I wouldn't call Ruth's a "hip" place. Its a very high-end establishment that prides itself on great service and even better food. Really elegant decor too. I agree with the Chophouse comment though, I was very underwhelmed the last time I went there. Not trying to discount your opinion here, I just feel like I should defend Ruth's Chris because I was so satisfied with my meal there, even for the high prices.
