Description: Welcome to Ruth's Chris Steak House. As founder Ruth Fertel used to say, "If you've ever had a filet this good, welcome back." We take steak seriously, but we're also serious about making sure you have a good time. So you won't find the stodgy, uptight attitude you might find at other steak houses. Our SouthPark location, created in the classic Southern style, features a spacious dining room and private dining areas. Surrounded by dark hardwoods and artisan tiling, you'll feel as if you're back in New Orleans. All beef is USDA Prime, prepared in 1800 degree broilers and served on 500 degree plates, and all accoutrements inspired by Ruth's New Orleans heritage. Let us know of any specific requests for an evening with that special someone, and we'll take care of the details. Life's too short to eat anywhere else.

Okay, you have a big expense account. Ruth's Chris is the place to go if you like steak and potatoes. There is something to be said for simplicity; but not at exorbitant prices and snooty country waiters. Its a great steak --- but its just a great piece of meat. The asparagus were overcooked, potatoes --- well they were just... More

I would give 5 stars, except a filet swimming in butter just ain't right! Sorta defeats the taste of a good steak.

My husband and I had a wonderful meal at Ruth's Chris in Uptown Charlotte this past weekend. We began with cocktails in the bar and a delicious tuna appetizer. Followed by dinner in the dining room which consisted of lobster and a trio of petit filets, with a couple of side dishes. This meal was everything we were expecting and... More

We returned to the Southpark location during restaurant week, and were amazed to see just how well a team could handle the pressure. The owner Jeff is clearly very proud of what he has created, and he should be. The team that took care of us was Sarah, Noel, and Hunter. We felt like we were the only people in... More

During our 1/22/13 visit the food at Ruth's Chris was outstanding as always. However service was not. After we were asked if we would like wine with our dinner, and told the staff we did not, they immediately removed the wine glasses from our table. As she removed my glass she dropped it on the floor behind me. While the... More

Sat at the bar for a drink and then went to the dining room for dinner. I was very impressed with the staff, from the hostesses at the door, to the wait staff. All were friendly but very professional. Enjoyed the food. My wife had the filet and lobster and I had the NY strip. Enjoyed the shrimp cocktail a... More

We visited Ruth's Chris on a Saturday night at 8:00 p.m., and we should've known something was up when the place was half empty. We had a drink at the bar first; the bartender was nice but seemed a little overwhelmed and slow. Once we were seated, we waited forever for our server to come over. We were just about... More

I enjoy a steak now and again, but I just don't know why this place is held in such high asteem. It's dark decor just doesn't do it for me. And the idea of cooking my steak in butter is a turn off (though I know that is their signature thing!) Frankly, there are so many other choices in the... More

It's not always about the service, to me, it is the food, the atmosphere and the service that would make me come back to a restuarant. I had the displeasure of eating at Ruth's Chris which is supposed to be a fine dining resturant and here are my comments about my experience - 1. We were a party of 4... More
