Ruth’s Chris Steak House
“For an entree, I had the filet mignon with roquefort and port butter.”
“The only suggestion would be for it to be a bit more charred on the outside (or maybe I just got spoiled by Peter Luger).”
“The sides were good but not as outstanding as the beef – I had mashed potatoes and we shared garlic green beans.”

Always reliable for a great steak! This was the first time I tried one in the city and I'm happy to say that it's as good as the ones I've been to in Jersey.
The wait staff is always spot on. They are quick, friendly, and efficient. Always right there to refill your glass without asking. I like that.
The steaks are always cooked perfectly and they are always mindful of people with food allergies.
Can't ask for anything more!
Highly recommend for one of the best, softest, tenderest, delicious steaks ever!!
Enjoyed my birthday here, which happened to fall during NYC 2016 Summer Restaurant Week.
(See my photo of the special menu. And photos of the delicious meal!! ). So, that made my birthday even more fun for me. Hey, who doesn't love a fantastic bargain?!! Altho, my dear friend who was treating me, said that since I've wanted to try Ruth's Chris Steakhouse for as long as I've said, she was treating, didn't matter about restaurant week. Very kind & generous. Thank you Lauren!
Ok–we ordered from the 3-course, Restaurant Week Menu. Dinner, $42. This menu happened to have every item I had wanted to try!!!!EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS, WONDERFUL, FANTASTIC. Honestly, if you plan to visit NYC, come here for a delicious dinner, in spacious surroundings. Whether it's restaurant week or not, make a reservation!!
We both started with the "steakhouse salad"–
the steakhouse salad was delicious & beautifully presented. A fine assortment of greens. I enjoyed a yummy Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing on the side. Forgot to take a photo due to the birthday excitement of being in a lovely room at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, and being very hungry. The restaurant is quite large, I will definitely be back!! Our servers were very nice and helpful–Andrew and I believe, Alfonso.
We had creamed spinach as a side, and garlic mashed potatoes as our other side. One side per order.
We each really, really enjoyed the 8 oz. Petit Filet. This was so wonderfully delicious!!! This steak was served on a 500 degree, SIZZLING HOT PLATE–DO NOT TOUCH THE PLATE!! The steak had that bit of crispiness on top, and unbelievable tenderness inside. My "medium" was perfection, with the perfect pink in center of each slice I cut. I LOVED MY STEAK!!!! And so did my friend. I raved over and over about how delicious the steak was, with almost every bite…it was so soft & delicious. I'm definitely going back !!!
And for dessert, we had the Key Lime Cheesecake–delicious!! AND, A BEAUTIFUL SPECIAL BIRTHDAY DESSERT—WONDERFUL!!! A RICH CHOCOLATE–FLOURLESS ROUND, CREAMY RICH DESSERT, AND THE MOST WONDERFULLY , FRESH RASPBERRY SORBET. THE MOST WONDERFUL RASPBERRY SORBET I HAVE EVER HAD!!!!!! And written on the special, square, white dessert plate was Happy Birthday, in Chocolate. Great Birthday Dinner!!
See my photos!!
Their meat lacks the flavor and tenderness of other high end steakhouses, yet carries the same price tag. Simply does not compare to its competitors.
Appetizers are good, but nothing spectacular. Kinda boring choices. Lollipop lamb chops and crab stuffed mushrooms are worth trying.
Service is excellent.
I was impressed to see Allagash and Dogfish on their beer list. Wine list is extensive.
The pre fixe menu is a good bang for your buck, you don't see that at many steak joints.
It's a goto for me due to it's convenient location, but not even close to the top of my steakhouse list.
Chicks dig it though….
I was invited to a special dinner last night, and my overall experience was a five star. I knew Ruth's Chris is a famous steak house, but I was really impressed. The overall design of the restaurant, and their food is incredible good, elegant and at the same time intimate – almost homie.
