- Spacious restaurant with two main dining areas and ample seating; reservations are recommended; the dim lighting creates a romantic atmosphere, though it can feel slightly too dark at times - Parking is shared with Bergen Town Center and can be extremely challenging during peak dinner hours - Service could have been warmer and more personable; our waiter at times seemed a bit distracted, occasionally breaking eye contact mid-conversation and shifting his attention elsewhere - Food was a highlight: the $60 three-course deal is an excellent value and a great way to sample their filet and shrimp: the steak was cooked perfectly to a medium as requested, and the shrimp were well-seasoned and beautifully broiled (note that the plates are extremely hot when served); french onion soup was rich with caramelized onions and topped with gooey melted swiss cheese; the steakhouse salad was fresh with a light dressing; creamed spinach was indulgently creamy with a subtle hint of...blue cheese maybe?; roasted brussels sprouts were nicely charred with crispy edges and complemented by smoky bacon bits; from the kids' menu, the broiled salmon was simply prepared and well-cooked, while the fried shrimp came lightly battered with five tail-on pieces - Desserts were a mixed bag: the classic cheesecake was rich and creamy, while the chocolate cheesecake had a slightly mealy texture; the raspberry sorbet was a refreshing palate cleanser--especially enjoyable when paired with vanilla ice cream read more

Service attitude was great--our waiter Traisn was apologetic and quickly let us switch to salmon and a cheeseburger. But as loyal monthly regulars, we were deeply disappointed by the downgrade in food quality. My daughter's 4 oz filet mignon (medium rare) and my wife's filet mignon with shrimps both tasted stale, not fresh. Management offered no explanation. Unacceptable for a first-class steakhouse." read more

THE FOOD ---------------- + Limited time 3 courses for $60, which includes a starter, entree, personal side and personal dessert was worth everrrry penny, but, more importantly, was an absolute steal at Ruth's Chris!!! + Steak House Salad - Solid, simple salad. No real surprises - greens, cherry tomatoes, onions, croutons and Italian dressing - but it was a nice, light starter and just how I like my salads. + French Onion Soup - Super flavorful and so good! Can I say that this is almost too good of a starter to be on a pre-fixe menu starter list??? + 6 oz Filet and Shrimp - Filet was cooked PERFECTLY medium. It was tender, juicy and deeeeelicious. There were also 3 broiled shrimp, which were solid, but the steak already makes this entree worth it as part of the 3 for $60 deal. + Roasted Brussel Sprouts and Creamed Spinach personal sides were also good. It won't wow you, but they do the job for sides and you're getting what you expect out of these dishes. + Classic Cheesecake and Chocolate Cheesecake were solid. I preferred the classic though as the cheesecake flavor and texture of that one was more evident. The chocolate one seemed more "floury" than cheesecake, if you know what I mean... - Kids Salmon and Kids Fried Shrimp - Our kids seemed to have liked them. The Kids Salmon was a decent size and possibly even shareable. The Fried Shrimp consisted of 4 well-fried pieces. THE SERVICE ------------------- + Our waiter was good. He was friendly and accommodated every request we made. He tried to be funny at times, but some jokes kind of fell flat, but I won't hold that against him. He had good intentions. + All of our food arrived very fast!! THE SURROUNDINGS ------------------------------- + Interior of the restaurant is spacious and dimly lit during dinner. ++++ There is a reallly nice large bar to the left of the entrance of the restaurant. ++++ There are 2 dining rooms - the main one, which is directly behind the maitre'd table, and a more intimate one to the right of the main room. - During peak hours on Saturdays, which basically feels like all day Saturday, parking can be an absolute horror show in the lot because of how busy the Bergen Town Center gets. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS ------------------------------------- + Came in for a 6:15 PM resy on a Saturday and dined till about 7:30 PM and it definitely got prettttty busy by the end of out meal. The main dining room waz buzzing and our side dining room was getting busier by the minute. read more

The parking lot is insane so we were so happy that they had valet parking. If not we probably would have been late for our reservation. We had a large party of 8 and they only told us they could seat us at 5:30 which was strange because the place was empty. Our waiter Scott was fabulous. I started with a lemon drop that was delicious. For apps we had the fried calamari which I thought was poor. It was too heavily sauced and chewy. The lobster Mac and cheese had large pieces of lobster. I did the 4 course Meal for $60. It was a lot of food. I started with a salad and got shrimp and steak with a side and dessert. It was a good value, however I thought that the quality was just mediocre. read more

