| - We visited Ruth's Chris on a Saturday night at 8:00 p.m., and we should've known something was up when the place was half empty. We had a drink at the bar first; the bartender was nice but seemed a little overwhelmed and slow. Once we were seated, we waited forever for our server to come over. We were just about to get up and leave when he finally appeared. He then introduced himself and wanted to shake my fella's hand, which seemed odd especially considering we were about to eat.
We decided to fire it up a little and ordered a $100 half bottle of wine. The sommelier came over to open it, which was nice, but he said he got some cork in the bottle while he was opening it. He then came back with an already decanted bottle of wine. Now, we're no fancy pants wine tasters, and we have no idea if he indeed opened a new bottle of the same wine or just brought us some leftover Franzia. We ordered the BBQ shrimp appetizer, which was good, and the petite filets for dinner, which were also good.
This is the third time we've been in probably six months, and each time we keep hoping the service will get better, but no luck.
