I should also note that it's restaurant week in DC, so there's a full three course (appetizer, main, dessert) meal for a cheap price.
Ruth's Chris steak is pretty amazing, though. They serve it on a 500 degree plate, sizzling in butter. It melts in your mouth. Morton's was a tad more chewy to me. Morton's was also more expensive.
Oh, and RC was a choice of 12 or 16 oz while Morton's was only 6I got a crab cake with mine and that was pineappleing delicious.
Oh you're in DC? I'm like 40 minutes away from there. Yes ruths chris (fortunately I have one right down the street from my work) is the best steak place I've ever been too. Morton's was a close second but it depends on the day really. Restaurant week you're probably not going to get their best, but certainly is worth the price (imo).
Definitely go to old ebbit grill if you haven't yet. That place is amazing. But only if you like Oysters.
