"A truly bizarre dining experience. While the food was good, the service was unprofessional and completely shambolic from start to finish. Firstly, we were not asked to provide proof of vaccination on arrival at the restaurant (although the signage outside indicated we should do so). The interior decor was tired and dated resembling something from the Our order was promptly taken but, to our dismay, our main course arrived BEFORE our starters. While the floor manager agreed to cancel our starters and remove them from the bill, this was not the end of the matter… When our bill arrived at the end of our meal, it accurately reflected a credit for our missing starters but the recommended tip amounts were calculated on the cost of the meal INCLUDING the missing starters. Fortunately I picked up on the restaurant’s billing error. I was then informed that the restaurant’s credit card system was not operational, and I could either pay in cash ? or fill out an old-style credit card payment form (with carbon copy pages, which was very much in line with the aforementioned decor). Opting for the form, one was provided to me with the incorrect cost of the meal including the cost of missing starters. Pointing this error out to my waiter resulted in me having to wait a further minutes for the delivery of a corrected form. My table was not the only one encountering problems with its bill I could overhear two further tables questioning their charges. Needless to say, it was a very disappointing dining experience, and I felt lucky to have avoided being overcharged for subpar service"

Good was amazing. My server could’ve been more attentive, however

The service and food was amazing. I've been to many Ruth Chris restaurants, and I'd have to say way that this holds up to all the others View menu

Restaurant was very empty, yet, waitstaff was not attentive for the price your pay for a steak. Was excited for Lobster Mac Cheese, but the lobster was not fresh, tasted old. For that price, it should always be fresh

As always, their filet mignon is superb. Similarly, the quality of service was excellent. The place is laid out more crowded than typical Ruth's Chris, but not to the point it's a major distraction. The only real issue is the tables are of poor quality so the leaves they fold out to make them larger are all bent, resulting in a table that is not flat. For a large group check that the table is okay before seating

Food was very good. We had steak, asparagus, baked potato, snd salads. Service was very good as well. All the staff was very pleasant. But the decor was old and dated. I felt like I was in an old fashioned restaurant from the that hadn’t been updated for decades! But what was really annoying was the awful music played throughout the whole time we were there. Except for an occasional good jazz piece, the music was so distracting and unpleasant. We asked if it could be changed but the waiter said it couldn’t. Too bad View menu

I enjoyed everything. There were only two things that unsettled me a bit. After a little analysis, I noticed that there was a separation between people who sat in the front by the bar and the others who go to the back. Since I've been out to eat here several times, I've dressed pretty much the same and always sat in the back. Let's just say there was some slight discrimination for who sat in the front compared to the back. Additionally, I was very turned off that my gratuity was AUTOMATICALLY included. Which was not always the case. Now, it was hard for me to not think this was associated with the reason we were sitting in the front. Either way, that is an option that should be for the custo...

I made a reservation well in advance for my teenage sons birthday. When we arrived we were seated in the bar area, which was NOT what was requested or preferred. It was on a Tuesday. When I asked if we could sit in the dining room. I was told no, because my son was wearing “sports shorts” and didn’t meet the dress code. He was dressed nicely, the shirts were white and happened to be sport material. He wasn’t coming from the gym. Meanwhile, every woman that walked into the restaurant and seated in the dining room, were practically topless. There was ZERO customer service. I would have left except it’s his favorite steak place. So, I paid to have my sons birthday dinner in a noisy bar area. ZE...

"We went to Bread N Wine on a early Saturday afternoon for brunch. We were greeted and seated by the servers who were attentive. The food was okay the bread was really soft and fresh. My partner got the French Lentil Soup, Spinach and Tomato Egg Bake andI got the French onion soup, egg omelette with spicy tomato avocado and onions. I wasn 't happy with my omelette because thespicy just meant it was covered in hot sauce within. For beverages, we got chai lattes (we later found out it wasn 't tea basedbut rather coffee) and we had the option of oat milk, almond milk or regular milk. In terms of our overall experience we feltby the end too many things were steering the experience south; the worst was when we were accused of using counterfeit money topay for the tip. There was no special marker used to prove that the money was counterfeit or technology to back up this claim.That experience alone left a bad taste in our mouth as we left embarrassed by that claim, kind of shook from that, we stilladded the tip to our credit card 18%. As we walked out and talked about how weird that was, the owner of the business nextdoor overheard us and asked to see the $20 bill he showed us that our money was real and validated what we knew, that themoney wasn 't counterfeit. When we went back into Bread N Wine to discuss this there was no apology, just well, it felt thatway , shrug. It left a terrible feeling. We would not go back after that, this is not how you treat customers from start tofinish, hence the 2 star review."
