Ruth’s Chris and a great summer deal

by kellys on July 1st, 2008

So I have been hearing about Ruth’s Chris Steak House.  I have always wanted to go but I have heard that it is extremely expensive.  Now they have a summer deal that allows  2 people to eat an appetizer, main entree plus a side dish, and a dessert.  Sounds great!  I was thinking $50 was steep.  Oh, no.  It’s $89 plus tax and tip.  OMG!!!!!!!!!

I’m cheap but I guess that is just not in my realm of reality.  I am envious of those who can enjoy such luxuries, but even if I could, it would be a once a year treat.  Not something that I would do on a regular basis.  More power to ya!

    I’ve been to a few different Ruth’s Chris locations and haven’t been at all impressed. Their food is good…but definitely not good enough to warrant the price tag. I thought maybe they could make up for the price by having fantastic service (it has its place!)…but no. I took a client and we both agreed that it was one of the worst experiences we’ve ever had in a restaurant.

    I am so sorry to hear that! I feel that way about a local steakhouse. I have never been there without having to send something back. The first time I got pork chops there, the waitress asked me how I wanted my chops cooked. I said well done since it was pork. She said she recommended them medium. I had to send them back.

    Who recommends medium pork?!?!
