New Year’s resolutions usually start with the best intentions.

More connection. Better balance. Showing up for the people you love instead of letting busy schedules take over. By mid-January, that energy can fade if you are not careful. One of the easiest ways to stay on track is to put something on the calendar — an entry that gives you something to look forward to. 

Planning a group outing with friends at Ruth’s Chris Steak House is one of those choices that supports your resolution without feeling like work. It creates space to slow down, sit together, and actually talk. No rushed meals. No shouting over loud music. Just good food, warm service, and the kind of environment that invites group gatherings and collective conversations.

An Elegant Dining Room Designed for Real Conversation

Ruth’s Chris has a classic way of helping people settle in. The lighting in the dining room is soft. The tables are spaced comfortably. You can hear what the people around you are saying without having to lean over the table. 

Conversation flows naturally here. You can catch up on life updates, laugh about old stories, or talk about what you want this year to look like. There’s no pressure to rush through your exquisite meal and fun drinks at Ruth’s Chris Steak House

Food That Brings Everyone Together

Sharing a great meal has always been a way for folks to come together. At Ruth’s Chris, we understand that tastes vary in a large group. That’s why our menu is carefully curated to offer a wide selection of appetizers and entrees. From the Chilled Seafood Tower that pairs beautifully with a glass of Collet Brut Champagne to the saffron-fused Veal Osso Bucco Ravioli, there’s a starter for everyone on the menu. 

As always, the sizzling steaks at Ruth’s Chris are the star of the show. We specialize in the finest custom-aged Midwestern beef. Each cut will be cooked to your order in an 1,800-degree oven, and served on a hot plate to maintain its flavor to the last bite. 

For those who prefer to skip the steak, Ruth’s Chris has a stuffed chicken that keeps guests coming back time and time again (yes, the chicken). And there are even great vegetarian options when you combine some of the signature sides for a tasty veggie plate. Think pan roasted cremini mushrooms, grilled asparagus with hollandaise sauce and our famous sweet potato casserole with crunch pecan topping. 

Set the Tone with Your Favorite Drinks

Drinks have long become part of the ritual of group gatherings. At Ruth’s Chris, we invite you to explore our extensive drinks menu and choose what matches your mood. We have a thoughtful selection of white, rose and red wines, as well as an exciting selection of handcrafted classic cocktails. Ruth’s Chris also offers a variety of zero-proof options featuring Ritual NA Spirit Alternatives, such as the Havana Nights with rum alternative, cinnamon syrup, lime juice and a hint of tonic, which looks as fun as it tastes.
