The prime rib options at 801 Chophouse, like the 801 Cut Bone In Prime Rib, are absolutely superb. “Hands down the best prime rib I’ve ever had (ordered the single cut),” one diner shared. “As prime rib is one of my things, I’ve tried many. Super thick, and a beautiful darker tone of pink/red than typical. Great flavor. The weight is not advertised, but well over a pound and the ‘middle’ (leaner part) was huge.”
