Ruth's Chris Steak House

The Write-Up

The full story

The familiar name on Restaurant Row, recently remodeled and running its sizzling-platter ritual exactly to spec. Filets and ribeyes arrive sizzling hot, with lobster mac and cheese and lobster bisque in support and service guests call impeccable. It is the no-surprises client dinner; just order your steak a degree under your usual, since the kitchen occasionally sends one past the mark.
