    I have been to Ray’s on the River (many times), and Ray’s at Killer Creek once. Both were excellent. Ray’s in the City was challenging. First, for an older couple, parking is a nightmare (like everywhere downtown without valet). We finally used Hotel Indigo valet for $30. The restaurant was beautifully decorated. We had great cocktails. The starter that was called Goat Cheese Fritter had zero goat cheese inside. It was like eating a cheddar grilled cheese in fritter form. Meh…my husband had a grilled red snapper that was excellent. I ordered an 8oz filet. 90% sure it was a strip steak but it was well cooked so I ate it as we were pressed for time. An excellent dessert (butter cake) was delicious. Chris, our waiter was great. So all that being said , if you want to go to a Ray’s… go to the River!

    I had a really pleasant experience. I went in to eat for one even though I put one person on the OpenTable reservation. It showed two on their computer so they were unsure. But overall, it looks really great. There was one guy that wasn’t a server but was making sure my drinks were filled, and I had what I needed, which was really great to see the partnership between him and the waiters

    I had a reservation after the SEC Championship. We were seated early before my assigned time and was thankful for that. The food was excellent as was the service.....kudos to the staff for providing a memorable experience on a very difficult night.

    Arrived at 905 for our reservation. Was seated about 920. Ordered hot seafood appetizer which was amazing. That’s when we saw no one again until dinner arrived at 1030. Unfortunately half was delivered to the table next to ours before the server figured out the deal. Rays on the River is excellent. Rays in the City leaves a lot to be desired. Will give them a chance next time we are in town.
