Legendary Fine Dining Restaurant, Ruth’s Chris Steak House, Opens in Somerville, Mass.

Beloved steak house– known for serving steaks on 500-degree sizzling plates – announces opening in Somerville’s historic Assembly Row


SOMERVILLE, Mass., Nov. 22, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Famed fine-dining establishment, Ruth’s Chris Steak House, will officially open its 159th location in Somerville’s historic Assembly Row on Monday, November 25. This timeless American steak house has been serving steaks on sizzling 500-degree plates for more than five decades. The beloved restaurant joins Assembly Row – a live, work, play district – and will offer guests its world-class hospitality along with its signature steaks, sophisticated array of wines and a few new menu items.  

The new 8,149-square-foot steak house will complement Assembly Row – which is home to Somerville’s premier restaurants and retail shops – as the new staple for date nights, celebratory dinners, company parties, family gatherings and just because. In addition to the main dining room and lounge that seats 179 people, the Somerville location also has two expansive private dining rooms to seat up to 62 people, making it the perfect spot to host a private event. Whether it’s dinner for two or a large event, the restaurant’s menu delivers its signature cuts of steak from filet to ribeye, made from scratch sides (such as its classic creamed spinach), decadent desserts and handcrafted cocktails. 

“We are honored to call Assembly Row our new home,” says John Allard, General Manager of the Somerville Ruth’s Chris. “Guests and visitors now have a special place to celebrate all of life’s moments and we’re proud to share those with them. Whether guests are looking for a private dining room to mark a significant milestone, or just want to stop by to grab a bite at the bar after shopping, our goal is to be a “must” while visiting Assembly Row.”

Ruth’s Chris has a long history of giving back to the communities it serves, which is why Ruth’s Chris Somerville is dedicating its opening events to The Greater Boston Food Bank – a non-profit serving more than 190 cities and towns throughout Eastern Massachusetts that works to provide at least one meal a day to those in need.  Ruth’s Chris will be collecting donations in support of the Greater Boston Food Bank’s efforts at their private events held on Friday and Saturday prior to the opening. 

The restaurant is open for dinner on weekdays beginning at 5 p.m. and 4 p.m. on weekends. The lounge opens at 4 p.m. everyday where guests can enjoy classic cocktails and full-size appetizers. The Ruth’s Chris location is conveniently located within walking distance of the Orange Line train and close to hotels and shopping all offered throughout Assembly Row.

The Somerville Ruth’s Chris is located at 375 Revolution Drive, Somerville, MA 02145. Ruth’s Chris Somerville will also feature delivery and pick up options through GrubHub and Caviar.
