    Such a beautiful Ruth Chris! We’ve eaten at 2 others previously & this is by far our favorite. Incredibly lovely & rich in horse country history. Our server Paul was fantastic with personality & knowledge of the restaurant. What can you say tabout the food at RC. Never disappoints. My brother & sister in laws are planning to visit after our high praise & they live about four hours away. I will say this this is the best time to be here in the off season. A great find!

    I had Lobster Tails and my wife the Crab Cakes. Both were cooked to perfection and served by our lovely server Lynn. Captains Table is one of our favorite eateries in OC. Going back for Christmas Day.

    Crab Cakes best I ever had. Mom's Shrimp was incredible, the sauce it's served with was on another level. Drinks were spot on. Service provided by the bartender, Eric was perfect. He helped guid various patrons into their selections, including myself. Very laid back, not rushing anyone , had everything under control.
