College grad dinner and honestly, I wish we had selected a better venue. Overall, Ruth Chris has appeared to have gone downhill in the last few years and I am tired of blaming the pandemic for everything. We are spending good money and expect not only a great quality meal, but an overall great experience. Food quality was good For the most part, but not exceptional like it used to be. lobster bisque had a very bad taste, almost like cleaning solution left on bowl and brussel sprout side dish was mediocre. But what really got me was the length of time tables that were finished eating and patrons long gone, stayed dirty, covered with dishes and glasses for well over 30 mins. The women’s restroom was unkept, one stall broken, no soap to wash hands, toilet paper holder was broken off the wall in one of the two functioning stalls. Again, I wish I had taken my $250 elsewhere.

Two of the four of us had improper cooked steaks. With the price of this establishment we should never have to worry about getting steaks over cooked. We didn’t complain because we were in a business meeting and didn’t feel it was appropriate.

We love Ruth's Chris for a delicious steak dinner. This location gets very busy so its best to make an early reservation. The last few times we've dined after 8, we've had to wait 30 minutes or more for a table despite a reservation. Overall though this is a great restaurant and we'll continue to return.

The steaks at Ruth's are always amazing. The server was perfect. The reservation was at 7pm, and we didn't get seated until after 730, so that was a disappointment, especially when we're waiting and can see empty tables. It also felt like the air conditioning was struggling to work properly. Still worth the steak. The Old Fashioned was 🎯, as well.

Elijah was a wonderful waiter. It was Easter, so it was busy and a little slow with service, which was understandable. They seemed to be lacking in support staff, but had 4-5 people standing around the podium most of the time we were there. They should’ve jumped in and helped reset tables, pour water etc. Even some of the management was walking by tables needing busing and not grabbing something on the way back to the kitchen. This won’t deter us from going back, it’s just an observation.

Made reservations for 9:15, did not get to sit until 9:50 pm. No waiting area. There were many open tables that could be seen while we were waiting. There were four other parties waiting in front of us. Why make reservations if you have to wait more than ten minutes after your reservation time.

First time experience even though I’ve heard about Ruth’s Chris for years. Food and service were great. Price was on the high side but that quality beef doesn’t come free. The waitress hooked us up with a nice dessert for our two special occasions - our anniversary and my birthday. Will definitely come again.

Steak was over cooked 2x, was way too loud to be able to talk comfortably, service was decent, but we sat there waiting for food to be picked up and glasses refilled a few times. Overall, not as good as they usually are and they were not even that busy.

Underwhelmed. Bar staff was amazing. Server was good, steaks ok. Extremely agitated by the “dress code” which apparently doesn’t apply to the bar area. A small rip in one knee of jeans required me to “cover up”. Would have been less of an issue if they applied it to everyone. Men in hoodies, women in sports bras had no issue. Seemed a bit silly when our bills totaled $1600+

Unfortunately we were not allowed to attend our reservation. We were brought to the side and told we were out of dress code. We were dressed up for my Mother's 65th Birthday. They for sure are selective on who they enforce certain parts of the code but I wish I knew the full details on here before I booked. A small patch on a pair of $150+ jeans was not acceptable and my Mom has arthritis so she had on nice sneakers with her dress clothes, dress pants and a nice rhinestone knit turtle neck. She doesn't drink but we had a VIP event to attend after and already had both cars in Valet so the only option they gave us was to sit at the bar so we were left really with no choice. They ended up providing us an appetizer on the house, just was uncomfortable and seeing the other people be sat who were WAY dressed down from what we were just wasn't a great feeling. Bartenders also were confused but were extremely welcoming. Service from the bar was great so I guess it worked out just rather have been at a table for my Mom. Food was amazing.

The waitress was very nice and attentive and gave us some history about the restaurant since it was our first time there. The steak was flavorful and the sides were big enough you could share them.

Ruth’s Chris delivers again. Food was phenomenal (Four filets, Lobster Mac & Cheese, Mashed potatoes, asparagus) our waiter was fantastic. We love RC, always our family go to restaurant. The only drawback was the wait, we had 8:15 reservation - seated at 8:50 and receptionist ladies were not as friendly and welcoming as typical. We have been to the Nashville RC a dozen times or more and will be back.
