| Comments: | OVERPRICED, OVERRATED. If you want to pay some of the highest prices in Kansas City, get excellent service, enjoy a lovely setting, and get average food, then this is your new favorite restaurant. If you want good steak, don't mess with this place. You won't pay much more at the Plaza III, and it's actually worth your money. |

| Comments: | Our meal was excellent until it came time for dessert. Our otherwise excellent waiter went through a five minute explanation of their offerings. We ordered coffee & one dessert and then waited over 15 minutes just for the desert but no fork. At 20 minutes we had to stop our waiter to return the desert and ask for our check. We never got a fork or the coffee.

| Comments: | this restaurant has got to be one of the worst values in kansas city. after recently taking a large group of customers(eight people)and waiting an hour for a table,with a reservation, then waiting nearly another hour for our either burned or raw steaks the bill for over $100 a person sealed the deal. |

| Comments: | Ruth's in Kansas City is without a doubt one the best locations hands down. We've tried numerous other steakhouses in KC and none hold a candle to the atmosphere, food quality, and execution of Ruth's. Don't waste your money eating anywhere else. |
