House of Prime Rib, San Francisco

My husband and I ate dinner here for valentines day....what can I say I have never had such incredible service. Our waiter greeted us with a smile. His name was Josh, he was very nice and polite. We never had to wait for anything. The prime rib was melt in your mouth delicious..during our dinner we recieved a upsetting phone call which caused me to cry, quickly the waiter escorted me to the rest room, as I pulled myself together the manager came in to check on me. After returning to my table she came to offer drinks on her. I have never been treated so wonderfully in a restraunt, if you are in san francisco and do not eat here you will be missing out on a lovely meal and service. I can not wait to go back.

When i was flying, i opened a magazine and saw the top steak houses in America, THE HOUSE OF PRIME RIB was listed number one in San Fran so i decided to go with a buddy of mine. MAKE RESERVATIONS EARLY!! it was 5pm when we called and they only had reservations for 930pm that night. We arrived and its a very nice inside, nice bartenders, we were seated and they ONLY have PRIME RIB, they made us a custom salad, awesome sourdough bread freshly made, and when we're ready to order they rolled out the cart and cut our prime rib to our choice of thickness. We ordered the KING HENRY (just used to determine size) ($43 BUT TOTALLY WORTH IT) i got mine medium and its pure HEAVEN! Will go to this place EVERY time i visit San Fran. Best Prime Rib I've EVER eaten!

Excellent! The prime rib was the best I've ever had. The atmosphere and unique preparation of the meal, start to finish, was an interesting presentation that added to the meal and the service was flawless. Highly recommend.

This is my husband's favorite restaurant and we come here for special occasions. We enjoy the atmosphere, the food, and usually, the service. Unfortunately, the last time, our waiter was distracted. For example, we had to prompt him to even get dessert. When my husband made his selection, the waiter walked off without giving me a chance to order. It was rude and I would honestly expect to be asked first, being a lady, from a first class place House of Prime Rib claims to be. There was a mishap with food selection at the table to the right and something wrong with the table to the left. Other than the service....we loved the food. I must note that I am particularly fond of their coffee also. In some restaurants their regular coffee is awful, but I look forward to enjoying a cup of coffee with my dessert (if I have a chance to order it :-)). If the service improves, I will move up the 4 stars to 5. Going there this Friday!

ON NOVEMBER 13 2010 I HAD A DINING EXPERIENCE THAT WAS ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE HAD IN MY LIFE. I HAD A 4PM RESERVATION. FROM THE TIME MY WIFE AND I WERE SEATED, I COULD SEE THAT THE WAIT STAFF WERE A WELL OILED TEAM. IT HAD THE APPEARENCE OF A BALLET. THE SALAD WAS ABSOLUTELY THE LARGEST SALAD I HAVE EVER SEEN. I LOVE A GOOD CUT OF MEAT THAT IS WELL PREPARED. I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED. I HAVE 2 CRITERIA THAT I CONSIDER THE ESSENCE OF A GOOD STEAK. I ORDER MY STEAKS MEDIUM RARE. IT IS HARD TO GET THE STEAK HOT ALL THE WAY THROUGH AND NOT LOSE THE REQUESTED DONENESS OF MEDIUM RARE,THE OTHER IS THE PIECE OF MEAT DOES NOT NEED TO HAVE ANYTHING ADDED FOR FAVOR SUCH AS SALT AND PEPPER. OUR WAITRESS BROUGHT THE HORSERADISH TO THE TABLE. I NORMALLY WILL USE HORSERADISH JUST FOR A FAVOR ENHANCER. MY PRIME RIB WAS SO GOOD IT DIDN'T NEED ANYTHING ADDED. IT WAS THE BEST PRIME RIB I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE AND I AM 58 YEARS OLD, I HAVE EATEN LOTS OF PRIME RIB. I WAS EXPECTING THE PRICE OF THE DINNER TO BE MUCH MORE THAN IT WAS. I HAVE PAID MUCH HIGHER PRICES FOR A PRIME RIB DINNER AND DIDN'T GET NEAR AS MUCH IN THE WAY OF STARTERS. IF I WERE TO RATE THE PRIME RIB AT THE HOUSE OF PRIME RIB FROM 1 TO 10, I COULD NOT DO ITBECAUSE IT IS IN A CLASS ALL BY ITSELF. MY SCORE WOULD BE A 100 THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL DINING EXPERIENCE.

After seeing this restaurant on Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations TV show I decided I had to dine there. On a vacation from Hawaii we were looking for San Fran's best. Our first dinner was at HoPR. The service was excellent. The waiter was very personable. The food was awesome. Best prime rib I ever had. This was the best meal we had on our trip (including dinner at Michael Mina). Very reasonably priced, I would dare say cheap considering you get a salad, bread, prime rib, potato and vegetable all for around $35. If you're a meat lover you gotta eat here.

Wow, the best prime rib I ever had! I think my dad agreed. I took my parents when they came to visit when I was living in the bay area. My dad and I ordered that KING's cut. Mom had the petite. My mom said she never sees my dad eats that much of anything. I am now living in socal and always make a stop here for the KING's cut. Can't wait til next month...

Simply the best prime rib West (and probably East) of the Rockies. When I was there last year, the service was excellent (earning the server a fat tip.) Oh, and did I mention the excellent prime rib. Delicious. Places like this need to stay in business.
