    Our waiter (BRANDON) was amazing! Very professional and walked us through the entire meal. Gave us recommendations and presented everything so professionally. Food was exceptional. My only criticism was broccolini was way too garlicky. Bread was AMAZING!! Sea Bass was OUT of this WORLD!!

    This is my go to place for a rib eye medium and a perfect medium. There is just a slight crispiness when you bite into it. I always get the porcini mushroom blend for the topping. Sides are tasty. I like the spinach and the mac and cheese. Always enough to take home. Service is above and beyond. You are always remembered if you have been just once. Other servers, hostesses and managers stop by and say hi, nice to see you again. And if you're lucky, Chef Justin will check in on you too.

    Diane, thank you for your kind words and for being a loyal customer at The Prime Rib! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoy our rib eye and our sides. It's great to know that our service and team always make a positive impact on your dining experience. We're delighted that you appreciate the personalized attention and that you always leave feeling satisfied. We look forward to serving you again soon.
