Restaurant still seems a bit short staffed as many are. We did have to flag down for service twice, but servers were all well trained, professional, courteous and responsive.

Our server was amazing! She had to cover all the tables by herself due to no staff. Food was good for the most part, we expected more pizazz and steak was over cooked.

we had a really nice experience at this restaurant. the lobster appetizer and gruyere popovers were delicious. we were underwhelmed with the tomahawk for two, which was extremely fatty. The sides for multiple people were unusually small as well. it was almost completely empty for it being a Thursday night at 8:30 pm. Would give it a shot again

Excellent meal and excellent ambience! We were a party of six and everyone’s meal was excellent! The only negative was when we tried to make a reservation by phone the man who answered was not friendly and claimed he had no tables available for any size party. I went on OpenTable and was able to book 2 tables for our party and they combined us when we arrived. There were still empty tables the entire evening we were there, so whoever makes the reservations for the restaurant needs better training to learn better people skills and learn how to accommodate guests.

We've been here several times and wanted to visit again since the hotel (that this BLT Prime is in) might change hands soon. So I highly recommend, but fear what changes may come soon.

Everything was great except that we said at the outset that it was an 80th bday celebration. That was acknowledged when our server first came but she did nothing to recognize that until twice reminded and it was finally asked for “something with a candle.” That irritated everyone, resulting in a reduced gratuity. Otherwise excellent.

The food was not worth the $200 bill I paid for my son and into celebrate his birthday. My steak was cooked well done even though I requested medium, my Oscar style filet was a “topper” as the waitress referred to it as that was mixed with minimal crab meat and chopped asparagus to make it look full, my sons burger was charred on the outside and pink in the middle and our dessert was tasteless. Our server was amazing and she was apologetic for everything, which was sweet cause we never chose to send anything back we just ate it. Save yourself the money and go to Cap Grill or Prime. That Oscar style was pathetic.

Service was slow and they didn’t seat us at a great table. They initially tried to seat us at a table that was in the middle of everyone walking by. I’d try again, as it could’ve been an off night, but expected better given the price point.
BLT Prime by David BurkeResponded on March 8, 2022
Hi Sarah, Sorry if we didn't meet your expectations this past Saturday. As we strive for perfections, sometime we do not have enough balcony tables for everyone and during peak hours we may experience a slight delay in service. We are working hard on fixing this. Hope to see you soon again. Best regards, Massimo Giannetti General Manager

it is beautiful and our waiter was outstanding. i thought the value was good but i rated it a little low based on two glasses of iced tea for 16.00. they did a beautiful presentation of the candied bacon app, and another outstanding presentation of my sons birthday desert. i would come back.

Wonderful meal with everything from a delicious seafood appetizer to wagu steak two of us split. we also had many sides, plus the famous bacon strips and incredible puff bread along with a delicious bottle of Cabernet to complement the meal. I love this location since it’s as if you’re sitting outside on a balcony Vs indoor even though you are sitting within a huge atrium of a hotel. BLT gave us a great evening!
