Why everyone keeps coming back.
Situated in the heart of Rochester, MN, Ruth’s Chris Steak House offers an impeccable fine dining experience specializing in American cuisine with a sophisticated edge. Renowned for its USDA Prime steaks, the menu features standout cuts like the 16 oz Ribeye, the hearty 24 oz T-Bone, and the extravagant 40 oz Tomahawk Ribeye, each seared to perfection and expertly prepared to showcase the robust, natural flavors of premium beef. Whether you prefer the classic 16 oz New York Strip or crave the indulgence of the 40 oz Porterhouse for two, every steak promises a richly satisfying, melt-in-your-mouth experience.
Pair your entrée with one of Ruth’s Chris’s signature complements that elevate your meal to new heights: the succulent grilled shrimp, a sizzling North Atlantic lobster tail drizzled with warm drawn butter, or the decadent Oscar Style topping featuring lump crab cake, asparagus, and béarnaise sauce. For those who appreciate nuanced complexity, the truffle or bleu cheese crusts add luxurious layers of flavor melding earthy truffle butter or tangy roasted garlic with perfectly crisped bits.
No steakhouse experience is complete without the perfect side, and Ruth’s Chris delivers with rich and hearty options like the classic baked potato generously loaded with applewood-smoked bacon and chives, creamy garlic mashed potatoes bursting with roasted garlic depth, indulgent potatoes au gratin smothered in three cheese sauce, or the wonderfully decadent lobster mac & cheese featuring tender Maine lobster folded into creamy white cheddar sauce alongside tender cavatappi pasta.
The ambiance here is as captivating as the food itself. The dimly lit, elegantly appointed dining room creates a warm, inviting atmosphere ideal for celebrating special moments or enjoying a refined evening out.
