The Albany Ruth’s Chris restaurant brings an extraordinary dining experience unlike anything else in New York’s capital city with its 8,572 square-foot location featuring the finest steaks, the best service and a level of hospitality that has made Ruth’s Chris one of the most revered names in steak since Ruth Fertel opened the first restaurant in 1965. The new space features one main dining room, a luxurious bar and bar-lounge, patio with ample seating, as well as two private dining rooms that can accommodate celebrating a special milestone, entertaining clients, or simply enjoying a night out with friends and family. The space is elegantly appointed and thoughtfully designed to provide a comfortably elegant, warm, and welcoming dining experience for every guest.

“We’ve had the absolute pleasure of serving the community of New York for many years, and are fortunate to make our one-of-a-kind meals available to even more guests in the area,” said William Nicholson, general manager for the Albany Ruth’s Chris. “Ruth’s Chris delivers the ultimate, most hospitable dining experiences in Albany with perfect steaks, warm hospitality and good times that never stop rolling. We look forward to welcoming guests into our restaurant and showcasing the highest quality food, beverages, and service in a warm and inviting atmosphere.”

With more than 150 restaurants around the globe, Ruth’s Chris has been in business since 1965. As part of the pre-opening celebration for its newest restaurant, Ruth’s Chris hosted a special VIP dinner with community leaders, business owners and Ruth’s Chris executives where 100% of the proceeds from the evening were donated to Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York.

“The Albany location is our fifth in the state of New York, representing an exciting expansion in the region that further entrenches us in this area’s fine dining scene,” said Cheryl Henry, President of Ruth’s Chris Steak House. “We’re thrilled to continue to serve this community and look forward to more expansion opportunities in the future.”

At Ruth's Chris, the last bite is just as good as the first. The company’s perfected broiling method and seasoning techniques ensure each cut of USDA Prime beef arrives cooked to perfection and sizzling on a 500-degree plate – just the way Ruth’s Chris founder Ruth Fertel liked it. Representing the highest-quality beef, these cuts are well marbled and hand-selected for thickness and tenderness. Ruth only served her guests the finest, and that’s why Ruth’s Chris serves custom-aged USDA Prime beef.

While Ruth’s Chris’ USDA Prime steaks and their signature sizzle may have put the restaurant on the map, guests can also enjoy fresh seafood, scratch-made side dishes and desserts, craft cocktails and choice wines, all served with the sort of hospitality that would make its namesake proud.

Ruth’s Chris Albany also offers its unbeatable Happy Hour, which includes mouthwatering food and full-size appetizers, hand-crafted cocktails and wine starting at only $9 from 4:00p.m. – 6:00p.m. every Sunday through Friday.
