    We used to always go to the Ruth's Chris in the Bethesda area, but that one closed a while back. So this is the closest one. We had happy hour here and it was great. The Zucchini fries was a bit less that before but everything else was the same but different price of course a bit more than before. They were quick to get our order and we were able to place pur drinks order right away and our happy hour food. It was very good. I loved it. I love the ambience too the chairs were comfortable and the seating wasn't too crowded unlike some places. This was a good location too, you can walk around afterwards.

    It's always a treat when I come to this place. The food was amazing. The service is always first class. The ambiance is cozy and classy.

    I've passed by Ruth's Chris many time and have not stopped. Recently I met with a friend to continue my birthday celebration, bit we didn't quite nake it for their happy hour. For our main appetizer we ordered the Calamari and Tuna, I've had many Calamari and Tuna appetizer before, but theirs was exceptionally tasty. Our choice of cocktais I had a 9 oz glass of their Cabernet, but I don't recall the brand, my friend had the old fashioned. Service was really good and fast, great staff and we loved the bartender he offered good recommendations. Since we weren't going to do table service and chose to sit at the bar the atmosphere was good, we were able to speak and hear each other. For your first visit to Ruth's Chris I recommend going during happy. I will revisit them during happy hour at some point when my schedule permits..

    Food, service, atmosphere, everything was amazing. Our server Brandon was great, he was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. He helped me pick the RC paper plane, he described the cocktail perfectly it was just like he said a bit sweet and smokey. We started with the small seafood tower, good selection of fresh seafood. I had the lamb chops, they were well seasoned, and so tender. Great date night place or if you're celebrating a special occasion.

    A truly outstanding experience. I've been to steakhouses all over the US and normally avoid chains but given my son's birthday wishes and the weirdly not-good options in the DC burbs Ruth's Chris won the toss. Holy cow was it a good call. Everyone in the family is super picky but me (ha). The place was about half full on a Sunday evening and enough bustle to make it fun. Of course it's all special occasions. The front desk staff set the tone, our waiter was charming and they have enough staff so someone is always around. I got a NOLA mule cocktail as it's a New Orleans based approach. In fact we stuck to a lot of the 'Ruth's Favorites' and I recommend it. Things are a bit spicy and there's plenty of remoulade and creamy stuff happening. So the food: they bring nice warm mini baguettes and butter. We got the house salad and the barbecue shrimp to start. Son didn't care for shrimp (which were great, big, and succulent so good for me) but enthusiastically mopped up that sauce with bread. Daughter got sea bass, huge chunk cooked like steak, excellent. Son got 'the filet' which was fantastic. Wife did too. I got a mini filet (8 oz) with 'Oscar style' which adds crab cake asparagus and a great bearnaise sauce. They were very kind about the birthday putting special glitter on the table, focusing on the guest of honor and putting out a cute little cheesecake for him at the end. My family said they wouldn't change a thing. I rarely give all the stars but, y'all earned it.

    Great steak house. Amazing food and wonderful service. The ambiance is formal and great for business lunch or dinner. Strongly recommend Ruth if you love meat and want to be in a calm environment.

    Kennedy is an amazing bartender. Everybody is super helpful, fully knowledgeable of the menu and this is a great place for a special occasion.

    Best lobster I've ever had. Forget the steak - get the lobster accompaniment. It was the most succulent juicy lobster I've ever had. It was not overcooked in the slightest. The steak was decent too but the lobster stole the attention for us for the night.

    I have only done take out at this location and the ambience is dark and moody. I don't particularly care for their design and color scheme, so aesthetically, it isn't pleasing to me. The staff are friendly and I haven't had any issues with the service. I ordered the lobster mac and I'd have to give it a 8/10. The Mac and cheese was very runny and I didn't care for that too much.

    I recently started a self-challenge that called for me to hit the gym no less than four times a week; I decided to reward myself after a month of my new routine with a delicious, high-protein dinner. My friend and I consulted with each other and then the Yelp app; our consensus was steaks at Ruth's Chris, so that's exactly what we did! Before this visit, I'd never been to their location in Gaithersburg before; I'm very happy to report that the food here was every bit as good as my most recent experience with the Manhattan Beach location in Southern California. The service here was exceptional as well :-) We shared our meal family-style. After seeing that the menu includes a full gamut of not only the regular, boneless steak choices but prime, bone-in steaks as well, we decided on a boneless NY Strip and a bone-in Filet. We specified that both steaks should be cooked medium-well, and when they arrived they were seasoned to perfection and cooked precisely as requested. The side dishes were very good, and the selection of wines available by the glass was not only reasonably priced by there was a surprisingly good selection. To be fair, the wines by the glass are about the only part of our meal here that was reasonably priced, but if you don't want to settle for anything less than an incredible steak dinner then I think you'll find that the food here is worth every penny!

