We wanted a quiet and relaxing dining experience for two with good food. Ruth’s Chris delivered! At first we were seated right next to a large table of guests talking business. After a couple of minutes of that, we asked to be moved to a table/booth that was quieter. We were graciously moved to a more serene table. What followed was an excellent dinner: drinks, the seared ahi tuna appetizer that we shared - so good! We shared an excellent Caesar salad; the staff split it for us in the kitchen. We each selected the fish special: halibut with lobster and sauce. It was delicious! We closed our dinner by sharing the rich and decadent chocolate sin cake and a decaf Ruth’s Chris coffee dessert beverage. Yum! We really appreciated our server, Young’s knowledge of her restaurant’s offerings and her gracious service. Her timing with getting our selections to us was excellent, letting us feel like honored guests and not just another table to quickly turn over. We had a truly relaxing dinner that was much needed. Thank you to Young, the staff and the managers!

We are always impressed with the service, food quality and the overall experience. Tonight’s bill did blow us away, but who am I, I pay for the service I don’t buy, hire, or pay the overhead! Thank you thank you thank you !

We’ve eaten here quite a few times over the years visiting our daughters while in college. They love steak! We know we are going to get a wonderful meal- very consistent. Sides are generous portions & make great leftovers. We’ve only tried the fillet. Always tender & taste great Ambiance is relaxing and great to catch up with family. Staff is attentive and service has been excellent. Will keep going back!

Service was good but a little bit slow. Ribeye and Lamb was under seasoned. Adding extra salt at the table helped, but not the same.
