    Root & Bone is always excellent! The food and drinks are consistently created and served with care, and the service is top-notch (including Lindsey on our latest trip!). We've been to dinner and brunch several times, and it has become one of our neighborhood favorites.

    I had never eaten there, whereas everyone else in our party of eight had. Breads, stuffed mushrooms, potato pancakes, numerous sausages, chambord raspberry cake--all superb. The hot sauce that accompanied the bread will knock your socks off. Have water handy. An attribute that we appreciate is that there is a large dining area where the acoustics are good, keeping the noise level relatively low. We live about 30 minutes away. It's worth the drive and we'll be back soon.

    Ruth’s Chris is our go to for special occasions for a reason and this visit did not let us down. The food is always outstanding. Tender steaks, fresh salads, and fries as crispy as potato chips. You can’t leave hungry. What makes this place our go to however, isn’t the food. The service is outstanding every single time. Our server, Jimmy, was perfectly attentive. Our drinks never ran dry, our bread never ran out, and he was at our table before we even knew we needed him. He has been our server previously and he delivers consistently phenomenal service that makes us look forward to our next special night out. I can’t recommend Ruth’s Chris highly enough for anyone looking for a fantastic meal in a romantic space with outstanding service.
