And such a good visit it was. Daughter Marnie and her husband Mac gave us a gift certificate for dinner and we thank them for that. You can find more by clicking here Ruth’s Chris Steak House, Boise. Make reservations online or reserve their Party Room. They have a full and extensive Menu that can be viewed online and get an idea of what they offer. Not ready for dinner? Try their Happy Hour Menu for lighter offerings. “… Our Sizzle, Swizzle and Swirl Happy Hour features $8 food specials and premium cocktails.” You will find the menu items either equal to or greater than Chandler’s Steak House or to the Cottonwood Grille. Ruth’s Chris Steak House, Boise is definitely a 5-Star restaurant. Here is what we had. Two of us ate for $123.00 and it was worth every bite. Definitely a Special Occasion restaurant; Great for “Date Night”.. Enjoy!

We brought our own 2005 Ridge Zinfandel ($10 corkage fee), but they do have a wide selection of wines. They also offer sparkling water instead of “tap” water if you desire.

Petite Filet. “USDA Prime served sizzling on a 500° plate – every bite is as
delicious as the first.” This was delicious! Loved the way the sides came in their own bowls. The Creamed Spinach was super good with a touch of nutmeg. The Mushrooms accompanied the steak very well. Robin had Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Creamed Spinach.
Everything looks delicious! I don’t know where the crab meat is from but Florida blue crab meat (backfin, jumbo lump) averages $37/lb. here.

Hi Kathy-
I would say our Blue Crab does not come from FL or MD or DE. My guess? Asia. I know Phillips is from Asia and rarely from the Eastern Shore. Phillips I pay $17/lbs. Not like the fresh kind, but good. Our local supplier of fresh seafood (within 24 hrs of being caught) has soft shells once in a while for $30/lbs. (I’m on the list for Eastern Shore Blue Crab from them.) Ruth’s in Boise are probably West Coast, probably Oregon or Washington. I asked the Assist Manager of Ruth’s where their Blue came from and he never returned.
