    Always a great time at Ruth’s Chris. Delicious food, great service and pretty decor. We love sitting in the booths. We were celebrating my son’s birthday. Thank you Sara for making our evening perfect.

    Being Valentine’s weekend, the restaurant as expected was very bustling and packed with parties, so the wait for food was unusually long. But the food was still exquisite particularly the vegetables. Overall, it was an enjoyable meal and evening.

    Service was either too busy at or understaffed. Food was good but not great. Lobster tail was small and over salted. One steak was perfect and one over cooked but tasted fine. One side served hot and was lukewarm. Restaurant was very busy.

    We honored my step son’s 13th birthday. The staff went above and beyond to make him feel celebrated and special. We’ve been loyal customers to this location and will continue doing so. Highly recommend. Special mention: MJ at the front desk. She was pleasant, bubbly, attentive, and a pleasure to be greeted by.

    Ruth’s Chris handled the Valentine’s Day crowd very well. They were about 30-45 min behind on reservations so we sat at the bar and waited for our table. The bartender was great and the All Star Weekend activities were playing on the TV. Once our table was ready, the great service continued with Jim. The food was delicious and the cocktails were also great, made the wait worth it. Will definitely return to this location on a non holiday evening.
