    So disappointed! Loved Rutledge in the past, however, last night our $400 meal was absolutely horrible. 2 of us ordered filets and 2 ordered the bone in NY strip. The filets were horribly over cooked and tasteless! The NY strips were unbelievable crazy thin, and again lacked flavor. We all agreed worst steaks we’ve ever had. Will not be going back! So sad, shame on you Rutledge!!

    The restaurant wasn't busy at all for an early Saturday lunch. Wonderful French Dip (but expensive) but the burger was way undercooked. No offer to cook a little more. The waiter said he would remove it from the ticket, but the manager would only let him remove half of it. French Dip, water, tax and tip was $36.00. Too expensive to frequent very often.

    Came here looking for something different from a chain restaurant. It'll be a one time experience. The food tasted ok but was way overpriced for what you received. I could get more food for half the price if I went to Outback. The guy singing in the bar was quite loud making conversation at the table a little difficult. Service was the best part of the experience

    We went for birthday dinner. Party of 4, Destiny was our server. She was attentive, helpful and just the right amount of friendly. The menu was eclectic enough to suit everyone's palate. We ordered a sushi appetizer and the entrees were meatloaf, ribeye and beef shank all had delicious sides. The drinks were also spot on. Overall a great nite out!

    Let me start off by saying the service here is great, Claire was wonderful. But beyond that, the food was sub par at best for the bill. My biggest complaint is they seared the prime rib. I'm sorry, you just dont do that. It then becomes a tough weird ribeye you didnt ask for. IF the kitchen doesnt have the cut asked for, just say so, don't ruin a perfectly good piece of prime rib. The filet was supposed to have a caramelized onion sauce, We saw no caramelized onions but it had some weird matchstick potato or onion things all over it (honestly even trying them, couldnt tell you what they were, they just didn't belong). It was lacking in any salt, but covered in a seasoning that overpowered it as well. It sucks to say these things because they clearly have potential, but those things made us decide we won't be returning unfortunately.

    We enjoyed our experience very much. The drinks were great and so was the fillet and the Yaki tuna. Service was outstanding and very attentive. Overall, it was a great evening.

    Food is good. But it is irritating to be told you'll be charged $25 if you don't cancel within 24 hours of the reservations. Sometimes, things change on the day of the reservation. Also, it is beyond irritating to have a 3% fee added to your bill if you use a credit card. That should be included as part of doing business. It seems like soaking the customer for more money.
