Ruth's Chris Steak House

Seriously overpriced. I ate alone as my travel companion was not feeling well. I had a salad for $9 that was a reasonable size but not large enough to have shared. But $46 for a steak! Supposedly USDA prime and a decent piece of meat, but not nearly as good as the rib eye that I had the previous week at El Gaucho for $29 (and that included three sides). The bread was delicious and hot. Service was upscale but after my meal was served I never saw my server, just the "water lady". I wouldn't go back since there are other, better options. The $89 meal deal didn't help since I was only one person and I didn't like any of the 4 entree options. They offer a 22 oz lobster tail (seriously large) - for $110. I wonder how many of those are sold.

Yay! This meal made me sooo happy. A great salad, great filet mignon, great dessert! And fabulous drinks. Oh yeah, they had a special: two meals off the prix fixe menu for $89 - TOTAL. Does it get better than that - NO!

My husband and I ate here this past June while we were staying at the Surf Club. We chose this restaurant because it was within walking distance and we thought they had a promotion that would make our dining here affordable. Needless to say, the promotion had not started yet, but we decided "what the heck we're on vacation, let's give it a try." I must say that I had no intention on eating at a "chain" restaurant when we were in Aruba, but I'm so glad we did. This was by far the best meal and service we had the whole week.

This was our first meal on the island after a long day of traveling and it was the right decision. Very relaxing upscale environment. One of the better Ruth's Chris we've eaten at. Salads & App's are fantastic (BBQ Shrimp are out of this world!). Service was very attentive. Steaks were cooked to perfection and came out with the signature Ruth's sizzle. Marriott made an excellent decision to include this restaurant on their resort property.

The bread comes out hot and very very good. apps were great. The lobster bisque was tasty and it was a bowl not a cup, and the salad was plenty big too. We both got a filet and it was a wonderful cut of meat and cooked just right. The butter was a little much but it does make the dish. The dessert was HUGE!!! It was pricy, paying $175 for dinner IS high, BUT we don't usually get Apps AND dessert so it doesn't have to be that much. You may want to have a few beers before you get there but... I left there FULL AND HAPPY so it was worth the money.
I would make this a must have when visiting the island!!

In my view overpriced for the same food quality as many of the other steakhouses on the island. Service was excellent but the steak plates are too small to get much of anything else on and sides are huge (Ok, you are certainly paying for that much but you need to share them). We spent $210 on dinner for 2 including a bottle of wine (wine list is another thing that is hardly cheap) and I know many restaurants on the island where you could get 2 good meals (including wine both times)for that money. My advice is go elsewhere!

Overpriced and pretentious, but man is the food good. $43 for a medium size filet is unnecessarily expensive; and what's the deal with charging and extra $8.95 for a side? Bottom line is it's really hard to spend less than $70 per person. Still, worth the splurge.

My husband and I recently had the opportunity to dine in the new Ruth's Chris in Aruba. The restaurant is gorgeous. We have eaten at many places in Aruba and this is completely different from all others. Elegant, but not stuffy. The wait staff were friendly and helpful. Our food was served piping hot and done to perfection. I tried the lobster tail and my husband had the filet. Both were great. Our sides were enough to have fed twice as many people. For dessert, we had the cheesecake and fresh berries with creme. Both to die for. We will definitely be back and will recommend to all our friends. What a pleasure to have such high quality arrive on the island!

We have eaten at Ruth Chris in Bethesda and had a great experiance! In Aruba it's new and there is room for improvement. Last night we had a reservation at 6pm and arrived on time when they opened. Asked for best available table 95% vacant. The table offered was in a congested area of tables so we asked for a booth which was then offered. We ordered a salad and requested no onions. The server said there would only be fried onions on top. When the order was received the salad onions inside were overpowering and we had to return it. The second salad was great! We ordered Filet and my wife ordered hers medium. It arrived bloody and was returned. When it came back the filet was medium rare but we kept it anyway. We felt rushed by the wait staff as they tried to clear our table before we were finished twice. we ordered no desert and left with indidestion. I hope next year is better. We will try again.
