The Ruebel Hotel has a magnificently restored bar from the 1904 World's Fair in St. Our restaurant, Ruebel on Main ensures a flavorful meal by staringt with the freshest ingredients available. We only serve Angus Beef and hand select all of our meats to maintain our quality. Our homemade dressings are made with canola oil for a healthier choice.
