Great food at a reasonable price is what it is all about!! With some of the best Pad Thai I've ever had and BYOB without a corking fee, Rutais has what it takes to have a great night out in Mt. Lookout. Be careful though, this family restaurant goes on vacation so call to make sure they are open before... More

A good place for Thai food. It took a while for the dinner to arrive, but it was tasty and worth the wait. The staff was great and it will be a place I will return to the next time I am in Cincinnati.

We have been going to Ruthai's for a few years now. Both my boyfriend and I are Asians and we travelled extensively in Asia, including Thailand. We found Ruthai's to be a home away from home. When we miss mom's spicy, home cooking meals, we think of Ruthai's. It's a small, mom-and-pop shop. Ruthai normally works in hot kitchen and... More

My wife and I love going to Ruthai’s alone or with friends. They have great sushi and Thai food. The place is rather small and can get crowded from time to time. Bring your own beer or wine as they don’t service alcohol. No corkage fee!!

I am writing this review as a local. I go here with friends often. It is a family owned one shop restaurant [not a chain] in Mt. Lookout Square. I always prefer mom & pop restaurants and coffee shops as they are unique in every way. The food is great. The entrees and the soups I have tried are very... More

We went to dinner this evening at Ruthai's, which we first visited last year at our daughter's suggestion when I commented that our favorite Cincinnati Thai restaurants seemed to be turning into greasy spoons with an excess of oil. Although the surroundings are modest, the food is exceptional: a large varieity of fresh, beautifully presented large portions of very tasty... More

My wife and I absolutely love Ruthai's Thai Kitchen. It is like a hidden little gem in the town of Mt. Lookout. We have eaten there probably 10 times, and every single time our meal is out of this world; we've never been disappointed. The food always comes out in unique and interesting dishes. Also, Ruthai's is BYOB, so you... More

I stumbled on this hole in the wall place when walking around Mt Lookout. I had the Shrimp Salad ($10) which was a delicious mixture of julienned vegetables, cilantro and 5 HUGE shrimp in a delicious, tangy and flavorful light dressing. Muthai waited on me and asked how spicy I wanted my food. Nice touch! This is authentic food at... More