Nice dinner with friends to kick off the New Year. Our server, Emily, was very attentive and provided us with some great recommendations for appetizers and dinner. Drinks were festive - I had a holiday version of an Old Fashioned - good! The ladies had cranberry cocktails of some sort - they were happy. I always love the 500 degree plate at this steakhouse. It keeps the steak hot and delicious and the juices sizzling. Had the 8oz filet, medium-rare, with sharable sides of Brussel sprouts with bacon, and mashed potatoes. So glad this steakhouse is so conveniently located at Bergen Town Center - looking forward to our next visit. Oh, and check out their site or social media specials that they run occasionally. read more

Ruth's Chris' claim to flame is that steaks come to your table sizzling due to the obscene amount of butter that the slab is broiled in. The food itself was fine but considering the price, the steak was the only thing that sizzled. The service was perfunctory and slow allowing us time to consider an overly loud dining room that was more reminiscent of RC's corporate cousin, Olive Garden, than the muted decibels guests usually experiences when your paying enough to claim your meal as a dependent on your taxes. Not my favorite steak joint by a long shot. Three stars. read more

I ate at Ruth's Chris with my girlfriend at 6:30 on a weekday. The place is big and there were plenty of tables. The ambiance is definitely on the intimate side with dim lighting. Service was fast and friendly. We ordered two appetizers, the crabmeat stuffed mushrooms and the veal osso buco ravioli. I wasn't too wowed by either of them. They were good, but I'm not sure if they were good enough to justify their prices. On a return visit I'd probably try some other appetizers. My girlfriend and I split the Cowboy Ribeye which is 26 oz. We like our steak medium rare so I kind of like that it's served on a 500-degree plate to keep it warm without cooking it too much. I wonder if ordering rare would be a better choice. The steak is also served in sizzling butter so of course it tastes good. I took some of the steak butter and put it on the garlic mashed potatoes that we ordered on the side. All-in-all, Ruth's Chris was a good experience. It's pricey, but what isn't nowadays? I'd go back. read more

We were celebrating a birthday... Our Order was completely wrong. We were told that we could have a Free dessert in place of their error. And it was ridiculously expensive. The Steak was tough and the mash potatoes was bland and soupy. read more

Happy hour deals are decent. Cocktails are strong. I wouldn't come here for a real dinner. It's too expensive, and I'd prefer to go to a steakhouse in the city if I'm doing this sort of thing. Jumbo lobster tail, too heavily seasoned. A bit too salty. I would order again but I'd have them skip all the seasoning and just give me parsley and butter and call it a day. Ahi tuna appetizer, solid, not exceptional. Filet, cooked rare, excellent. Could have a better crust. Extraordinarily tender. This is the way to order it, any other way is wrong. Sorry if you do order any other way, you were probably dropped as a baby but it is what it is. Filet, cooked medium rare. Larger gray bands around pink middle, good, but rare is the way to go. The $55 happy hour 3 course special is the way to go. The cheesecake that came at the end of the special was good, not great. The house salad was just all right, and the Caesar salad was fine, but I would have appreciated real anchovies. read more

Stopped in for a bite to eat tonight after some shopping at Bergen Town Center! Found a seat at the bar and ordered the Prisoner Sour to drink - Makers Mark with a red wine floater and lime. I'm not a big whiskey drinker but did enjoy this combo! For food, I had the lettuce wedge salad & crabmeat stuffed mushrooms. The salad was excellent but think the mushrooms should've been cooked longer. I was so hungry tonight I didn't get any pics! I've been to this location a few times. It's nothing spectacular but the staff is always friendly and inviting. It's convenient to come here after an afternoon of shopping. read more

I can't say enough great things about our recent experience friday. We came to celebrate my husbands birthday and the return from his military deployment. Everyone we encountered from the staff and service to the ambiance and food were nothing short of awesome. My husband got the Tomahawk Ribeye which he has been talking about since he got it in 2023. He dogged it in 10 minutes - my mom and I got the Ruth's Chris classic filet mignon and shrimp with two sides and Caesar salads. And then we each had a cheesecake. The steaks were cooked perfectly, nothing was sent back. Our server Falgun was the nicest guy - very funny and personable and we felt like we were talking to a friend. He went above and beyond for us. When he heard about my husbands birthday and recent deployment he went and told his manager to ask if he could do something for him and the manager Jeniffer came over to our table to meet him. Jeniffer comes from a military family - so we had that in common. And she offered us 25% off the bill as a way of honoring my husbands service. To say that we left there feeling seen (and that was not our goal - we never ask for discounts) and overall felt like we had gained family and friends would be an understatement. I will tell everyone to dine at RC Paramus. Thank you all for making our night so enjoyable! read more

