My wife and I had a great time at Ruth's Chris. Everything was delicious and service was very professional. This location was easy to find. The parking unfortunately is very chaotic and it's a small lot. read more

We came here for a birthday dinner and it was such a fantastic experience! We loved the ambiance, food and service. We were able to order their early bird special where it comes with a starter, entree and dessert. I got a Caesar salad as my starter and it was a classic Caesar salad that was pretty good. I tried my boyfriend's seafood gumbo and I liked that too. Everyone in our party got the steak and lobster and I really enjoyed that! Both the steak and lobster were cooked perfectly. The garlic mashed potatoes were creamy and the perfect side dish. For dessert, we were able to upgrade from ice cream for an additional charge, so we got the chocolate cake and the creme brulee. Both tasted anazing and the perfect way to end the meal. Our server was great and checked up on us often. The food came out in a timely manner, and the early bird special was just the right amount-filling without being too much. read more

Everything about tonight's meal was excellent! Kyle and Sean were our servers and they did a great job. Very helpful, friendly and efficient. I ordered the 16 oz Ribeye with shrimp and mashed potatoes and my wife ordered the sea bass with asparagus. We thoroughly enjoyed each dish. The creme brulee at the end was also very good. We were there because we were celebrating my wife's first SS check so Sean and Kyle gave us a special dessert. Strawberries with a chocolate sauce and rum(?). Very cool when they light the rum up. We will definitely be back and would ask for Kyle and Sean again! read more

If you're looking for a solid birthday dinner spot, Ruth's Chris in Honolulu never misses. They really know how to make the birthday person feel special -- complimentary champagne and a strawberry flambé to celebrate. Small touches like that go a long way. Service? On point. Shoutout to Dave (David) who absolutely nailed it. You can always tell when you've got a pro -- water glasses never empty, plates cleared without you even noticing, checking in at the right times without hovering. That's next-level hospitality. Food is consistently solid. Of course the steaks are amazing but if you're not in the steak mood, the scallops and sea bass are legit options. And that lobster mac & cheese side dish? Massive. Parking validated and free. Pro tip: They run a prix fixe menu from 4-6pm that can save you some money if you time it right. Overall -- dependable, classy, and perfect for a birthday dinner when you want to keep it special without guessing if the food will hit. read more

We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary at Ruth's Chris Steak House, and the experience was truly special from start to finish. When I made the reservation, I noted that we were celebrating our anniversary, and the restaurant went above and beyond to acknowledge it. Upon arrival, we were led to a table beautifully adorned with rose petals, and every staff member who passed by took a moment to wish us a happy anniversary. Shortly after being seated, we were also treated to two complimentary glasses of champagne, which set a perfectly celebratory tone for the evening. The winter menu was outstanding. I ordered the tenderloin with a jumbo lobster tail, both cooked to perfection. My husband was very happy with his New York strip, and we also shared an entrée of scallops--because we never pass up the opportunity to enjoy fantastic scallops, and these did not disappoint. Although we were far too full for dessert, the team surprised us with flaming strawberries, served with dark chocolate and raspberry sauce, to help us celebrate--an unforgettable and thoughtful finish. Overall, the service, food, and attention to detail were exceptional. My only suggestion would be to slightly increase the music volume in the dining room. While the restroom music was quite loud, it was barely noticeable in the dining area, and a bit more ambiance would have helped drown out nearby conversations. It was a wonderful experience and a perfect place to celebrate such a meaningful milestone. read more

I swore off Ruth's Chris Steak House but here I am. Sadly, this time it wasn't much better than the last We started with crabmeat stuffed mushrooms. I didn't taste any crabmeat stuffing in the mushrooms... perhaps because the garlic in the stuffing was so overpowering I could not eat it. Instead I took out the stuffing and ate only the mushroom. For our entree he ordered a Ribeye and I had the 8 oz Petite Filet. His steak was good but a little over cooked even though he ordered a medium rare. I ordered a medium Petite Filet and it was under cooked... more like rare - medium rare. Maybe the kitchen mixed up our steak doneness.. I don't know but I did bring it up to the manager when he asked how our meal was going. Since we were celebrating a birthday they brought a complementary Strawberry flambé. Very nice touch and so nice to look at then it's flaming BUT they use so much alcohol that you cannot avoid it when eating the strawberries. Very strong liquor flavor so it's hard to eat if you are not a drinker. Service was okay. Also, even though I was not happy with previous visits, I consider Ruth's Chris a better restaurant... perhaps if you served your food on a cleaner plate it will give a little classier feel rather than on the same level as Zippy's. In a nutshell.. I will not return. For real this time. read more

