The bar is great...knowledgeable bartenders who mix a great Manhattan. The veal osso bucco ravioli appetizer is delicious. The petite fillet is served surrounded by butter and cooked perfectly. Pricey, but worth it for a special occasion More

We ate here before going to the theater on a Saturday night. It was very busy, but the service was excellent. Steaks are wonderful here. We were glad to find a quiet place for dinner since the other restaurants in the area were noisy and very crowded. More

Been to many Ruth's Chris all over, always a great Filet. Not very adventurous a choice but sometimes you just want something you can be sure of. More

I have eaten at Ruths Chris all over the country for 30 years.It has always been reliable when in a strange city and you wanted a good steak. I was in New York and had never tried the Ruths there. New York is a tough restaurant market. You have to be 100% on your game 24/7. I had to walk... More

Unfortunately I have a client who's taste in steak houses is so poor that I wish I could just send him a check and let him take himself out to this; one in a chain, restaurant. They advertise on all the airlines which is where he saw the ad. I tried my best to take him to Luger's, The Holmstead,... More
