Lawry's is a true Los Angeles Icon and remains one of the best places around for prime rib. The food is consistently good and the decor is timeless. Going to Lawry's is always like a little trip back in time. Lawry's prices have crept up quite a bit in the last few years while portions seem to have gotten smaller (never a great combination.) The Lawry's ("house") cut of prime rib is now over $30.00. This cut is supposed to be 12-14 oz. but always seems to come out on the smaller side. They are also less generous with the sides than they used to be. However, by Beverly Hills standards Lawry's still remains a reasonably good value and is always a solid choice for a good meal.
Pros: Dependable, high quality food, good service
Cons: Value has erroded over the years
