    Was a bit disappointed, I’ve been to many Ruth Chris in the past and always had a great meal. My “Ruth fav” steak I ordered had no flavor at all. My asparagus was ok.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish! The service was top-tier—attentive, professional, and friendly. Our steaks were perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. The sides and desserts were just as impressive. The atmosphere was elegant yet comfortable, making it a perfect spot for a special night out. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back!

    The whole experience was top notch. Ruth Chris Steakhouse has always been a consistent fine dining establishment and the Destin location is no exception. My granddaughter’s birthday was exceptional and Shane, our waiter, was the best. Thank you to the whole team for a great experience.

    Food and service was good. Very sad that Ruth's Chris has taken away the harvest salad from their menu. We had ordered dessert, and it was very slow getting to us because of the back up in the kitchen so they gave it to us free which was a very nice gesture.
