After a couple bad times. I gave up. Returned with a community dining group and was pleasantly surprised. Do not get the famous $10 + clam chowder. The sherry based flavor was fine but 3 tiny clams in shell and a couple diced potatoes and nothing else it was criminal. The meals, meatloaf and salmon were great. Everyone else enjoyed their meals. Service was an A- Iâll come back Dear Jackman1;Thank you for the feedback and we are glad that you gave us another shotJames CorbettGeneral Manager

We visited this restaurant on Sunday August 17, 2019. Wow....what a great lunch! We were promptly seated, then greeted by our server(s). Our server was training another young lady & we were impressed how the seasoned server; served us, yet it was obvious how she was teaching the new server with her attention to details yet offering us that uninterrupted service. I had the Chicken Henry & my husband had the Spinach & Steak Salad. We were both happy with our choices! We will definitely be back & will highly recommend this restaurant! Thank you, 974pattim! We are happy to hear that you had a great visit with us!

White table cloth service, professional service and a great early bird menu before 6 pm. Happy hour pricing of drinks and options include full entrees, apps, salads, burgers etc all at exciting prices. After 6 pm you return to reality pricing in SWFL. However locals know value and it was full before 6 pm.

We have friends that recommend we go check out the 'Happy Hour Special' at this Ruth's Chris Steak House bar area (nice tables) ... what a delightful experience ! Starts at 4pm (fills up quick - so might want to go early) ... lots of exceptional food offering @ Happy Hour (e.g. steak sandwich, etc) under $10 - top notch service.. Not sure how long this special will last ... we'll be back soon with friends. We have dined at this Ruth Chris before in the main dining room - no disappointments ... if you enjoy a great steak this is the place, based on our experience.

We enjoyed our freshly prepared Omelets with large fresh mushrooms, spinach, and sautéed onions that came with toast, English Muffin, or bread of your choice. It does not come with hash browns or fruit but those can be ordered on the side. The price was very reasonable at $6.50 each and our omelets were fresh and served. hot. This is a small cafe family run in a small strip shopping center off Tamiami. It is quaint and offers friendly and efficient service. A fresh juice sample of the day is offered and is delicious and can be purchased if you want more. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience.

We have passed this place many times in our way to other eateries but tonight we checked it out. They had an 18 dollar special going on with about 15 entrees that were legit. I ordered off the menu and got chicken parm. It was the real deal. Comes w choice of soup or salad. I got the crab bisque which was outstanding. The other three diners all the the pistachio trout. All loved it. Our server was Cindy and she was terrific. All in all very good place and we will return. Thank you so much for finally stopping in. The $18 menu is for our 22nd anniversary and will continue until October 22nd. We are so glad that you enjoyed your meal, along with your three guests. The majority of our entrees come with bread and oil, a choice of soup or salad, and one side. You can always request Cindy as your server when you return. See you soon!
