"I got so lucky to get reservations the day of! Make reservations months ahead because it will be packed! But if you can't, make sure to check the website the day of for any last minute cancellations. House of Prime Rib Cut : a hearty portion of juicy, tender beef. Of course, I had to get the HOPR cut. It was tender, juicy, and delicious! I'm not a carnivoro..." Read more

"My boyfriend surprised me for my birthday by taking me to the House of Prime Rib. This was definitely one of my top birthdays because of the amazing night we had. The food, service, and ambiance were exceptional! We were promptly sat for our 9pm reservation. Our server Monika enthusiastically explained the menu and recommended a nice glass of wine. It comp..."

"It was my friends and I first time coming here, we had heard so many good things about this place. But the experience here was disappointing. We had booked a reservation at 8pm and had checked in. Then another group of 4 had booked the same reservation, but were seated first. It was a little upsetting but I had decided to let it go. I totally understand it's..." Read more

"The meat is good, the sides are MEH and the atmosphere sucks. Super crowded, stuffy, and seems like theyre always rushing to get you in and out of there. For it being such an old school place I thought it would have a little more class. But no, I felt like I was in a crowded dive bar on game day. Cool to go if you want good meat, but not worth the anxiety of..." Read more

"SO GOOD! This is the place to go for a no frills but delicious steak dinner. My mouth is watering just think about my meal and I'm not even a "steak person." I got the House of Prime Rib cut (their medium size) cooked to medium and it was perfect -- tender, juicy, flavorful, everything you could want from a giant hunk of meat. Note that the "medium" was stil..." Read more

"What can you not like about tender, flavorful beef and gigantic sides? I went here with my boyfriend and we enjoyed every minute of it. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. She explained the menu to us first-timers, but we had our eyes set on the biggest slab of meat you could get along with a loaded baked potato. I'm usually not a fan of Cobb salads,..." Read more

"Went here on a double date and the food and service was delicious ! I definitely recommend making reservations at least two months ahead if you're planning on going on a Saturday night. My boyfriend and I ordered the King Henry VIII. I got it with mashed potatoes and he got it with the cream spinach. He wasn't a fan of the spinach but the mashed potatoes we..." Read more

"The salad was great, the Yorkshire pudding was great, the sourdough bread was great, the service was impeccable. The only thing that wasn't good was the prime rib. Both my wife and I got meat that was tough and lacking in flavor. I have had much better prime ribs elsewhere. Who wouldda thunk it?"

"Amazing dinner experience, all the food was very hearty and tasty. Usually there's a little wait, but there's a bar that serves amazing drinks inside! Be warned though..The drinks are fairly strong :D we had 2 margaritas each and were really buzzed! The servers were very attentive, and we were stuffed by the end of he meal!! Highly recommend! Just need to tr..." Read more

"Good steaks but not amazing. The texture and presentation were fine but the taste was mediocre. Good for celebrations and special occassions because of the ambiance but I don't think I'll be back"

"This has been one of my go to places whenever I am in San Francisco for decades, and it still holds up after all these years. I was by myself this time as I am here on business so I got there at 4:30 (when the doors open) for a hopeful 5:30 dinner (that is when food service begins). I immediately headed to the bar for one of their generous and delicious mart..." Read more

"There's a debate between Lawry's in Los Angeles and HOPR. I'll say that I think that whichever you had first is the one that you like better. I had Lawry's first so I prefer Lawry's. Between the two the meat is a better at Lawry's, but really what makes Lawry's better are things like the spinning salad, the creamed corn and spinach, the baked potato with..." Read more

"House of Prime Rib is an old school and charming San Francisco establishment. It just screams history as you walk in. I had high hopes for this place because my friends rave about it. I had made reservations about 3 months in advance to come here and eat at a reasonable time because I didn't want to have dinner at 10:30pm at night! This place is happenin' a..." Read more

"This is the best place to get Prime Rib. It was my first time at this place and I will definitely come back again. I had the King Arthur VIII slice with mashed potatoes and cream corn and it was very delicious. I am walking out the door with a big smile on my face and a belly full of delicious food."

"Party of 10 tonight. Our waiter John was the best! The guy cutting the prime rib tonight was a little off! All the pieces were so different in size! Some huge and thick and some were really sliced thin. But regardless the food is always good and we had a great table right next to the fireplace."

"It was well over 20 years since I had been to the HOPR. after all these years this place did not disappoint. The prime rib was phenomenal as were the drinks. The food is well portioned and each meal includes salad, choice of potato and creamed spinach or creamed corn. The dessert menu was excellent also. We will sure be back but this time it won't ta..."

"I really liked House of Prime Rib my first visit and loved the place on my second visit (after having learned from my first experience). HOPR is a classic SF establishment, having been there for ~70 years! Service is friendly, ambiance is great and energetic, and the food and value are excellent. After my first visit, I learned you can get seconds (i.e. anot..." Read more

"After 26 years of marriage we were FINALLY able to grab a reservation somewhat in close proximity to our anniversary ( Valentine's Day & I made our reservation 6 months in advance)finding the restaurant was difficult with all the street construction going on and once we checked in for our reservation we had quite a wait for our table. My husband and I both o..." Read more

"If you love prime rib, this is the place for you! Each cut of prime rib is cut to your preference and comes with a salad. I suggest ordering one of their delicious sides to accompany your prime rib. We enjoyed the mouth-watering creamed spinach and the loaded baked potato. Service is exceptional, every detail is thought of in advance. The only draw back..." Read more
