Best dining experience I’ve had in SF bar none. Highlights include the duck liver mousse with financiers which somehow taste like pancakes and maple syrup in the best possible way. The titular state bird is great. The smoked trout dip is a classic for a reason. The ricotta sauerkraut pancake was excellent and reminded me of an uthapam Altogether a fabulous experience and would return!

It was amazing! We sat at the bar for drink before our reservation and ended up staying there for our meal. Alden gave us great service and was very attentive. We were there for my husbands birthday and they definitely helped us have a celebratory night! The clam chowder was to die for (and that means a lot since I don’t usually eat anything from the ocean). And the fried chicken was out of this world! I don’t think I’ve ever had chicken melt in my mouth! Crispy Brussels we’re perfect too! We will always come back when we’re in town! 10/10!

Fabulous meal guided by friendly and knowledgeable server. Had the oysters on the 1/2 shell, bread, and the whole roasted fish. Each dish was fresh and delicious with special touches in well balanced sauces that highlighted the dish.

    We were very happy with everything. The staff was outstanding and David, our main waiter was awesome! We plan to book another meal in the future.

    ​If I could give House of Prime Rib 10 stars, I would! From the second you step through the door, the atmosphere is absolutely electric—there’s a buzzy, classic vibe that you just can't find anywhere else. ​As for the food? Hands down, the best prime rib I’ve ever had in my life. Unbelievably tender, cooked to absolute perfection, and carved right at the table with all the incredible traditional sides. The entire dining experience was top-tier from start to finish. ​If you're thinking about going, don't wait. An unforgettable meal! 🥩✨
