First. sit at the bar and not a table. Make sure Lynn is bartending! Tell her you want to start with a Brent's Old Fashioned! You're already off to a good start. The games play on tvs at the bar, the conversation can be lively, and you get all good things without a stuffy feel. Here's the secret...they do a $35.00 3-course offering all year round. You just have to ask for it. Now, the portions are soo large you can share everything. Mel says the French Onion soup is the best in the city. I usually go for the oysters. I figure, when in Rome...so dinner is usually Prime Rib, which is always perfect. It's at least a 15-ounce cut which means left overs the next day. Mel has had salmon, crab imperial, and other dishes with very good things to say about all of them. I've had potatoes a few different ways and they are always very basic, but always done very well. The veg is always super fresh. Try the corn off the cob. I can't get over how good corn can be in November. The wine list can be a little pricey so have one glass, but splurge on something nice. You'll be happy you did. The desserts are awesome. In fact I have a slice of Key Lime pie in the fridge for dessert tonight. Did I mention that the portions are so large you are bringing home leftovers? Don't blow off The Prime Rib as too expensive and stuffy. Try it the way I suggest and you'll be stuffed, happy, and maybe have a few dollars left in your wallet!
by tiana g. on I've only been here when its a "club" so no review on the food. On a friday and sat night this place is packed...plus only place i know where i can dance on the bar.
by Sharolyn Ahle on Maybe I'm getting old, but this spot is so NOT classy. There's a lot across the street that's like $20. You can risk parking your car on the street, but this spot is in the Tenderloin, so you never know what you'll encounter. You'll stand in line for forever. When you get in, too many people. Go-go girls dancing on platforms. Drinks are alright. There's a lil' VIP area in the middle of the upstairs area...downstairs gets way packed and annoying. Totally not worth the cover and dressing up.
