Prime Rib is a contemporary fine dining restaurant, blending a historic steakhouse and cocktail lounge with distinctive twists. Highly personalized touches include a curated selection of steak knives presented to diners prior to entrees arriving and tableside cocktail creation based on guests’ preferences. White glove service without the white gloves... it’s hip - even a little provocative.

The vibe and energy from the lounge is fueled by live vocalists, while the bar and lounge serve crave-worthy cocktails that keeps guests returning to us time and time again.

    A Good Thanksgiving Option. Just Remind Them To Apply The OpenTable Deposit! Our Thanksgiving plans changed at the last minute and had to come up with a Plan B on short notice. I read in the Philadelphia Inquirer that Prime Rib was offering a Thanksgiving menu and we jumped. The two-top booth and chair were a little awkward, with the booth side considerably lower than the chair. My girlfriend joked that she needed a booster seat! We each had a dozen East Coast oysters for an appetizer and they were fine. The Thanksgiving entree was massive and tasty with plenty for leftovers. The cocktails were relatively small, but potent. The only issue came when the server took the $100 bill for her tip instead of for the tab. And the bill failed to list the $60 OpenTable reservation as a credit on the total. They corrected the OpenTable credit and we just let the server keep the $100 rather than embarrassing all of us by taking it back. All in all, for a last-minute Hail Mary on Thanksgiving, not bad.

    Waited almost an hour for their thanksgiving turkey dinner special to be served. When it came food was cold, string beans were barely cooked, turkey gravy was so thick it didn’t pour out. Staff and manager apologized several times for the wait and kept telling us food was on the way but it wasn’t. They knew we were not happy. We basically asked for food to be packed up when we got it. Check came without offering any credit. When I asked to speak to manager to ask why such a delay she stated it was busy and then offered to give credit which we declined because it should have been offered automatically before giving us the check. We made reservation for 4 people at 430 on purpose to avoid this scenario. The restaurant was not crowded at 430. We basically paid for leftovers.
