Martin D. CiaoSeptember 4, 2014How can anything tastes so healthy, yet delicious at the same time? I especially love the macaroni salad and the pickles that comes with the sandwich order. Also, seasonal snacks, uber affordable!- Martin D. CiaoDecember 8, 2014Awesome restaurant located at the heart of Tustin. Love their Walnut (kissed the) Chicken sandwich! Not in mood for the whole sammy, get 1/2 sandwich 1/2 soup combo! &Don't forget their seasonal dips!
- Love their "Cockie Leeky" soup! Huge salads, all-around fresh food with great specials. Crowds up on weekend evenings, wish they'd open both sides! Great stop for lunch or dinner in Old Town Tustin.
- Billy AmpAugust 7, 2014Yes, the Garlic Chicken salad is a must! You almost don't even need the dressing because the walnuts do the trick for you! Get a coffee too!
Johnny CaliforniaSeptember 23, 2014Their salads are top top top. They're huge and come in these funky bowls the size of a trough. It's the closest you'll come to eating like a horse.
Sunny AndersonAugust 12, 2015Love Ruta's. If you're here in the summer, I highly recommend the Strawberry Salad; full of chicken, feta, candied almonds, and of course, ripe strawberries.
Robin Lord-HaasOctober 14, 2014I had chicken enchiladas but it was very hard to choose from the very interesting menu items. This is my new favorite place when visiting Tustin!😌
Jerry Don OsborneJanuary 23, 2012Look for what others find special in life. Through others, we find good ways to live. Especially if like myself, you become lost after all your best fRiends have been taken from life and one is Man.Ö
DavidFebruary 26, 2016Everything is amazing. They do serve meat, just no beef. I recommend The Heap sandwich. Or try a pita pizza.
Zoë NewcombAugust 3, 2011I grew up eating the cockie leeky soup. It is so good! I highly recommend it to anyone. Salads are good too. And the pumpkin spice cookies in the fall are to die for!
Huge portions, 40 cent specials, snickerdoodle cookies, chicken green enchilada platter is delicious and can totally be shared plus their lunch specials of soup & sandwich are very filling
The Mexican Chicken Caesar salad is great, and you have to try the 48¢ dip special.
Definitely not a vegan restaurant but very vegan friendly. Twocos are amazing as well as the seasonal offerings
Huge salads with fresh ingredients for a very fair price.
Everything, especially the oatmeal chocolate chip cookies
First MainJanuary 8, 2010Go to Rutabegorz in Old Town and be sure to check out what their $1 special of the month is. It's always sure to be something unique and delicious. Read more
Charlie QuongOctober 5, 2011Trying the curry chicken wrap today. Had the chicken salad sandwich last time. Very good.- Garlic chicken salad with feta is the greatest thing on the menu.
It's Ruta's 40th year so the monthly $1 special is now going down to the monthly 40-Cent special - ALL YEAR LONG!!!
Don't try the chicken curry rap. The garlic chicken is much much better. But hey, to each their own.

"Great atmosphere for a meeting or to do some reading. There's no wifi so it's not the best place for working. They also have one of the best almond milk lattes in Southern California."
Freeman LaFleur - 9.2
"The walnut bread and croissants are amazing here. Enjoy to-go lunches including Japanese favorites like egg salad sandwich and napolitan spaghetti."
First Main - 8.5
"Definitely the best coffee around! They'll make it any way you want it, also serving specialty drinks. Limited pastries and food offerings but great atmosphere with friendly, local crowd."
