We had a large family dinner for Xmas day and only one waiter served us. The food was good but took awhile for the main dish to come out. Not sure why there are 3 persons at the greeting reception.

First time at San Mateo Prime; Very comfortable setting; What you'd expect, nice tables, tablecloths; Nice, well stocked bar;Prime rib, Avenue cut was very tasty;Only distraction was a large party with one very loud individual; Otherwise, great place for a meal; I understand there is also an upstairs dining area; Staff very attentive;I would definitely make a reservation when you go; Lots of foot traffic in downtown area; So I wouldn't take a chance, reserved a table in advance; They can seat large parties too!

I've been here for years.The food is usually decent, but this time, it's a bit underwhelming.Ordered the Filet Mignon, and it came out to be wayyy smaller than before (about the size of a tennis ball).It wasn't very good either.Splat some mashed potatoes and a handful of fries, and there goes a $65 meal. (See picture.)I also heard the rack of lamb this time wasn't great either.Perhaps management should do a taste test to make sure the food is up to par?Cuz this time, it tastes a bit like mediocre buffet food. ?

Always the perfect ambiance for any occasion. We are always greeted by the owner with such warm hospitality. The prime rib is never less than perfect for us. So deliciously tender and juicy. I'm getting hungry for San Mateo Prime just writing this review!!!Parking: Plenty of metered parking. I never have trouble fi ding parking.

Horrible. Flat out refused service an hour and 20 minutes before closing.When I first attempted to visit this restaurant their Google page said they closed at 10, so I made the trek over but apparently they are not open on mondays.I decided I would try again on a Saturday night. I checked online and it again said 10, but I called to verify their hours and ensure they still had crab dip on the menu. After calling they said they closed at 9. I recalled later that day just to check again (since I didn’t want to make the drive over if they were closing early) and they said they close at 9:30 but the kitchen closes at 9.I arrived at 8:10… an hour and 20 minutes before closing and upon entry asked if we could sit at the bar for drinks and apps. But the person at the front just looked at us and said “we don’t serve appetizers”. They didn’t offer us the bar or main entrees, just flat out refused service.It did look slow and I would have understood if they said it was slow and they were closing up early. But to call twice and drive all the way over for them to just say “they don’t serve appetizers” is abhorrent.Will never be back.

San Mateo Prime Ribs offers delicious and perfectly cooked prime ribs in a classic and elegant atmosphere.
Had dinner here today, my first time trying this place. Reservations are suggested. We were greeted by Simon, who was both the hostess and sever. We were seated promptly and placed our dinner order and drinks. Fresh hot bread and butter served is before our meals. The entree portion sizes were perfect, well worth the money. It was a quiet little spot downtown. I loved the loved ambiance and will definitely go back there again.

Was a enjoyable evening…. The service was very attentive and the food was good. Not a bad alternative to driving to the city and maybe having your car broken into.

We went to celebrate Mother's day with my family and the service and the food was amazing. Very friendly people and kids friendly that is a plus for me. For sure I will go back again.
They double charged tip. They charged a mandatory tip by default, then the check demands you tip once more, the based is post tax post first tip. Which means. 100 dollars food would be totally 153. 100*1.1*1.18*1.18
