Frommer's Review

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.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
