    We went for my wife’s birthday dinner. They greeted us with a sweet card for my wife and champagne for all of us … a very nice touch. The food was excellent from oysters and squash soup to our entrees of lamb chops and flank steak. The craft cocktails were creative and very tasty; the Rue version of an old fashioned is smooth and delectable. The service was superb; attentive and helpful with food selection. This has become one of our favorite restaurants. Gabby and Scott do an outstanding job!

    Our experience dining at  Ruth Chris is always a wonderful one. Upon arriving, we were greeted and seated by the friendly hostess. I had asked for a corner table by the window, so we could see the fabulous view of the bridge at night. Of course Ruth Chris accommodated us! Our waiter was amazing. He answered all our questions and went above and beyond for us. The young woman who helped serve at our table was also amazing. Both of them went above and beyond for us. The manager paid us a visit twice to ask if we needed anything. When our dinner arrived, our steak was cooked perfectly. The staff really made my husband‘s birthday a special one. Reasons like this are why we continue to dine at Ruth Chris several times a year. We enjoy it so much!
