USDA Prime is a grade of meat. Most Prime grade meat is bought by high end restaurants and steak houses, although Omaha steaks advertises prime beef on line. You are unlikely to get prime grade at a mid range or lower cost restaurant. First of all, it is somewhat hard to get, and expensive even for a restaurant. Second, they probably couldn't sell it----would you pay $45 for a steak at a local "Diner, drive-in, or dive"??? (No offense to Guy Fieri's new establishment)

There was a restaurant outside of Utica NY. I was acquainted with the owner and his cousin an attorney. the resaurant served family style and his prime for each person was a double cut ( 2 bone). today that cut would last me at least two meals
