7. Ruth's Chris Steak House

Outstanding!

We were very pleased with our total dining experience. We started out with an appetizer of Lobster Bisque. My domestic Goddess is very picky about this particular dish and besides asking the waiter to add a little bit of Sherry to it (they use brandy) she thought it was excellent. We both ordered the filet, mine rare and hers medium rare. She needed to have them put it back in the oven for a minute as it was just a little too rare for her taste. Mine was done just the way I like it, near to breathing. The steak was extremely tender and flavorful and was probably the best steak I have ever had, well worth the $23 price tag. The only downside to the evening was when I looked at the bill and realized that I had just paid $24 for two martinis....come on guys, that is gouging!
