“ Going to Ruth Chris was a spontaneous decision. We had traveled to West Des Moines for a birthdayshopping day out for my daughter and were looking for restaurants online. Ruth Chris came up and my daughter, who had never been there before gave me a please mom look. I saw a picture of the 24 lunch menu items and that was a price I was willing to pay for a quick but special lunch. We enjoyed our meals so much, soup and salad for me, beef sliders for my daughter. The service and atmosphere gave us a chance to enjoy each others company quietly. She is a college student so I dont see her often. We shared the flourless chocolate dessert and then were delightfully surprised with a piece of cheesecake to go for her for her birthday. The one less star for atmosphere was the annoying espn show on the tv above the bar but otherwise everything was like a little retreat. Thank you. ”

“ Valentines Day reservations 430 we were seated with in a few minutes . The service was top notch and very friendly, the ambiance was spectacular, the food was good after we sent our steaks back to be cooked to the proper temperature. We ordered Medium and they came out Rare. Not only our table the table next to me also sent their steaks back. Even with the temperature wrong the first time, we had a wonderful experience dining here. It was very romantic and the lady at the front even was nice enough to take some beautiful pictures for me to remember! ”

“ We booked the wine room for a 4 person business meeting to speak with a potential investor and it was perfect! The wine room is perfect if youre needing to have a small meeting, have amazing food, and need the ability to hear everyone at the table. The food and service was absolutely top notch and this is one of the most beautiful restaurants Ive ever been to. We told our waiter before hand that we would be in a very important meeting and so we didnt want to be interrupted too much and he did just that. Around enough to keep us topped off on drinks and orders in on time but did not interrupt when it wasnt necessary. Overall a wonderful experience! ”

“ My husband and I went to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We were greeted and seated immediately at a wonderful table with rose petals on the table. Johnny was our waiter. He was absolutely fabulous and made the experience so special! Now the food. It was superbly prepared and displayed and delicious! The lemon basil salad dressing is my favorite! I would absolutely recommend this to everyone! ”

“ A 5 Star!!! I recently contacted the restaurant stating that I would like to take my now fiance to dinner there so I could propose and I wanted to make it the most special night ever for her. They put me in contact with Johnny K, there and he took care of me. Johnny came in on his day off to make sure it was all taken care of. He organized with the staff for an amazing meal as well as the best hospitality possible. He reserved booth 17 for us which was more private yet public so I could make the proposal when the time was right. He already had discussed how the event was going to go for me and how we would end the night. We when we arrived our table was completely covered in rose petals. We were celebrating one year of being together yet my fiance had no idea of what was coming. I began the night with a gift necklace to throw her off as to think nothing more was happening that night. She was very inquisitive also of how I knew Johnny so he helped me find something we both had in common to strafe her off of the investigative path. We started the night coming in with some wonderful appetizers of lobster bites and Wagyu with soy sauce. We then proceeded with two different types of salads before our dinner of an amazing Tomahawk steak shared between myself and my fiance with some amazing side to go with it. We had planned at 830 for her mother to show up also as a surprise so she could watch the event happen. Her mom was exactly on time, and the staff positioned her so that my fiance would not see her mother during the proposal. Johnny worked with the souschef to prepare an amazing dessert board with several options this is not on the menu, and the ring was in its box centered on the board. He and several staff members recorded video as the brought the tray out and as I sat there with her she explored the wonderful dessert options that were presented on the tray and had no clue the ring box was in the center. Instantly she froze and opened the box, I pulled her out of the booth, went to my knee and proposed to her. She said yes, and the whole restaurant cheered I instantly grabbed her and picked her up and kissed her and they cheered even louder for us. Such an amazing and magical moment for the both of us and I truly believe it couldnt have happened without Johnny being a part of it. His communication, friendliness, creativeness, and eagerness to make this moment amazing for my finance was beyond compare. I would highly recommend him to anyone for planning any special event. If the restaurant is reading this, this man truly deserves a raise!!! You have an employee that cares for his customers and goes above and beyond what can ever be imagined. You, no Johnny has definitely earned continued business from us and new business from many of my coworkers and friends. Thank you again Johnny and Ruths Chris for making it the best moment ever.

“ My husband and I ate here today after we got married! It was truly the best experience we have ever had at any restaurant! The staff was so friendly and kept congratulating us. We also received a glass of champagne and dessert to celebrate. They truly know how to make you feel like a million dollars here. The food was incredible and our steak was cooked to perfection. Will definitely be back. ”

“ Had the perfect double date at Ruths Chris! The steak was cooked to perfection with incredible flavor, and dessert was nextlevelsome of the best Ive ever had. The homemade cheesecake had an amazing consistency, and the peanut butter pie was so good its worth the trip just for that! The craft margarita had the perfect balance of sweet and sour. Overall, an amazing experienceI cant wait for another special occasion to go back! ”

“ We had the opportunity to spend Valentines Day with the Chef. It was wonderful four course chefs table menu with an exceptional wine pairing. The food was incredible. As always, our server Johnny, was amazing and his wine pairings were a perfect complement to the chefs menu. I would highly recommend this experience! ”
