My ex-wife and I ate at the one in Tyson's Corner, VA in 2009 to celebrate our 30th anniversary together. I was suitably impressed with the food and the service. She wasn't. With either. While I am blessed enough to have been taken by my parents to fine dining restaurants, beginning as a child, my ex-wife wasn't so fortunate. Although I introduced her early on to such, she never seemed to appreciate the pride that some people put into the creation of a memorable occasion. And, that's what it's all about. It's not the price that makes the occasion. It's the pride in bringing enjoyment to others. Our last such meal was at The Derby in Arcadia, CA, in 2012. Most memorable? The Carnelian Room in San Francisco. Why most memorable? Only time we ever had a "date night" via cable car! And, on the way back to our hotel, while the cable car was stopped at the intersection by the Mark Hopkins, there was a guy with a moustache and beard, wearing a blue and white striped sundress, and waving a pink handkerchief while yelling "yoo-hoo!" at the crowd! That was in 1986! LOL! This was another great video. Quite a contrast with Valentines Day at Waffle House! (Imagine Ruth's Chris doing "Hash Browns, Scattered, Smothered, and Covered!) God Bless!
We enjoyed Ruth's Chris Steakhouse so much. I think you have to be able to appreciate wherever you are. You have to appreciate the attention to detail and the love that goes into your dining experience.
The building is beautiful. Maybe not as memorable as a cable car with a guy outside wearing a sundress and waving a pink handkerchief yelling yoo-hoo! lol
A lovely restaurant for a very special occasion. Thank you for sharing with us.
It was a fantastic restaurant for our Valentines Day celebration. The food was amazing. It was our first visit at a Ruth’s Chris steakhouse. I know it’s expensive but every once in a while is not too bad. The food was great and we enjoyed our special meal. Thanks so much for watching and we appreciate you taking the time to comment. Have a great weekend!
This was a great restaurant for our Valentine’s Day celebration. We had a great experience at Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse. Our food was amazing and the atmosphere could not be beat. Everyone working there took great care of us. I know it’s expensive but every once in a while is not too bad. We would go back again. Thanks so much for watching and we appreciate you taking the time to comment. Hope you have a great weekend and God Bless.
The food definitely did look good. I have not eaten there but I would want to be on vacation before spending so much for a meal. I think I'm getting "tight" in my old age! Glad you enjoyed it.
The food was amazing. Definitely want it to be something special to eat here. They do have Ruth's Chris Steakhouses in a lot of tourist areas. I can understand holding on your cash for a little longer. lol Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you for taking us along on your special Valentine's Day meal. I am glad you warned us about the prices. Every once in a while you have got to treat yourself, life is short.
You are so welcome! You are right about life being short. That is why we try to go and do as much as we can. We had such a wonderful experience here. The prices were much higher than what you are use to seeing on our channel. lol Hope you and Angie have a wonderful Valentine's Day!
I think the historical building was very grand!
I have heard so many mixed opinions about Ruth’s Chris that makes me wonder if I should give it a try but so far, I am not completely sure about spending that much money.
I was told the best steak but sides were expensive.
I also heard that it was okay but save your money and go to Texas Roadhouse! lol.
I appreciate getting to see the food and your opinion as well.
I am still undecided 🤷♀️! 😣
Tell Carly, hello 👋! 🌹❤️🩹
The building was beautiful. I always love seeing historical buildings preserved and being used for something. I understand debating about going to Ruth's Chris. It is definitely more expensive than your typical restaurant. We had actually wanted to go here for awhile because we had heard such good things about it. We had a gift card, which definitely made it more affordable for us. Your meal will cost between $75 and $100 a person. We chose the prixe fixe menu because it was a better deal. The sides were around $14 if you order everything a la carte. You just have to know the price when you go in and be okay with treating yourself to something so extravagant. We would definitely go back but now anytime soon. lol
Now we frequent Texas Roadhouse a lot! We especially enjoy when we can go for their early dine specials during the week, but often it's the weekend when we actually can go. We put out a short with Carly on the saddle for her birthday. Carly says hello. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great looking place.
