About Ruth’s Chris Steak House:  Ruth Chris Steak House was founded over 46 years ago by Miss Ruth Fertel of New Orleans, Louisiana. Ruth’s Chris Steak House restaurants continue to serve their customers today as Miss Ruth did--- on specially designed broilers, searing USDA prime, Midwestern corn-fed steaks at 1,800 degrees. From the beginning, Ruth believed in quality with hands-on direction, breaking the mold of other cookie-cutter style restaurants. In 1977 the franchise began, now serving fine steaks at over 120 locations in the United States and four foreign countries. www.ruthschris.com
