Asheville Welcomes Back Ruth’s Chris Steak House After Hurricane Helene

In the heart of Asheville, a beacon of resilience has shone bright following the recent turmoil caused by Hurricane Helene. Ruth’s Chris Steak House, a beloved family-owned restaurant, has successfully reopened its doors, bringing a sense of normalcy and comfort to the community that has come together during these trying times.

Reopening and New Beginnings

After facing the fierce winds and rains of Hurricane Helene, the dedicated team at Ruth’s Chris wasted no time in getting back up on their feet. The restaurant proudly announced that it resumed operations on Saturday, October 12, 2024, allowing locals to once again enjoy their famous steaks and a variety of dining options. Located at 26 All Souls Crescent, it’s a hub for those looking for a tasty meal in a welcoming atmosphere.

For now, they’re offering daily takeaway service seven days a week, but if you’re looking to dine in, the restaurant has also reopened for in-restaurant dining and bar service. Patrons can indulge in a delightful menu featuring some of their favorite dishes, paired with a great selection of cocktails, wine, and beer. The doors swing open daily at 11 a.m., making it easier for everyone to pop in at their convenience.

A Special Tribute to First Responders

As a heartfelt gesture to the first responders who worked tirelessly during the recovery efforts, Ruth’s Chris Steak House is hosting a notable complimentary meal event on Tuesday, October 15, 2024, from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm. This event is dedicated to all those who put their lives on the line—police, fire, medical personnel, utility workers, and other relief providers—who stepped up for the community when it needed them most.

Each first responder will be treated to a complimentary meal, which includes delicious beef or chicken sliders, a bag of chips, cookies, and a refreshing beverage. This thoughtful initiative is just one way the restaurant is expressing its gratitude for the sacrifices made by these brave individuals. They are invited to come together and enjoy a meal as a token of the community’s appreciation for their selfless service.

A Message of Gratitude and Community Spirit

Kristy Rans, the Owner and President of Prime Hospitality Group, LLC, expressed heartfelt sentiments regarding the hard work and dedication of her team, vendors, and local partners who played a crucial role in reopening the restaurant amid tough conditions. She shared, “We at Ruth’s Chris continue to extend our heartfelt thoughts and prayers to everyone affected by Hurricane Helene. Although our Team Members, vendors, utilities, and local partners have been dealing with the aftermath of the storm, they courageously stepped up and have worked tirelessly around the clock during this challenging time to help us reopen our doors and provide the kind of hospitality our Ruth’s Chris family and community is known for. Our heartfelt thank you goes out to each and every one for their unwavering commitment and determination to remain #AshevilleStrong.”

Community Engagement and Civil Dialogue

Local platforms encourage respectful discussions where voices can be heard without negativity overshadowing the important topics at hand. Everyone is invited to participate in these conversations for a better knit community.
