  • Ruth Chris's does not have a good price/quality ratio. At all. The decor is nice - boring but very acceptable, and the wait staff was excellent. We had a small group lunch and the waiter gave the standard speech about the history of the steakhouse, and proceeded to explain how they only use corn-fed midwestern beef. HELLO? We are the land of excellent grass fed beef here. Cows don't eat corn. It's cruel to them and less tasty for us. There is a host of economic, ethical and political issues with corn fed beef and I kind of wanted to laugh, but refrained at his obvious pride at his spiel. On to ordering - I got a steak salad, my neighbor a steak sandwich with gumbo, and my other neighbor the mixed platter of chicken encrusted with blue cheese, a small steak, crab cakes and the previously mentioned fried tomato. My steak was perfectly cooked, very tender and since it rested on a bed of mushrooms did not overcook. It was drenched in previously mentioned butter and had that unmistakable 'off' flavor that US corn-finished beef has. To my taste buds it's a slightly sour undertone rather than the buttery beefy flavor I look for in aged AB beef. The salad was mediocre. Somehow the blue cheese dressing managed to be completely boring with salt as the dominant flavor, and did not mix well with crumbled eggs. My companion reflected that she prefers her gumbo with actual chunks of seafood, not tiny shreds; the steak sandwich was not open faced but stuffed into a thick roll/bun that was too much bread to steak; the proverbial 8.00 tomato was drenched in sugar and lacked salt, tang or garlic to even it out. It was literally a very sweet concoction sprinkled with a bit of parsley. Overall, Ruth Chris's food was entirely overpriced and rather bland, boring and mediocre. For good steak go to Saltlik or Vintage. They're a much better value and way more fun.
