Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Open since 1949, this legendary destination is the king of San Francisco steakhouses. From luxurious carved-to-order prime rib rolled out on carts to chefs spinning salads to extra-large martinis with sidecars, every meal in the restaurant’s old-school dining room decked with ruby-hued booths is rollicking and unforgettable.

                              It was a guys night out when we went to HORP with my two good friends. We were an hour early. We hung out at the bar and we were seated about 20 minutes before our actual reservation time. They seated us at a 4 person table which was good with extra room. Food came quick and the prime ribs were good as always. Service was excellent.

                              Prime rib was excellent as usual. Great price on wine selected. Only thing was portion of creamed spinach seemed noticeably reduced.

                              It’s always a treat dining here. One of my friends have not been here for a couple of years and he says, the food was as good as the first time he ate there. Consistent all throughout. We had a last minute change the day prior from originally reservation for 5 but increased to 10 people and they were able to accommodate us.
