Our experience at Ruth’s Chris was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the valet service was attentive and welcoming, making even the less-than-ideal weather whether rain, or snow feel like a minor detail. Inside, the ambiance was as warm and inviting as ever. Our server, Tony, went above and beyond with his excellent conversation, patience, and accommodating nature, adding to the overall enjoyment of our evening. For our Valentine’s Day dinner, everything was perfect. We started with the spicy shrimp appetizer, which was full of flavor and a good portion. For our entrées, I had the salmon and shrimp, while my wife chose the lamb chops, both dishes were absolutely delicious. From the friendly hostesses to the attentive wait staff, every visit to Ruth’s Chris continues to exceed our expectations. Thank you to the entire team for making our dining experiences so memorable. This remains one of our favorite places for fine dining, and we can’t wait to return!

I really enjoy writing reviews when we get blessed on a night out. This review will be a very easy one to write. We were gifted a very generous gift card from my sons not girlfriend. She is just one of the most kind and thoughtful people we know. This is my first visit. When I booked the reservation I mentioned it was my fiancé’s birthday. And I also mentioned we would be bringing our two kids. They said that was no problem that they were kid friendly. When we got there and checked in by valet. We had two men come out and open our doors and wish us a nice evening. We checked in and had a very kind and pleasant greeting. They also acknowledged and said hello to our kids. They sat us right away and our table had happy birthday confetti. Tasteful not tacky. We opened our menus to another happy birthday greeting. We were joined by our two friends and started with there nice warm bread and butter, drinks and salads. I have posted photos to show how incredible the aesthetics were. They tasted as good as they look. We then ordered our meals and everything was beyond amazing. The kids meals were incredibly reasonable and they got quite a bit. Drink, meat, side and dessert. I enjoyed the ribeye and my fiancé the 11oz filet. I am going to admit, with everything going on in our world right now. I was nervous going to the cities. But once we pulled up right at the door and was greeted by valet. All my worries went to rest. (And leaving it in Gods hands) I highly encourage you to try this restaurant. Don’t be shy because of the prices. It is worth it. You pay not only for the food, but the service and environment. And they will not disappoint. Our server Zaye, was funny, respectful, knew the menu to a T and was so kind to our kids. I just can’t say enough about Ruth Chris. Started by a sweet lady named Ruth. Definitely run, don’t walk! Highly recommend making a reservation ❤️

Wonderful place, strangely has a dress code greater than the best steakhouse in Minneapolis (Manny's). The steaks are good and the chicken was okay, but not great. The cheese potatoes, calamari, and spicy shrimp were very tasty. The Arnold Palmer however were elite.

Me and my husband had such an amazing wedding celebration at this Ruth Chris. Thank you so much to the amazing manger here who was very welcoming and funny and also made sure our service was perfect. And to our wonderful server, Brendan who had incredible customer service. He explained everything on the menu and we loved everything he recommended. Thank you all!

An all-around fantastic experience! I highly recommend this place. Fair warning: you might find yourself wanting to come back immediately! The sizzling steak is absolutely incredible!

First time coming to a Ruth’s but i def would come back. Service was amazing. My server Ritett went above and beyond to accommodate my needs as well as providing great suggestions on what to order throughout. My only gripe was they made me take my hat off to dine in. I guess that’s how it is with places like this though

After celebrating a Vikings win, we decided to keep the good vibes rolling with an incredible dining experience at Ruth’s Chris in Minneapolis—and they did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in, the service and food were absolutely top-notch. We started with the BBQ shrimp, which was perfectly cooked and flavorful. For entrees, the bone-in filet and cowboy ribeye stole the show—both were cooked to perfection, tender, and full of flavor. The mashed potatoes were creamy and indulgent, and we were thrilled to try their off-menu hash browns—crispy, golden, and the perfect complement to the steaks. For dessert, we were treated to the ultimate trifecta: the classic crème brûlée, the on-menu flourless chocolate cake, and an incredible off-menu chocolate lava cake. Each dessert was divine, but that lava cake was truly something special. The highlight of the evening was the outstanding service. Hannah, the manager, went above and beyond to make sure our party was taken care of, and our server Kristin was equally amazing—attentive, personable, and made the experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for the perfect way to celebrate a win (or just treat yourself to an unforgettable meal), Ruth’s Chris Minneapolis is the place to be. We’ll definitely be back!

We had a great dinner at Ruth Chris in Minneapolis. Rhett our server was very attentive to our needs and present when we needed anything. He worked great with his assistants and kitchen staff. Steaks were great and cooked perfectly. Drinks were on point! Crème Brûlée was a wonderful dessert!
