Great food and great service SOMETIMES. It depends on your waiter. Some waiters are very cool, they will give you an extra piece of prime rib without you even asking for it. Other waiters will pretty much just ignore you your entire stay there. I've always been asked if I wanted an extra slice but one waiter just stood in the back and chatted it up w/ another waitress. Pretty annoying.
None the less, great food, best prime rib in town.
- Pros: Great food
- Cons: Price goes up everytime I eat there
Yes!

This is one of our favorite restaurants in the city. Old-school charm, lush red leather banquettes, professional well-dressed waiters, a sweetheart of a maitre'd, and a great bar. The prime rib is succulent and done to a turn, just how you like it (they even offer yorkshire pudding, something you just can't find anymore)! Portions are large and the service is impeccable. We have our holiday dinner here with friends every year, and invariably everyone loves this place. It's expensive, but for special occasions you can't beat it.
Highly recommended.
- Pros: Delicious food; sumptuous atmosphere
- Cons: None--really

This place hasn't changed since 1949. Dark style steak house like mood. Old red seats, fix ens that make you say, I remember eating that when I was a steak houses 20 years ago. The creamed spinach, yum. Lots of bacon flavor, the mash with the extras yum, wine selection is reasonable with the more expensive topping off around $110. The star of the show is the prime rib. Melt in your mouth goodness. Dinner for 4 was a bit over $300. A bit expensive but I guess for SFO not too bad. I'm impressed they don't serve french frys, even for kids.
Enjoy!
- Pros: Prime Rib in a classic environment
- Cons: Do the valet. Shady part of town at night.

This place had a great prime rib but it appeared as if the staff was just a little to busy checking their cell phones to check to see if we needed any more wine. I wage much of my decision on the service being poor and not so much on quality of food.
best flavor of meat

very fine wine selection as well
- Pros: nice price too

Great San Francisco steak house. If you have visitors in town and want to treat them to something special this is your place. The wine list isn't bad either.
Was vegan... till last night. This PRIME RIB CHANGED MY LIFE!!
