re: Favorite Steak @ Ruth Chris

I love the filet, but I get the ribeye. There is something about going to a prime steakhouse to get USDA prime meat. The filet is not prime at Ruths

I don't mean to yell but HELL YEAH

I have to ask. Is there not another prime steakhouse in Baton Rouge other than Ruth's and Fleming's? I mean, the love for Ruth's on here is only rivaled by the love for Johnny's Pizza. I've never eaten at the one in Baton Rouge, but I have dined at some of their other locations. The steak has been less than memorable each time. For a chain, I'll take Morton's, Shula's and Fleming's before Ruth's. Everytime. JMO.

I like Morton's a lot, but there isn't one in BR. I've had Shula's, wasn't overly impressed. I do like Fleming's more than Ruth's, but both are solid IMO. BR also has Sullivans, which has some prime and some choice cuts. I would rank it behind Ruth's and Fleming's, though. Various restaurants do feature a prime steak selection or two.

I like the filet and Lobster, also, get the mushrooms stuffed with crab meat for appetizer, it is sweet.

Filet, medium rare, Pittsburgh style "cooked on open flame instead of normal sear" and finished in oven as normal

Whatever you do just make sure you get the sweet potato casserole.
