In Singapore, the 7,800 square foot restaurant is located in the five-star Marina Mandarin Singapore, which stands in the thriving center of the city with views of the financial district and Marina Bay. This location marks the seventh Ruth's Chris Steak House to open in Asia by franchisee-owner restaurant group Hasmore Limited, adding to their existing locations in Tokyo, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The Ruth's Chris Steak House in San Salvador is located in the World Trade Center - the tallest building in the city and home to the convention center, office space, hotels, banks and more – in the heart of the thriving financial district.  The restaurant is owned and operated by Corporacion Piramide S.A. de C.V. under the leadership of Conrado and Mercedes Rovira.  This is the first Ruth's Chris Steak House for the group, who expects to open additional locations throughout Central America.

"We celebrate the expansion of our Ruth's Chris Steak House presence in Asia and our new entry into Central America, bringing our global reach to 134 restaurants strong," said Michael P. O'Donnell, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ruth's Hospitality Group, Inc. "With these two openings – we proudly recognize both a long-time franchise partner and warmly welcome a new group into the Ruth's Chris family."
