On Saturday after work I picked up my girl and went to Ruth's Chris at TST to try our luck for a table.The receptionist was nice enough to tell me that it'd be a smoking zone.

The receptionist was nice enough to tell me that it'd be a smoking zone. We could have turned to Red Stone but given the space between the tables I thought smoking section wouldn't be a problem.
There was a South Asian captain and I asked him if I wanted a steak well done which steak I should pick. He was helpful enough by suggesting a fillet of $410.
I then ordered chicken as well. There was no starter because my girl & I would like to leave room for desert.
Another waitress came to take our order. She insisted on two things: Medium well and side dish of vegetable.
After the order I looked at the wine menu - Honestly I was prepared for the prices and I was also prepared not to open a bottle. If I had looked for something cheaper I would have gone to Bulldog's, which is just next door.
The steak came with the chicken. The portion didn't look too huge and the captain divided the food for us - he was always gentle & helpful by reminding us of the very hot plate under the food.
The steak was really very soft even if it was a medium well one - the captain did make good suggestions. But the steak, the chicken and even the spinach in cheese were too oily - we could see the food still soaked in a layer of oil.
The chicken was even stuffed with cream. Both the steak and the chicken were tasty, and so was the vegetable.
After the steak we were full but we still wanted to try a dessert. On recommendation we ordered a Morton cake - Wow! It was big enough for three.
I sometimes wonder why westerners could eat so much for a person and they really do - we saw western ladies having a full course meal beside us.
Once you stepped into the restaurant I think you should be ready to pay a bit more. Bottle water at $75 is quite common in Western restaurant isn't it?
Good luck
