Expect nothing less than an extraordinary meal and first-class service from one of the most outstanding prime steak houses in the world: Ruth's Chris Steak House. Among the most distinctive dining destinations in the area. At Ruth's Chris Steak House your service will always be first class-attentive but never fussy.
"This was my third visit to a Ruth's Chris Steakhouse at three different locations. I was my husband's first visit. I must say all three experiences were of equal quality food and atmosphere. This was our 28th anniversary and although my husband has been very ill for several years now, he enjoyed the experience and talked about his steak the whole way home. It is a little pricey for the average evening out, but for that special occasion, the price is worth it for the memories and service."

"I have always had good luck here. We've know the manager since the days they were located off Buck Jones. Ruth's Chris is always consistent. Other than a couple of items I'd like to see return to the menu, it is always a dining experience that I enjoy."

"Last time we came for dinner the meal was unremarkable and not great.
This time it was an amazing dinner. Everyone's steaks were top notch, the service was impeccable and all the sides were fresh and wonderful. The salads were crisp and flavorful. The steaks were sizzling and such a treat. Specialty drinks were perfection. Dessert was devoured. Need I say more. I was impressed and we will be back."

"We were celebrating my husband's birthday and the restaurant did a nice job putting us in a private area with rose petals on the table. It was very romantic and the staff was excellent."

"Ruth's is a special treat for most - for me it's typically a business dinner and rather routine. This visit was not memorable - I found the waitstaff a bit over bearing. It was clear we needed time to talk and were in no rush, yet Johanna kept popping in and at times I felt like we need to make a next move and order. My filet, ordered Oscar style, was not and by the time the crab cake arrived, I was not interested. Instead I opted for a doggie bag. Just not by favorite place."

"The food was excellent. Everything I tasted was delectable and we were not disappointed with any of the dishes. However I would only recommend for special occasions due to the prices, which are exuberant. The entrees do not include sides which adds to the prices quickly. We were given a complimentary desert because of the occasion. Although the waitress was very nice and attentive while at our table, I thought she could have been just a bit more accessible. This may have been intentional due to this being our anniversary dinner. She may have thought we wanted more privacy."

"My wife and I went here for dinner on Easter Sunday. Surprisingly, we had the place pretty much to ourselves. However, the staff was fantastic. Our server, Johanna, was knowledgeable, personable and professional. My wife had the filet & shrimp combo which was excellent. My rib-eye was cooked exactly the way I asked. The sides were wonderful and the chocolate dessert was all we could ask. We gave the ambiance 3 stars because of the lack of guests. Otherwise, another outstanding experience at this restaurant."

"Overall excellent - however our table was placed in a booth directly infront of the kitchen with clamoring plates and orders being placed. Waiter was absolutely attentive, it was a birthday so the staff really made sure my guest was well taken care of. Worth every penny, will return for another special ocassion. PS the Cary location has a beautiful interior!"

"Not everyone can bat 1000 and my favorite steakhouse didn't last night. Still great in so many ways, but they had several functions so my party of 3 suffered some delays and one steak came in overdone. But that was remedied in about 2 minutes; a great recovery. Still my favorite; just missed for one night the perfection I have come to expect."

"Do not order the Petite Filet Mignon and Shrimp. The Filet that is served is the tip of the tenderloin, and while I am aware that they have to do something with it, the meat is much too tough to sell as Filet Mignon at that price. The service is very good. The ambiance is nice in a booth at the bar. The food is over-priced, especially for the side dishes. $9.95 for a handful of quartered mushrooms is just silly. Still, I am the one who foolishly ordered it and silly me will probably go again."

"I took my girlfriend here for Valentine's day, and it was definitely the best food I have ever had. Our server was very friendly and since it was our first time at a fancy restaurant, he even helped us pick out our meal, which was extraordinary. I will definitely be going there again as soon as I can!"

"Atmosphere is great, service is great. Food is very good but not outstanding considering the price point. Prices are too high for the level of food quality and preparation. We were not blown away with the food. When paying $190.00 for three people when we did not order appetizers, alcohol or dessert,we expected to be wowed with the food. Unfortunately, we were not."

