Amazing food and service! Sophia took great care of us, she was very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious, we enjoyed the cheesesteak rolls and french onion soup to start, the prime rib and filet as entrees and the cowboy corn as a side. We really enjoyed every dish, look forward to going back!

Birthday dinner with friends. The restaurant and bar were empty with the exception of one additional group and stayed empty for our entire meal until another group entered as we were leaving. With it relatively empty, it was very quiet which was nice for conversation. The wait staff was professional and friendly. Despite what seemed like dining in a closed restaurant (and was peculiar) the food and service were very good to excellent. The seating was noticeably showing it's age which was also unusal for a high-end restaurant. Despite the two noted oddities, the meal was enjoyable and delicious!

Very nice steakhouse in a corner of Tysons--- on a Saturday night, it was quiet and an ideal setting for a pre-Capitol One Hall concert. Wedge salad was delicious, steak done as asked for. Plus small one scoop of ice cream was a perfect amount of dessert after a large meal!

I had the cheese steak appetizers which were very salty. I had the Blue Cheese Wedge salad. My food was mediocre at best. The salad was pretty uncreative, light on the bacon and blue cheese. My gluten-free friend had a difficult time even choosing much on the menu. We found that all the marked gluten-free dishes were fried in the same fryer as the gluten items, she would have been in bad shape if she had followed the menu. Luckily, our waiter was extremely vigilant and kept checking with the kitchen to see what she could have. The only stand out was the chocolate flourless cake, which was superb! As for ambiance, when we arrived one other couple was there, and when they left we were the only ones in the whole restaurant. It was very strange indeed. I won't be back and certainly can't recommend the restaurant to anyone.
Prime rib - horrible Smokey New York- horribly salty Whole restaurant smelled of cigarettes Upholstery ripped Waitress was great Fries - good Salad - good They don't have bread Decent wine list

Would visit again. The staff here are well dressed which helps with the atmosphere and are so friendly, including David, Diego and Sophie. Highly recommend the filet mignon which my server Sophie recommended and said was her favorite. It was tender and juicy, every bite was flavoured and temped to perfection. The chef came out and asked how my food was as well which was really awesome! While I couldn't eat another bite during my last visit, the key lime pie is my usual go to. Can't wait to visit again!Parking: There's a few spots on the street level, but the underground garage has plenty of spacesWheelchair accessibility: It's wheelchair accessible with an elevator from the garage

Celebrated anniversary ? with my wife here and it was wonderful. Waiters were very attentive, nice and superb. Food review: Spinach Artichoke was delicious. Wife loves the creamy flavor and smooth cheese blend. The best highlight of the menu was the “smokehouse prime rib” really big in size and delicious. So bold flavorful and not salty it was amazing and wife love prime rib. She said 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Double date night with friends. A bit of confusion with our reservation but wasn’t a big deal. Red roses for the ladies for post Valentine’s weekend was a nice touch. Our server Allison was great!!! She was enthusiastic and very helpful. We had an enjoyable evening out.

Second visit to American Prime and it once again didn't disappoint. Excellent food, outstanding service! Can not recommend the prime rib, filet mignon or ribeye strongly enough. Simply amazing!
We had eaten here before during the summer, so we sat outside. Unfortunately, this time we were seated inside. It is a very small room fairly crowded but what really was remarkable was the decor. The seat pads were in shambles, discolored, torn, and peeling, and it was hard to get past that for dinner. The steaks were good. We had the tomahawk the fillet, and the prime rib -very tasty. Unfortunately, the sides were horribly salted and covered with cheese. It was barely edible. There was very little corn with lots of cheese and spinach was puréed and extremely salty would not recommend any of the sides including the potatoes dish. Fortunately, there are a lot of steakhouses in the area, skip this one.

Bread would have been appreciated. Portion of sea bass was very small on the prix fix Vday menu. Should Have included some Vegetables or starch. Ended up with McDs fries after dinner.

The French onion soup, beet salad, crab bisque and dock confit were great, and the service was solid.I give it two stars because the restaurant had an overwhelming smell of cigar smoke. I get it, they also include a cigar bar, but this was awful. I may as well have been sitting in an ash tray; I couldn’t eat and leave fast enough!

Prime rib and bread pudding / key lime pie saved the meal. Stay away from the scallops, crab risotto, and potato soup.
