    We had a wonderful dinner at Ruth Chris’s steakhouse in San Diego. There was an event going on in the area so parking was very tight but we use the valet and things were great. We had a wonderful waiter named Andrea who was very attentive and recommended an excellent red wine to have with our surf and turf meal.

    I have attended an annual family dinner here since 2010 and there has been a marked decline in service level in the past 4 years. At a white tablecloth, fine dining price point, the service was decidedly casual, haphazard, and disorganized. We were a table of 7 at a small round by a pillar and we were delivered 1 basket of bread and water. The salads were delivered before the wine and cocktails. There were missing sides that were delivered after the steaks. 1 salad came with the entree, though it was ordered as a starter. We had to ask for 2 missing sides more than twice while steaks grew cold. We were told that a potato would be comped, but it appeared on the bill. We took it out of our tip. The food is fine. But, had this been a business dinner rather than a family outing, I would have been terribly embarrassed. We will be looking for a new venue for next year.
