Diner Reviews
  • "This was our first visit to ruths chris. I took my fiancee for his birthday and we both loved everything. We had the barbeque shrimp for a starter, each had a petite filet with potatoes au gratin for dinner. All were incredible. The steak was perfectly cooked in every way, and our service was outstandingfrom the moment we entered to when we left. We will definetely be back"

  • "I take my daughter to Ruths Chris every year for her birthday. This year was her her 16th. When I made the reservations on Open Table, I noted this fact. When we arrived, everyone from the General Manager to the hostess made sure to wish her a happy birthday, and they decorated the table with little birthday trinkets. Trent was our server for the evening, and he was awesome. This was a very memorable evening for my daughter. I love the open table app and plan to use it often."

  • "I go for the AWESOME FOOD & OVER the TOP SERVICE!! Our waitress Joy and tablemate Eddie were a delight. We went there for Valentine's Day evening. No wait (Had reservations), no feeling rushed to have the table turned over for the busy holiday. Everything top to bottom was just AWESOME. The Kobe was over the top and the lobster mac n cheese was okay ~~~~~ needed a little work BUT the lobster was cooked perfect."

  • "Celebrated a belated Valentine's Day with my wife. Awesome everything! You get what you pay for. Fine dinning at its best."
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "The tomahawk steak was absolutely amazing like always. The potatoes au gratin and the asparagus was also two great sides to choose. But the chocolate cake thing was way to rich and was only eatable with ice cream and berries. I would recommend replacing that with something else."
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "My husband and I enjoyed our evening with a great dinner and great waitress (Marilyn). The sizzling sound of that tender Ribeye steak and scallops added to our appetite. It was a relaxed atmosphere and music was romantic."

  • "Ruth's Chris being a high end chain consistantly delivers a good experience. If you've never been, it's a treat for and awesome steak, if you've been, you know what you'll get. Not for the price shopper for sure, but worth it."
    Dined on 12/31/2013
  • "My fiance and I chose to eat here during restaurant week due to all the positive things we have heard. It was very romantic and the food was great, but it is very pricey for the food you do get. I will only go during restaurant week when prices are reduced."

  • "From the minute we walked in and were greeted at the door to the very end of our meal it was a wonderful experience. The staff was attentive but not obtrusive. The food was excellent, great presentation and generous portions. Well worth the cost for not just dinner but the experience. Our waitress was named Helena and was pleasant and went that extra step to make out experience special. A little on the expensive side but well worth the extra money. We recommend this to anyone."

  • "We'd had $100 in Ruth's Chris gift cards lying around the house for probably three years, so we decided to give it a try on my birthday. We had been to a few other locations around the country on business dinners (fed en masse with what the boss man ordered for you,) and were left with the impression that it was "another damn steakhouse." We typically are not caught in places like this, preferring to eat sushi or other ethnic cuisines (i.e., "weird food" to our unadventurous friends,) when we dine out. The staff was especially great. Three people asked if we were celebrating a special occasion, and I lied, but I wanted no cake near me! (Avoiding carbs at the moment.) The food was delicious and the service impeccable."
    Dined on 2/3/2014
  • "This was our first visit to this location, although we've eaten at others several times. As usual, the steaks were excellent. We had a wonderful server whose name I unfortunately cannot recall, but she truly made our evening special. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, with the exception of a rather noisy bar that somewhat disrupted our experience."
    Dined on 12/14/2013
  • "Absolutely no complaints. Filet cooked to perfection (as always). The creamed spinach is to die for. No other establishment can match it. I had seafood gumbo soup which was delicious. A simple dessert of chocolate mousse and berries was presented in such a way that one would think it was gourmet prepared. The service was excellent. It may not be a restaurant you can frequent every weekend, but it certainly is worth going to when you want to treat yourself to a perfect meal."

  • "Enjoyed sitting in front of the fire place Food and service were great. Wonderful evening celebrating a birthday."

  • "We visited Ruth's Chris during restaurant week to give it a try and see what the hype is all about. Now I understand. The service was impeccable, and the quality of the meet was outstanding, beyond our expectations. Very moist and tender. The manager also came and visited which was an added bonus. It is pricey so I am hoping they have another special we can take advantage of, as I want to go back!"
    Dined on 1/17/2014
  • "this was a great night with my family. I am a lover of a good steak and Ruth's Chris has got that down to a science. My steak came out just the way I ordered it (medium rare) it was the perfect portion of the perfect cut of meat. Oh yeah and then the dessert was AMAZING! Apples, caramel and ice cream YUM! This is definitely an upscale environment and the waitstaff knows how to cater to their guests. Loved the whole experience."

