Congratulations to the owners of Ruby Jack’s in Manila!!!Ruby Jacks Philippines owners

People may mistake Ruby Jack’s for Rudy Tuesday’s in the States 🙂  but Ruby Jack’s is a steak house from Japan!  Now they are in Manila at City of Dreams!!  Ruby Jack’s which opened last mid August on soft opening and formally opened last September 29. It’s a restaurant from Tokyo and is only 2 years old. It’s owned by 3 Hoteliers – One from New Zealand, one from Australia and one from Gana. They opened Two Rooms in Tokyo which is Western Contemporary and it’s doing very well. Ruby Jack’s is their latest baby and now already in Manila. Love the ambiance and everything hereRuby Jack's Steakhouse and Bar (1)

Teppan Grilled Foie Gras – YUM!Ruby Jack's Steakhouse and Bar (18)

 Double smoked thick cut bacon.  The bacon ( from Japan ) is part of a main dish in the brunch menu ( only weekdays and holidays) so we were lucky it was a holiday. We asked for it as an appetizer and it’s so yummy!!! It should be part of the ala carte menu!Ruby Jack's Steakhouse and Bar (19)

 Japanese A5 Miyazaki Wagyu Sirloin – Super yum!  Japanese Wagyu of high grade is always melt in your mouth and very fatty which makes it very good!  You can really always tell Japanese beef apart from any other!Ruby Jack's Steakhouse and Bar (21)