    Classic Cheesecake

    Lesley Gore popularized the song titled It's My Party - with an opening line of "It's my party and I'll cry if I want to", well no tears at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse located on Crown Point Avenue, in Gaithersburg, MD. Through a generous gift card received as a volunteer, we enjoyed one of the most memorable meals - EVERY. Perfection is not often chosen to describe most of our dining experiences, however it is THE choice to describe the superior service provided by our server Lillian and in concert with the team behind the scene - perfecting our dinner selections. My choice was the petite fillet - medium well and the birthday girl chose the sizzling crab cake (trio). Seasoned, cooked and served to perfection by Lillian who could ask for more?! Desert menu please! Desert - having traveled for work extensively over the years, I've had the occasion to dine in many upscale restaurants, enjoy cheesecake in famous New York restaurants, however, the classic cheesecake accompanied by fresh berries and mint sprig served this night was the best ever. In fact those other experiences paled in comparison to the fresh, light and incredibly delicious treat. We generally don't chose fine dining when dining out and the experience at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, Gaithersburg has forever changed our minds! Thank you Ruth's Chris!

    The steak was cooked perfectly and the birthday dessert was a really sweet touch. I brought my boyfriend here for his birthday and we had a great time. The servers are so kind and attentive. The food is also great! I love the creamed spinach here because it's very light. Definitely a pricier spot as expected, but a good choice for special occasions :)

    Happy hour at the bar in the lounge area.

    Rather spend my money elsewhere. The steak was not very tasty and the presentation was poor.

The inside has bar seats, a small lounge area, and a high long table. Did I mention they also sell a bunch of wines, snacks, and more? They have events too, so I will have to check those out.

My fave was the Castella D'Alba (a red blend from Portugal). They offer charcuterie options. It's not a large space so if visiting with a group, reservations are recommended! I can't wait to visit again.

I first tried at Silver Spring on a date in July 2018. In fact, that was one of the dates where we went to Kung Fu Tea after dinner (see my 3-star review I just wrote of them). I was impressed with that location. So, in March 2019, I was happy my friend had his birthday party there. The same friend who went to BJ's Restaurant in Frederick (my last review I just wrote: see my 3-stars of them) also joined me for a movie & for the birthday party. She swayed me to get Prime Rib. And she was right! One of the best prime ribs out there. Ultimately, she became a girlfriend, and early on in that relationship, she really wanted to go back to Copper Canyon, and after a movie at RIO, we went again. Service was very good, and we enjoyed prime rib again. Prime rib comes with green beans & mashed potatoes, which are great too, but the real star is the prime rib itself. Interestingly, my girlfriend of that time ate the prime rib by herself on Friday, March 13, 2020. She joined me for 1 movie, I joined my friend for 2 movies, & he went to 3 movies on that Friday. He was understandably concerned the movie theaters were shutting down any day for Covid, and he wanted to get his AMC A-List 3 movies in for the week of March 13-19, 2020 and not break his 90+ week streak he had going of always getting his 3 movies in since he joined A-List. My friend & I had dinner at BGR before my 1st movie & his 2nd movie, which went out of business unfortunately, but BGR in Columbia is still there. Like my friend panicking about getting his 3 movies in, my girlfriend was being pragmatic saying I won't be able to have prime rib for a while as restaurants will shutdown for Covid. I was a bit jealous even though BGR was good; let's be honest Copper Canyon prime rib is even better! In December 2025, my girlfriend wanted to try Copper Canyon for her birthday since I had mentioned the place several times (including times I went with my ex). I realized there's one by Arundel Mills, which was great as I didn't want to schlep from my home to Largo, Silver Spring, or Gaithersburg in order of distance, none of which are close to my home today, which is only about 8 miles from Arundel Mills. That new location is my new favorite, but this one is a close 2nd place.

Some visit the servers are lovely and really engaged and then other times they will come by once and that's it. This visit our server wasn't very warming and came to check on us once. The ribs always come with a warm towel to clean your hands at the end but it was brought out with our plate... which made no sense because by the time we finished the ribs the towels were cold. Previously we have gotten the towels at the end of the meal to clean our hands. The restaurant itself is beautiful and a very nice date night vibe.
