Best

and yes, there are plenty of other delicious things to eat there, BUT if you want a great prime rib, think of The Prime Rib first - I have never been let down by the food or staff...

Worst

Im a steak buff. Love Rays, Mortons, Sam and Harry's and Ruth Chris. Pros: good steaks, nice atmosphere Cons: poor service, lazy staff, better experiences elsewhere.

Fantastic Dining Experience 3/9/2007

The atmosphere is like no other. Very traditional feel and very helpful staff. The food was absolutely fantastic. I had the Prime Rib (bone out) and can honestly say it was the best piece of prime rib I have ever had. The creamed vegetables were crisp and delicious as well. Can't say enough about how enjoyable of an experience this restaurant was. It is more expensive but worth every penny. Pros: Absolutely fantastic dining experience Cons: Very rarely can you say with this with confidence, but it was truly a perfect dining experience more

good food, always overbooked 1/28/2007

The Prime Rib has good steak. Attentive waitstaff. The problem is that they just seem to lack restraint in booking reservations. It's unreasonable to have an 8pm reservation and not get seated until 8:45pm. Probably the best steakhouse in Baltimore, though I don't know how big of a compliment that is. Pros: good food Cons: overcrowded, snobby clientele more

EXCELLENT FOOD!!! 12/14/2004

We were not disappointed when we went here for my husband's birthday. He ordered crab appetizer which was delicious and a nice portion. Ribs were his main course, which were the best he ever had, very meaty and tender. As a vegetarian, I planned on ordering side dishes, but they had a vegetarian platter that wasn't listed on the menu, which included the sides I was planning on ordering and then some. It was also ample and delicious. When I made the reservations I didn't mention it was for his birthday b/c we wouldn't eat the cake anyhow. But the waiter asked if it was a special occasion and my husband said it was his birthday, but not to bring any cake, the waiter surprised us by bringing out a large parfait glass full of fresh strawberries. Pros: caring waitstaff, food, romantic ambience more

Worth its fame 11/29/2004

If you want a steakhouse that's truly worth its value; if you want to try the best steak in your lifetime; if you want a high-class place in Baltimore; if you like dim-light restaurants and live jazz entertainment; if you want to feel high-class and pampered: this is THE steakhouse. No other steakhouse in Baltimore comes close to being this good (in steaks, at least). Pros: Quality of Food, Quality of FOod, Quality of Food Cons: , Not cheap more

THE BEST 3/11/2004

Afer so many years owning, operating, and dining at restaurants throughout this country and some in Europe, I feel that not only does the Prime Rib have exquisite food, especially the Prime Rib, but also it has perfected anticipatory service. With the unusual, dramatic, and gorgeous decor, ambience is sublime. The table tops are picture perfect, featuring International silver flatware and shaded candle lamps and the glass top piano makes the white linened dining room, tuxedoed wait staff, and the crisp white jacketed bartenders a detail of perfection. Pros: Food, Service, Ambience more

Very Nice - TC 2/4/2004

I'm always searching for the best in quality, service & value. As steak houses go, the Prime Rib has gained a spot in my top five. Youll easily drop a $150 for two. However, the proportions are so large, I had to take some home! The food is prepared perfectly & the service is top shelf. If youll budget allow it, trust me, youll enjoy it. Keep looking for ratings from TC. Tough Customer Pros: excellent service, large proportions Cons: , a little expensive more

The Fairest in the land 1/13/2003

Wonderful romantic ambience. You feel Fred Astaire or Gary Grant will walk in wearing tuxedos. The service is impeccable, and the food is in a world unto itself. Wonderful fish and the best steak in town. While not the place you might expect to find it, the best crab cake in this town famous for same. Finally the desserts will send you home deciding you will need to fast for a month Pros: food, ambience, service more
