   My husband and I were celebrating our 27th anniversary while attending an event in Albany for one of our college aged children. We chose Ruth Chris- Albany since it was in the vicinity. We found the staff to be hospitable and very friendly as they went out of their way make sure you enjoyed your meal. Upon arrival, I noticed that our table was decorated with flower petals, which was a nice touch. We orderded french onion soup and ceasars salad for the appetizers; and a blueberry mojito and the orange margarita for drinks. For the main course, I ordered the 8 ounce steak fillet and charred scallops, and he had the steak and shrimp signature classic. We ordered mashed potatoes with creamed spinach for our sides. The Ruth Chris steak was good, but was missing the quality offered at a Lugers or an STK. We found the steak & shrimp portion to be very small considering the price. Also, I didn't love the overly charred scallops. The signature meal came with 3 small shrimp and a 6 ounce steak, but they give you the option of an 11 oz if you choose. We also felt that we needed more potatoes to go with the oversized bowl of creamed spinach. However, I did appreciate the compliment ary dessert with the meal to celebrate our day.

   Ruth's Chris knows how to treat diners. I have been there 2 or 3 times and have had different servers. Always excellent! The food is also excellent whether it is steaks, lamb or sides. Pricey but worth it especially for special occasions.

   Seafood was cold. Steak and mushrooms were so salty I decided to take my meal home and wash them off. Staff spoke so fast, I understood about half of what they said, and I have perfect hearing. I’ve been to five other Ruth Chris and recently moved to Albany but never again!

   We love going to Ruth's Chris. The food is always wonderful. Adam (our waiter) was fabulous! He catered to everyone's needs and wants and especially made the birthday boy's evening memorable. Overall a great time with our family for this special occasion.

    Food and service was fantastic. The only issue I had was it’s a little dark inside. Made it difficult to read the menu. Price is high but then again this isn’t a chilis.
