If you’re looking for a serene atmosphere, this is not the place; but if you want prime rib, it is.

Dining room at House of Prime Rib, San Francisco, CAOld school dark atmosphere dominates this windowless room that feels like a relic of the 1950s. But if you are on the hunt for decent prime rib, you'll be pleased. You get the works here, from the icy salad dressed at the table to the slabs of rare to well-done prime rib, carved tableside, plus baked potato, Yorkshire pudding and cream of horseradish sauce. The wine list suits the menu (mostly reds) and there’s a full bar that serves charming cocktails. Your martini or Manhattan arrives in the shaker.
