Lawry's Prime Rib

We took advantage of dineLa this week. I asked Zohreh and Sugar if they were interested in participating, and they were both game.  Despite the traffic, we arrived shortly before 5 p.m.; of course, we allowed an hour and a half for the drive.

We tried their Seafood Tower. I was so excited to see this beautiful tower and ecstatic when I saw the oysters I had been craving. Sugar remarked that everything tasted so fresh like it had just been harvested. Lucky for Sugar and me, Zohreh does not care for oysters, so we did double duty in consuming her portion. Before it arrived, we enjoyed the warm bread and butter.

We all had the Spinning Salad, which is always refreshing. I once tried to replicate making it complete with the stainless steel bowl, their dressing, and a chilled fork, but it was not the same. I didn't have the flair the employees have. 

I ordered the California-cut Prime Rib with the most delicious Creamed Corn. Sugar opted for the Ribeye. The Yorkshire Pudding did a terrific job of absorbing the au jus! Zohreh had the Salmon, as she is not as carnivorous as Sugar and me. The Lobster Tail included was succulent as ever!

Our server, Clara, was very attentive and came to see how everything was, including Mr. Aniel Chopra, the general manager who has worked there ever since I can remember. He is one of those who indeed ensures service and food quality are up to par.

We have not had the See's Candies Sundae before. We shared the vanilla soft-serve ice cream with the famous C.C. Brown's hot fudge. The best part was the addition of choices of toppings: See's Candies toffee-ettes, peanut brittle, milk chocolate molasses chips.

I would be remiss if I didn't mention their house wine, Cabernet, which is reasonably priced from Rutherford. Hence, we had two bottles!

Lawry's is such an experience. I love the elegance, the food, and the top-notch service. This is something you hardly get anymore.

Lawry's is located at 100 N. La Cienega in Beverly Hills, California.
