    I loved absolutely everything about this restaurant from the ambiance and decor to the food quality and friendly staff. My husband and I went to celebrate his birthday and our anniversary and retreated to champagne and delicious piece of cheesecake after we had the best dinner we can remember. We will absolutely be back!

    We were visiting the city and celebrating our anniversary. We found Prime and tried it out based on reviews. Parking was valet but I think it should be free. The staff were kind and nice. We had two greeters and both were attentive, engaging and consistent. The restaurants printed our names on the menu! The food came out very quick and it was delicious. The portions are rather small for the price. We would have thought they would give us a dessert for our special occasion! They gave us excellent recommendations for desserts and they were great! Try the brownie and salted caramel ice cream! Overall, it was a good experience and we would return, if and when we’re in the area!
