my name and space number. He said it would be a few minutes. After 30 minutes I went into the resturant because the phone number went straight to " we are busy now" message. Team member there said they didn't know I was there and put my food on a shelf for pick up. No explanation about who I talked to on phone. I would like my ***** ******* credited to my card since I got no food. Resturant said they are not allowed to reimburse. Have left 2 voice mails and 2 emails on website with no response from Ruby Tuesday.

  On Sunday, June 2, 2024 around 3:35 , we stopped into the Easton, Maryland Ruby Tuesday after church. We were seated into the bar area. That area was very disgusting, the floor was very dirty, it appear it had not been washed in a long time. I was a military cook and the the area were we were seated was a no no, No one should have been served in that area. We couldn't enjoy our dinner because of the condition the area was. My wife boxed her dinner up and I picked over mines. I told the sever she should point the condition of the area out to the manager. We paid ****** for our meal and left a $***** tip. Someone should really check into this terrible condition. We have eating there many times in the pass but never in bar area.

  The promotion that was running was ** discount on a gift card purchase *** or greater, meaning the guest would need to purchase a ****** gift card. We are more than happy to issue the guest a ***** voucher for the inconvenience.

  Establishment violated health standards which I observed as my food was being prepared. When the establishment attempted to get my order to place in the bag, I then requested to speak to a manager. First manager, a female stated they could not refund money to my debit card. Then a male manager came and stated that corporate doesn't allow them to refund money to credit/debit cards. They would not even give me cash. They informed me I would have to have my banking institution stop payment. Unfortunately, bank could not stop until it clears the bank, I sent a response to Ruby Tuesday via their website and informed them they committed fraud. Unable tor each anyone at corporate in Maryville, TN which is nothing new. Also notified my local health department with the health standard infractions. Columbia County Health Department will investigate. Management did nothing to pull the employee aside to correct them, I have also filed a report with the FDC regarding this matter.

  I am my significant other. Attended the Ruby Tuesday restaurant at 1206. Shelton Beach road, Saraland, Alabama , 36571 t**** ***** ******* *********2 on April 29th, 2024. Unfortunately, it was a bad experience. I ordered coconut shrimp which came back over cooked after sitting there. Wondering if we were going to be waited on the person came over? Then we didn't see him for a long time. We sat there and watched him. Pay more attention to other people with. In the restaurant, it was very uncomfortable. I had to send back the food I had and I never had an opportunity to eat lunch that day. So I drank a cup of tea that's all. We arrived at 2:42 PM. And did not receive our food approximately until 3:31 PM. The place was not crowded. Again, I state the shrimp I receive. Looked as if they were overcooked and just not in any way visually appetizing. You were not offered military discount as we heard another table being offered that I. Also was not told that the product would have been only ** if we waited a few more minutes. I asked for a lunch menu and a gentleman just stated. Well, you can eat over at the buffet, which was dismissive in its vocal tone. So I would like to speak to someone about this experience. It was horrible and there was no reason for it

  I am rejecting this response because: I did contact the guest relations department and never received a contact. If that's what they want me to do, they need to provide the contact information, not just one sentence and a response letter.
  I need the contact information From uby Tuesday. Their responses are untimely and seem to be unprofessional. Their concern for my situation seems to be lacking.
  Sincerely,
