Craft cocktails and seasonal American fare with shareable dishes
"Darren Carr and Eric Simpkins closed the Lawrence last year on Juniper and replaced it with Rwby (pronounced “Ruby”), a low-key neighborhood restaurant offering a variety of dishes with broad appeal that also stick to the seasons. Dishes are easily shared, too, like the steamed mussels and roasted carrot dip with garlic confit or entrees of roasted acorn squash stuffed with red quinoa, kale, carrots, and fried oyster mushrooms and tangy Flemish beef cheek stew. Like the duo’s other Midtown spots, Bon Ton and the Waiting Room, cocktails don’t take a back seat to the food at Rwby. The Amarcord Spritz, for instance, sees Cappelletti aperitivo and melon rind-infused vermouth topped with prosecco and club soda. But if you’re seeking a Manhattan or Old Fashioned, people who’ve frequented Bon Ton or the Waiting Room know they can get stellar versions of those at Rwby, too." - Molly Harris, Eater Staff
"Serving up inventive cocktail selections and contemporary Southern fare, The Lawrence provides a comfortable and social atmosphere that encourages creativity and excellence in both food and drink. Located in a cozy corner on Juniper Street, The Lawrence is one of our favorite lunch spots and after-work getaways." - Son&Sons
"Midtowners who are actively trying to live that pedestrian life welcome Rwby as a new place to grab a few drinks. For those without a Midtown address, the headache of finding parking at this Juniper Street restaurant is rage-inducing—enough to spark a newfound love for screamo music. But once inside, a small bar framed in a large floral arrangement gives way to a handful of wooden booths in a cozy orange-tinted dining area. Perfectly balanced cocktails like the fruity Paradiso Paloma atone for the parking woes. And food items like their cheesy, juicy burger and reasonable (for Midtown, anyway) prices make the now-unnecessary apology complete. " - nina reeder, juli horsford
"From the team behind Bon Ton and The Waiting Room, Rwby is a new brunch and dinner spot (focused on American bites like burgers and chicken) takes over the space previously occupied by The Lawrence. " - nina reeder, juli horsford
"The Midtown crowd who are actively trying to live that pedestrian life will love a spot like Rwby to grab a quick pre- or post-dinner drink. For those without a Midtown address, the headache of finding parking at this Juniper Street restaurant is rage-inducing—enough to spark a newfound love for screamo music. But once inside, a small bar framed in a large floral arrangement gives way to a handful of wooden booths in a cozy orange-tinted dining area. Perfectly balanced cocktails like the fruity Paradiso Paloma atone for the parking woes. Some food items like the cheesy, juicy burger are supremely satisfying. We'd come back for this. But the bland, poorly named 7-Spice Quarter Chicken is a dish we'd happily skip. There’s no way seven spices could have such little flavor, and the puddle of curry sauce beneath, though good, doesn't quite save it. " - Juli Horsford
