My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. Our evening was fantastic. The food was outstanding as usual. A special shout out to our servers, Ryan and Ross. They were personable, attentive and did an amazing job. I will be sure to ask for them on our return visit.

The service & food were excellent but the temperature of the room was too cold; we were in the enclosed porch & the ventilation was blowing cold air until we were leaving & the air blowing out seemed warmer; most of the women had to keep their coats on. I like the bread with pieces of fruit in it and they have a very good Caesar salad.

Celebrating our 3rd year anniversary & Ruth Chris did not disappoint. From the valet parking, to our outstanding server, Morgan, the service was on point. The meal was exceptional. We both enjoyed the price fix menu of salad, 6oz filet, veggie & cheese cake. The evening was memorable,

Connor took great care of us. Food was perfectly cooked. Seasoning was spot on. Definitely going back. Our table ordered (2) 8 oz fillets and (2) 16 oz New York strips. We had onion soup, caesar salad, house salad, broccoli and string fries. For dessert, cheese cake, ice cream crème boule and bread pudding. It was a great night at Ruth Chris!

The only thing that was bad was that my girl and I wanted the cowboy ribeye. The tomahawk, cowboy, and porterhouse steak were gone because of Valentine's weekend. We ended up getting the t-bone steak. The food was delicious!! Leah was our server. She did a phenomenal job making sure we were catered to, and her service was second to none. Overall, a fantastic evening!!
