    Ruth’s Chris was actually our second restaurant in one night. We started our night out at Saluda‘s to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. I won’t go into great detail but it did not live up to our expectations of fine dining and worthy of celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. So while finishing up dinner at that other restaurant, I made reservations for Ruth’s Chris. When making the reservations on OpenTable I selected that we were celebrating our anniversary. Upon arriving at the hostess stand, I told the hostess we had reservations, and gave her my name. Sara immediately wished us a happy anniversary, and welcomed us to the restaurant and thanked us for choosing them to celebrate our anniversary with them. The manager, Justin, was standing there and he too wished us an happy anniversary and thanked us for choosing them to celebrate our special day. Sara told us she would set a table for us, and be right back to walk us to the table. She walked us to the table and she had put confetti on the table for us. It’s the small things and the thoughtful things that matter. Sara was very polite and very thoughtful. When greeted by our server, Kalief, he immediately welcomed us, wished us a happy anniversary, and thanked us for choosing to celebrate with them. Throughout the evening we were constantly made to feel extremely special and we’re very happy that we chose to come to Ruth’s Chris steakhouse to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary, even after eating some our food at Saluda’s. The food was great, the service was great, the ambience was great, and our overall experience was absolutely amazing. We will definitely be returning to Ruth’s Chris in the future. And I honestly hope we are able to have Justin, Kalief, and Sara at the restaurant when we do.

    Thank you for your 5-star review! That definitely sounds like a great night out! I'm thrilled to hear that Sara, Justin, and the rest of the team took such great care of you and helped to make your special night even more special--especially after such a rocky start to the evening elsewhere! We do indeed appreciate that you chose to celebrate with us, and we look forward to another wonderful visit soon! Happy 25th Anniversary!! Megan Cromwell, Director of Guest Relations

    Service was beyond great! Christopher did everything to make sure our anniversary dinner was perfect. The pork chop was about half the size compared to our last time. The Ribeye, cooked perfectly but had more fat than what I'd expect for the cost of the steak. We received a complimentary appetizer for our special occasion which was BBQ Shrimp. The shrimp were great, but didn't taste any type of bbq. Overall the service was great, but food wasn't worth the total we paid. It's nice for special occasions, but probably only once every couple of years if that.

    Thank you for your review, James! I am thrilled to hear that Christopher took great care of you for your celebration dinner! However, I am disappointed that the food did not live up to your expectations. As you know, our high-quality menu items are what we're known best for, & I do apologize that we didn't deliver on that reputation with neither your pork chop nor your ribeye. I would value the opportunity to speak with you further and personally apologize. Please feel free to give me a call at your convenience. Megan Cromwell, Director of Guest Relations (864) 248-1723

    I had a group of six and overall the food was good. My mom had the stuffed chicken which lacked stuffing. We informed the manager when he came around to ask how was everything but we now know from the interaction that it must just be part of policy or process to ask that question. We told him everything was good but the chicken didn't seem to have the stuffing. His exact response was "I will go check to see if the other chickens have the stuffing", he walked away and never returned. That was odd. Next we were charged a large party gratuity on a party of 6. That was indeed questionable. Lastly this restaurant has a huge gnat and flies issue. I've not visited the restaurant in some time now because of the issue. I decided to give it another try for my husband's birthday and noticed the same issue. The server was great, the majority of our food was good but overall value is lacking. We won't be returning.

    The food is not worth the price you pay. I can't believe that the price I paid for a steak doesn't come with a side. The steak wasn't that good.

    Service was not the best. Staff was very friendly, but had to ask for table to be cleared of dirty dishes between courses, had to ask for plates for appetizer, had to ask for utensils to dish out family style sides. Brussel spouts were over done and hard. Had dessert but was never asked if we wanted coffee. Overall service not up to the cost or level of Ruth Chris standards. Although a sign eas posted entering the dining about proper attire, such as business casual it was totally ignored. Presently not sure about repeat visits, although the steaks were excellent, overall the cost somewhat not justified.

    Ruth's Chris Steak House - ColumbiaResponded on July 31, 2023

    Thank you for the feedback, Gary. I am disappointed to hear where we faltered in our service and the quality of food. Attention to detail is something that we try to encourage in all areas of our dining experience, so I will be sure to discuss this point with our staff. I'd be happy to speak with you directly and personally apologize, so please don't hesitate to reach out if we can do anything else for you. Megan Cromwell, Director of Guest Relations (864) 248-1723

    I had my birthday dinner at Ruth she Chris and it was the worst experience I've ever had in any fine dining restaurant. My waitress was awful. My party had to go to the bar themselves to get drinks because of waitress was a no show. Everyone's food came out warm and not hot complained to two managers about one waitress and she was never switched out for another waitress. I've dined at Ruth Chris on many occasions and never had this experience.
