    We had a wonderful post holiday meal at Ruth’s Chris in Princeton. We have been to this location several times and hadn’t been in awhile. The food is always great but sometimes the service at this location has been off, but not last night. Our server Sarah was excellent! She was friendly, very professional and super efficient. Our filets were cooked to perfection and the sides were delicious as well. It was a great experience and we will be back.

    We loved our early Christmas Eve dinner! The cassoulet was exceptionally tasty, and the angel hair pasta was delish. Our waiter was very helpful, our table pleasant and private: everyone agreed that One53 was a perfect place for our special holiday meal. We’re here from Philadelphia for a few days, and so glad that we are!
