    Lobster
    Nikki A.

    I loved the decor and the friendly welcome. This was a night out to celebrate the anniversary of our first date. Date-i-versary! Efforts were made to recognize our special night. (Congratulations and petals on the table.) It took 30 minutes to get cocktails. In a relatively empty restaurant, this was a little confounding. The food was tasty. It took quite awhile to arrive. The lobster was a bit over done. I would definitely come back here and try happy hour. Not sure if it would hit it up again for a date night.

    PIKESVILLE LOCATION !!! I have been to this particular Ruth Chris for many years. I won't be returning to this specific lo Ruth Chris due to so many reasons. The first being the smell of the restaurant, it smelled like a litter box, it was awful. They need to clean the carpets ASAP. The second reason is I assume they are under new management and I will NOT assume but I had a less than stellar experience with the woman. I cannot mention her name because she didn't provide it. She did say I could not substitute a particular menu item, EVEN THOUGH IM ALLERGIC. I have been getting the same item for years with the substitution, I have pics of me at Ruth Chris within the last 6 months eating it. I was not satisfied overall and will visit Odenton to see if the $235.00 will be better spent... OH AND IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY 2-25

    I literally hate this downtown location!!! ONLY reason I stepped foot back in here was because of a party I was attending literally across the grass/walking distance. We wanted something very quick to eat and 1 drink. Service is so terrible, 1/10... food, ehhh... drinks were sweet like a pack of skittles. It was not crowded, maybe 2 other parties of 2-3ppl in the bar area... we had to ask the waiter, are you forgetting about us and his response "(blank stare).. uhh I was assisting my outside table"... if you can't handle TWO tables then you need to look into another field. Haven't been to this location in about 2/3 yrs and I'm done with them.. I'll starve before I everrrr come back in here!

    Lobster tails

    Family selected this destination for my step mothers 60th bday. Our reservation was around 8, it was mostly empty which was pleasing bc I'm still not a fan of crowded establishments (Covid and unhinged ppl). It was dimly lit, not too loud, and great environment for conversation. The service was a practically perfect, Michael was patient and gave us great feedback on items. He also was pretty sociable. For drinks, I ordered the strawberry mojito! The first variation of the drink was entirely tooooo sweet with too much strawberry so I sent it back. The second correction was better, mix of sweet and tart. I started off with the stuffed mushrooms. Nothing to run home about. For my mains, I had steak, lobster tails, sweet potato casserole, and Brussels. The steak was juicy, tender and seasoned absolutely perfectly. The char on it was impeccable. The lobster tails were cooked just right, each bite with the drawn butter was delectable. The Brussels were standard, flavorful and had crispy bits how I like. The star of the evening was the sweet potato casserole. I almost ordered the mash potatoes and then quickly came to my senses. If you've never ordered this dish, you're missing out. 100/10, it's a must. Thank me later.

    We came for a birthday dinner for my husband. We had a great time. Deeana was our server. She was attentive, prompt and went above and beyond and making our dinner memorable. Our food was excellent and tasted fantastic. The ribeye was delicious, the sweet potato casserole was tasty and the crust added a perfect touch. The ambience was nice and peaceful. The music was perfect environment. This was our first but certainly not our last. I can't say enough about how great our server was. The only thing I was not a fan of was the lobster bisque. The lobster was ok. But the bisque was not great to me.

    We have been to Ruth's Chris Steak House plenty of times in different locations. This is our first time here in Pier 5, and since my sister's family came to visit we wanted to let them try the good food and have a nice experience we used to have so we booked the table here. When we arrived, the table was ready and we didn't have to wait at all. Our server is a young petite lady, she greeted us briefly while walking away right before we sat down. Once we were about to sit down, my sister noticed one side of the seat couch had food all over, we assumed it was definitely from previous table and the server didn't clean it properly. We had to ask different server to help clean it up because we couldn't find our server anywhere. After the appetizer was served we still were missing one whole set of plate knife & fork and 2 cloth napkins. We had to ask another server for those because ,again, we couldn't find our server. Most of the food came out differently from how we had asked for and had to be sent back to recook. I was a bit uncomfortable when her napkin touched part of the food in the plate when she was carrying it back to recook. Also the food was served in a very small plate which makes it very hard to eat. Our server never refills our water even after we had finished the whole glass and we had to ask for refill ourselves. Overall, our experience from the food, service and attention we received was so awful I felt bad I took my family there. This was not something we would expect from a high end restaurant where we had to pay over $150 for a plate of steak. I wish I had read the review before going there otherwise we would have not gone there in the first place. The service definitely needs to be improved in order to get more customers. I now had no doubt why I could get a reservation last minute so easily. At this point we wouldn't go back there again. If you want to try Ruth's Chris Steak House I would suggest going to other locations.

