"If you'd prefer a place in Hollywood try the Dakota in the Roosevelt Hotel. They've got some pretty good prime ribs if you don't mind atmosphere of yuppies etc. I stopped going here because I can't stand crowds."

Same with Boa inside the Grafton Hotel on Sunset Blvd. If you don't mind the ambiance, the steak (especially the prime rib or the filet mignon) is excellent. The tables are small and it's a bit noisy in there. Great service, and not too long of a wait if you don't have a reservation.
