This is the second Ruth Chris location I have visited. Upon walking inside the restaurant the hostess area, it immediately felt claustrophobic. The small entrance split the restaurant in two: dining room and bar/lounge.
We were walk-ins, looking to have dinner in the dining room. We asked to get on the waiting list, but three separate times the hostess pressured us to go into the bar/lounge area. Well, eventually I gave in since the dining room didn't look much different, other than the fact that it had white tablecloths on the tables and a television with a cheesy video on loop of a fireplace.
After being seated, it was fine. The service was average, difficulty with getting items out in a speedy manner, but for a steakhouse dinner, we don't mind taking it slow. Cocktails were average. The wedge salad was quite bitter, it was missing an element of sweetness to round out the flavors. We also ordered house salad with ranch, which was fine, lettuce covered in dressing. We ordered the stuffed chicken, as well as the chef fish selection and shrimp, which was salmon tonight. Potatoes au gratin on
The side.
Entrées came out. OK, I would rank it slightly above cheesecake factory quality. I would describe Ruth Chris food as two dimensional in flavor, it seems like something is missing. The potatoes au gratin Very sweet for some reason, maybe it was the cheese, but not very appetizing or deep/ rich savory taste we were looking for.
At the end of the day, spent almost $200 for date night dinner. in my opinion, there are better local steakhouse options, and certainly better chains as well. However, I think this is good option for more casual groups or takeout.
