    Great dinner! Everyone was so nice, and the food was excellent. We had the corn salad, shrimp cocktail, ribeye steak and pasta with shrimp for the entree. The food was outstanding, one of the best steaks ever.

    As always, delicious food and great service. Only negative is price. Ruth's Chris is the place to celebrate milestones but definitely not a place where you can come to eat on a whim.
