Was not as good as the first time. Ordered fillet an shrimp. Filet was order medium was medium well. Bread was so hard we could hardly cut it. Asked for lemon with water never got the lemon. Other than that waiter was nice. Would not tell someone that it’s the greatest for the money.

Reservations for 7pm didn’t get seated until 730. Waitress dropped drink and spilled melted butter over other plates of food. Water glasses were never refilled, steaks were fatty and had to ask for someone to get the waitress for more drinks.

I have dinner here whenever I come to Mohegan Pennsylvania which is usually monthly. The service is excellent, they get to know you personally and are very attentive and friendly. The food quality is always consistently very good. Steaks are cooked specifically to your liking and have never been over or undercooked. Great wine list. Specialty drinks are generous in their pour and a great value at happy hour. Great ambience in the bar area (lounge) where you can sit at the bar(walk in’s are no problem) or reserve a high top or a booth.

The food is too notch. Being in this industry for years i will tell you when you order a drink it takes way toooooo long ! We must of waited 20 minutes for our drink. That should not take that long. I don’t know if it’s the bars fault or waiter but our waiter was on point i believe he was waiting for them. Also coffee took took long as well otherwise 4 stars

The experience started off with the hostess informing us we’d have an assistant waiter; which was fine. However, after the appetizer the they took all the silverware then brought the food out on what was described as 500 degree porcelain plate and told us to “be careful”; needless to say I burned the side of my hand by accident. I then had to go searching for a steak knife…. Also; my iced tea was also empty at one point and I had to ask for a refill. The steak was kinda tough and the potatoes seemed dry. Having eaten at other Ruth Chris’s this was the worst one by far. My bill was 220 and I tipped the guy 20 on card and 20 in cash.

Restaurant was clean and had live music in bar area. I ordered the large filet cut steak. It tasted very gamey and was actually a bit tough. Ive been to many Ruth’s Chris restaurants around the country and always loved the filets. They always melt in your mouth. This location maybe used a different ranch for their meats, or perhaps i just got an end cut that should have been made into chop meat. Either way the steak was sub par. The other guests i dined with had chicken and crab cakes which they said were excellent. The sides were also great . The mixed drinks were good with one exception. One drink wasn’t made correctly and didn’t taste as well as the first and third. I will be back to give them another try. Maybe just a fluke that i got a bad steak this time.

Love Ruths Chris. Always love going for a great steak. Love the filet!!! They remind us each and every time about the 500 degree hot plate when it comes out. We laugh every time they do as well. 🤣 Wish it didn’t cost over $200 bucks for two steaks and a couple drinks. Probably would come more often.
