Dining room at The Prime Rib Restaurant, Baltimore, MDSexy black lacquer walls, a leopard-print carpet, a white, Lucite-topped piano complete with tuxedoed player teasing out jazzed-up standards---we get giddy just thinking about this place. Huge sprays of flowers fill the wall’s arched niches. And the vivacious clamor of a tony crowd, part power brokers, part romancers, greets us like the happy sound of ice cubes clinking in two-fingers of bourbon. When that strip steak comes it will be lush, dry-aged, and seared to a caramelized finish. The prime rib, heaped with fresh horseradish, will drape cunningly across the plate. The baked rockfish, simply brushed with lemon butter, will be fresh, moist, and oh-so-flavorful. And the sides of mashed potatoes and creamed spinach will be wickedly rich. Troll the wine list to discover some fabulous Californians, including the occasional endangered species. This is straight-up American steakhouse dining, and there’s not much that can top it.
