A number of the country clubs have a prime rib night, where it is the featured entree. Don't be fooled. Its ok, but I don't believe they have the special ovens to roast it properly.
The best prime rib I have had recently has been at Oscar Penn in Inverness. Its only available Friday and Saturday. The owner smokes it himself on grills outside the restaurant. Reservations are essential.
Another good place is at the Fisherman's restaurant on hwy 44, going toward Inverness. Only available on Thursday nights. You have to call and reserve your meat (reg or large cut) in advance. He only prepares enough to satisfy the pre-orders.
Surprisingly, Mark's House of Prime in Ocala does not serve prime rib.