It really is! It would be a great place to take Marie for a special occasion. I think both of you would really enjoy the food here. Start saving up your $. lol
Awww, we adore you guys!! So nice to go to a fine dining place. I went to one of these places a long time ago for a bachelor party down in Charlotte, NC. Nice to go to one of these places once a year or so. If you ever have a chance to find a place that has dry aged beef it’s a game changer! I’m trying to think of a place around here. I’ve been to a place or two in Texas and one in Northern Va. Dry aged beef. Game changer! Try to find a place and if you do, me and my wife might come along! Keep up the great work! We love your content! God bless you guys. ❤️
Thank you! Definitely a delicious dining experience. We want to go back here for lunch and try the burger. I have never tried dry aged beef that I am aware. I just googled dry aged beef and see that Aberdeen Barn came up. However on the website I did not see where they mentioned that they actually serve the dry aged beef. David has mentioned going there before so we will look more into it. I'm thinking it may not be dry aged since it is not advertising it. Would love for you to join us to try the beef if is dry aged. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
Dry aged beef is kinda hard to describe but it’s basically beef that placed in a temperature controlled room for weeks at a time. It actually grows a little mold on the exterior that is trimmed off and the beef gets a really red color and that beef flavor is really intensified and it almost takes on a little funk like a good cheese! I didn’t do a good job of making it sound too appetizing. lol! But it is really quite amazing! I’ve only had it a few times in my life. My wife and I are going to Italy on a bucket list trip next week and Florence Italy is supposed to have the best aged beef! I will happily try to verify this! 😂😂. God bless!
I've heard a lot about Ruth's Chris, nice to get some idea of what to expect!
We watched some videos before we went so we could get an idea. We wanted to make sure to share our experience so others could see if it was something they think they would like. We loved the food and service. If you are paying that kind of money you want to make sure it is something you will like. We highly recommend! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Yummy 🤤
It was! Such a good meal. 😋
This was a Beautiful place. Little pricy but looked worth it.
It was definitely a beautiful location with amazing food. We had been wanting to try this for awhile and just finally got to it. Definitely recommend going here for a special occasion. The steak was served hot and stayed hot the entire meal. So good! Hope you are doing well!
Just watched your video Glad to see you guys had a Great time Happy Valentine ‘s Day
The dining experience was amazing. We thought everything we tried was excellent. Appreciate you watching. Happy Valentine's Day!
That is one might find looking meal. I can't believe the steak was cooked perfectly, I never get my steak cooked exactly as I like it and that was. We have a Ruth's Chris in Cleveland I can't wait to try.
It is hard to get a steak cooked the way you want it. We were so pleased with everything here. Hope you enjoy!
Valentine's Day is our Wedding 💒 anniversary. I pray we get to travel and enjoy life like this one day.
That is special that your anniversary is on Valentine's Day! How many years have you been married? I pray God blesses you with many more years. I hope you get to travel too and enjoy your life together. Thanks for watching and commenting.
wow, LOVEDDDDD this video!! and wow, how cool that someone gave you a gift card from there!!
I love a gift card! We really enjoyed our experience here and would definitely go back. Everything was outstanding.
The steaks and sides looked delicious and cooked to perfection. That's so neat how they keep the steaks hot the entire meal. We enjoyed the history of the plantation home and how Ruth's Chris got its name. This place seems perfect for a good fine dining experience.
It was a wonderful dining experience. We enjoyed everything about it. It was definitely the hottest steak I have ever been served and was hot to the last bite. We highly recommend. Hope y'all have a blessed week!
We have never been there before. Everything looked very good. Especially the loster and asparagus. We are glad you had a good time. Happy Valentines Day. 😎😎
We were quite impressed with Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. Sometimes the upscale restaurants have stuff we would not eat. Everything here was delicious and typical food for a steakhouse. Amazing food and service.
We hope you had a wonderful Valentines Day Celebration, Dave and Cindy. From the looks of this it sure looks like you did! We've seen Ruth's Chris Steakhouses in our travels, but have yet to stop at one. The steaks and seafood looked perfect. I too am a little afraid of the Filet Mignon, David. It's not that I don't care for it, it's that I'm always afraid of it being to small. We've heard that the steaks there are done to perfection and it sure looked it! Interesting to hear about how the name came about, Cindy. It is a little pricy as you mention, but you expect that. Loved the plantation look and feel! It's funny, but our next video coming Saturday is also at a famous steakhouse. Not quite as elegant, but a free 72 oz steak! Only catch is, you have to be able to eat it in an hour! 🤣🤣Thanks for bringing us along too Ruth's Chris.
