Ruth's Chris Steak House
The Calgary location of the classic American steakhouse chain, at the base of the Calgary Tower, with a separate halal menu rather than an option buried in the regular one - halal-prepared chicken, lamb and select steaks. For a chain steakhouse of this profile, that is unusual. Know what is on it before you book The halal menu is real but short. One party report having only two halal cuts to choose between - the petit filet and the lamb chops - which defeated their plan to compare cuts across the table. Ring ahead and ask what is on it that week if the steak selection is the point of the evening. What to order The 8oz halal Alberta beef steak and the stuffed chicken both get named, with jumbo spicy prawns to start. The petit filet comes out tender enough to cut with a fork. Sides are strong across the board. Good to know Service is the most consistently praised element, ahead of the cooking. Reservations accepted, good for children and groups, with a children's menu, step-free access and free parking. Rated 4.5 from more than 1,100 Google reviews.
