Celebrated a birthday here recently. From entering to leaving it was the experience that is needed and should be expected always when dining at such an establishment like Ruth's Chris. It was fantastic customer service. The food is almost always never going to miss. The customer service is what usually can be hit or miss. The host had great communication when we were early and waiting for seating. The manager was on point. Our waiter Marty was calm, professional, knowledgable, and attentive. The wait staff didn't miss a beat. Water filled and bread filled without hesitation. We have been celebrating almost all out big moments here for about 16 years. This experience is pretty consistent with Ruth's Chris. Thank you again!

OpenTable reservation was for 10 pm even though restaurant closed at 10 pm. They were able to quickly take our order before the kitchen completely closed. Appreciate the staff being able to accommodate even though there seemed to be a discrepancy between OpenTable and the restaurant hours.

Food and service were excellent. We had the steak frites and the mussels. The texture of the fries were the best I have ever had. Their bread and butter are amazing. We will definitely come back to try other items. It is rare to have a restaurant do everything so well. I hope they do not lower their standards.
