Been to Ruth’s Chris a few times but this time it was the worst experience we have had, the waitress seemed to be new and we kept having to ask for refills and other needs and the food was ok at best not sure what happened that day. The only reason it bugged us so much was because we hyped the place up to be able to celebrate my father-in-laws birthday we were all disappointed.

My husband took me to dinner for my birthday. Our server, Kohl, was excellent! He always had a smile on his face as though he really enjoyed his job. Our steaks were cooked to our request. The Caesar salad was delicious, too. The overall dinner was great. We definitely will be going there again very soon.

I've eaten here many times, and I must say, while the food was great, the service was probably some of the worst I've encountered in a long time. The waiter was basically non-existent. He took our order and then pretty much disappeared for the remainder of the evening. Although I could see him wandering around the restaurant and checking at other tables, he never bothered to check up on us, as most good waiters do. Also, there was a 35-minute wait between the appetizers and the main courses, for no apparent reason. When I asked the waiter why the food was taking so long, he shrugged and didn't try to make the situation better. Dreadful service from a dreadful waiter.

We went for Mother's Day. Always a crazy time. The people at the front desk were not inviting, had sour expressions, never smiled and they were even rude to each other. Once we got seated, all was good. Our waiter was great. Food came out fast and HOT. It was a wonderful experience. I understand that good help is hard to find - but to many, the first impression is everything and this one wasn't great.

We had a great meal at Ruth's Chris. After a last minute change of plans on Mother's Day, we found a reservation on Open Table, arrived a bit early, had enough time for a delicious martini, and were seated. The bartenders provided excellent service, the host and managers were really hustling, and our server was awesome too. Very good food and service all around.

Our waitress Devon was not very attentive. After giving her our entire order with the promise it would come out on time, she mixed us up with another party. Our meal was served much later than new customers arrived and were fed. When finally finished, she brought us the wrong bill and told us the others got away paying less. We calculated our bill and found that we were over charged by more than $20. When confronted she brought us our bill and said the coffee was free and hoped we would come back. It really ruined our evening that started so well in the bar with mint juleps and a wonderful bartender.

When it’s my choice for a special day, I will always choose Ruth Chris. I am never disappointed here. Came here for an early Mother’s Day dinner. Was able to bring my son & my future daughter in law as well. It was their first time at a Ruth Chris & they LOVED it. The food is such high quality & cooked to perfection. We shared the Lobster Mac n Cheese, the Augratin potatoes & roasted Brussel Sprouts. Yum yum. I had & always will have the Rib Eye. My son had the Filet crusted with blue cheese. My daughter in law had he garlic stuffed chicken breast. They called it the hidden gem & it was. No dessert, too full. But thank you Ruth Chris for always being awesome

Driving from Scottsdale to LA we decided to stop for dinner at Ruth Chris in Palm Desert. This was a great decision as we were hungry and had steak on our minds. There are several steak restaurants in the area but we wanted “old school” ambiance. We were not disappointed. The food and service was great and the cocktails were superb!

Ruth’s Chris never disappoints in the quality and preparation of a meal. Disappointed in the service. We were there over 2.5 hours and both of us were tired of sitting.. We had to settle for an early reservation and the first ones seated. We think the waiter may have forgotten to submit our order or the kitchen lost it!! Once we asked the server to check with the kitchen on our order we received it within 10-15 minutes. Service far below standards of a high end steakhouse.. There was plenty of staff and about 50% capacity.

I would say average, steak wasn’t flavorful. Service was so so. Slow to be precise. Even at the start, bread and water took forever. Wasn’t overly busy imo. Polite water, but that’s expected at this level resturant.