We planned our wedding reception dinner for the past year. Traci was incredible to work with for the planning process. We treated our guests to the Premiere dinner for 20 people. The private room was cozy and great for large gatherings. We had our appetizers and sides served family style. The shrimp cocktail was amazing and the shrimp were large and cook perfectly! We also had a choice of steakhouse salad or Caesar salad. The crab stuffed mushrooms were tasty and delicious! The sides were broccoli, asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes and all were wonderful. The steak was cooked perfectly with the sizzling feature which I didn't know it was what Ruth Chris is known for. I will definitely be trying the Las Vegas locations. Thank you Traci for a memorable experience! read more

Group of 12 for gf's bday. Put us in the side room...which is good since we can get loud. Food was ono as usual. I think they missed a dish so ended up comping it. Packed leftovers up nicely. The kickers...beads given to Baby when we got there, and then later a balloon into a gummy bear for Baby. She loved it all. She also grinded bread and ravioli. If she's happy, I'm happy. read more

I go to Ruth's Chris pretty often--both in Waikiki and Downtown--and the servers are always friendly and attentive, which makes every visit pleasant. That said, the steak can be a real gamble. Sometimes it's absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked and full of flavor, but other times it's just disappointing. The inconsistency is a bit frustrating, especially for a place with such a reputation. If you hit it right, it's amazing; if not, it feels like a waste. Still, the service keeps me coming back, and the locations are convenient for both touristy Waikiki and downtown outings. read more

My friend and I dined here last night to celebrate personal achievements and we really enjoyed our meal here! It's been a while since I had come to this steakhouse, but I'm not sure why we ever stopped! Our server Mel was amazing and friendly. She offered us complimentary champagne and a strawberry dessert dish to celebrate, which we really appreciated. We both had the pre fixe menu which comes with an appetizer, entree, side and dessert. We enjoyed our food! Steak was cooked great, lobster too. Salad was generous and sides were tasty. We learned that my friend is not a fan of creamed spinach (lol) but I enjoyed it. A little bit less creamy than other places which was preferred. Desserts were all amazing. I think this is something that might set Ruth's Chris apart from Morton's or Hy's. Both bread pudding and cheesecake were sooooo ono! We were too full so we didn't finish it, but believe me, I wanted to. Overall, so satisfied with my experience at Ruth's Chris! They generously gave a coupon for a free appetizer and will definitely bring my family back to use it. I think a lot of steakhouses have great food, but Ruth's Chris service (and desserts) are top notch. read more

Today 8/24/25 my daughter's 26th birthday. We decided to order takeout from Ruth's Chris steak house. We ordered 3 ribeye steaks , 3 potatoes au gratin, and 3 sweet potato casserole. We normally go in to eat , but my daughter wanted to order and stay in to relax and watch movies together . The co food was absolutely amazing . The steak was nice and tender . We always celebrate here or our favorite Italian restaurant. They gave extra bread and our bearnaise sauce as requested . Excellent customer service when we picked up or food to go. In my opinion this is the best steak on the island . read more

Ruth's Chris Steak House - Cowboy ribeye steak , POTATOES AU GRATIN, and SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE. - Steakhouses Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

