Ruth's Chris Steak House - FairfaxNothing Short of OutstandingAnother fantastic experience at Ruth's Chris in Fairfax; the service was the best and only equaled by the quality of the food!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect dinnerEverything was perfect including food and service. We were seated quickly. The filet was cooked perfectly and service was fast. The server was very careful when packing our leftovers. I especially appreciated the seafood gumbo soup, served before the main course. The soup was outstanding.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMAnother Wonderful ExperienceThe service was excellent. Our waitress and staff was there enough for great service but not to much to so we could enjoy our meal. The steaks were exactly as we wanted them and the sides and desserts are always excellent.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMEverything at Ruth's ChrisEverything at Ruth's Chris was fabulous, from the food to the service to the ambiance.

I would definitely recommend this to a friend.4/22/2013 12:00:00 AMAnother truly wonderful experience.Another truly wonderful experience. Scallops were deeeeeelicious. We will be back again and again.4/18/2013 12:00:00 AMWe were there for our anniversaryWe were there for our anniversary and were pleased with the entire experience. Our waiter was very helpful, but not intrusive. The wine list was a book! Although everything is ala carte, the side portions are all large enough to be shared. We both had the rib eye and both were cooked the way we asked for them to be. We had the stuffed mushrooms to start, the baked potato and broccoli for sides and the banana cream pie for dessert. The pie was also large enough to share, but we chose not to. It is very expensive, but if you skip the wine, it is only expensive. If you truly love steak, this is the place.4/7/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat steakWe went for our daughter's 14th birthday and were pleasantly surprised to find "happy birthday" confetti adorning the table when we were seated. The service and food were excellent. Best steak my husband and I have ever eaten in a restaurant: cooked perfectly! Service was excellent and attentive.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of the Better LocationsRuth's Chris is a steakhouse chain that can be hit or miss. Some locations are outstanding and some never seem to be better than average. At their price level, they need to be outstanding all the time. Fortunately, the Fairfax location is one of their outstanding locations. Perfectly prepared foods, excellent service, and friendly staff make this a lovely place to dine. Make sure you try the Sweet-Potato Pie with Pecan topping - Simply amazing!!!4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMConsistent food. Out of allConsistent food. Out of all the Ruth's Chris restaurants in the DMV area, the Fairfax locations ALWAYS has the best service down to each employee. On this particular occasion, we were celebrating two birthdays, two anniversaries and a pregnancy, and each event was remembered by our server. We were not there for any singing or special treats, just a special meal with good service, and that is what we got. Thank you.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat night out!Delicious all around. Great value in the set options...salad, entree, side and dessert! I had a filet that was terrific and perfectly done.We loved the mushrooms and sauteed spinach. Lots of room around the tables so even though it was full on a Saturday night, it didn't feel crowded. It's a great special occasion place.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMService was terrific; so wasService was terrific; so was the overall dining experience.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMshort and sweetFilet Oscar Style, the best thing on the planet. End of review.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMFantastic meal!We had a wonderful meal Saturday night. The filet was fantastic; it needed no garnish/sauce it was so good. Tender beyond belief. The salmon, salad and baked potato were delicious too. But the filet was the star.
The only thing I could have done without was the green bean casserole; the beans were good but the fried onion topping was greasy. Didn't eat 'em (the onions).
Service was tops; friendly and professional. We were not rushed.
Now my husband is required to take me here once a year, poor guy. ;)3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of the Better Ruth's ChrisI have been to several Ruth's Chris Restauarants and they can vary in quality. The service is almost always excellent (except for the one in Bethesda, MD).
This particular Ruth's Chris in Fairfax near Fair Oaks Mall is one of the better restaurants with excellent food.
The one in Tysons corner is usually excellent, with occassional lapses. The one in Alexandria is not good. The one in Baltimore near the Inner Harbor is excellent.3/15/2013 12:00:00 AMClassic Ruth Chris, but ifClassic Ruth Chris, but if you visit the Fairfax location, get Edwin as your waiter. He's the best one there.3/11/2013 12:00:00 AMFilet was outstanding as always.Filet was outstanding as always. Great service.
