Hostess was very rude. Cold night we asked for indoor seating and just freaked out on us that they are full. There was no tables in use inside and just 1 or 2 outside. The place was completely dead and hard to get to. Truffle Mac and cheese is worse quality than Applebees. We will not be back

Perfect every time. The service was phenomenal. Moses did a fantastic job. He paced the the table, for order taking, drinks, appetizers to entrees. Never felt rushed or forgotten about. The food was scrumptious. The steaks were cooked perfectly. The sides were delicious ( asparagus, green beans and fries). The martinis and wine were lovely. The professional crew at Prime is above the rest. Mary, Philip, Maria and Moses make you feel comfortable and relaxed.

Always an incredible experience! Great martinis, great wine list and delicious steaks and sides! And the staff is 1st in class, from the hostess, Mary, to our awesome waiter, Andre. Trust me when I tell you that this is one of the best steakhouses in the country!

We had heard great things about Prime but our experience was subpar at best. We sat outside which we prefer when in Key West but the noise level was so loud we could not hold a conversation. There was a large table across the patio who were screaming obscenities non- stop and laughing pretty much the entire time we were there. I am all about having a good time, but this was extreme. We addressed it with the waiter. He said we could move inside, but it was as loud in there and suggested if we wanted a quite dinner to come later. (We had a 7:30 dinner reservation and it was after 8 at the time of the conversation). To the food... steak was fair nothing special. The crab cake was great. Steak fries and Caesar salad were good. When the waiter brought our food he said are you missing anything and I said the side of brussels sprouts -they were brought to the table after I had finished my meal. At that point, I didn't want them and it was obvious that I was finished but the server helping left them. The waiter finally comes back to the table and said do you want desert, and we said just the check. He proceeds to say since the brussels were a little late coming to the table I can get you a desert. We were wanting to leave not prolong this experience.

Food was very good. Hostess was a bit distant. Server had too many tables to be as attentive as you would expect. But still a lovely meal. Hard to find how to enter the restaurant.

We loved our dinner and our server, Robert. The food was absolutely delicious as well as the Oreo dessert martini, I could’ve had 20! Robert made the experience feel like more than your average steak house birthday dinner for us. Could not recommend this place or Robert enough!!
