I am completely enamored with everything about The Prime Rib. One walk up the steps into the dining room that is adorned with leopard print carpet and a live piano player, I knew that I was in a place I would enjoy.We opted to sit at the bar, and Dan and Austin took care of us. At around 6:30 on a Sunday this bar was absolutely popping. Thankfully, a large party at the bar had a table resi so we snagged seats in the corner of the bar and began a lovely journey of martinis, carbs and of course prime rib.We started with the house salad which was great. We also split what I heard was one of their most popular dishes - a potato skin basket. I am unsure how I lived 36 years of life without ever experiencing such a thing. Who doesn't want perfectly crispy potatoes to be topped with horseradish and sour cream? It was DIVINE.On to the main - we opted to split the prime rib. It's a hefty 14 oz portion so you definitely want to share. There are a variety of sauces you can have with your entrees here, and we opted for bernaise. It also comes with horseradish. For sides, we got the creamed spinach and mashed potatoes. Life hack, save a potato skin and top it with creamed spinach. The great Anna S showed me this hack, and I am here to say this woman knows what's up.In terms of drinks, I of course had to order a dirty martini. This is a classic steakhouse dirty. It is filled to the brim, so much so they don't even add the olives into the drink until you take a few sips. The olives are hand stuffed with blue cheese and a wonderful salty addition to the briny martini of your dreams.This place is a total vibe. The bar has its own menu as well featuring sandwiches and a burger so I feel there is something to enjoy for every price point and craving here.Loved my experience, and especially loved knowing this has been family-owned and operated restaurant in Baltimore since 1965! A great steakhouse, good hospitality, and martinis truly never go out of style.

Very expensive, very old school - basically to the point that the vast majority of the clientele is carrying AARP cards. I tried the prime rib - medium rare - as they're named after it. As is often the case with steak houses, they went light on seasoning. Unlike other steak houses (like Bones in Atlanta), I didn't find the sides to be particularly well cooked. Au Gratin potatoes, asparagus. I also had a bite of the "chopped steak" - which is basically just a high end hamburger with no bun. Pretty unimpressed, overall, and I have no intent to go back as there wasn't a single standout dish that made me think they had a higher ceiling. Rounding down a star because of *just* expensive this place is. It was $250 or so for two people. I will say I wish I'd ordered the NY strip - maybe given them a slightly better shot at delivering something that actually qualifies as steak.The service was predictably attentive. They don't get a bonus for that, though, because if you're paying even half these prices that should be a given.Interior: wood, live piano, white tablecloths. I doubt the place has changed since the late 1970s, or whenever it was they opened.

Wonderful experience to celebrate a birthday. The cocktails are strong and delicious. My gin martini was shaken well and came with 3 delicious blue cheese stuffed olives as requested. We ordered two large steaks to share for 5 people. 1 appetizer, 3 side dishes, including lobster mac and cheese. Ended the evening with 3 desserts including a giant icecream sundae. The service was smooth. There's mostly business diners here. We brought out two children (10 year old or so) and they were the only children we saw this Friday evening. Love the piano playing in the background. Paid Valet parking offered - bring cash for valet and tip. Had to go up a narrow flight of stairs from the valet garage.

My first time at The Prime Rib! This place is a Baltimore institution known for its topnotch service, classy interior, and incredible seafood and steak. We got so much food on this particular evening as it was an early Christmas celebration for us. Here's what we ordered...- The potato skins: A must order! They are famous for a reason. Incredibly crispy and come with sour cream and horseradish on the side. - The house salad: Also a classic item. I wasn't a huge fan of the egg chopped throughout the salad but the flavor was cut well with the pepperoncini. - The clams casino: It more bacon than it is clams but still yummy. - The shrimp cocktail: Giaaaant shrimp! SO worth the price. - The New York Strip au poivre: A yummy piece of steak coated in coarse black pepper. - Side of mashed potatoes and creamed spinach: I'm normally not a fan of creamed spinach but when it was combined with the steak and mashed potatoes it was incredible. - The strawberry cheesecake: soooooo freakin' amazing. Definitely more cheese than cake. I also want to note that the dirty martini is one of the best I've ever had. It was made a little less dirty than I'm used to with the stuffed olives on the side because they fill the glass to the brim to the point where there's no room for a garnish. Once I sipped it a bit and threw the olives in, the martini transformed into an extra extra dirty martini that was just what I wanted. Bravo to the bartender for knowing exactly how to make this fickle drink and not overcompensating with the salt!Don't forget to try their famous piney too! It's a delicious pineapple vodka concoction that is so good it's dangerous.

We finally had an opportunity to have dinner at the Prime Rib after living in Baltimore for more than two years. We had tickets to a performance at the symphony and decided to have dinner the Prime Rib before walking over to the Meyerhoff (the Prime Rib is conveniently located to a few theaters and halls, so it's a great pre-performance option). We started with the "Our Famous Greenberg Potato Skin Basket" - 4 perfect fried potato skins with horseradish sauce, which was a great starter. For my entree, I had the rack of lamb with mint jelly and amarena cherry mustard, which I really loved (perfectly cooked and well accompanied). My husband had the roast prime rib, and we shared the creamed spinach. Everything was good - but come hungry - these portions are serious! All our drinks were good as well - wine and cocktails!The service was great, and the restaurant does have ambiance (old school, and very traditional, but great ambiance)! Definitely a great spot for a fancy night out before a show! Keep it on your list and check it out!

Went here with my wife for Thanksgiving dinner. We were in Baltimore visiting family. Food was excellent. Service was attentive and very good. All of the staff were very nice. I would highly recommend for a nice night out on the town.

My favorite restaurant in Baltimore. Everything is 10/10. The staff is very friendly and provided impeccable service. It's a very upscale and elegant restaurant. The pianist played a few song as we dined. My filet was perfectly cooked. The creme brulee was so delicious, I ordered two of them!

I had an early date here (5:30pm) recently and we had a great time. The ambience of this spot is so comforting and the service cannot be beat; stunning. I was shocked to hear my waiter had been with the company for 50 years. He laughed and pointed to a peer who was on 51 years and pointed out a few other very old-timers. Wow! Needless to say, the staff is amazing and they know what's what in the entire place. But I'd be remiss to leave out the food. I went with the prime rib. I was hesitant because it's a steakhouse, but was not disappointed.

We trusted Prime Rib with our 10 year anniversary dinner. That trust was well placed. Service was impeccable the whole night through. We started with drinks at the bar; my wife got an excellent aviation. I got a rye old fashioned. Both were excellent. We settled into our table with live jazz and the seafood sampler. Amazing prawns and oysters and crab. Excellent all around.We then transitioned to streaks (filet and ny strip) with brussels and lobster Mac as our sides. Everything was superb. It was excellent in the way that you almost don't understand what you need or want but the service provides exactly what was right. The seafood and meat was perfection, accompanied by excellent parings of white and red wines.To top it off, a chocolate dessert and appreciation from the staff and manager. We could not have asked for a better ten year wedding anniversary. I will cherish the memory of this meal for years to come. Thank you, for making us special.Shout out to Sam, our excellent guide though the menu, and Mark, the manager who made sure that everything was exemplary. Prime Rib is an institution. Deservedly so. I'm so thankful for the experience and care on such a special occasion.
