I paid the same price as those folks who ordered steaks and was given a plate with six disgusting looking blobs of over cooked vegetables.
We were a large group and a number of folks in our group did not show. We were happy to pitch in and pay for those uneaten meals, but when we asked if we could have those steaks, the wait staff became totally indignant and refused to even consider the possibility that we should be allowed to take that food we paid for.
That experience soured me so completely that I have refused to step foot in Ruth's Chris ever since.
Doesn't sound like any Ruth's Chris I've ever been in! First, I've never heard of not being able to take your leftovers in any non-buffet restaurant. I hope you spoke with a manager and got that resolved to your satisfaction. Second, the side vegetables I've gotten with my steaks over the years have all been excellent. I have especially enjoyed the creamed spinach. I hope you didn't leave a tip, LOL.
