This was our second time at RH and it did not disappoint! Our first time was for lunch on our anniversary. Tonight was dinner for my sister-in-law’s birthday. RH has now become one of our favorite places to eat!

Great steakhouse in the West End. Prices are low end of typical steakhouse prices but worth it. Flavor wise their chimichurri was phenomenal, better than Porzana's. The ribeye was perfectly prepared and delicious with or without the chimichurri. The asparagus was delicious as well, perfectly prepared and deliciously seasoned. Our server, Jada, was wonderful. Attentive but not overbearing.

I met 3 friends for lunch. We shared 2 meatballs as an appetizer. They were fantastic and 2 meatballs were plenty for an appetizer. Our meal orders were all over the menu. All were delicious but the winner was the "Minute Chicken". We shared the Banana Pudding for dessert. There was plenty to share and was the best banana pudding that I have ever had. The place was packed on this Tuesday for lunch, but our server, Jessie, treated us as if we were the only table in the house. I can't wait to go back.