Very inconsistent. The food was amazing as usual but I wish I could say the same for the service. We sat at the bar and at first the service was amazing! Very friendly and attentive bartenders. But...... my husband ordered the price fixed meal which recently rose is price (not worth it). I ordered a salad and a side dish and we got an appetizer to share. We asked for both salads to come out together which they did. But then before finishing our salads - our appetizer AND everything else was just dumped off. There wasn't even room for all the food and we weren't even done with our salads. We felt very rushed. Then it took forever and a day to get their attention to ask for the check. Once we received it - I couldn't get them back to take the card. There was even one point when they were standing right next to us and not only did I politely say: "Excuse me" but I held up my check with my card and I was still ignored. I'm not sure what happened and why the whole atmosphere changed but what started out as a great date night ended up a disappointment. read more

What happened to Ruth Chris. There's so much to unpack. Soda was flat server said the line was frozen.?? What!! Food came out cold. They took everything back to start over. Obviously now we had to wait all over again. 2nd time was not any better. Steaks were cold again. Come on guys you can't put a cold steak on a hot plate and think the steak would be hot. We had ordered a 2nd bottle of wine but it was plainly obvious no one was coming back to table. They came with the bottle right before the 2nd food came. At this time we just wanted to leave. I asked for bill for what we had but was told there was no bill so they ended up packing up the food and we got up and left. After 2+ hours that was the most disappointing trip to Ruth Chris. So much for having a nice birthday dinner for my husband. Shame on you folks for all the excuses. This is supposed to be a higher end steakhouse. read more

I came here a few months back for their happy hour and really enjoyed it. I had to go to the mall so I checked on their site what our time hh ended and it said 7 PM. I had to take a small table the last time because the bar was completely full but this time I took a seat at the bar which was quite uncomfortable with the back of the chair rounded and a foot bar making it difficult to pull it up so I had to hunch over. I made it at 6:30 and asked for the hh menu but she said it was over. I told her the website said 7 and that I came just for that so the manager came over and said he would honor the prices. I ordered the old-fashioned which was quite good and decided on their cheeseburger. I ordered it medium however it was medium well, close to well however it tasted fine. The construction of the burger in the bun was not done well and falling apart as I ate it. Sad to say that the fries were the best part. Definitely not worth the price, even discounted and more over I was really bothered by the fact that the seats next to me were left dirty and unattended the entire time I was there. read more

We went to the Paramus / Maywood location for my daughter's birthday. The girls each got a petite filet, while I got a nice piece of Sea Bass and a bowl of lobster bisque. If I'm being honest here, the bisque was not my favorite. Perhaps there was too much alcohol in it for my taste. I'm not sure what the underlying flavor was. The Sea Bass, however, was much better, and the girls steaks were delicious and cooked to perfection. Duke, our server, was exemplary and gave my daughter a creme brûlée for her birthday. The prices certainly aren't for the faint of heart, but it's a nice place to go for a special occasion. read more

Came here for early New Year's Eve dinner. Love this location for all the parking and easy access . Kinda annoyed having to wait to be seated for no reason. Place was empty . Dining room is beautiful and nice big booth. Unfortunately all splash stains on the wall. We started with Fried calamari with sweet and spicy chili sauce. Was nice and crispy and good and spicy sauce In ordered the lobster bisque which had a little spice to it but was watery and barely any lobster. Wife had the Caesar salad and it was fresh and dressing was good We both decided on the prix fix. Wife got the 6 oz filet and shrimp. Steak was perfect but shrimp really had no taste. I ordered surf and turf but upgraded to a rib eye. It was cooked perfectly but lot of fat . Lobster was little rubbery with no taste Mash potatoes were really good. Creamed spinach tasted burnt. Only had one choice with the prix fixe which was cheesecake unfortunately i hate that lol. Our food twice was brought to wrong table Ordered expresso but never came had to ask For it. Our waiter was very good have to say and we had a great night. Not as over priced with the prix fixe and i will definitely come back. read more

We had the most tremendous time here celebrating among friends over dinner for a special occasion. The restaurant was prepared for our large party's reservation, and had us seated in more private location of the restaurant. The restaurant oozes class in both its decor, as well as its service. Our server was absolutely wonderful. He was kind and attentive, returning often to be sure we had everything we need. Drinks were strong and well-done. The old fashioned is highly-recommended! Filet mignon and shrimp was perfectly cooked and I couldn't have been happier with my meal. Spicy shrimp and ahi tuna appetizers were also excellent! Overall, there is a reason this place commands the prices they do. Everything about the evening was perfectly done. read more