    Came here tonight for my birthday dinner and couldn't of been more disappointed. The party sat behind us reeked of marijuana and the larger group in our section also did. We noticed the manager trying to distract from the smell with a hot plate of butter but it did not help. I understand it's a simple mistake but one of our orders wasn't put in, so we had to wait a bit longer. Also, our porterhouse was a burnt on the outside and just tasted like burnt meat. My espresso martini was spilt and half foam. The smell from everything made me nauseous and was just super underwhelming compared to our previous visits. Won't be back to this location for awhile. Manager and server didn't take notice, so $350 for a dinner for two. Not worth it. Dress code but a good amount dressed in casual wear.

    Caesar salad

    Worst delivery !!! Always screwed up !! 15 dollar salad of just lettuce and a 15 dollar plain Baked Potato unreal we were supposed to get a loaded!! Do not order from here!!!!! Not worth it!! Makes you think whats going on in the restaurant, we even called before about this problem, and I guess not worth fixing. It's sad to say goodbye to this Baltimore classic. Just too run down! No on has to eat here, there's way better places now!!!

The fries/chips were good, but there were so few in the basket I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to use some in my basket for another order. The fish was so over fried it was almost dry and had completely pulled away from the overly-battered coating. The slaw was the same slaw in a tiny cup you would get at any fast food or chain restaurant. The calamari was not overcooked, but had a strange taste that may have come from the incredible amount of oil they were sitting in. If the review was just based on my food, a solid 2*, but my friend got the salmon, and it looked pretty good and she liked it. Tip: don't order anything fried except the French fries.

Nice lemony, slightly spicy flavor. It came with a big side order of fries, some cole slaw, and a salad. It was "market price" and tonight was $40, which was very fair considering the quantity and quality of crabmeat. The waitress was super-friendly and attentive. Pleasant atmosphere, standard pub vibe. I wish we were staying in Baltimore longer so we could get back here; we had a really nice time.

The first thing you see is the bar. I went to the left and sat down at one of the tables. After a couple minutes a lady gives me a menu. After about a couple minutes I decided to go with wings and a burger. Only problem was, my server was busy serving about 6 different people at the bar. Finally after about 10 minutes I was able to order. I get my food 20 minutes later. I don't understand why it took so long when everybody just had drinks and I was the only one seated in the restaurant part. The wings(6 for $15) were just ok. I got honey old bay flavor. The flavor itself was good but the wings were not cooked all the way for the middle part was lukewarm. The Charm Cheeseburger($20) a half pound beef patty, cheddar, lettuce, tomato, red onion, on a brioche bun. I wanted bacon added which was 2 dollars more per the menu. The burger itself was actually decent and it comes with potato wedges. They forgot to put the bacon in there but I didnt want to wait for the server to let her know and then wait again just for bacon. At least they didnt charge me for it. Service, or lack there of was atrocious. Every period in between interactions took a long time. In closing, I spent 35 bucks plus tax and tip for bad service and overpriced mediocre food. My co worker had drinks here one night and told me it was way overpriced. If you want good food and/or drinks then go next door to the Water Street Tavern. Their food and service is great there.

    So absolutely horrible that I disputed the credit card charge…read more I have NEVER EVER done anything like this at any other point in my life. I can only remember it because of how awful the food tasted and how terribly prepared it was-I have never had food this bad in my whole life. It was about 2 years ago that i went, but I can picture the........meal, I guess we can call it.... that was placed in front of my face like it was yesterday. A steak. Simple, right? Nope. Not simple, not well made, not well cooked, not even the right cut. I ordered the Delmonico- I suppose the cut could be argued, so I won't even count that in leading to my disappointment. What came to my table resembled more of a Hungry Man Dinner Salisbury Steak, and it had hunks of raw fat in it, and it was covered in this awful brown, salty, peppercorn sludge-excuse me while i go vomit. My husband ordered the lamb chops-bad move. They tasted like they sat in their own blood for days-gamey, raw in the middle (again), and tough like shoe leather. Raw, and tough....? Weird, but true. Now, my husband and I both like our steak/lamb cooked medium rare to rare, but this really was raw. I'm also a HUGE fan of carpaccio, and tartare-but this meat was really disgusting-completely inedible. Oh yeah- I believe we were told by the wait staff that the restaurant was for people with "an aquired palate". Um.......a palate for shit? That was actually pretty amusing, and at this point I realized I was not fighting about the food I had ordered with anyone. Our entire meals were sent back, our bill was paid, and then it was deducted off of my credit card. Xanadu, by definition, is a place of great beauty, luxury, and contentment. Yeah. Not so much.

Had reservations but upon getting there and peeking through the glass doors I realized it wasn't entirely necessary as there was only one other couple eating dinner. The chic Asian styling coupled with the diner booths down the middle of the restaurant area provides an interesting contrast to one another. There is just something off with having neon spirals lit up on the walls with porcelain Buddhas and other deities staring at you while you eat in a booth. The place filled up half the dining area by the time we left, and I can't blame them as the place provides an interesting environment to dine and judging by the lounge area, grab a drink.
