Searching for the best prime rib in Monmouth County?
Circle Wednesday on your calendar. Every week at The Squire in West Long Branch, Prime Rib Night turns the middle of the week into the best night to eat out — slow-roasted prime rib, carved to your cut, served with roasted Yukon Gold potatoes and chef's vegetables. Here's why this midweek tradition is worth planning around.
Why Prime Rib Is Different
A steak is seared; prime rib is roasted. That distinction is everything. The standing rib roast cooks slowly, letting fat render through the meat until every slice is tender, juicy, and deeply beefy. It's the cut that shows up at holidays and celebrations — which is exactly why a weekly prime rib night feels like a small occasion, even on an ordinary Wednesday.
Doing it right takes time — hours of slow roasting — which is why most kitchens don't offer it every day, and why the ones that dedicate a night to it tend to draw a crowd.
Wednesdays at The Squire
Every Wednesday, The Squire's kitchen slow-roasts prime rib and serves it the classic way:
Prime Rib Night, Done Properly:
- Choose your cut: Carved to order, sized to your appetite
- Slow-roasted: Hours in the oven for that tender, rosy center
- Classic sides: Roasted Yukon Gold potatoes and chef's vegetables
- The right glass: A curated wine list and premium bourbons built for red meat

The Case for the Midweek Dinner Out
Wednesday might be the smartest night of the week to dine well. The dining room hums without the weekend crush, reservations are easier to come by, and a standing tradition — same night, same table, same slow-roasted centerpiece — is the kind of ritual that gets the whole family to dinner without negotiation. Add the fact that Wednesday happy hour runs 4–7 PM at the bar, and the evening plans write themselves.
Beyond Wednesday: Steak All Week
If prime rib is your gateway, the rest of the week holds up. The Squire's Butcher's Corner serves Certified Angus Beef nightly — filet mignon, an 18oz Prime Ribeye, and a 32oz Porterhouse for two.
