    We were greeted by a friendly and welcoming host. Our waiter was impressive with his knowledge of the cuisine and explanation of some customer favorites. We also appreciated the photographer on hand. Her pictures were very well done. Our table purchased four group pictures. The ambiance was beautiful and positive.

    We enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner at La Belle Helene. Everything was delicious and perfectly prepared: the turkey was so moist, the gravy was perfect, the potatoes and stuffing were great and the green beans had a nice little crunch to them. Our server was so friendly and professional and really made it such a nice occasion. I had never dined out on Thanksgiving and was worried about it but our experience here exceeded all expectations!

    Hands down, an excellent experience. We had an unexpected guest join us, making our table of 4 a table of 5, and they accommodated us on Thanksgiving. Our server, Juwaun, (forgive my spelling), was incredible. He was personable and made time for us. The restaurant was slam full, but he made us feel like we were his only customers. The food was incredible (I don't even eat red meat!). The salad bar is amazing! I recommend everything! Overall, an outstanding experience.

    Thanksgiving at Ruth’s Chris - A Delightful Feast! Yesterday, we decided to celebrate Thanksgiving at Ruth’s Chris, and it was everything my palate had imagined! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for the holiday. The meal was exceptional—each dish beautifully prepared and bursting with flavor. The turkey was perfectly tender, and the sides were a dream, especially the sweet potato casserole and creamy mashed potatoes. Everything tasted fresh and seasoned to perfection. The service was impeccable as well. The staff made us feel welcome and went above and beyond to ensure our Thanksgiving dinner was special. Ruth’s Chris truly exceeded expectations, and this year’s Thanksgiving will be one to remember. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make their holiday stress-free and delicious!
