    We were seated promptly in a perfect seat by the window. The brunch was amazing with a wide variety of selections. We tested nearly every item. Lol. 2 hours to enjoy the brunch so we weren’t rushed. Our waitress was attentive and saw to our needs (refilled drinks, water, coffee). This was our first time for the brunch after several dinners. I have no doubt we’ll be back for more brunches.

    Great meal as always! Love the food here and will certainly be back. I had the pork chop and risotto special which was fantastic. Others in our group also loved their choices. We brought a bottle of wine and the corkage fee was $25. It was a bit on the loud side for a table of 8 to hear each other, but in a way that's part of the experience.

    We had a great experience celebrating our 25th Wedding Anniversary last night. Our server Ron is the best. He made us feel special and he was very attentive. RC gave us a complimentary crème brûlée (which I picked) for dessert with a Happy Anniversary writing. One of the best crème brûlée I have tried! Reason why Ruth's Chris is one of our fave restaurants to dine in.🥂🥰

    Food & service is always outstanding. We are repeat customers and the only downside this time is that they seated a table of 7 in the middle of small room with 2-top tables & cozy booths which escalated the noise level in the room, and we couldn’t wait to leave 😣
