Start Your Meal with Seafood Appetizers from Ruth’s Chris
Good news, pescatarians: The appetizers section of our menu consists almost entirely of seafood, so you’ll have no shortage of delicious options for your first course.
If you like shrimp, you’re in luck, because you will find a number of shrimp preparations among our starters: New Orleans style in a savory white wine reduction, fried in a spicy cream sauce, or poached and chilled with classic dipping sauces.
Take a closer look at our seafood appetizers below:
- Shrimp: Barbecued Shrimp, Spicy Shrimp, Shrimp Cocktail or Remoulade
- Crab: Sizzling Crab Cakes, Stuffed Mushrooms
- Miscellaneous Seafood: Seared Ahi Tuna, Chilled Seafood Tower (Maine lobster, Alaskan king crab legs, jumbo shrimp, colossal lump crabmeat, etc.)
You can also start your meal with a salad. Our classic Caesar Salad and House Salad are both meat-free and delicious, and you can order any of our other salads without bacon. Just talk to your server ahead of time to make sure he or she knows you are a pescatarian.
