The Prime Rib

Always a treat.

We celebrated my Dad's 90 birthday and it was a wonderful evening. The staff was so attentive to our needs and the food was exceptional as it has been for the past 40 years. Still our favorite restaurant in the city.

Great food, prime rib, filet, and pepper sirloin were all fabulous. The service was fantastic.

Food was disappointing for a restaurant that expensive. It is not on par with The Capital Grill, Morton's or The Palm. At least this time that we went.

The dinner was good. We were seated immediately upon arrival! Excellent customer service as well

It was an amazing romantic dinner, everything was amazing although my steak tasted more like a burger than an actual steak. But still quite amazing.

Absolutely the best! I would highly recommend The Prime Rib for ANY occasion. The service is FIRST RATE. The food, unmatched by any. And, during these COVID times, The Prime Rib provides an extremely safe dining experience.

As always, PERFECT !!!! Except for not having my favorite corn...lol, everything was totally on point and of course I will be back again in a few months. You guys are the best. See you soon and please have my corn...lol

Hands down the best restaurant in DC. Impeccable service

I loved my experience there !

I was raised by parents who knew all the best things about Manhattan. The Prime Rib is a perfect facsimile of the best of the best city in the world. A wonderful peacefulness fills my being as soon as I enter the doorway. That elegant ambiance of the 40's envelops me and I feel the classy joys of that time with my parents. Not only is the service and food exceptional, so is the music. I was disappointed that the fabulous pianist was not performing last Saturday. I long for his return. If I could go only one time a year to a restaurant, I would go to The Prime Rib. In the immortal words of Cole Porter.."It's the tops!"

Beautiful restaurant and ambiance, but the food was just ok. Nothing to really write home about. My pecan pie was a little burnt.

Service was a little slow but allowed us to enjoy a very pleasant evening.

Great experience but patrons are starting to dress down more than they used to. Hunting vest should not be acceptable as a sport coat. The food service is great as always.

Fantastic like always !

They took great COVID precautions and we felt very safe .

Each course was better than expected. the dog salad was amazing and my wife said the crab cake was one of the best she ever had. The service was fantastic.

Perfect service at this DC institution. And they do social distancing exactly the right way; why in the world these restaurants are being forced to close is beyond me.

Great place for steaks. With the old school steak house fell.

We celebrated our birthdays which are 4 days apart. Impeccable service, and dinner was fantastic. Thank you!

The host was so welcoming and nice. The waiters were amazing. Excellent service. The food was great!

Always a great experience on all fronts - the ambiance, the service and the food. Nothing better than how this place puts us in the mood for a great meal and always delivers!

Was an excellent experience- was greeted very nicely by host- asked us about our anniversary- tables were separated so plenty of privacy. Cant have a drink at the bar due to the obvious but the drinks had the best presentation- we weren’t in a hurry and they didn’t make us feel rushed. The limited menu still has a lot of delicious choices- we really enjoyed our evening and dinner there- was sort of surprised that the prices were very reasonable.
The boss (wife) wants to make it regular spot for a nice night out.

The service was underwhelming for a $$$$ restaurant.

Perfect service and great food! Timeless!

I noticed the dress code has changed, sad to see people in Tennis shoes!

Tremendous as always

Excellent food and service! Highly recommend! My favorite restaurant in DC!

Our prime ribs and sides (creamed spinach, potatoes au gratin, macaroni and cheese) were outstanding! The service was also excellent. A wonderful night out that made of feel "normal" during these difficult times.

great once again from all phases, however the Trout dish was removed, hope to bring back soon1

This place never fails to deliver despite the pandemic. We were one of two couples on our evening.

Great service Great food My wife took me for my birthday and I could not have asked for a better dinner

Best place in DC for prime rib. My wife loves the clams casino.

outstanding, staff was great, very professional! The dinner was amazing, I'm telling all my friends about the excellent experience!

The Prime Rib is constant in it's high level of service, ambience and quality of food. I highly recommend this restaurant!

My only issue was there was a couple sitting close to my table taking photos, this made me uncomfortable!

Always fabulous

The Prime Rib is one of DC’s closely-guarded secrets, tucked behind a graceful sidewalk canopy and hidden behind festoons of creamy shirred taffeta toward the quieter, Georgetown end of K Street NW.

American classic cuisine is perfectly prepared in a polished and swanky atmosphere, accompanied by black tie’d musical stylings at the grand piano in the center of the room, and served by adept and skillful waiters shimmering silently across the utterly chic leopard print carpeting.

Larry your mâitre d’ is attentive to your every need, welcoming you by seating you at your favorite table, without you needing to ask. Insiders are treated to bits of wisdom and humor imparted quietly between courses, and every guest is awash with warm wishes of their good health and speedy return when they depart.

Behind the u-shaped leather-padded bar, Fitzy swizzles up the best and latest in spirited cocktails. Though your table is always ready when you arrive, the cognoscenti frequently turn left into Fitzy’s domain before sitting down for an in-person mixology demonstration. Coldest martinis this side of the North Pole, and a Negroni to knock your literal socks off.

Prime Rib is the eponymous house spécialitié, and this family-owned establishment’s delectably refined fîlets and chops put to shame DC’s “chain store steak houses”. But the discerning patron will ask their decorous waiter for items not listed on the menu, and which are not always available; such as Dover Sole and Lobster Santiago, named for a famed Prime Rib chef. If you’re lucky enough, have both like I did on Friday.

Other favorites; crab cakes packed with fresh crab and little else, savory lobster bisque, Buzz’s salad (just ask), the rack of lamb, Chilean sea bass , chicken piccata, the Brussels sprouts, broccolini, haricots vert, bread pudding, and pecan pie à la mode.

The Prime Rib is like champagne; delicious, urbane, and not just for special occasions. Treat yourself!

Outstanding Outstanding Outstanding. Great environment, incredible food, and magnificent service. The experience was one of the best I have had a five-star restaurant. The wait staff was professional, entertaining, and knowledgable providing excellent customer service and a friendly smile to top it off. Thank you for the outstanding experience.

No other restaurant in the city compares. Attentive and welcoming staff, incredible food and gorgeous decor. The best place in the city for a proper evening out.
