Add Some Holiday Spirit with Craft Cocktails and Appetizers for the Table

Get the conversation going as you enjoy some delicious cocktails and appetizers this holiday season. Every Ruth’s Chris restaurant offers a wide selection of beer, red and white wines, and spirits for your entire party to enjoy.

We recommend trying our Nola Mule made with Reyka Icelandic vodka, orange bitters, and fever-tree ginger beer for a festive, yet familiar, feel. Our Manhattan Eastside, crafted with Woodford reserve bourbon, Domaine de Canton ginger, lemon, and Filthy® amarena cherries, will also give you a “Christmas in New York” experience.

Share some of our incredible appetizers with friends and family to add to the giving spirit. Our Sizzling Crab Cakes transport you to a holiday on the beach. Or, try our Veal Osso Buco Ravioli with saffron-infused pasta, sauteed baby spinach, and white wine demi-glace for a decadent mouthful before the main event.

Signature Sizzling Steaks and Delightful Entrees

We have so many entrees to choose from to keep anyone in your party happy, but our namesake is Ruth’s Chris Steak House for a reason. Our custom, aged-to-perfection Midwestern steaks are broiled at 1,800 degrees to lock in all the incredible corn-fed flavors. Served on a sizzling plate to keep your steak hot for each and every bite and finished with melted butter, there’s a steak for every palate.

If you’re looking for a classic that won’t disappoint, we recommend our New York Strip. If size and full-flavor are what you love, our T-bone is 24 ounces of deliciousness. Or, for those who love steak but want a more tender, smaller portion, try our filet.

For a special holiday treat, add one of our entrée complements like our lobster tail, blue cheese crust, or bearnaise sauce.

For those who’d like to indulge in something other than beef, we recommend our Fresh Whole Main Lobster, Lamb Chops, or our Stuffed Chicken Breast filled with garlic herb cheese and topped with lemon butter.
