Editorial Review for Ruth's Chris Steak House – by Tara de Lis
In Short
This offshoot of a popular New Orleans hangout for politicians features decor of dark woods and comfortable booths, with a separate bar scene. Choice cuts of custom-aged beef arrive in sizzling butter on 500-degree plates. The menu also offers chicken, pork and seafood entrees along with Creole appetizers like shrimp remoulade. Family-style sides include gargantuan onion rings, creamed spinach and various styles of potatoes. Traditional homemade desserts like cheesecake and bread pudding conclude the meal.

Look GoodIt's not on the menu, but consider ordering your steak "Oscar style," which means it's topped with asparagus, crab cakes and bearnaise sauce.

I read some reviews, went there as a large group for a friend's birthday, and expected great steak which we got. It was really expensive, the most expensive meal my boyfriend and I have ever eaten, and the lobster tail was pretty good too. They have large side dishes that serve 2-3 people, I ordered the broccoli cheese au gratin, which was delicious along with a NY strip. I'd recommend trying the calamari and tuna which were presented and tasted really good. My steak was still sizzling when they brought it to my table and we were warned plenty of times that it was hot. After sampling a little bit of everything on our table, I didn't finish my steak but brought it home and ate it the next day. The only thing I can complain about was the wait time. It took forever for our food to get to the tables (we ordered off a special & limited menu created for our party) and after we ate, it took the waitress really long to bring us our checks, and of course she took a long time bringing back the slips. My boyfriend was starting to get an anxiety attack. I understand there was like ten people at our table, but most of us paid cash or were paying as a couple.
Pros: food, service, complimentary valet
Cons: long wait time

I took my husband here for his birthday and was very pleased with our experience. Yes, there is a little "sticker shock" at the menu prices but you won't even think twice about the price once you take that first bite. The service was impeccable. Generally, any restaurant that offers crumb service scores high with me but here they went above and beyond by calling me the next day to make sure that our dinner was everything we'd hoped. and it was....all that and more
Pros: Superb service
Cons: Parking - definitely go with valet