We did have a wonderful Valentine's Day. Hope you had a wonderful Valentine's too! David is working on a video of where we actually went on Valentine's Day. It was Carly's choice. Hopefully it will come out tomorrow. I'm going to guess The Big Texan for your Saturday video. We went there about 10 years ago. Carly was little. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
What a beautiful RUTH'S CHRIS restaurant. Glad yall enjoyed yalls Valentines meal and great choices yall ordered. As soon as I win the lottery I'm headed up there,lol! 😂
The building was absolutely beautiful and full of history. We definitely enjoyed the meal. If we go back again I would like to try the baked potato. Love a good fresh and hot baked potato. Fingers crossed you win the lottery! lol Hope y'all have a great week.
Food looked amazing! Thanks for taking us along with y’all. ❤
Our pleasure! The food was delicious and the atmosphere was very nice too. Such a nice experience. Hope y'all have a fantastic week!
Well, aren't you two fixed up nice!!
This is a beautiful Ruth's Chris. That's one place that we've never been before, mainly because of the prices. But it looks like a great place, I'm glad you all had an enjoyable night out.
Thank you! We really did enjoy it. We were pleased with our entire experience. This has been on our bucket list for a very long time. So glad we finally got to go. I think you and Shawnasi would really enjoy it. I know they have some beautiful locations but I love history so this was perfect for us.
First of all let me say you 2 look snazzy in your Date Day Dinner Clothes ! I even noticed Cindy wearing a ring and got her Glam on so Cindy you are looking lovely ! I love the style of mansion the Steak House is in . Wow I Didn’t realize that they didn’t post their prices . I knew they where expensive though because I always wanted to go . ( I maybe will 🤔 have to wait for me a gift card cause I almost tripped and fell over $175 .00 lol I was up walking and heard that and I literally turned quick and almost killed myself that part I’m not kidding about but the gift card part I’m kidding that I need to get one before going ! That was a nice present though ) I Green Brier is that expensive and several restaurants in The Smoky’s but you know it’s a special occasion and roses and candy would be almost that much I rather have a good steak and the memories made there . I know it’s good when my BFF Cindy don’t get chicken and gets steak and enjoyed it like she did . I’m all about hot food I hate cold food I get that from
My mom she use to get so upset when we was younger and we didn’t get to the table while the food was good and hot . I say the same thing now to Greg lol . That ASMR of that steak sizzling has starved me to death . I actually ate chicken my entire anniversary week I knew I would be wanting a steak . So now I’m here eating my Sunnyland Farms chocolate covered pecans and imagining it’s a big juicy steak . Thanks for taking us along with you . Everything looked
fantastic!!I hope you both Had a Great Valentines 💝 Day !!! 🧡🤍Ren
Thanks for the compliment. I actually bought out some of my David Yurman for this occasion. Not sure if you could see the bracelet because of my sweater. I knew you would notice. Everything was outstanding and we enjoyed our experience so much. Everything was so hot. When we go back again (no time in the near future) I am going to get a baked potato. Can you imagine how hot that will be? Now if you are eating Sunnyland Farms chocolate covered pecans you are eating something good! Enjoy!
@@vafunseekers oh yes that’s what I was eating ! I have a new vice now fried pecans you got to try them so good ! I will text you then
To see what to get . No I didn’t see the bracelet I did notice the ring immediately you know I love jewelry . A baked potato would be so good ! Glad you all enjoyed it !!! 🧡🤍
Thanks for taking us along! Happy Valentine's Day!
Thanks for watching! It was an awesome experience! Happy Valentine's Day to both of you!
thats smart beating the v-day rush! just starting the video, still watching. 😊
It wasn't crowded at all when we got there. Of course we got there at 4:00 PM when they opened. We had our reservation for a few weeks.
You were very close to where I grew up! I grew up on the "south side" of Richmond in Chesterfield County. My family lived in Midlothian for 5 years and then moved to the Bon Air area back in Richmond. I lived off of Genito Road which was off of Route 360. I graduated from Clover Hill High School in Midlothian in 1984. I know exactly where Huguenot Road is. Enjoyed the vlog, and we always enjoy your vlogs! Fellow Virginians! Have a great evening! Kenny Davis
Thanks for sharing! We always enjoy hearing that we have been in areas that our subscribers either live or are from. There are so many places in Virginia that we have been to but lots we still need to get to. Appreciate you watching our vlogs and taking the time to comment. Hope you have a fantastic week!
