Good Prime Rib – If you like Prime Rib, a good choice for the food. Don't go for a relaxing dinner though. Restaurant is crowded and noisy. Recent visit was ruined by a very large, very noisy, birthday party group seated right in the center of the dining room. Table conversation was impossible over the noise generated by this party. Service was OK, not great.

Still Awsome – Once again, another birthday, another great dinner. Friendly and attentive service, awesome prime rib and salad. Pretty packed for a Tuesday, but where else can you go for a dinner like this? I wouldn't celebrate anywhere else. Now if they could only make the bathrooms just a little bit bigger . . .

Just okay – Service was slow. Prime rib was good. Side dishes were too salty and the desserts were way too sweet. We had to ask for utensils when dessert showed up.

Good food – Prime rib was excellent, service inside the restaurant was excellent. Our evening ended on a sour note when my husband tried to tip the valet parking attendant as we are accustomed to this in our state. The valet became very irritated and yelled at my husband for insulting him. This truly ruined our experience.

THE BEST PRIME RIB – I love prime rib, and when I graduated from an artschool in SF here is where I went for my graduation dinner. It's elegant, the hostess and wait staff are accomodating, and most important the prime rib and horseradish were of the highest imaginable quality! It's worth the expense!

Great Prime Rib – Promptly seated with great service, we were immediately impressed by the comfortable surroundings and the obvious popularity of the place for large groups. Our main course was much better than expected and we were not rushed through dinner. The only concern would be the salad. It was presented fait accompli with way too much dressing resulting in a soggy salad. The restaurant should make it a policy to always announce that the salad seasoning contains MSG.

Not just dinner, its an event! – The House of Prime Rib is great at what it does - Prime Rib! The atmosphere is lively and comfortable but still upscale. Service is always great - friendly, attentive and not pretentious. The roll around serving cart and spinning salads make for a fun American dining experience that delivers great food with panache, not pomp.
