-Once you receive the second serving, you cannot ask for it to be packed up to go.
-If you like wasabi, ask the waiter/waitress for STRAIGHT horseradish.
-The English Cut is my fav, it's the easiest to eat.
-You will be offered either the corn or the spinach. For a bit more, you can try both.
-The salad dressing, which is a Sherry Vinaigrette, is available for sale by the bottle. Be forwarned, the bottles need to be refrigerated and do not have expiration dates.
-If you like House of Prime Rib, you may also enjoy Broadway Prime, which from my understanding was started by former cooks of the HoPR.
-You may find yourself doing a couple figure 8s through the neighborhoods looking for parking, as you are going against other meathouses which are not that far away as well as locals. Save yourself the trouble and valet it....
DAMN did you go last night

Ben777 - Broadway Prime has gone DOWNHILL!

broadway prime isnt as good as it was... was there a few weeks ago, but Harris, which is a few blocks down from House of Prime Rib is possibly better, and if you're ordering the same as you would at HoPR it costs about the same as well, plus they have a full menu with other options and appetizers as well.
