    Amazing experience, service, quality, atmosphere, and pricing. This was unexpected from a national chain.

    My husband ordered steak medium rare. It arrived medium well. We sent it back, another was prepared. It was the same! Super disappointing. He could not eat it and basically ate French fries for dinner. That said, the server was very nice and removed it from the bill which was a nice gesture but we won’t be back. We generally enjoy Ruth’s Chris in other cities. This was our first time trying it in Minneapolis. Not the dining experience we expected.

    Our favorite steakhouse! The service is always top notch. Evan was awesome and took great care of us! The steaks were cooked perfectly and I love the seasoning Ruth Chris puts on them. Cocktails were great too!

    The Staff is courteous and professional; the food is delicious (be sure to try the CRABCAKES!); and my wife loved her loaded baked potato (HUGE!). We come back all the time!

    Shareable sizes are significantly smaller in Rochester location versus Minneapolis location. Other than that, the food is still delicious
