- BBrianIowa •12 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoThis was our first time at Ruth Chris in DSM, I have been to a few locations before but this was by far my best experience. We requested a booth and wanted quiet and private for our date night and what we got exceeded our expectations. Rob our waiter was exceptional. He made sure every part of our dinner was perfect. Oddly enough it gets harder and harder to receive this kind of service nowadays. We tried their special this month for the 3 for 60 and a selection of cocktails with our dinner. My steak was cooked to perfection and I had forgotten how nice it is to have a hot steak throughout the meal. Even my cappuccino with desert was perfect. We will be back as this was by far the best meal out in the metro and we are frequent diners to Greenbrier, Johnny’s, Coopers Hawk and even Flemings. No question on where I would prefer a special dinner out next time so if you haven’t tried it add it to your list!More infoRuth's Chris Steak House - West Des Moines$$$$• Steakhouse• West Des Moines•4.7
