    Cons: It was 56f no heat very cold, the waitress totally forgot about us sitting outside

    Summary: We had just decided to make this our weekly dinner spot when we got the worst waitress I've ever had at a nice place. First she didn't ask if this was anyones first time so she could do the Ruth Chris history thing, Next she kept mixing up the very

    Pros: Steak with LOTS of butter, Sides, Wine.
    They keep the lower class out of site 
    Cons: Sometimes long wait on Friday/Saturday with reservations (especially in Beverly Hills) 

    Summary: The best place for steak. Keep one thing in mind --> If you think paying $12 for a steak is a good price, then do not go to Ruth Chris; it is NOT for you. This is a place where people pay good ($$$$$) money for good food. Expect to pay $150.00 for two

    Pros: Complementary valet parking.
    Cons: Overpriced average streak

    Summary: I can say that the waiters were very good. Our appetizers arrive promptly and they were quick to refill our drinks. The main course however did take a while to get to the table. I was disappointed in the appetizers. I've had better appetizers at other

    Pros: Steak
    Cons: Everything Else

    Summary: I went to Ruth Chris for Thanksgiving because they were doing a special day. Do not go there for anything but steak. The food was okay and expensive. Was dissapointed. Steak is not the best either. I live in Philadelphia and we have Morton's,

    Pros: Service & food
    Cons: That the evening ended

    Summary: For our Anniversary and we couldn't have made a better choice. The atmosphere,service (non-snobby) and dreamy melt in your mouth steaks were WONDERFUL! I recommend the expresso martini (which they fill the glass). And a must have, the crab cakes filled

    Pros: Spacious table.
    Cons: I feel like I was conned (no pun intended)

    Summary: This was my first visit to a Ruth's Chris Steak House in Fairfax Virginia because of the extensive advertising I had heard and its general reputation. A most disappointing dinner and wine for five cost about $487 with tip. I think this restaurant gets

    Pros: Location
    Cons: Many, see review text.

    Summary: Major issues: Sloppy and very slow service before, during, and after all parts of the meal. First appetizer came out right away, then salad came out 25 minutes later. Clearly they forgot about us for a while. Salad was awful. Also, they don't seem

    Pros: Might be good for a business dinner
    Cons: Not the least bit romantic. Food was average at best! Service was mediocre.

    Summary: Wow, what a downer. Service was below average. The steak was undercooked and DROWNING in butter. The shrimp was ok and the lighting was not right. I was very disappointed and would not recommend this place to anyone. THe wine and the company was the

    Pros: steak, service
    Cons: price, ambience

    Summary: RC's is not known for its subtle menu. All of the entrees are manly and substantive. The RC at 755 West Big Beaver in Troy, MI is no exception. The service was outstanding, perhaps the best I have ever experienced at RCs. My crab cakes were not as good

    Pros: Great food, service, atmosphere, well everything is just so amazing!
    Cons: This isn't a con, but the meals are served with no side dishes

    Summary: Steak so good, you'll never be the same again. Even though it's a little bit pricey, for special occasions, any other restaurant is a waste of time. I know some writers aren't crazy about the service, but in Woodland Hills, you get treated like a
