    We had a wonder server who paid attention to every detail. Food was great, steak was cooked perfectly. We did the 3 course meal and it was the right amount of food.

    have never seen such a messy, unorganized bar — took 25 mins to get a dirty martini and there were only 6 people sitting at the bar. towels, unwashed drinkware, random garnishes, sticky bar top — def was not a usual RCSH experience. food and service in the dining room was typical top notch

    Our experience was great. I highly suggest you include your preferences when placing your reservations. Our server knew exactly what we needed when we arrived, and everything was taken care of precisely. My son thoroughly enjoyed his birthday dinner. And my wife, who almost never orders steak anywhere, enjoyed every bite. You guys get extra bonus points for that one. Mark

    Food was standard for Ruth’s, very well done. However, if I could give zero stars for service I would. Worst service I’ve ever received at ANY restaurant, much less a Ruth’s Chris. Bad location if you’re looking for a nice dinner in town. DO NOT GO
