Editorial Review for Ruth's Chris Steak House – by Tara de Lis
In Short
This offshoot of a popular New Orleans hangout for politicians features decor of dark woods and comfortable booths, with a separate bar scene. Choice cuts of custom-aged beef arrive in sizzling butter on 500-degree plates. The menu also offers chicken, pork and seafood entrees along with Creole appetizers like shrimp remoulade. Family-style sides include gargantuan onion rings, creamed spinach and various styles of potatoes. Traditional homemade desserts like cheesecake and bread pudding conclude the meal.

Insider Tips
Look GoodIt's not on the menu, but consider ordering your steak "Oscar style," which means it's topped with asparagus, crab cakes and bearnaise sauce.

I went to this restaurant with high expectations after hearing quite a few rave reviews from people i knew. The service was great but I ordered my steak "butterflied and well done." I figured a place that specialized in steaks would know what that meant... they didnt butterfly it, they simply cut it in two pieces and it still came out med-rare. i politely sent it back but this time it came back tasting like a piece of charcoal. i hate sending things back and if it had been edible i wouldnt have, but the taste of charcoal was so strong that i couldnt enjoy it and had to send it back AGAIN. They finally made me another steak and when it came out it was perfect. Although it took a few tries to get it right the food was still amazing and I'd eat there again.
Pros: parking, service, drinks
Cons: inability to get an order right

My husband and I went here for our anniversary and it was amazing!!! We had the filet, whole lobster, BBQ shrimp, stuff mushrooms, desert pudding, and two drinks. Our bill was high, 160 for both of us, but it was completely worth every penny. We had excellent service and the food was perfect the whole way through. We ordered our steaks a little underdone (Med) but the plate continue cooking them to perfection. I would recommend it to anyone!!! We went to Maui though with high expectations and it wasn't nearly as good as the one on Oahu. I would not recommend the Ruth Chris is Maui under any circumstance. The chef on Oahu is the BEST. The lobster melts in your mouth!! I never knew it could taste so good. I could go on but I think you get my point, make a reservation now!!!! If you have a special event let them know, you get complementary dessert. I would not recommend taking children or go in large groups. We went to the one in Maui in a large group and I think that had a huge effect. Perfect for Anniversaries!
Pros: lobster melts in your mouth, the clean your table after each course, etc.
Cons: none