EDIT: Updating the below review from 1 star to 3. I understand my experience was a one off and not the Ruth's standard. I was contacted by someone from corporate who assured me they did an investigation and there wasn't a wide spread outbreak of food borne pathogens. The service I received on my visits was very positive, and the response by corporate was satisfactory. I'll be giving them another shot soon. This was my first and likely last visit to Ruth's Chris. To give credit where it's due, the ambience and service were good, and the food tasted great at the table. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. Before I proceed, please understand, I really don't like leaving negative reviews unless absolutely necessary. But, here we go... I dined here for dinner with friends on December 23rd. We shared the shrimp dinner as an entrée, I ordered the cowboy ribeye cooked medium rare, and my friend ordered the ribeye, also medium rare -- a completely standard order at any steakhouse. By 2:15am, I was extremely sick with what was clearly food poisoning. My friend also became sick. I spent the entire night dealing with severe stomach issues, missed a day of work, and had a ruined Christmas Eve and a rough Christmas morning. I called the restaurant on 12/24 and spoke with a manager, who later called me back and assured me that someone from corporate would be contacting me. It has now been one week, and there has been no follow-up whatsoever. I've also noticed a recent pattern of 1-star reviews, which makes me question whether this is an issue with this particular location or something broader -- either way, it's not a good look for the brand. For a restaurant at this price point -- where you're spending hundreds of dollars -- both the food safety issue and lack of accountability are unacceptable. For the money spent, I would have been far better off at Hy's, Eating House, Wolfgang's, or honestly almost anywhere else. I really wanted to like this place, but between the illness, missed work, ruined holiday, and zero follow-up, this experience was unacceptable. read more

***Ruth's Chris Steak Honolulu*** Walking into Ruth's Chris Steak House felt like stepping back into an old, familiar memory. The moment I walked through the doors, everything I loved about this place came rushing back -- the same great food, the spotless dining room, and that unmistakable aroma of dishes cooked to absolute perfection drifting from table to table. Nick, our waiter, was sharp, attentive, and genuinely funny, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the evening. I also really appreciated Kevin's company -- great food paired with great people always makes for an unforgettable experience. All around, it was everything I hoped for and more. A perfect meal, a warm atmosphere, and a wonderful way to close out the New Year. Happy New Year Everyone Marie read more

I'm so glad that we got to dined in to celebrate my birthday one day before my actual birthday. Due to the weather condition. My husband did call ahead of time to see if they were still open for business and they were. I can't wait to go back and do happy hour next time! read more

This is one of our favorite steakhouses on the island. The steaks are always cooked to our specifications, and the service is on point without being too stuffy. We always order the ribeye medium-rare. The steak here is served with a LOT of butter. Just FYI, in case that's not to your liking. It's juicy, hot, and perfectly cooked. I love the lobster mac and cheese as a side, as well as the fries. We got the creamed spinach last time, which was nice but not my favorite. For apps, we got the calamari, which was really good too. For cocktails, I always get my go-to martini, gin & dirty (with olives). They make a STRONG one here. Which is perfect for me! The service was excellent, and our server was very attentive. The steaks were taking a little longer than usual last time, but we had appetizers and drinks to tide us over. We also received a complimentary dessert (flaming strawberries) for my husband's birthday during our last visit, which was a nice gesture. I like the booths at the restaurant, and the lighting is dim and romantic. It feels special without being too uptight, and I love that. Highly recommend for your next date night or special occasion! read more

We celebrated our Anniversary at our favorite Steakhouse "Ruth's Chris". Impeccable service from the front to the back. Tonight we sat in the main dining room which was quite nice. For appetizers we had the Mushrooms stuffed with crabmeat. Very tasty and light on the palette. We split a Chopped Salad and ordered the Stuffed Chicken Breast and the Cowboy Ribeye with a Loaded Baked Potato. They make an awesome Stuffed Chicken Breast, love that crispy skin! My Cowboy Ribeye was cooked to perfection. Medium rare and seasoned perfectly. For dessert we were treated to the Strawberry Flambé. We also ordered the Chefs Seasonal cake "Carrot Cake". A totally decadent cake very rich and flavorful. Good thing we ordered it Ala Mode. The vanilla ice cream was a perfect pairing for the cake. read more

Ruth's Chris Steak House in Restaurant Row absolutely nails Happy Hour. Dropped in mid-week for their 4-6:30pm deals--$9 Dirty Martini was smooth perfection, and the $18 Ahi Poke Tuna Stack starter was a fresh, towering delight with layers of sashimi-grade tuna, avocado, and crispy wontons that vanished in minutes. $12 mini filet sliders? Tender, sizzling beef with that signature buttery sear--paired flawlessly with truffle fries for just $8 more. Bartenders were pros, vibe was upscale yet chill with harbor views, and service never missed a beat despite the crowd. Pro move for Waikiki: elevated bites without full dinner prices. read more

