Prime rib carved tableside (House of Prime Rib) · San Francisco
Salt-crusted prime rib roast wheeled to the table on a silver cart and carved to order, served with creamed spinach, Yorkshire pudding and a spun-tableside salad. The SF mid-century steakhouse rite.
House of Prime Rib opened on Van Ness Avenue in 1949 and has served only prime rib continuously since. The salt-crusted dry-roast method, the silver carving carts, the wedge salad spun at the table, the popovers, all are the same as the 1949 menu. Where most American steakhouses moved to a la carte cuts, House of Prime Rib stayed single-dish; it is the city's defining steakhouse experience and the one SF dining tradition no other city replicates.
