Hmm these statements are quite contradictory. A prime rib is just a ribeye that is not cut into individual steaks but is instead roasted whole... My issue with the Prime rib is that it often doesn't get any sear.
IMO filet is by far the most overrated steak. My overstatement: real steak people don't order the filet minion!
There are many steak houses where all steaks are prime except for the filet (because they know that real steak lovers don't order it anyway). The filet is tender sure but it has so much less fat that it is the least flavorful cut. My wife and I have made some good filets but usually that is because they are coated in herb butter or some other extra fat.
I always cringe when people order a well done filet, they might as well order a can of dogfood.
