Profile

A steak doused with butter and delivered to a fiery-hot plate, butter sizzling, is the centerpiece of this successful upscale chain's take-no-prisoners march east across the country. The steak—and, for iconoclasts, the inevitable chops, chicken, and lobster—is served in a series of connected, muted, and wood-paneled dining rooms. Serious wines, too. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

My boyfriend and I ate dinner here last weekend and had quite a wonderful experience. The decor is very warm and welcoming, especially with the holiday decorations up. The hostess was very friendly and had us seated right away in a cozy corner of the main dining room. Our server was attentive and knowledgable and was able to help us pick out great sides to go with our entress as well as recommend a few drinks to go with our order as well. All of the food was superb!! We had a wonderful, leisurely meal and did not feel rushed at any time. Upon exiting we given a warm farewell- a wonderufl way to end our dining experience. I will definitely be asking to go back here for our next big occasion!

Par for a steakhouse

Had a bachelor party at Ruths Chris this past weekend. Upon arrival, I noticed that the space is pretty huge, dimly lit, and pretty much everything I would expect from a high end steakhouse. Having the reputation precede it, I had fairly high expectations and they were pretty much met. The bill was pretty high for one person, which included a 3 course meal and 3 hour open bar. I must say though that it was one of the best steaks I have had to date. It was right up there with BLT, except I enjoyed BLT much more due to their sauce selection and better side dishes. Overall a very good meal, but the cost was too high for what I ended up with.
