And always make sure to leave room for their many desserts. House of Prime Rib and very good service from the friendly waiters. We could not help feeling that we were being pushed along quickly like cattle car along with little time to savor the gluttony.

The Yorkshire pudding arrives in a cast iron pan before it’s cut into fours and added to our plates. It has a golden brown crust and fluffy insides that are perfect for soaking up the au jus, which is both on the meat and in a little silver gravy boat. Overlooking the iconic San Francisco Bay, House of Prime Rib stands as a gourmet symbol of the city. This restaurant radiates a classic style, merging old school elegance with a modern approach to dining.
Ikea’s new food hall just opened. Is it any good?
The packed, buzzing dining room. Chefs in toques wheeling around shiny steel zeppelins, carving meat tableside. Fresh Cream of Horseradish Sauce in three different strengths! The spiciest hit the spot for us.
Menu / Cocktails

Beautiful wine cellar and an extensive wine list with high markup, bottles from $30, $25 corkage, glasses from $6. Check out the autographed 49er’s helmet in there. House of Prime Rib Children’s menu is available with a very low cost meal ($16.85) that includes a drink and dessert. Our last visit was in Summer of 2023.
Restaurant Summary
Just select desired cut size from the thin English cut to the beefy Henry VIII cut. This restaurant is popular, we had to book many weeks in advance. The handle upwards of 600 diners a night. It took multiple alerts on different days via Opentable to score a reservation.
Coordination is on exhibit at all times. King Cut is the best way to go. The horseradish sauces are the perfect compliment. The table made salads bring a touch of the old world classic steak house feel. Creamed spinach is great as well.

Then he spins the salad, tossing all the while. It’s a weird combination, but delicious enough that we finish every bite. Apple Crisp ($10.50) is steakhouse size. Piping hot, topped with vanilla ice cream.

HOPR is the sort of over-the-top calorie splurge you tend to have once a year, and I—like Keanu—especially love this restaurant during the holiday season. The shiny red and gold ornaments. The pine green wreaths everywhere. I don’t celebrate Christmas, but the dining room during December at HOPR sure makes me wish I did.
Best prime rib! The sides are delicious as well. Loved it can't wait to go back.
We get a corner booth in the back, lined with red leather seats and framed with magnums of wine. Our cocktails arrive and are shaken table-side, then poured in chilled martini glasses. Each drink is about two-and-a-half pours, so our shakers stay on the table, allowing us to have more as needed. Then comes a warm, fresh loaf of sourdough bread with salted butter. There’s a huge amount of food after this, but a bite (or five) is definitely a must. It is all about the beef, in different sizes from the small City cut to the extra large Henry VIII.
Lots of noise, carts and waiters all over. It’s no secret that if you’re somehow still hungry, you can order seconds, and chefs will carve you off an additional small slice of meat. After discovering this, I would always ask for a slice of the end cut, which is a salty, crispy, well-done piece from the end of the rib. Every single time, dining at the House of Prime Rib, the iconic meat mecca on Van Ness Avenue, is such a joy.

They have this restaurant’s operation down to a science. If you are looking for prime rib, House of Prime Rib is a must visit. House of Prime Rib opened in 1949 and concentrates on one dish, Prime rib. We have been coming here for many decades, whenever we have a desire for beef. They use corn-fed Prime beef Midwestern beef that is aged for 21 days and cooked in coarse rock salt.
In addition to the main attraction, the establishment offers a great variety of sumptuous sides. The creamed spinach whispers of delicious simplicity, while the Yorkshire pudding embodies textures that are both crisp and spongy. The baked potatoes, loaded with an assortment of toppings, serve as a delightful companion to the prime rib. Another crowd-favorite is the restaurant's well-curated wine list, which includes some of the most exquisite Californian and international selection.
