After assessing restaurants throughout the country, our Tasting Table writer found that one New York City institution is the go-to destination for prime rib.

I took it home and ate twice more today with the left overs for lunch and dinner.&#8221; The generous portion will take $89 out of your wallet, but this is the kind of order that can satisfy several diners. However, you will have to pay extra for portions\u00a0of potatoes and sides to\u00a0round out the meal. But customers definitely seem to think it&#8217;s worth it. People consistently describe the prime rib as one of the best in the city.\u00a0&#8220;Literally everything at Keens is excellent.
