    Theresa's Prime is one of our favorite date night places. The food is always excellent quality, prepared well and to our liking. All of the servers and restaurant staff are well trained, polite, and very helpful. We especially enjoyed having Alan last week. He always takes great care of us and makes spot on suggestions. He gives us the right amount of attention and makes us feel special. I got the surf and turf which was a filet with their own steak sauce and 2 baked stuffed shrimp topped with asparagus. My husband got the filet. We found everything absolutely delicious. When a restaurant knows how to treat their customers, has fantastic food, and really nice ambiance you keep going back. Theresa's Prime does just that and more. We hope to get back there real soon!

    Overall great.., had reservations, but they seemed like they didn’t have a table confirmed for us. Birthday celebration for two of us at the table, no complementary desserts ( I did mention birthdays in my request at time of reservation ). No big deal, but it’s always nice when you have that experience and restaurant shows that they appreciate your visit at a special time and celebration. Food (steak) was cooked to perfection (“medium rare” ), Sides were great, and the French Onion soup was to die for, piping hot, and not over salted. “Perfect” !!
    Teresa's PrimeResponded on November 11, 2024
    Thank you for sharing your experience, Steve! We're so pleased to hear you enjoyed the food—especially the perfectly cooked steak, delicious sides, and the French Onion soup, which sounds like it hit the mark! We appreciate your note on the reservation and birthday acknowledgment; we’ll certainly take that feedback to heart, as we want to make every celebration feel special. We’ll also pass along your compliments to the chef—they’ll be thrilled to hear the dishes were to your liking. We look forward to welcoming you back for another great experience at Teresa’s Prime!

    We had a wonderful meal including good steaks and lamb chops, good drinks, and good wines (by the glass). Noise was not a factor at all and we were actually surprised at how uncrowded it was on a Thursday night (good for us). Looking forward to our next visit (and maybe a wine locker!).

    Thank you, William! We’re so glad you had a wonderful meal and enjoyed the steaks, lamb chops, and wine selection. We appreciate the feedback on the comfortable noise level as well! We’ll be here whenever you’re ready for that next visit—and perhaps a wine locker too!

    Absolutely fantastic experience. Food was unreal. Steak is the best we’ve had especially in MA and we’ve been to a lot of the top rated steak houses. Breakdown of what we got and our opinion: - Tuna Tartar appetizer was unreal - Burrata salad was good we have had better though - Creamed Spinach was amazing - Au Gratin potatoes were cooked to perfection too 3 that we have had - Mushroom and Onion were okay, not the best we’ve had - Both got Ribeye, and I wish once this came out that I didn’t get anything before it, it stole the show. We got sauces on the side, I wouldn’t waste your time on the sauces, the steal was so good, cooked to perfection and cut so easily. I honestly savored every single bite. Service was great, our waitress was very friendly and very attentive. If I had to chose something as a downside, maybe just that it was warm in the dining area, they had the fireplace on which typically in October wouldn’t have been a negative but it was a warmer day. Overall, I can’t wait to go back. We’ve lived in North Reading for 2 years and I can’t believe we waited so long to try this place.
    Teresa's PrimeResponded on November 11, 2024
    Thank you for the fantastic breakdown, Sean! We’re thrilled to hear the steak was a standout and that you enjoyed so many of our dishes. We appreciate your thoughtful feedback on the dining area and your honest impressions of each dish. We’re excited to welcome you back soon—now that you’ve tried us, we hope to become a favorite!