So glad ya'll finally went. I'm with Cindy the filet mignon is the best anywhere- so tender & delicious. I also agree the cheesecake is wonderful. Such a great atmosphere and service. Glad ya'll enjoyed it ❤
It was beyond amazing! I never have had a steak served that hot and it staying hot to the last bite. We were definitely impressed with our dining experience here. I normally get chicken everywhere I go but I would definitely get the filet again if we go back here. Thanks for watching and commenting!
What a special dinner! It all looked so good. We have been to a Ruth's Chris , and we were really impressed with our meals. Thanks for the video!
It really was special Amy. We loved out experience and would definitely go again. What location did you go to? This location was unique because of it being in the plantation house. I've seen some very elegant looking Ruth's Chris Restaurants. Appreciate you watching as always.
@@vafunseekers We went to one in Cary, NC, near Raleigh. It was very nice inside, and the staff really made us feel special, but to me, the Midlothian location was gorgeous and unique.
Everything looked delicious! Great video.
Everything was outstanding. All of the food was prepared perfectly. So glad we finally got to try our Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. We definitely recommend it. Hope y'all have a great week.
I wonder if there's any ghost stories with that building
Hmmm. I bet there is! Now you've got me wondering. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Happy Valentine Day to one of my favorite CZcams families 🌹Love you guys ( and gals)❤️
Your comments always make us smile. You always have something so kind to say. We are so glad you are part of our CZcams family. Hope you have a Happy Valentine's Day!
Gosh I haven’t been to a Ruth Chris in years. I think this is my sign. Up here in northern VA we have Flemings as well. I think there’s also a location in the Richmond area.
This is definitely your sign to go to a Ruth's Chris. Everything we had was absolutely amazing. We have never tried a Flemings before but have heard of it. I believe the location in Richmond is at Stony Point. Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy Ruth's Chris when you go!
Oh wow, our Ruth's Chris does not look anything like that beautiful house you guys went too. I would say the price is higher there to pay for that large Plantation!
This is such a beautiful location. The food was also out of this world good. Will definitely go back again to celebrate. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Happy Valentine's Day. Another great video. The food looked amazing.
Happy Valentine's to you too! Glad you enjoyed the video. The food was outstanding and we highly recommend coming here for a special occasion. A little more pricey than our normal places but soooo good! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Happy Valentine's , great review .. glad you guys enjoyed it .
Thank you! We enjoyed our Valentine's meal here. Appreciate you watching and commenting. Happy Valentine's Day!
Wonderful! Happy Valentines Day!
Thank you! You too! It was such a beautiful building, with delicious food and great service. Happy Valentine's Day! Thanks for watching and commenting.
OMG, that food looked absolutely fabulous! I could almost taste that steak and lobster. A meal fit for a king or queen!! Would love to try this place but afraid the prices are way more than my monthly SS allotment would permit. Glad y’all got to experience this place. Another great video!
Everything was fabulous! Absolutely no complaints from us. Maybe you can get Kelly to take you there on your anniversary in April. ♥
@@vafunseekers Will never happen!! He’d choke on the food prices!
@@lindaobrien2908 Never say never! lol @ choking on the food prices
that is a beautiful location. some crazy prices there but hopefully it was really good.
The location was so beautiful and historical. I love history so I enjoyed looking around inside. We knew the prices before we went so we were not shocked. Both of us enjoyed our meals and the experience. It would have been really bad if we didn't enjoy it at those prices. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
Looks like y'all had an awesome dinner together. The meals and the dessert looked delicious. Love the history of the house.
It was! Really enjoyed our food here. Everything was perfectly prepared. Loved the location and the history of the plantation house. It was a beautiful setting. Hope you have a wonderful week.
Hi guys and happy Valentine's Day 💝 Please wish Carly a Happy Birthday. I saw the birthday video! 🎉
I am wondering something way off of the restaurant topic lol...what are those awesome looking big bugs or bug that flew by the camera at the end of the video??
P.S. i haven't been able to try the Hush Puppies that you guys sent me yet, because i first had a sinus infection and now a stomach bug it seems. It's been hanging on for a while now 😢
I will let you know asap how they are when I'm better and able to enjoy food again!
