- JJoseVIPLos Angeles •12 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe had a very nice dinner celebrating my wife’s birthday. The food was excellent as was the service from Danny. The soup of the day was French onion and it could’ve been better. It wasn’t warm enough even though the ramekin was very hot.More infoRuth's Chris Steak House - IrvinePrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Irvine•4.6