"My meat was a little tough and greasy. The manager offered to replace it but i did not want to wait for that to happen. We were really disappointed that for our 50th wedding anniversary they could not offer us a free dessert as they always have in the past. Dave"

"Great restaurant with an outstanding winelist. The steaks however were not as good as other similarly priced steakhouses. My NY strip was tough and lacking on flavor"

"I ordered the stuffed chicken, and it was very bland and lacked cheese. It was very disappointing. Overall, the food was okay. Howevery, I did enjoy the ambiance. It is a beautiful restaurant and very romantic. I wouldn't highly recommend anyone to dine at Ruth's Chris based off my experience."

"well I was there celebrating my 17th annaversery and my husbands birthday. The servers were very nice and helpful. I was dissapointed that the resturant did nothing for him for his birthday, such as offer him a desert or something. secondly my steak was not prepared correctly I ask for no pink and when I got it it was pink inside, they recooked it then it was dry and almost burned. my sister in law's lobster tail was not done and had to be sen back. they did not appologize for this or try to compensate for it. I thought the prices were a little expensive since nothing came with the meats. Priscilla"

"Ruth's Chris is always a top notch experience. We had a wonderful meal and the service was fantastic as always. We just need to remember what a popular place it is for business dinners and avoid dining there on weeknights. There were several large groups, including one right next to us that was especially loud. Other than having to tolerate the noise, we had a great time."

"My decision to eat here was based on the restaurants reputation for it's beef and I wasn't disappointed. I had the Cowboy Ribeye and it was prepared to perfection. I enjoyed the fact that the menu also offered a wide variety of foods. My wife had the Sea Bass and said it was the best. We shared the asparagus with Hollandaise sauce and liked that it wasn't over cooked. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was very comfortable. I would highly recommend this restaurant to my friends."

"Excellent service and food. The decor is contemporary and inviting. The waitstaff is professional and knowlegeable. The cuisine is out of this world fantastic. It isn't an "every weekend" type of place to go, unless you are independantly wealthy - but for a romantic dinner or celebration, it delivers."

"I was about to send you a letter regarding our last dinner with you folks. It was outstanding. We have run out of "special occasions" to dine there so we just are going to come for the food. We give up. You guys are the best.
I find myself not buying frivolous things so I can budget toward dining at Ruth's Chris. We are not wealthy people and the economy has hit us hard, but gosh darn it, one has to set priorities.
See you Saturday, 5:00PM, we are old folks."

"Ruth Chris has always been an upper echelon restaurant. The prices are on the upper end; however, the service, quality of food, and attention to detail warrant that. Of the 3 Ruth Chris restaurants in our local area, Cary seems to be the best in our opinion."

"Nice to see the hostesses now dressed uniformly in black, befitting the upscale decor of the dining room itself. Previous willy-nilly outfits did nothing to evoke confidence of arrivals in the supposed reputation of the restaurant."

"The outing was fine; but, we were disappointed in the steak (at least my wife's steak). We participated in the Restraurant Week promotion and perhaps that was the problem; although, I would have thought this would be a pretext for better not worse entrees.I have large experience with Ruth's Chris and over the years have enjoyed it many times. This time I was disappointed because my wife was disapointed.It was still a reasonable experience."

"Ruth's Chris is expensive but good. From our previous experience, we enjoy the steaks, but the extras are overpriced for the value (vegetables, potato). The four of us all had the $30 special for "Restaurant Week". The salad, filet and chocolate sin cake were all very good. After a raspberry martini (which was excellent), I asked to see the red wine(malbec) list (from the busboy) and then was brought a "house" malbec from our waiter w/o the listing. This was $4 more than the one I wanted and did not taste any different to me. I think this was just a communication problem but felt I was taken advantage of. Since there are so many restaurants in the Raleigh area, we would prefer to try others rather than returning here."

"Second visit to this restaurant. We were all very pleased once again. Booth we were seated in was uncomfortable, felt the wood underneath the cushion. Time for an upgrade in that area only."
