Restaurants near Knolls Park

Food was good but extremely overpriced. Wait staff was very attentive. Tables were tucked in very tight so not much privacy. I really like this steakhouse and have been numerous times before. Perhaps it was just extremely crowded with the holiday and the environment felt different but for some reason I felt a little abused at paying $600 to feed 5 people…no drinks involved.

The food and the service was outstanding. I did give it 3 stars on ambience only because, when I made the reservation I didn’t get to choose the main dining room or the upstairs bar area. I have been to Ruth’s 3 times but never upstairs. While my guest and I were enjoying a nice dinner, I see three individuals wearing ball caps, and another individual wearing sweatpants/sweatshirt. This set me back for a minute as I thought Ruth’s was a fine dining restaurant. I did find out that the upstairs is a bit more casual. This is my opinion and mine only. If I go to a fine dining restaurant and get dressed up for the evening, I do not except to see people in ball caps, sweatpants, leggings, etc. I do understand that restaurants do not want to turn away guests, but you do have the right to appeal to the dress code. Or at least ask the quest who made the restaurant if they would like the dining room or casual area. This was my friends first time at Ruth’s and I was kinda disappointed. But again, my opinion only. Everyone has a right to choose for themselves. Thank you

Always a great experience. We love going to firebirds . Friendly staff and excellent food

10/10 recommend Brussel Sprout appetizer is a must have! Great Sangrias & Martinis! From steak, to pasta, to salmon & burgers, not one person in our group was disappointed with their meal!
