I first rated Ruth's Chris a couple years ago. I didnt understand one bit why it was well rated, as that particular meal was a sea of salt served on a plate.
Since then , I have had a few friends ask me to join them at Ruth's Chris. At first, I begrudgingly agreed to go. After the first revisit, I have visited a few times and realized my original visit was a poor roll of dice.
I've had ribeyes and bone-in filets. The meats are advertised prime, and they taste prime: tender and juicy. Perfectly cooked every time. The sides are also very enjoyable. We got the lobster mac and cheese multiple times, impressed by the depths of flavor and the subtle taste of a chopped up green chili.
The service is always good as well.
This is one of those times where I am glad I gave a restaurant a second shot. I would give them four stars if my first visit wasn't so poor.
