More information on Prime Rib (The)

Philly swarms with jumbo-chain steakhouses, but this one rules them all. Sure, there are Prime Ribs in D.C. and Baltimore, but do they have a sunken dining room with black lacquered walls? Leopard-print carpeting and a showpiece piano bar? Okay, so The Prime Rib may not be unique, but it is old-school -- in the best possible way -- with indulgent creamed spinach, an oversize shrimp cocktail, and six preparations of potato. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
