    I enjoyed a delicious dinner with my fiancé for our anniversary. They decorated the table which made us feel special. The food and drinks were out of this world per usual! I got a filet with shrimp. Everything was cooked to perfection! 10/10 would always recommend Ruth Chris

    Not the Ruth Chris that used to be…. The Quality of food was below average. Very disappointing. We were very much looking forward to the exceptional food we’ve experienced at Ruth Chris in the past.. However this no longer the case. This establishment has gone way down hill. I would suggest going to one of the other high end steak restaurants for a high quality meal. Also, Valet service is no longer offered. On a positive note Our server was excellent.

    We booked this reservation to participate in Dine Out Boston. When we arrived, we were told that Ruth's Chris did not honor the Dine Out Boston specials on Saturday. It did not indicate this on the website listing for Ruth's Chris or on the menu that I printed out. We asked for a manager who was going to offer us complimentary drinks, but we did not feel the gesture was necessary, as we were deciding to finish our drinks and probably leave, when the manager said that he would honor the special. Our waitress brought over the menu (which still didn't say any exclusions about Saturday night, in fact listed the last date of Dine Out Boston which happened to be Saturday, March 15th. ) The meal was as expected, excellent.
