Tomahawk Ribeye ($130)
Since Ruth Fertel opened Ruth’s Chris Steak House in the 1970s, it has become a reliable steak house — with locations all over the country — where you can get all the classic “fixings.” But that doesn’t mean that the franchise doesn’t like to continually reinvent itself.
Several months ago, Ruth’s Chris debuted about a dozen new items. The revamp, explains executive chef Eser Domingo, marks one of the chain’s most substantial changes ever. Here’s a look at a few of the new things you can find on the menu.

Crab Stack ($21)
There’s Crab Stack ($21), which features a cucumber salad with red onions and red bell peppers, along with fresh mango, cilantro, fresh avocado and Colossal lump blue crab. It’s all topped with a house-made champagne vinaigrette.
Another new appetizer is Fire-Roasted Corn ($12), featuring fresh corn sautéed with salsa verde, and fresh red and green peppers.

And, of course, if you’re coming to Ruth’s Chris, you’re going to want to get some steak. So why not go all out with what Domingo calls “the king of all steaks” — Tomahawk Ribeye ($130). It’s a huge cut of USDA Prime bone-in ribeye.
“It’s 40 ounces, so that’s roughly about two pounds of meat,” Domingo says. “It’s meant to be shared, but I have seen people eat it by themselves.”
