    Father’s Day dinner turned into a disaster. We waited over an hour for food, drinks, and even checks—nothing came. Some guests began walking out in frustration, and management offered no explanation or accountability. What was supposed to be a special celebration turned into a huge disappointment. Completely unacceptable service on a day that should’ve been memorable for all the right reasons.

    I understand that it was Fathers Day and super busy but the restaurant was totally disappointing. We eat here often and the food and service are always superb. Yesterday there was an obvious shortage of staff (only two waiters for the huge room). It took forever to get a waiter and even longer to get food. The food was not up to its usual standard which was really a let down especially at the price!! The waiter and manager were apologetic but that doesn’t excuse the bad experience caused by poor planning and management. We will reconsider Ruth Chris as a choice in the future.

    Our steaks were way overcooked and had to be sent back. For a restaurant that specializes in Steak, I was shocked. Medium orders came out well done. In addition, It doesn’t appear the steaks were rested. Calamari appetizer, although flavorful was also sent back. Way too wet and drenched in sauce, when you do expect a little crunchy. Ahi Tuna appetizer was spot on. Lobster Mac and Cheese was also very runny. The server was great and he sent more Ahi Tuna and Mac and cheese to the table while waited for new steaks. Overall, not impressed with my first dinner dining experience at Ruth’s Chris. A 300 dollar tab w tip. Honestly, I could get a similar or better steak at Outback for much less. @Ruth’s Chris Crystal City location.
