What’s old is new again! A 1950’s style drive-in with retro carhop trays makes its way to Orange County. Ruby’s Diner’s first drive-in restaurant officially opens Monday at 7 a.m. in Anaheim complete with a dozen drive-in spaces served by roller skating servers.
And you can stop by Saturday for a pre-opening celebration from 2 to 5 p.m.: free samples from the menu, burgers, shakes, live oldies music, swing dancers and a classic car show lined up in the car hop stalls. The carhop menu offers a selection of menu favorites: burgers, fries, sandwiches and handmade milkshakes—Ruby’s full menu is served inside.
Ruby’s new drive-in concept also has a new look. It’s a roadhouse diner with mahogany woods and leatherette booths.The inside diner area of the restaurant will offer a full breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert menu with a wide variety of choices, including cinnamon-roll French toast, BBQ ranch chicken salad, Pacific halibut fish and chips, and the new all-American Kobe burgers.
Open 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday through Thursday; 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday. The Ruby’s Five Points Drive-In is at 1128 West Lincoln Ave. in Anaheim. 714.635.7829