We came here as a family to celebrate a birthday. I made reservations through open table and it was easy. We arriving, we were greeted by the hostess and they made sure our parking was validated. Our waiter was very informative as it was our visit time dining. Our food came out and was very delicious. The kids ordered through their kids menu and loved their steak as well. 3/4 of us were done eating but my little one was still eating, one of the waiters helper took all of our plates, to include my little one's plate who was still eating and had a fork in her hand, with a good amount of food still on the plate. It was a bit disappointing, and she was sad. Maybe he was a new employee, but I'd suggest eye contact and asking before just taking. Everything else was good, it was nice for us to get dressed nicely and go out to eat. Our kids were the only ones besides the one that reserved a whole private room. So I would say it's family friendly. read more

Food was delicious. We had a party of 7 and our server was very well knowledged on the food and gave us amazing recommendations. I really enjoyed all the side dishes! Lobster mac and cheese was most definitely my favorite. Had a lot of lobster and was a huge portion. Would go again just to order that mac and cheese. Cheesecake was sooo good!! From cream to crust it was so ono, and they give a big portion of cheesecake too. They gave us a complimentary strawberry birthday dessert that they set on fire, it personally wasn't for me so everyone else ate it. They also gave us a happy birthday card at the end, amazing service overall! read more

I took my daughter here for a mommy daughter date. Which happened to be on Thanksgiving. So that we didn't have to cook. I made a reservation through open table app. This location has garage parking behind the building. I parked in the garage. Make sure to take your ticket for validated parking stamp. Of course it was packed due to holiday. I checked in and went back to my car. Until they called my cellphone to say the table was ready. They didn't have a seating area big enough for how many people were waiting to be seated. I'm not sure if they had reservations or walk in. I highly suggest make a reservation for here. It was very nice and elegant. Surprisingly not super loud based on how much people was there. Both waiters were nice and funny. We joked throughout the night. They did tell me the sides were shareable. As you can see they were right. I ordered the Steak and Mac and Cheese. You can't come here without getting steak. The food was cooked well but lacked flavor. They ran out of mashed potatoes. Overall we had a good time and enjoyed not cooking. read more

We ate here on 01/21/2025 with a party of nine people. It is conveniently located near the waterfront on the very Western end of the primary part of the tourist area. Parking is convenient, and it is a set rate in a underground garage after 5pm. The service was so good, and our server was absolutely great. The dining room appeared a little bit dated; however, the food and service made up for that. I had the filet, cooked medium well, and it was done wonderfully, cooking the remainder of the way on the 500 degree plate with butter. I got the blue cheese crust on the filet. Our table shared quite a few sides including the lobster mac n cheese, which was amazing, as well as the au gratin potatoes and broccoli. I even shared some bread pudding for dessert. Of course, I can't forgot the two awesome mango mules that I had, as well as my portion of the Seafood tower which quickly went between our Party of Nine. Overall, a wonderful experience and I would definitely return again. read more

Ruth's Chris at this location is still one of my top favorite steak restaurants. The menu has changed since my last visit, renaming the Early Bird to Pre-Fix, and adding a few new items, such as Seafood Gumbo. I liked the Seafood Gumbo, as well as Lobster & Filet Mignon. And the same old yummy Chocolate Sin Cake. The Mai Tai was a bit on a sweeter side, yet it was nice and moderately strong. read more

Our annual go to anniversary treat will always be Ruth Chris steakhouse; it's a tradition. We enjoy other steak houses on our island but this restaurant is our Ho yo when we crave a sizzling juicy steak and my favorite creamed spinach. It's definitely old school fine steak house style with dark tones, candle lit tables and rose petals that signifies it's our special day. And we always look forward to our flaming chocolate strawberries at the end of a perfect meal. Nick was our service provider and he was so enjoyable to talk story and he definitely made us feel special throughout our meal. If you enjoy sizzling steaks and grilled lamb and if you especially enjoy great service; you will not be disappointed. PS the carrot cake and bread puffing was onolicious too read more

Someone asked me to go to Ruth Steakhouse and this brought back this horrible experience. 7 years later...I still havent been back here because of this experience. The real reason why I havent been back is because someone did followup with me on this complaint and instead of taking this seriously, they told me that this waitress was their best employee. This really stuck with me. read more

