I went there for my birthday two weeks ago. Our server was very knowledgeable. Before we order, he described how the steak will be cooked and recommended us what to order on the side. We ordered T-bone steak and New York style steak. Though both my wife and I couldn’t finish the food because the portions were huge but we are very happy with the atmosphere of the restaurant and service we received that night. I will always recommend Ruth’s steak house to celebrate your special day. A five star ⭐️…..

I recently dined at Ruth’s Chris for a sister reunion/dinner and had the best time! Kevin was our host/support server and was outstanding with service, smile, professionalism, wealth of knowledge of the menu and much more! In addition Managment also went above and beyond to also ensure our dining experience wasn’t anything short of the best! We will be back! Highly recommend for small or large groups. Food was outstanding, wait time was perfect, and we even had a chef suggested dish which was also outstanding! Food was of excellent quality both presentation and taste!

Sister date at Ruth Chris’s! The service from the time we walked in until we left three hours later was nothing short of exceptional! Kevin Jones gave us service with a smile! He made sure we had everything we needed! Olivia greeted us with a smile! Yavanna was so funny! She gave us great suggestions of menu options! That Cowboy ribeye was EVERYTHING! The managers, Jenny and Sarah, checked on us to make sure everything was good at our table, which it absolutely was! Yes, we made best friends with the staff that provided us great service! ☺️ We had a great dining experience….and will definitely be back soon! THANK YOU!

It is our fifteen year anniversary. My Husband told me 'don't do anything I'm going to plan everything. I know exactly what to do' and he did just that. First he took me shopping to find something to wear and then we proceeded to Ruth's Chris Steak House in Walnut Creek CA. The whole dining experience was welcoming. We were seated timely. Toni came over immediately with Sara & Jenny. They were all smiles and held nice pleasant conversations. We had a to-die-for 'coffee martini' that was delectable. Crab cakes. Lamb chops. Steak. Red lobster macaroni and cheese. Calamari. Everything was seasoned well and warm. I just want to be there right now. Excellent human kind service to Ruth's Chris 👍🏾

This restaurant is very famous and it's my first time dining. We are welcomed warmly, although we were seated on the very far corner of the restaurant close to the stock room. I was a bit disappointed as they are not considerate among other paying customer. The food could have been better, but my view is absolutely horrible facing my wife on our anniversary. On the other hand the service are exceptional. I would not come back here for a while as I will try a better experience and ambiance somewhere else.

I recently dined at Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, and it was an absolutely amazing experience! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the clean and well-maintained establishment, which created a welcoming and upscale atmosphere. The food was simply outstanding—perfectly cooked steaks that were bursting with flavor, along with delicious sides that complemented the meal beautifully. Every bite was a testament to their high-quality ingredients and expert preparation. Beyond the incredible food, the ambiance was perfect for a relaxing and enjoyable dining experience. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just indulging in a great meal, Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse is the place to be. I highly recommend it and will definitely be returning!”

Had a blast! The staff ... AMAZING, FRIENDLY, PROFESSIONAL, FUN from the moment we walked in the door! Made the entire experience so memorable. Special shot out to Kevin Jones. Wonderful service on top of him having a winning smile and attitude. Light weight he should be a model, oooo maybe even the face of this restaurant, bringing in even more customers. Can't wait to come back and experience happy hour, I hear the steak sandwich is delicious. I'll be back with a review on that. Thank you Ruth's Chris AND Kevin Jones. #TurnDownForWhat #YummyFood #ExcellentDiningExperience #QualityCustomerServiceWithPersonality

The server made so many mistakes. Asked for refills for drinks- had to ask multiple times. two steaks for the table- both cooked wrong. Flavorless salmon. Birthday party- but cake brought to the wrong person. The list can go on- it was very expensive and really annoying. I expect better service for this restaurant. Very frustrating. Will not go back.
