The key lime pie is the BOMB! The steak was awesome also! I love this place and everything about it. By the way, I ate off the Restaurant Week menu.

My husband and I were still fuming about this restaurant! The Prime Rib was recommended to us so we thought we would try it. It was beyond a disaster! Apparently, this restaurant thinks that if you are served a slab of meat the size of your head then all is well. But we think that the experience is just as, or more, important than a big hunk of meat. The prime rib was served on a small plate with absolutely no condiments- no horseradish, no steak sauce, nothing! Not even a steak knife until we asked for it! A potato was an additional $8 after paying $45 for the meat. The vegtable plate was about $24 and consisted of 3 small portions of vegtables with an unsightly large tomato thrown inthe middle. Pass on this one!

I was here during restaurant week with a bunch o friends. The food was alright considering we only had a limited selection to pick from... The price, on the other hand, not alright. Thankfully, we got the restaurant week deal cuz otherwise we woulda had to go out on the streets to panhandle to foot the bill.

It was a bit dark so I could be a lil off the mark when I say this but the interior decoration was just a smidgen antiquated... it reminded me of the late 80s actually with mirrors and black glass everywhere...

On the plus side, there was a live pianist and my company was great.

While I'm not usually a carnivore, I do love Prime Rib done right.  So I try to make it to The Prime Rib at least once a  year for my birthday dinner.  Great meat.  Fine sides.  Attentive, but not over-bearing, service.  Love the atmosphere with the live piano music.

Our visit was wonderful.  The escargot was the best ever, and the prime rib was exquisite.  The service was impeccable.  I cannot wait to return.

For some reason this location is not as good as the one in DC.
Been here twice and while the service is good, the prime rib is so-so at best. I don't eat a lot of prime rib, but once in a while I have a taste for it and the pieces I've had here with both fatty and not real tasty. I always ask for an end cut when I make the reservation and when I get there they never have it. Not sure why they say they will not my request and then never make good on it.
Sides are usually good, although the home fries last time were a bit greasy.
They do pour a good drink and the wines by the glass are fairly priced.
They used to require men to wear jackets, but now you can go in looking like a bum. Guess the recession has gotten restaurants to take the money and if people look like they just came from a game of flag football who cares.
Last time I was in DC that restaurant still required jackets, and the food was better.

While everything was delicious, I was actually a little disappointed in the prime rib itself. Although huge including the bone (and lots of fat) it wasn't nearly as flavorful as I'd expect from a restaurant of the same name. Perhaps if it had been served with more au jus or horseradish, the flavor would have been enhanced. As it was, it was merely a very good, albeit expensive (44.95), hunk of beef.
