Choice cuts of custom-aged beef arrive in sizzling butter on 500-degree plates. The menu also offers chicken, pork and seafood entrees along with Creole appetizers like shrimp remoulade. Family-style sides include gargantuan onion rings, creamed spinach and various styles of potatoes. Traditional homemade desserts like cheesecake and bread pudding conclude the meal.

Insider Tips
Look GoodIt's not on the menu, but consider ordering your steak "Oscar style," which means it's topped with asparagus, crab cakes and bearnaise sauce.

My boyfriend and I just celebrated our anniversary at Ruth's Chris in Woodland Hills. I made the reservation online through their website and indicated that we were celebrating our anniversary. We got there about 15 minutes early and checked in. We waited for about 20 minutes (considering we were early, so we really only waited 5 minutes). They were turning away patrons because there were so many reservations. So note to self people! MAKE RESERVATIONS!! We were greeted by our bus boy who had his tray of water selections, "would you like sparkling, mineral or tap?" That was about the last time we saw him. He never did come back to fill up our "tap" water. We were then graciously greeted by our waiter Jorge who was great. I ordered the rib eye (medium rare - which totally excited Jorge. I'm sure he gets a little miffed when people order their steaks more than medium) and my BF ordered the NY strip. Jorge suggested we order 2 sides: garlic mashed potatoes and the asparagus with hollandaise. All of the sides looked good but we kept it simple. The table next to us ordered the creamed spinach which also looked really good. Our steaks arrived sizzling in butter to the table on a plate which Jorge said was about 500 degrees. He wasn't kidding! Let's just say that these steaks were like butter! I've been to BOA in Las Vegas and I thought that steak was yummy...this was even better! (I do love the roasted garlic BOA gives you though). Jorge then gave us the dessert menu and acknowledged that we were celebrating our anniversary and that our dessert would be complimentary. We ordered the warm apple tart and it was served with a candle (kind of cheesy but liked the gesture). All in all, the night was perfect, the food was great and the service was impeccable! I highly recommend Ruth's Chris. It was well worth the $200 spent!
Pros: Great steaks and sides. Perfect service.
Cons: Noisy
