Came here to celebrate my birthday! We were welcomed with some nice confetti on the table and a personalized menu. Nice touches! Our server was Destiny, she was so sweet and took her time to explain the menu and chat with us. Super friendly, would return just for her! My husband ordered the ribeye, medium rare. He liked it, but said it was a bit greasy as there was a bunch of oil on his plate. I ordered the petite fillet with scallops, which was on the seasonal menu. Both were well seasoned. The garlic mashed potatoes did not have enough garlic, it was just like normal mashed potatoes. The mushrooms were good but a bit salty. All the dishes were good but nothing extraordinary. We received a complimentary cheesecake for my birthday. This was the perfect end to our dinner :)

The cowboy ribeye was the best steak I have had in quite a while! The meat was very fragrant, tender, juicy and had just the right amount of fattiness. The tomahawk ribeye was a bit more lean, but still had a very rich flavour. We ordered medium rare and the steaks came perfectly cooked. The hot plates also helped the steak to stay warm during the entire dinner. However, the side of mushrooms was too salty for our liking. The restaurant was clean, spacious and elegantly decorated. Service was excellent.

Beautiful and classy restaurant in Pasadena, so parking can be difficult depending on time of day. We came in during dinner on a weekday and we were able to find street parking only a block away. Service here is excellent. Servers are attentive to your requests and do a wonderful job serving our table. We came here for a financial seminar so the meal was complimentary, but I've been here previously as a paying customer, and the quality of their service and food is top notch. Everyone has their preference on steak flavor/seasoning. Ruth Chris is known for the buttery steaks and I love it. Each steak is served on a HOT cask iron plate with sizzling butter - delish! Their sides are also very good - we had the cream spinach and garlic mash potatoes. These aren't diet dishes, their splurge and indulgent dishes - so enjoy. They also have a pretty decent happy hour in the bar area.

Celebrated a birthday dinner here and food was really good. Both our first times and they printed our menu with each of our names on it for keepsakes! Ribeye steak was very juicy and tender which was seasoned perfectly. Lobster mac n cheese had a good amount of meat on top and wasn't overwhelmingly cheesy.

We attended a group event in a private room. The menu choices were good and we ordered a rib eye steak and the veggie broccoli steak. We shared sides which consisted of a cheesy veggie dip, mash potatoes, spinach dip, and warm fresh bread. My steak was big and came out exactly as expected and the sides were really good, not the best but really good.

We came here to celebrate a wedding anniversary. When my husband called to make a reservation they took note of what we're celebrating and even customized our menus to wish both of us a happy anniversary by name. This was the best calamari I've ever had, and I order calamari at every restaurant that has calamari on their menu. It's served with more of a sweet chili sauce than a traditional marinara. I could have ordered a second plate. And the red bell peppers were a yummy pairing. Everytime we eat at Ruth's Chris we always order the lobster Mac and cheese. My shrimp and salmon were cooked to perfection. And the table bread was so yummy!

Came here for my 15th year anniversary, on the section for special requests, I asked for "Happy 15th Anniversary Emily & Jeff" to be typed out. They missed the detail of the 15th... but oh wells. When we got there, you have the option of paying for valet, or also parking across the street. We were seated promptly at a table with some decorations on it and our personalized menu. We got started on some warm yummy bread and butter and appetizers of crab cakes and lobster bisque. The crab cakes were the best I've ever haddd! The lobster bisque tasted a bit too much like wine, so I would pass on that. As for the lobster mac and cheese and garlic mashed potatoes, they were also okay, the steaks were good and cooked to perfection, my lobster tasted a bit overcooked for my preference. Overall, this was not a bad experience, I'd come back, especially for the crab cakes!

It started horribly wrong but it ended in great satisfaction. They literally forgot about our table for the first 30min, but it was a simple human error, they were busy. Since this was our anniversary, we were not happy about the initial experience. After notifying the staff, they really made it up. Exceptional service! The place was busy but good vibe. The food was great, however, they do use a LOT of butter. I love butter, but i figured it may not be the same for everyone's liking. I highly recommend this place, the waiters are attentive and I really appreciate the great experience, they understood their mistakes and made up 100x more than what I expected.