My wife and I had a reservation for our anniversary and arrived for our dinner on Saturday May 2nd around 5:45 pm. The asian women running the front desk was very rude and raised her voice to us and told my wife that she needed to speak louder when checking in and then to have a seat and wait (like we have a reservation shouldn't our table be ready?). We were taught to use our indoor voices especially in a classy place like Ruth's Chris Steakhouse as their really was no need to speak loudly, the asian woman was not elderly and if she needs to hear better she should probably get a hearing aid, we shouldn't be asked to speak louder. Our waiter Kyle was great and provided excellent customer service and even gave us a cool strawberry dessert and coupon because we were celebrating our anniversary. Front desk please work on your customer service for you don't know who your customers are and you should treat them with more respect. We did not go to Mcdonalds for dinner we are paying good money to have a nice dinner at Ruth's Chris and should be treated appropriately. read more

Located in Restaurant Row this place was open for lunch on Mother's Day! Large covered parking garage. Free with validation. Hostesses were very friendly and welcoming. We got the nice quiet booth in the back we requested. Carlson was an excellent server and made sure we were well taken care of despite being busy and a large party as well. Informed us of the special menu, have some good suggestions and pointers. Very professional and fun without being obtrusive. Special menu today but we stuck with what we knew- Mimosa was on point, crab stuffed mushrooms with lotsa crab, Caesar salad had a little too much dressing this time but we managed, ravioli, and the chocolate cake with ice cream was the star of the day! Carlson brought a complimentary strawberries flambé for dessert which we loved and warned us not to blow out the flame lol which I might have done- he was just a delightful server and his busser made sure our plates were cleared and waters refilled. Upon leaving, the hostess opened the door for us and thanked us asking us to have a nice rest of our day. That hasn't happened in a long time at any other restaurant. Nice job to all staff, manager, GM and Ruth's Chris Ala Mo! Wish you were open for lunch again! read more

We stopped here for some drinks before my friend had to board her ship before it leaves for the next island. We all did 2 drinks each and I ended up getting a seafood tower also to enjoy. Service was great and the seafood was fresh as always. We didn't have much time to enjoy anything else because we had to drop her off and was on a time limit. I'll be back next time for my favorite Stuffed Chicken Breast with Creamed Spinach and Mash. read more

I dined here on a weeknight for a business function. We had a private room and a prix fixe dinner which included: bread, butter, salad, 2 sides, dessert, choice of entree and unlimited pours of the house wines. My favorites were the spinach side and the wine pours. The salad and bread were very good. The salmon, mashed potato, and cheesecake were ok but not outstanding. The salmon portion was generous, but the fish was not succulent or tender and the heavy sauce and toppings were not enough to compensate. The mashed potatoes were likewise a tad dry and under seasoned. The cheesecake was fairly fresh and soft, the fresh fruit was a nice touch, but the coulis drizzle was hard and stuck to the plate so you couldn't really taste it or eat it as part of the dish. I commend the service which was overall exceptional and a good reason to go back. read more

This review is only for the Happy Hour. Good food, great service, less than desirable dining space as the new corporate policy requires all happy hour diners to be seated in the outside dining area where the hot evening sun beats down on you and whiffs of "interesting " odors manifest with the changing wind direction. I asked, instead of sitting in the lounge, can we sit at the bar and have happy hour... "No you cannot sir". But doesn't that violate every unwritten cosmic rule about going to happy hour? George, our waiter was stellar! Charming, friendly and super attentive. We ordered 5 items from the happy hour menu. The Osso Buco Stuffed Raviloi served with a veal stock demi glacé stood out. Thin but firm to the bite with a nice elasticity. The veal demi glacé added a wonderful broth like moisture to the dish. The BBQ Shrimp in garlic butter and spices was also a crowd pleaser. Shrimp cooked to a perfect firmness and coated with a velvety garlic butter that taunts you to sponge it up with a hunk of French bread. The Calamari with Thai Chili sauce and Ahi Poke got honorable mentions as they delivered on their expectations but didn't hit any notes that perked the judges ears. The Stuffed Crab Mushrooms missed the mark as they were dry and lacked flavor. Frankly, this dish should be wrapped up, put in a time machine and get sent back to 80s. When we left, there were exactly 2 people in the lounge, which begs the question, who were they saving the space for? Not sure if I understand the corporate concept of saving the space for possible future customers, while providing a less than desirable environment for the customers who are presently there willing and able to spend $$. Given the seating arrangements, I can't see returning to this location to sweat out another happy hour meal. Happy Eating! read more
