Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse!

 

I took my wife for a date last night to Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse. They’ve got a great summer deal going. You can get two meals, including you choice of salad, entree, sides and dessert to share, for $89 (plus drinks, tax and gratuity). This is a big number for two meals but Ruth’s Chris is very nice restaurant with outstanding steaks!

You can access more details about the promotion here.

In order to appreciate Ruth’s Chris you must understand their cooking methodology. From the Ruth’s Chris website:

Carefully selected and aged for tenderness. Cut thick to ensure juiciness. Seared to perfection at 1800 degrees. Topped with fresh butter that sizzles seductively on your plate, announcing the arrival of a fantastic steak you’ll be talking about for days.

I’ll testify!  This was my second Ruth’s Chris experience and it was a great one!  My previous visit was to the San Antonio location.  The service and atmosphere at the Houston location is not up to par with San Antonio but that all faded to the background once the steaks arrived!

We both order the petite filet.  Mine was cooked rare and my wife’s was cooking medium well.  They were perfectly cooked and the plate was sizzling with the grlic butter that had put on the top of the steak.  It was so tender, like velvet!  I would completely recommend giving it a try if you have a chance!
