new Ruth's Chris MSC

June 18, 2021 08:10PM
Ruth's Chris is now with the MSC that does a lot of reimbursement-only dining shops, The reimbursement is $200, which I think might be an increase from the old MSC. They flew off the board in my city, but with a six month rotation I'll hopefully get a crack at them sooner or later.

I did one but haven't seen it again since it has been less than six months. Easy shop.

It is sort of flying right past my head unless its the same one who does that place that originated in Texas and has a house full or roads. We only have one location of this steak house so its possible someone took it quick. I am also signed up with quite a few that do the reimbursement only. I guess I will find it somehow.

I think we aren't seeing too many of them because the company gives their schedulers and editors first dibs before it goes out on the job board. I know this because I used to help edit with them.

A shopper must have flaked and I was offered one lat minute this past weekend but could not get a reservation for Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.

Did not even realize that this was something that was, for lack of a better term "legal."

They don't do this anymore. Full time editors aren't allowed to accept shops .

I read a thread about this a while ago and apparently the $200 still doesn't cover your meal.

It depends on what you order. They have a pre fixe menu which can get you pretty close. We normally walk out of there paying $30- $40 but we ordered what we want and have alcohol.

No. 5th post in the thread says it

Im assuming if the words in that post doesnt tell you then you arent on that MSC


edit- also im not sure how you have issues staying under $200? their prices are right on par with eddie v's and those shops are what $150? or $300 for a party of 4(plus valet)

Perhaps, but they leave them up to allow people to sign up as backup, so you would still see the shops even if they're assigned.

I did one maybe a month ago? We went over by $60+ thanks to DH, LOL.

The current prefix menu in my area is about 50 bucks a person.

$50 each would be a steal for them! With inflation could you really make that at home for that? Let alone being waited on and not doing dishes. I hope I get a crack at them

Very interesting. I followed your link and it only shows locations in 4 states. In my area, none of the locations have a Prix Fixe Menu at all. Instead, the least expensive entrees are over $50, each appetizer is over $20, each side is over $11, each salad is over $11.
