What you can eat here
Pulled from Gluto's celiac safety report for this location.
✅ Reported safe options
- Steaks (various cuts such as Filet, Ribeye, New York Strip, T-Bone, Porterhouse for Two) are described as solid gluten-free choices within Ruth’s Chris gluten-free guidance.
- Gluten-free signature sides explicitly listed: Grilled Asparagus (with hollandaise), Cremini Mushrooms (pan roasted with thyme), Roasted Brussels Sprouts (with bacon and honey butter), Mashed Potatoes (with roasted garlic hints), Baked Potato (load as desired).
- Gluten-free desserts mentioned: Flourless Chocolate Sin Cake and Vanilla Crème Brûlée (with berries).
- Gluten-free appetizers noted: Seafood Cocktails (Seafood Cocktail / Chilled Seafood Tower) as GF options, with seafood being a highlighted starter path.
- Salads prepared GF: Caesar Salad (hold the croutons) and other salads that can be served GF when requested.
⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination
- The restaurant is not described as a dedicated gluten-free facility, which means cross-contamination risk remains a consideration even with a GF menu.
- Some reports note that there is no dedicated fryer, and guards against cross-contact may be item- and day-specific (e.g., fries being unsafe due to fryer cross-contact earlier in the day).
- A few times, salads or dishes were reported with hidden gluten-containing components (e.g., croutons or toppings) before staff intervened; these underscore the importance of pre-order communication and kitchen confirmation.
- Overall, however, a large number of recent experiences show strong staff knowledge, proactive kitchen checks, and safe outcomes when diners communicate their needs.
