I really enjoyed my Greatest Dinner there. The Manager Dylan L. was very Kind and Nice. This is why I could get Very Smooth Service. I could enjoy Excellent Cuisine, Tremendous Service, and Marvelous Atmosphere. If I have an Opportunity, I will be there to enjoy my Wonderful Dinner.

Overall food and dining experience was wonderful. Our server, Gary, was very pleasant and also very well paced in serving us. We never felt rushed but we never had to wait for him when we needed something. Food was excellent as expected. We ordered the bone in filet and ribeye in medium rare. Overall, very wonderful experience and would recommend this location for any special occasion or looking to enjoy great steaks.

Everything was spectacular, the steak was the best steak I have ever had. Service was amazing thank you Robert. Thank you to manager Elias whom was very present checking on everyone and very attentive. All the food from the stuffed mushrooms to the salad and our sides the main dish, plates are hot so your food stays hot through the dinner. The creme Brule and espresso was also amazing. Thank you for a great night we will be back.

We went for our family Valentine's Day dinner. The atmosphere was very nice and the service was good. The food was mostly good, we didn't care for the potatoes side as it felt a little watery and had a strong blue cheese flavor. We went for the Ribeye steak and it was flavorful, but it was kind of hard to check the wellness of it because the restaurant is dimly lit (the wife likes her steak well done). The steaks come out on a sizzling hot plate so be careful not to touch the plates. The creme brulee was ok, I felt that the ratio of creme to burnt sugar was off. The best part of a creme brulee is the burnt sugar but the more you get to the middle of the bowl the more creme you get. They sat us in a table that was the main walkway for all the servers so we had a lot of hot plates going over our heads. If you go I recommend asking to sit in the booths. Public street parking is very limited but they do have valet parking. Overall we would go back.

If you are celebrating anything this is the place to do it. Absolutely wonderful steakhouse with service that goes above and beyond. I went the Ruth’s Classic, which is the best option in my opinion. A prix fixe meal that comes with an appetizer, entree, side, and dessert. Honestly a perfect meal I was absolutely stuffed at the end.

Excellent everything here. I had the New York steak with lobster and asparagus. Their house cab is very good, and don’t miss the cheesecake. Plenty of parking across the street at the Paseo.

Me and my wife went on our 10th anniversary and had a wonderful time. Everything was great start to finish. Best steaks I have had at a restaurant and the servers and manager were wonderful. It was our first time there and we will most definitely be back

We visited for the first time on my husband’s birthday. The food and service was fantastic. Our server Corey was great and made great recommendations. We ordered, Mew York Strip, Ribeye, garlic mashed, grilled asparagus, and lobster Mac and cheese. The best side dish was the garlic mashed. They were super creamy and delicious. We loved Corey’s dessert recommendation of duo chocolate cake. It was warm, chocolatey and rich. They also provided a small cheesecake cupcake with a candle for my husband. We would definitely visit again.
