Caramelized Banana Cream Pie
Anthony A.

Fantastic atmosphere, service was incredible. The steak was very good and the banana cream Pie was the best part of the meal.

Ribeye with lobster Mac and cheese

We got in around 12pm for my friends birthday and on our way back to New York. The ambiance was pretty quiet (possibly because it was early) the food was yummy (the lobster Mac and cheese needed a little salt but other wise pretty good) and the service was awesome! The waitress was patience and so sweet! We all enjoyed ourself including the birthday girl.

I'm surprised I have not previously reviewed and after our "less than" dinner experience that did not meet prior visits expectations, I was coming in to provide an update. Unfortunately, this review will be solely based on our visit on 10-17. We had reservations, though this evening wasn't needed, but you never know, so I always make them to be safe. We also have always had a preferred waiter; however he was not working that night. This location is our #1 preference of the many Ruth's we have been to over 30+ years of patronage to the brand. We have always had impeccable service here in the 14 years we've exclusively dined at this location and lucked out over the years finding 2 great servers and request their table only. When we arrived, the hostesses greeted us warmly and as we were escorted to our table she acknowledged my birthday. That was nice, but that's where it ends of niceness. We were taken to probably THE WORST table in the entire space. The multiple dining rooms were not busy, so why she sat someone who is celebrating a special occasion in a relatively empty space in a less desirable location by the waiter station in the main walkway, I'll never know. And yes,we could have said something, but I should NOT have to in this type of establishment. It was also training night, not that it affected how we felt, but not sure if that affected our service points as maybe our waiter, Andrew felt more distracted having a shadow, not sure. Service was less than a Ruth's standard, we weren't even asked after trying our dinner if everything was prepared correctly. Felt drink refilling for our coke and tea were not acknowledged well enough., Water glass service was great, filled without asking. As far as our food, let me start with the best part. For a couple years, back around 2018 or 2019, something changed with my favorite side, the sweet potato casserole. It had lost it's flavor. I even inquired with our waiter after 2nd dinner noticing the difference and he asked the chef and said nothing changed. I beg to differ as 3 different occasions it was not the same. This was also around same time when they removed the awesome onion ring tower and Lyonnaise potato's. So with reluctance, I ordered my dish, as I was avoiding going back because I was SO disappointed. You also need to understand my emotional connection since this dish was competition for my moms casserole. Mom isn't here anymore, so this dish just brings me joy when its made well!! OMG, it's BACK and fixed and perfect, I was in heaven!! Happy birthday to me! The next best was the desserts, chocolate sin cake (dense, full of flavor and RICH) and the creme brulee (light, vanilla perfection and delicious). Excellent flavors and nice presentation. So, for the less than good things... For the entire evening, the waiter NEVER acknowledged my birthday or didn't ask if we were celebrating anything special. I ordered the Petite Filet (my fault I forgot I wanted blue cheese encrusted) medium rare and despite that, my steak came out more rare than medium rare. Luckily we are SO experienced at Ruth's with the 500° plates, that I know, slice and flip the meat to further cook myself as I'm eating. That works perfectly as I'd much rather be rare than over done and spoil the perfectly delicious steak. The steak was tender and just heavenly despite being under-cooked. My husband ordered the crab cakes which were terrible - mushy, not much flavor with lots of filler and little crab. Next, I have to mention the restrooms. Ladies room was ok, but needed some attention. However, the men's room was a disgrace as my husband reported. He said they had a toilet/plumbing issue that made him afraid to flush or stand close as he didn't want his shoes damaged. Despite the less than satisfactory visit, we will return because we felt this, hopefully, was a unique faux pa's. But, I'll try to find put what night our favorite waiter is on duty and stick with what we know because he MAKES any evening dining there special, where its just a regular dinner or a celebratory meal.

Our Anniversary is usually celebrated at Ruth's Chris Steak House. Our normal location is the one located in Richmond, Va. However this year we were celebrating our 10 year anniversary in Maryland. We were excited to find out the Berlin location was only 7mins from where we were staying. Unfortunately, we were not satisfied. We were actually quite disappointed. Pretty much everything was flavorless and premade. If you know and are familiar with the flavorful, great quality, and price normally delivered at Ruth's Chris, you would understand our disappointment. On our reservation we requested to be seated in a more secluded/ private area (we get the anniversary room in Richmond, Va), however the rude host took us to a middle table surrounded by other parties. When I mentioned the request we made on our reservation she then moved us right beside the kitchen. She was not pleasant from the time we entered until the time we left. Our servers were good, that was the only positive thing I can say about this location. We had poor service from the host, terrible seating, the food was disappointing, and to top it all off we paid more than what we normally pay at Ruth's Chris. Overall this location was a disappointment and we will never visit again. Not Recommended

Celebrated New Year's Eve and my birthday at RC in Berlin, Maryland. Perfect from start to finish. There were four of us, served by Serena and Antonio. We started with bread and red wine.....followed by salads and dinner. We enjoyed the steakhouse salad with remoulade dressing. Never disappoints! We had the garlic crusted sea bass (best I've had ever), two had surf and turf (cooked to perfection) and the last had the 12 ounce filet. We also had the creamed spinach and garlic mashed potatoes. Serena surprised me with a birthday bread pudding and happy birthday written on the plate in chocolate.....excellent way to end the meal. The service was world class, with Serena checking in on everything. Couldn't have been better. This has been our experience at this location consistently, and we have been to RC across the country many times. Berlin RC keeps us coming back!!

