Editorial Review for Ruth's Chris Steak House – by Tara de Lis

In Short
This offshoot of a popular New Orleans hangout for politicians features decor of dark woods and comfortable booths, with a separate bar scene. Choice cuts of custom-aged beef arrive in sizzling butter on 500-degree plates. The menu also offers chicken, pork and seafood entrees along with Creole appetizers like shrimp remoulade. Family-style sides include gargantuan onion rings, creamed spinach and various styles of potatoes. Traditional homemade desserts like cheesecake and bread pudding conclude the meal.

Look Good

It's not on the menu, but consider ordering your steak "Oscar style," which means it's topped with asparagus, crab cakes and bearnaise sauce.

User Reviews for Ruth's Chris Steak House

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

When you walk in you immediately feel the ambieance. You are promptly seated and assisted by several waiters, it seems as if there is one for every part of the meal. Refreshments, silverware etc. The Menu choice is Good but not great. I don't remember why I was dissapointed with the menu but it was lacking something. I ordered the Ribeye and my Wife ordered the Chicken both were phenomenal! The sides were large enough for 2 and I tell you the truth, that had to have been the best Coke I have ever had. Great for a nice quite dinner!

Pros: The food is fantastic and the service is spectacular.

We go here a lot to celebrate special occassions. We love the food and the service. You must try the sweet potato caserole. I wasn't a fan of sweet potato until I tried this one. It is delicious! We recommend you make reservations. We always do and we request our favorite waiter becuase he knows just what we like. He makes sure we're taken care of. The prices are pretty expensive but if you don't mind spending a little more for quality then this is the place to try.

Pros: great ambience, great food, and great service

Cons: none
