I ordered the "Rodeo" Prime Rib Cut ($42.95 - 16oz - Medium Rare). It's perhaps one of the best Prime Ribs that I'd ever eaten. With each bite, happiness pummeled hard into me. Its tender meat is thick; its fat drips easily apart; and its aftertaste is simply clean, savory beef. I bit into juicy perfection.
Primarily Prime Rib (located in the South Point Casino) offers absurdly delicious Prime Rib with very competitive prices. In addition, it's very easy to book reservations; there were many open time slots when booking for the following day. I visited Primarily Prime Rib (Las Vegas) on a Saturday (around 6:20PM).
Staff is very professional, efficient, and hardworking. Although they lack that well-rehearsed & graceful charm, staff shows an appealing scrappiness and eagerness to serve & perform well.
Our Server's Assistant (Yaima) is attentive, diligent, and helpful. Yaima quickly filled our drinks & assisted whenever possible. Our primary Server (Charles) is also focused, diligent, and quick. Charles gave wonderful recommendations; Charles moved quickly; and Charles was curt and professional. I especially loved how Charles left a complimentary chocolate mint when our dinner had concluded.
I ordered the "Rodeo Cut" ($42.95) and Pink Lemonade ($4.45). With the "Rodeo Cut," I selected the Cup of Soup (Chicken Cacciatore Soup) and Mashed Potatoes.
My beverage arrived quickly. The complimentary bread and butter also arrived quickly. The soup arrived in six minutes and seven seconds. The Prime Rib (16oz - Medium Rare) & Mashed Potatoes arrived within 22 minutes and 50 seconds. Our server (Charles) also provided fresh & creamy horseradish. Quick service!
As mentioned prior, the food is phenomenal. Honestly, I'd been skeptical since the prices were competitive, yet I'm utterly amazed how it did not negatively impact the food's upscale quality. The weakest part of the meal was the dry complimentary bread, but that's easily avoided with slathering butter.
The Cup of Soup (Chicken Cacciatore Soup) arrived hot with diced vegetables and chicken. It's very flavorful and cooked very well. Its vegetables had a lovely soft texture; the chicken is tender and tasty; and its sliced mushrooms are plump. I especially appreciated how this soup tasted freshly prepared; it deftly avoids that canned saltiness. The Mashed Potatoes also arrived hot, thick, and delicious; it tasted like freshly mashed tender potatoes. Most importantly, the "Rodeo Cut" Prime Rib is generously sliced and humongous. Every bite felt satisfying. The Prime Rib is juicy, and it breaks firmly apart as your teeth effortlessly slice through it. It's quality meat that's cooked thoughtfully and passionately. Bravo to the chefs! Bravo!!!
Concerning ambiance, Primarily Prime Rib feels dated. The floors, walls, and decor are very busy; its colors remind me of a salesman that's wearing a bright red suit and khaki pants. Despite that, Primarily Prime Rib is very clean, well-ventilated, and comfortable. The interior felt very fresh and well-maintained. Primarily Prime Rib appears clunky as staff uses wheeled-carts to move around food, materials, or dirty dishes; however, Primarily Prime Rib functions efficiently and smoothly.
Regarding volume level, the main sounds were the many customers' chatter. There's some very faint instrumental/jazz music, but it's almost inaudible. Thankfully, the location is not echoey, so the chatter doesn't detract from the dining experience. In addition, the dress code ranges from casual (ex: people wearing baseball caps, t-shirt, and Hawaiian shirts) to business casual. Mostly, I saw happy customers (from all parts of life) feasting on large plates of Prime Rib.
Overall, Primarily Prime Rib (located in the South Point Casino) has quickly become my must-visit location whenever traveling to Las Vegas. The prices are very affordable; the staff is very hardworking; and the food is memorable & satisfying. I absolutely adore Prime Rib, and I will happily admit that this location offers one of the best.
5 out of 5. GO!!!
