by Tatiana O. on I've been to Ruby Skye throughout the years and it hasn't been my favorite place but this last weekend was definitely my last time there! The bouncers apparently have too much power and it gets to their heads. They were so rude!!! The guys in the club were a bit vulture like and I was shocked to smell one of the worse body odors on a girl when she raised her arms to dance! Too much for me! The atmosphere was very sleazy in general. It is a shame since the venue is nice. The music was good and they always have some form of entertainment on stage but customer service and ambiance make it or break it for me, therefore a one star!
by Kim C. on "Often replicated, never duplicated" is probably the best way to describe Carman's. Those who enter are slammed with a quirky-yet-cozy-ambiance -- framed and unframed pictures of patron/family, ice water served in jam jars, and signs that read "Carman's puts the 'c*nt' back in country" all bring a charmingly and distinctly Philadelphian edge to this hole-in-the-wall diner. I tried Carman's on a mid-morning Monday, and this place was still pretty much full (3x4person tables, 4-seater bar, albeit there were pairs and singles at each table). Carman brought me a coffee right away, and then proceeded to run through the four menu items with a detailed description of each dish. I tried the challah french toast with peaches, blueberries, yogurt on top, and sausage on the side--delicious! My favorite part of the dish was the fruit--peaches were fresh and firm (not canned and mushy) served with the skin on, and the blueberries were 'UGE. The driving force behind this establishment is Carman. She knows all the patrons by name, inquires about their mothers and children, and sits down for a good chat when it's not too busy. She makes the big city of Philadelphia seem like a small-town, homier community than it is, and that in and of itself is something you'll be hard pressed to find elsewhere. P.S. Take the day off from work tomorrow morning and go have brunch at Carman's. It won't be the same if you go on a crowded weekend, even if you do have a reservation. C'mon, you deserve it!