I had a five courses dinner with five different Veuve Clicquot champagne glasses. I especially enjoyed the lobster and corn chowder and Ruth Chris' famous filet mignon with Roquefort and port butter on top. Both so delicious, I am still thinking about it. The meat literally melt in my mouth, and the soup was filled of pieces of lobster! Also the VC Vintage 2004, was perfect match for the filet.
Can't wait to find an excuse to come back.
Very nice ambiance and very spacious. I ordered the medium rare rib eye stack and it was cooked perfectly. On top of our steak we opted for a crab cake, asparagus and hollandaise sauce, Skip This! It was an extra $17 dollars but it was NOT worth it. It is also extra $11 dollars to sprinkle blue cheese on top of your steak, which I could not even taste.
We also ordered the Mac and cheese and the sweet potatoes casserole with pecan crust. All the sides were delicious.
The one thing I would come back for is the calamari! This was the best calamari I have ever tasted!
This restaurant is crazy expensive. I thought the steaks were pretty good, but for the prices I don't think it's worth it. I got the filet mignon which was $53! And it didn't even have any sides wtf? Also all their steaks are cooked the same with salt, pepper and butter. Even if you got other meat dishes, you have to purchase the sides.
It's put on a hot plate so it stays warm for your entire meal. I also had the sides of mashed potatoes and brussels sprouts. The mashed potatoes was tasty and the brussels sprouts were baked so they were crunchy and flavourful.
The service was pretty good at this restaurant, but similar to the tier of service offered at other high tier steak houses. In the end, it was almost $300 for 4 people.
I think it's only marginal than restaurants with $30 steaks and I don't think it's worth the incredibly expensive prices. Don't get me wrong, these steaks are pretty good! And they are flavoured differently from all the other steaks. Having the hot plate is pretty neat too. I think this restaurant has a good brand that it leverages to make them extremely pricey.
I think this is the best deal you could probably get for restaurant week lunch. I came hungry and left extremely satisfied. The service, the food, the atmosphere was nothing short of excellent. As soon as we sat down they brought the water and warm baguette (with whipped butter of course). It was an amazing start to our experience.
The pace of the service was perfect as they noticed when we were finished and checked in periodically.
-Corn Chowder-delicious with the baguette. not as creamy or heavy as I expected, which I liked
-Filet Petite(medium rare 6oz.) – AMAZING. I would suggest you order one level down as this was cooked medium instead of medium rare (if you want medium well then state medium).
The plate was sizzling hot and kept warm well into the meal so you can take time to enjoy the steak itself. Every bite was delicious…if you put the sides on the plate..it will heat up your sides as well (we got the creamed spinach and mashed potatoes which were ok, but definitely the highlight was the meat itself). One of the best steaks I had as the meat was juicy/tender, the texture amazing and full of flavor every bite, not to mention perfect portioning for lunch.
-Key lime cheesecake that came with the menu was great. I don't even like key lime flavors but I thought this was still very well executed. The pecan chocolate bark/raspberry sauce was a good contrast
I am a fan especially because as a renowned steakhouse they have no need to participate in restaurant week, nor do they need to offer their best for the restaurant week menu but it seems like they put effort into every dish they serve…which is a reflection of an amazing restaurant.
I was extremely impressed with my experience and would highly recommend this steakhouse for fancy occasions.
I was incredibly lucky to win tickets for CakeBread cellars Wine and Dinner Pairing through Yelp!What an amazing experience!
The food was heavenly! every dish was delicately put together to compliment a Cakebread wine. There was a wine connoisseur who gave us background information on each wine. This taught me more about the science behind wines which was great and necessary for me. Supposedly, the Pinot noir had a vanilla after taste but my I couldn't tell since my tastebuds are not developed for wine yet. It was delicious. I liked the merlot which was a surprise to me because usually I don't like how dry they can be.
The food is definitely among my top best. This experience is now going to make me look into wine and food pairing events. Super awesome!
