"A classic of SF -- you have to come to House of Prime Rib at least once to experience the food and coziness of the restaurant. As others have highlighted, reservations are highly recommended for your visit. Reservations always go quickly, either late dinner times being what's leftover. I've also noticed it's easier to get reservations for larger part..." Read more

"I am so glad I got a chance to go back after 8 years! It's as good as I remember.
The portions, price, and quality is all so good. When you go, be sure to ask for all the sides. The creamed spinach and corn are sooo flavorful. I enjoyed the loaded mashed potatoes too!

Can't wait to get a chance to be back."

"This place is a whole experience. We got here right at opening and put our name down for a table and at the bar. Ordered a drink while waiting for a seat which took around an hour. We got a lemon drop and a green apple martini. They were sweet and strong. We sat at the bar and it was great. The bartender was our server and he was attentive and helpful. The c..." Read more

"Yum! Yes yes yes! We have been here 3 times with different groups and everyone has loved it. The ambience is cozy (but full), the food was tasty, and the waiter was kind. I definitely prefer the prime rib seared here, but wow everything is yum."

"***Late post**. We came here in November to celebrate mini me's birthday with her boyfriend, daughter, hubby and I.  It has been a long time since I had been here last and it has not changed at all for the better. I decided to try the HOPR cut and while it was good I rather prefer a thinner cut. It was quite a busy night as usual and the service was great. O..." Read more

"FOODThe steak here was delicious! The prime rib was tender, juicy, and flavorful. It was cooked just how I wanted it. The sides were also very delicious, complementing the steak. But overall, the prime rib is the main course of my meal. I highly recommend this restaurant for others who want a high quality steak dinner. SERVICEThe service was..." Read more

"House of Prime Rib is a legendary establishment in the city. If you want to feel like you're eating a really good cut of meat, this is thee place to come to. This place requires a reservation months in advance, so you definitely need to get those reservations up and ready. The interior is just intimate and cozy, which makes it a perfect day for a date night..." Read more

"Thoroughly enjoyed our experience! The prime rib was fantastic (King Henry Cut), creamed spinach was out of this world and salad different than you'd expect but very good. Cocktails were good and pricing reasonable for what all you get.

Get there early to find seating at the bar if you're not on the reservation list."

"I had this 7:30 reservation for 2 for almost 9 months! Of course you can snag a reservation for way less time, but more than likely it'll be an odd time like 9pm. I came here with my partner and I immediately informed our server I had a gluten allergy. The way he looked out for me the entire time was extraordinary. He knew exactly what I couldn't have and ap..." Read more

"When people raved about this place I had my doubts but I doubt no more. House of Prime Rib honors its namesake with some delicious prime rib! You've gotta love meat to truly appreciate this place because they do it so well. Very similar to the Lawry's family of restaurants this place is on par with the quality you would find there. Just delicious!FOO..." Read more

"Prime rib executed as it should. There is nothing experimental here, it is purely a great prime rib. The service experience was great, I thoroughly enjoyed the server's care throughout the meal. The spot is a bit loud but it's fine, just come here for the meat. I would come back again, the roasted flavors of the meat is definitely worth the while."

"This stands out as one of the best restaurants I've been to in San Francisco. This is a meat eater's dream spot. True to their name, prime rib is basically the only thing on their menu and they do it really well. Get ready to wait a long time (2+ hours) if you don't have a reservation. And to get a reservation, you'll have to plan months in advance.A..." Read more

"I'm rewriting my review from a past visit because apparently the restaurant had flagged it and is trying to silence me from expressing my horrible experience. My husband and I had an unfortunate time dining at the House of Prime Rib. The food is extremely mediocre and every person gets the same dish. This is very boring and unfulfilling , however,  m..."

"I remember the last time I visited HOPR was probably when I was a kid. And when I mean by kid, I mean under 10 yrs old. So, honestly, I don't have much memories of taste of food quality. Coming back after 20 yrs basically just refreshes my memory. Booked a table for 4:30 on Open Table. Happened to find a meter parking 1 block away form the restaurant..." Read more

I've been here a few times and the experience never disappoints.To start, reservations are pretty tough to come by. In the few times I have been, most have been really early dinners or later ones.

"We arrived to a very busy restaurant, which I was told is quite typical of this place. So I'm glad we didn't try to come without a reservation, because I'm not sure we would have been seated due to how popular it is. I immediately noticed all of the light, garland and holiday decor. It was beautifully decorated for Christmas, which added to the already nice..." Read more
