This will be the second Amy Ruth’s Restaurant. The first one is in Harlem. It boasts authentic home cooked Southern Cuisine. A welcome addition to Downtown Brooklyn and a good fit in the old Gage & Tollner space. We hope that it doesn't go the route of TGI Friday's. Only time will tell. I will certainly be there on opening night.