Thanks for the birthday wishes. So sorry to hear that you have been under the weather. Hope you are feeling better soon. Both of those things will make you feel so bad.
I'm not sure what type of bug it was. We watched the video and couldn't tell.
We really enjoyed dining at Ruth's Chris and thought everything was excellent. Hope you get feeling better and have a good week.
Happy Valentines day ❤I never heard that part of Virginia or this place thanks for sharing y'all awesome
You are so welcome! It was in Midlothian, which is on the outskirts of Richmond.
@@vafunseekers cool
Food look great Thanks for sharing
Everything was outstanding. I could not believe how hot the steak was up until the last bite. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
All the food looked perfect. I love a good steak. I can't get over them searing the steak at 1800 degrees. WOW! That is some heat.😂 The garlic mashed potatoes look perfect. I glad ya'll had a great early Valentine's Day dinner. Have a blessed day my friends.
Everything was perfectly prepared. That 1800 degrees made for an amazing steak. We really enjoyed our meal here and would definitely go back.
It is funny that this is your first time at a Ruth's Chris Steakhouse... because we just went to a Ruth's Chris Steakhouse for the first time back in the fall for our anniversary. I thought my steak was delicious - however I think the steaks at several other steakhouses we have been to are just as good. And they are a lot less expensive elsewhere. Jack actually did order a chicken dish at Ruth's Chris (because of the prices of steaks). And we did both think his chicken was delicious. But the service was AMAZING! We have never received so much attention from the wait staff. They checked on us. They told us stories and engaged us in conversation. Any more attention would have been too much. But they got it just right. We will definitely go back sometime... but it will be rare. It is really cool that this particular location is in an old plantation house. Very cool setting. Thanks for sharing your review!
Did you do a video on your Ruth's Chris experience? We enjoyed our experience here so much. I'm not really a steak eater but I really enjoyed the steak here. Luckily we had the gift card that helped with the payment. Appreciate your continued support!
me again, (maybe one of your biggest fans, lol) .. so, at 10:15 - i would have thought the lemon would have the fancy little netting on it, where there’s a rubber band built in to hold it in place, so that when he squeezes it over the lobster, those seeds dont end up in the meat. just the little details that, for that kind of money, i would include if it was my place, but hey, it all looks amazing, still watching. 😊
Little details do mean a lot. That's a great idea. Everything was amazing!
The Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse is about 4 miles from my house! The taste David may not recognize is probably the Sherry. It is frequently used in bisque style soups. I’m glad you were able to have a nice Valentine’s Day dinner together. Happy Valentine’s Day to you both. ❤
Would love to have met you for a cup of coffee (even though I don't drink coffee....lol). Everything here was delicious. It may be sherry that he tasted. He liked the soup but said he would get salad next time. He loves a good salad. Happy Valentine's Day to you!
❤❤❤
💘Thanks for watching! Happy Valentine's Day!
Looked great enjoyed the review
Thanks for watching! We really enjoyed our experience here. We had been wanting to come here for awhile but just never had done it. We don't normally do fine dining but this was a good experience.
at 7:24 those look like langoustine lobsters, which are very small lobsters, but still in the lobster family, and look much like crawfish bodies and are commonly used in lobster bisque. ok, back to the video. 😊
Your are an expert my friend on seafood. All I know is David really enjoyed it.
Thank you for not using A1.
LOL You are welcome. Thanks for watching.
For the prices they charge the plates are very messy. Not what you would expect from a upscale restaurant.
Are you referring to the butter that is on the plate? That's how they prepare the steak and it is delicious to dip the steak in.
What are you talking about
With them serving the steaks on a 500 degree plate, you would think the steak would keep cooking ...so it's over done in temp.
I had thought about that too. All I know is it was delicious from the first to last bite. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
Food looks good
Everything was delicious! Definitely recommend for anyone who is thinking of trying here. Hope you are having a good weekend.
@@vafunseekers yes I am
Where was the dessert price ?
The dessert was included with our meal. They have a separate dessert menu. The cost of each dessert is $12. They are bigger because the one we had was a personal size. I would like to try their chocolate cake. The cheese cake was awesome!
Nice place this Jessica Fallen
Jessica, It really was a nice place. We enjoyed it so much.