Loaded potato

Started off with a dog fish 60 minute ipa followed by fillet,lobster tail and a loaded potato. The service was fantastic waitress knew all about the place and food. Very polite and Attentive. I recommend this place to all.

We had a great experience at Ruth's Chris Steak House in Ocean City, MD. Our waiter was super nice and informative. The vibe of the place was perfect for our group birthday dinner. Food Appetizers: - seared ahi tuna: tuna was perfectly cooked and melted in your mouth, it was delicious. - ceaser salad: super good, one of the best we've had. Sides: - lobster Mac and cheese: creamy and delicious, lobster was fresh. - mashed potatoes: great flavor and creamy - sweet potato casserole: the best of the sides, It was gone in 5 minutes. Entrees: - steaks: all of our steaks were cooked to perfection 10/10. - lamb chops: juicy and cooked perfectly. Great flavor.

First, let me say Ruth's Chris is very expensive. Like no entrée goes below 30 dollars. Second, all sides are served family style, so you share. Third, you're going to want to get dressed up, polo and khakis should suffice. Keep those three things in mind. But, you certainly get what you pay for, my waiter was amazing. Incredible, professional service. Not to even mention the food, which is even better then the service. A friend of mine and his family invited me to the beach with his family. It's a tradition of theirs to always visit Ruth's Chris, so I came along. For some reason they were very angry the shoestring fries were removed from the menu. I wouldn't know why since I've never been to a Ruth's Chris before. First, their bread and butter is good, not great. Everyone comes to Ruth's Chris for the steak. We all ordered filets, I ordered the petite filet. I can 100% certainly say this was the best cut of steak and best steak I've ever had. The mashed potatoes were pretty good too. By the end of my visit I was stuffed. I don't know if I'd come here again since I can't really afford it.

Full-service butcher shop and eatery. You can eat outside at the grill or inside at "The Butchers…read moreTable", or "to go " from the butcher. The short rib sub was absolutely delicious served with Kettle chips. The meat was perfectly cooked and must have fallen off the bone before being put on the roll. The ribeye cheese steak was good with American cheese served with kettle chips. The ribeye was juicy and flavorful. I only wish the rib eye was sliced and not crumbled with more gooey cheese. Forgiveness because the short ribs were insanely good. I opted for a side of coleslaw (dixie style) however just a tad too sweet for my taste. They offered traditional bratwurst and kraut with mustard for Oktoberfest weekend. Definitely a must do in Berlin. They sell beer and wine. I'm coming back for the Reuben, brisket grilled cheese, and pastrami!

Broken glass, ice and wine/beer everywhere. My wife took it in good spirits and we moved tables. The waitress was nice but very awkward the rest of the time. It took a while for our food to come out. In the meantime we ran out of drinks and had requested water multiple times. Nothing. This is a small place and there were 3 other tables. Finally we got drinks and our food showed up. I had the brisket sandwich. Mouthfuls of fat! Gross. The brisket was good but my sandwich was 1/2 fat. My wife's was the same. Cute place. Horrible experience. The food could have been good but you can't serve a sandwich that's 50% fat. Our drinks were comped but that didn't make up for the overall l experience.

Have had multiple visits over the years seeing this establishment grow and have enjoyed them…read more However this was fourth and worse igloo visit. It was not clear on the website when making reservations that the menus posted were not for the igloos. Even items we asked about on the menus provided were not available (menu said available until 3 pm in igloo, it was 200 but still told no- yet we also couldn't get the steak or rockfish in the igloo. As well, previous igloo visit options provided fondue for 2 (not 5!) and could be altered for one meat and one seafood eater however this time we would've had to at $240 to get both. At minimum $120+$10-$12 extra to add one skewer. Although the ambiance is an "experience" it was not a satisfying culinary experience. As well, it was not clear we couldn't divide our checks up amongst each couple as most all restaurants can do. (Can only do 2 checks, we had 3 couples) It was more cumbersome on the waitress and us than just charging each couple one bill, we weren't sharing food or said put half this on each etc. it was clearly just 3 couples. As for what we did get... if crab dip hadn't had a shell in it I wouldn't have believed it had any crab in it, just cheese flavor. Steak skewer was well done (no choice given) yet veggies were aldente (to say the least). Wine was good but limited selection. I really don't understand why I can eat one think inside yet can't 20' away we would've had a much better experience if some accommodating had been offered on any of the above issues.
