"No San Francisco carnivore has truly lived before eating a juicy slice of prime rib off the cart in this ‘50s throwback, where the cocktails come with their own shakers, the salad is spun tableside, and the baked potatoes are always at least 50 percent sour cream. Open since 1949, the House of Prime Rib stretches across five rooms and 148 seats, and serves more than 500 diners a night." - Paolo Bicchieri
