Chef's Summer Selections
A TASTE
OF THE SEASON
For the main course, indulge in our Petite Filet & Lobster Tail pairing and enjoy a tender filet alongside a cold water lobster tail for the perfect surf and turf combination. We’re also showcasing a Black Cod with Lobster & Shrimp Risotto — cajun butter-crusted black cod served over a rich, decadent risotto layered with lobster and shrimp. Or lean into luxury with our Twin Lobster Tail entree, featuring two cold water lobster tails, cajun-dusted and broiled to perfection, served with warm drawn butter.
To complement the menu, we’re featuring a seasonal cocktail lineup including our Passion Fruit Martini and Spicy Strawberry Margarita — fun and fruity, yet well balanced, cocktails designed for warm-weather dining.
No matter what you choose, every dish and cocktail is prepared with the precision, care and uncompromising standards that define the Ruth’s Chris Steak House experience. We invite you to sip and savor in style this summer.
