   Best Ruth’s Chris I’ve been too: great food, server, and ambience. Hats off to management for letting people just relax, eat their dinner, and visit without rushing them out for the next customer.

   Ruth's Chris Wailea is a pleasant place with a consistent presentation. Wait staff is friendly. New waiters follow a script that markets high end of menu. Annoying, but not offensive. We like ribeye. If we don't make a strong point each time they will serve a ribeye with no cap. And part of the filet is always cut off to make a strange square cut. The steak itself is usually cooked correctly (we like medium rare and get that 80% of the time). Baked potato, asparagus, and spinach are classic and consistently well done sides. Same goes for desserts. The wine list is varied and reasonable among Maui restaurants (all are 3X or more of retail cost). Typical price of meal with cocktail and wine is $150.00 per person for us at Ruth's Chris, not including tip. That is considerably below boutique steakhouse price, making Ruth's Chris an excellent value choice.

   Fabulous dining experience at Ruth Chris. Our server Brian attended to our every need. Food was delicious. Try the chopped salad. It is divine.

   Birthday celebration and catch up with an old friend that went perfect. The food was very tasty and a good amount to share, the drinks were tasty and the service was great. You may know this already, bring your pocketbook.

   Service was sub par. We requested sparkling water from the bus boy when we were seated, It took 25 minutes to arrive. The water made his first appearance 15 minutes after we were seated. The sides we ordered with our steaks arrived cold, we sent them back and got cold sides delivered again, nobody came to check. The server left our side plates with the cold sides on the table and never replaced them. Dirty silverware from our first course was left on the table for the entire meal. It was more like the service you’d expect from a visit to Outback Steakhouse. The steaks were cooked properly but that’s about all I’d say positive about our experience. We hadn’t been to Ruth’s in a few years and not planning on returning

   We had a wonderful dinner at Ruth Chris. The chicken was very large - we took half home- and the side dishes are also ample. My husband had the sea bass. Our waiter and all the staff were very welcoming and did a great job.
