We had my mother‘s birthday party there after losing a differentvenue at the last minute. The staff management and owner went above and beyond to accommodate a party for 40 + with less than a week of planning. They created a dynamic tasteful and delicious menu. Portions were generous and everything tasted excellent. Guess being able to buy bottles of wine from their large diverse selection Wines while only paying a small additional corking fee is adds a touch of class for anyone planning an adult party. although their party room is basic it was more than adequate with no additional fees and they set it up as requested. My hats off to the owner/manager and cook staff. I highly recommended their party space for any event or party. As a Resteraunt owner myself I give them two thumbs up and 4.5 stars out of five

This is a unique place with the dining area next to about 10 rows of wine selections from France, Japan, Australia, and US. There was also a beer cave refrigerator. The pasta bloganese was very good as was the specialty pizza. The wall next to us had some art paintings that could be purchased. Great beer selection also. We found a good wine that we purchased and brought home with us.
Although the food is excellent, the service was beyond disappointing. I ordered the Asian Salmon Club, but I'm gluten free. I told the waitress that I wanted it without the sourdough, and that I had wanted an order of of the roasted Brussel Sprouts, as I was looking forward to them. She said fine and that the sandwich had come with salad Greens. Sounded great, and yes it was delicious. BUT! They basically only gave me a 4oz piece of salmon and a few salad greens, and I'm guessing she didn't put my Brussel Sprouts order in because I kept asking for them and I didn't get them until I was pretty much done eating. I also had to ask for water, when she'd been past my table serving other guests several times and I had finished my water. They bagged the Sprouts up for me and said they were not charged, but by then I didn't want them. Then, as I had stated I was pretty much done, and I'm trying to wave her down to pay for my food as she's going to other tables. I ended up walking to the bar to cash out. I'm hoping it was just an off night as I hadn't been in years so I was looking forward to eating there again. But if service is like this, I may not go back for some more years. My recommendation is to stay on your waitress for service
I went on a whim, wanting to pick up a bottle of white wine to go with dinner. The lady that helped me was AMAZING! She stopped what she was doing and went above and beyond to answer my questions and show me a variety of choices. She poured me a tasting, to get an accurate measure on what I was looking for…and I ended up purchasing the bottle. She nailed it!!! In a day and time where customer service seems dead, I am so happy that Ray’s values each and every customer. I was treated like royalty in a matter of minutes. I will definitely be back. Thank you for taking the time to help me, you gained a happy and now loyal customer!
First time going in here for my birthday dinner with my husband and mother-in-law. The place has a classic ambiance. The staff were courteous and quick to serve. The food was definitely superb! I loved everything we ordered and people must try them. We ordered for appetizers: blue crab dip, folded shrimp quesadillas; for entrees: shrimp salad, rib eye steak & the seafood trio in fettuccine. Among the few restos we've been to where the steak was how we wanted it to be. Will definitely go back.
