Fine Dining Restaurants near Carterville, IL

“Ruthie’s was genuinely an incredible experience. The lobster bisque; I will be dreaming of for the rest of my life. I almost wonder if I could order it in bulk, it was so amazing!
The broccolini family style was covered in thick pieces of very flavorful quality bacon. Smokey, salty, fresh. My garden salad was extremely fresh, clean, and served beautifully. My only suggestion is maybe chop the greens a bit more, because it is impractical to use a butter knife, so we don’t look like a horse eating hay at the table.
Our overall dining experience was a 12/10, our server was very kind, knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. She answered our questions about drink pricing, was very attentive, brought our food/drinks in a timely manner ( refills, too.), and made sure to clear our plates when finished immediately.
We will most definitely be making Ruthie’s a spot we visit often. I was very impressed being the location. Thank you Ruthie’s and to our server, you were absolutely fabulous!“

“Amazing place! Very friendly staff and great environment. Would definitely visit again.“
