text: **Restaurant Week - Spring 2012**\n\nBefore I start, I should probably mention that I'm not actually a prime rib fan.  For whatever reason, prime rib has never really struck my fancy.  However, it is the hubster's favorite dinner, so when I saw Lawry's menu for RW, I thought we could give it a try.\n\nI'm so glad that we did!  First of all, the decor and atmosphere are just fun.  It's vintage to the point of tacky, which is what makes it so fun.  The waitresses did look silly with the folded-napkin bonnet, but ours was wonderful and friendly.  I could tell she had a customary way of greeting tables and explaining the process since she kept calling us \"ladies and gentlemen.\"\n\nWe started the meal with the spinning salad, which was delicious.  The dressing and croutons were sweet and garlicky, and the overall salad was a nice, fresh way to start the meal.\n\nI decided to join the hubster in getting prime rib, and to my eternal delight it was absolutely delicious!  I decided to get mine medium rather than medium-rare (the way I normally enjoy my steaks), and it made a world of difference.  The meat was tender and juicy, and flavorful in the best possible way.  I didn't even use as much horseradish as I originally thought I'd need/want to, since there was no need to mask the flavor.  \n\nThe mashed potatoes were wonderful, with a delicious gravy (and I'm not even a brown gravy fan!  Hubster had the creamed corn (his favorite), and I ordered the creamed spinach.  Both were tasty, but a definite second fiddles to the main event.\n\nWe ended the night with coffee and dessert, hubster ordering the creme br\u00fbl\u00e9e and me the chocolate mousse.  Both were incredibly delicious, but almost an overly rich end to an overwhelming meal. \n\nIn all honesty the main complaint I had was that there was too much food!  The 10 oz. prime rib, although scrumptious, was much too large a portion for my taste.  I wish the 7 oz. portion would have been an option for RW since I felt wasteful after I was through (ironic considering the destination of the RW proceeds).