Made reservation to premium steakhouse to celebrate my husband's birthday with our kids. We came with such excitement and anticipation. We were running a little late but we did responded and let them know that we are on our way. Upon arrival, the hostess treated us with an attitude, she said that we were late and not sure if they will have a table for us. Asked us to wait aside. Then, she came back grabbed the menus and stand In front of us looking at us signaling she got us a table without a smile walk us to the table. There's not welcome greetings nor mentioning about our celebrations with the server. There were still tables available in the main dining room. But rather she put us at a small table at a dark section next to the bar. Our server was nice. Food was good. We had the medium rare cowboy steak and NY strips and they were great cuts and nicely done. The sizzling crab cakes and the old fashion were underwhelming. After spending hundreds of dollars for a meal rather than feeling happy celebrating a special occasion we left feeling we were made bagged to dine there. We were in and out within an hour. Though we like the steaks but will take my business elsewhere (always a good time at The Capital Grille ). read more

5 stars all around! Last night, we had the most delicious meal at the Paramus location. Upon arrival, we were greeted like royalty. There were so many options to choose from, but we've a had a filet, baked potato and spinach. Everything came out piping hot and delicious. I barely needed a knife to cut the steak, it was like butter. We finished our meal with cheesecake and an espresso. Again, outstanding and very satisfying. Service - 5 stars!! Our server was very attentive and made us feel like family. Even the manager stopped by our table, which was a beautiful touch. This place really goes above and beyond. The ultimate dining experience. Treat yourself, you won't regret it. I promise, you'll be back again. Great job Ruth's Chris Paramus! read more

Saturday night visit went well. We had reservations and were seated about 5 minutes after having arrived. I ordered a lemonade and water to start. The server brought out bread and butter for the table. He then brought us our drinks and took our orders. My lemonade was tart and I loved it. It tasted freshly squeezed. For my entre I ordered the stuffed chicken and sides of garlic mashed potatoes and creamed spinach. The chicken was very good. I love the cream sauce they stuff the chicken with. The garlic mash was a little hard. They may have made it first and left it out while the chicken was cooking. When we got our food the chicken was piping hot but the sides were room temperature. I ordered a second lemonade and they brought it in a regular glass cup. This time the lemonade tasted like it came from a soda fountain. It was not like the first lemonade they brought out. A bit disappointing. For dessert, we ordered the cheesecake which has what seems to be yogurt on top. It was good. Overall, I like the atmosphere in the restaurant I'm just really surprised they don't have salmon on the menu. I'd return. read more

I came here a few weeks ago while I was visiting home for the holidays. We went during happy hour. When we got there we were seated right away. Staff was very warm and welcoming. Our waiter went through the menu with us. We started with the goat cheese and artichoke dip and seared ahi tuna. Both were so good. I loved the dip and the bread that comes with it. I also had the rocks rita. Nice drink. Mixed well. After we decided to get an entree. We had the special that was a soup or salad, essentially a surf (shrimp) and turf, a side and a dessert. I Caesar salad was good. I am allergic to shellfish so I'm not sure how the shrimp part tasted. But my friend said it was really good! (I gave her mine and she gave me her dessert to go home). The creamed spinach and petit filet were ok. I wish it just had more seasoning. The little cheesecake dessert it came up was good too. I would definitely go back for the happy hour. I think it's a great deal! read more

Was so excited to finally get to try this restaurant with hubby. We made a reservation and the hostess asked if we had a preference of seating? I told her somewhere secluded where there isn't that many ppl, she seats us at a booth by the bar (lots of ppl). I didn't want to make a big deal and dealt with it. We started with some yummy drinks. I had the dirty Martini and hubby had the pomegranate martini. Both delicious. For Apps we opted for crab stuffed mushrooms, delicious. And the calamari, also so good. At this point I ask for a wine and hubby for a coke. I receive my wine but hubby waits patiently for his coke and he never received it. For dinner we opted to have the porterhouse for two. We asked for it medium. The minute it came out they gave us two really hot 500 degree plates with butter. This actually ended up cooking our steak to well done which we didn't like. When our waiter came by immediately after the other waiter placed the porterhouse down, we asked him for some a1. Waiter never brought it to us. Mind you he was at the bar talking up a storm to coworker and bar patrons, and we see this because we were seated at a booth by the bar. There was another waiter that was helping our main waiter and he packed our food up. Since our waiter wasn't really paying us any mind we asked the helping waiter for the dessert menu. We decided on two desserts, but unfortunately we never ordered it because our waiter was too busy as the bar and we got tired of waiting for him to come over to us. Overall, the food was ok, but they need to work on not forgetting your patrons. We spent over $300 for an experience we could've had at longhorns and they wouldn't have forgotten our drinks, Condiments and we would've enjoyed desserts. read more

I wasn't expecting this burger to be this good. I think it's only available for happy hour. I came in hungry, left full.

I can't wait to come have a drink here with my wife. read more
