Best Steak Restaurants in South Orange

Excellent dinner tonight with impeccable service by server Hillary. 1st time @ Ruth Chris. We will be returning for sure.

Food was very good! But the noise level was too much. Actually, extremely loud! The table next to us had 3 young women who were literally screaming through their drinks & meals….making it very uncomfortable for my family to enjoy our meal and reasonable volume conversation. It would’ve been nice for a manager to address them. I left feeling they had a sense of entitlement and no one wanted to say anything to them. A ruined evening and experience.

Great experience! We have one suggestion, it would be a great idea to serve the baked potato with warmed butter. Overall, great meal.

Seated on the upper level of the dining room we had a grand view of the Tiffany ceiling, and it was much less noisy than the main floor or the red dog. At the close of the meal we were serenaded by the wonderful Brynn Stanley and her pianist, and we spent a happy hour post meal listening to them perform holiday and jazz favorites. A great way to begin the last weekend before Christmas!

My recent visit to Ruth’s Chris Steak House was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived, we were treated to an evening of impeccable hospitality that truly made us feel special. The team went above and beyond, especially in recognizing my wife’s birthday, which added a thoughtful and personal touch to the night. Our waiter, Lonny, was absolutely fantastic. His attention to detail, warm demeanor, and expert knowledge of the menu elevated the entire dining experience. Lonny helped us choose the perfect dishes and wine pairings, ensuring every bite and sip was nothing less than perfect. A special shout-out to Sous Chef Alvaro Diaz, whose culinary expertise shone through in every dish. The sizzling steaks were cooked to absolute perfection—rich, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth tender. The sides were equally impressive, with the creamy mashed potatoes and the lobster mac and cheese being true standouts. It’s clear that Chef Diaz pours his heart and soul into creating a memorable dining experience. What truly set the evening apart was the way the staff went out of their way to celebrate my wife’s birthday. From the personalized greeting to the thoughtful dessert surprise, it was a moment we’ll cherish forever. If you’re looking for a fine dining experience that combines exceptional food with world-class service, Ruth’s Chris is the place to go. Thank you to Lonny, Chef Diaz, and the entire team for making the night so unforgettable.