  • "If you like steak this is a must try! you will not be disappointed! food is great, wine is delectable, and the steak and service is second to none. it is more pricey on the weekends usually (150+) for a couple, but well worth it!!!! the portions are very big, sides should be shared if ordering from the al carte menu. during the week they have a menu that is more affordable, there are full meals for under 50 per person and up. Well worth the cost!!!!! you will never look at steak the same way again. they do have other options other than steak like different fish and seafood, lamb chops, ect."
    Dined on 1/17/2014
  • "Went here for restaurant week and I was blown away. I've heard only great things about Ruth's Chris but was never in a rush to go because I do not eat beef. I hear their steaks are the best! We had reservations and it was about a 10-15 min delay which was a bummer but my overall experience exceeded any negative thoughts I had. I ordered the salmon and it was delicious. My friend ordered the steak and it looked so yum I had to give it a try. I'm not sure if it was because I don't eat beef or just the perfection of the steak, but it was the best I have ever tasted (or remember tasting). I have to go back!! Yes it is a little pricier than other restaurants but its so worth it and more. After one visit, this is my new #1 restaurant!"
    Dined on 1/16/2014
  • "Went with friends who have never been there before and we all enjoyed it. went during restaurant week and it was great. thanks as always to a great restaurant."
    Dined on 1/17/2014
  • "Although we have dined at Ruth Chris previously, this dining experience was part of our local Restaurant Week, so we picked from their "special menu" of the evening....same great food that is on the regular menu, just a slightly smaller portions., which were exactly the right portion size....enough that you were completely satisfied, but not so much that you wanted so wanted to finish your meal because it's that delicious but didn't have room. The food (filet with shrimp and pork with apples) was outstanding, perfectly cooked and presented and as always the service is impeccable. If you are looking for a place where the food is top notch and you want a pampered dining experience, this is the place."
    Dined on 1/15/2014
  • "Every staff we encountered were very professional and a pleasure to interact with. The meal we had was the restaurant week special. The filet was done perfect to the specifications and was delicious. Would return at a later date to enjoy the experience again"
    Dined on 1/14/2014
  • "Great steaks in a great setting. We went for our son's birthday and he loved the Kobe Tomakawk. My wide had the petipe filet and lonster tails and I had the Cowboy Ribeye. All were excellent as were the staff."
    Dined on 1/10/2014
  • "Ruth's continues to set the highest standard for quality of food, service, and elegance. This is a favorite restaurants that I visit and take guests to a few times each year. They never fail to impress, and create a sense of complete relaxation, and give diligent attention to every need."
    Dined on 12/6/2013
  • "The restaurant was very nice and food excellent, the only disappointment was a dress code was not in place. Going to a restaurant of this caliber it was quite disappointing to see so many diners wearing jeans and what I would consider inappropriate attire."
    Dined on 1/12/2014
  • "I've always avoided "chain" restaurants. In this case that would have been a mistake. Excellent steaks, great sides and a very good selection of wine by the glass. The servicee was superior."
    Dined on 1/10/2014
  • "Ruth's Chris has been our restaurant of choice when honoring special occasions. We have done so in Washington, D.C., San Diego. CA, Richmond, Va, San Juan, PR, and Virginia Beach, Va. Our only lament is that the onion rings have changed from those fried in original batter to those now fried in tempura batter. We no longer order them and that's too bad."
    Dined on 1/9/2014
  • "WE love Ruths Chris and go back there for all of our special occasions. Like birthdays!"

  • "My wife and I enjoyed dinner on New Year's Eve. Overall the food and service was very good to excellent. The restaurant was a bit noisier than usual and there were issues keeping the temperature of our dining room comfortable. We went from warm to cold as they tried to adjust and people at the table next to us had to put on coats. But the food and service were excellent and we had quite an enjoyable time over all."
    Dined on 12/31/2013
  • "I loved my first experience at Ruth's Chris. Our waiter was hilarious and very attentive. I would suggest going with another couple, as you can save a few bucks by sharing the sides. The steaks were cooked perfectly. Loved it!"
    Dined on 12/31/2013
  • "We had been going to Ruth Chris for over five years, mostly to celebrate my birthday. The other night we went because our friends from Germany send us a gift card to have dinner on them. They knew this is our favorite place for special occasion/romantic dinner date."
    Dined on 12/27/2013
  • "We visit Ruth's Chris at least once a quarter if not more. They have excellent food and service. It is pricey but worth it. Great for special occasions. Ask for Gaston! - he is an excellent waiter."
    Dined on 12/27/2013
  • "Always enjoy dining here. We usually bring our own wine. I order the filet and it is cooked to perfection served on a hot, and I do mean HOT, plate so the food does not lose temperature during your meal. Service is always excellent and I feel like the wait staff really do go out of their way to make the best suggestions and to be sure your meal is perfect. I highly recommend this to anyone who truly loves steaks and/or is celebrating a special day"

  • "We had a wonderful Partner's Christmas dinner at the Virginia Beach Ruth's Chris. The food could not have been better, the service was out of bounds good. We each shared a special moment in our lives that night and the staff made that possible. Thank you very much."
    Dined on 12/23/2013
  • "We have eaten at Ruth's Chris many times. This recent time was probably the worst experience we have ever had at Ruth's Chris. Not even the exceptional service from our server, Cal, could save the mediocre meal that we had. The steaks were not nearly as as high quality as ones we have had on previous visits. The appetizers were okay, at best. Salads were good. Desserts were average, nothing special at al. Disappointing. Since it was a special occasion meal, no one wanted to complain about the quality of our food while dining. It was only during the car ride home that we all discussed our meal and we all agreed that is was not the quality we expected or worth the price we paid. I think it will be a long time before we return."
