Ruth’s Chris Steak House Aruba brings the iconic American steakhouse chain to Palm Beach, located inside the Aruba Marriott Resort on L.G. Smith Boulevard. The trademark sizzling-plate presentation, USDA Prime cuts, and elevated tableside service deliver exactly what fans of the brand expect — set against an oceanside resort backdrop.

About Ruth’s Chris Steak House
Tucked inside the Marriott complex (the entrance can be a touch tricky to find — head through the resort lobby toward the casino wing), the restaurant features classic dark-wood Ruth’s Chris décor, a polished bar, and an attentive bilingual staff. Reservations are strongly recommended via OpenTable, especially in high season. The menu mirrors stateside locations with USDA Prime steaks finished at 1,800°F and served on 500°F sizzling plates, supplemented with fresh Caribbean seafood (Ahi tuna, lobster tail, jumbo shrimp) and an excellent wine list.

Signature Dishes & What to Order
Order the filet mignon or ribeye — both consistently delivered at the requested temperature. The cream spinach is the universal side recommendation; the lobster mac and cheese is a worthwhile splurge. The Ahi tuna appetizer gets repeated ‘just perfect’ praise from reviewers. For dessert, the double chocolate is a standout. Wine pairings are well-curated and the by-the-glass list is more generous than most resort restaurants.

Practical details worth knowing
Aruba sits outside the hurricane belt, which is why the weather here stays reliable when much of the Caribbean does not. The island runs on the US dollar alongside the Aruban florin, so American visitors rarely need to change money, and English is spoken almost everywhere alongside Dutch, Papiamento and Spanish.
Distances are short. The island is roughly 32 kilometres long and 10 wide, so nothing is more than about 40 minutes from anywhere else. Most visitors base themselves on Palm Beach or Eagle Beach and reach the rest of the island by tour or rental car.
When to go
Rates and crowds peak from January through April. May to early December is quieter and noticeably cheaper, with calmer seas and the same near-constant sunshine. Rainfall stays low year-round, and what does fall tends to arrive as brief afternoon showers rather than washed-out days.
Booking ahead
Tours sell out faster than hotels here. Reserve 24 to 48 hours ahead in low season and three to five days ahead in peak months, particularly for catamaran sails and sunset cruises. Most bookings cancel free up to 24 hours before, so there is little downside to locking something in early.

These are the best-reviewed trips in this category right now, ranked by rating weighted against review volume so a single five-star review does not outrank a thousand. Prices update automatically and free cancellation applies up to 24 hours before on nearly all of them.
