    Great sushi, seafood and steaks by the Marina. Summer afternoons and evenings are magnificent here. Solid wine list. Upscale.

    The food was amazing. The service was even better. Marco was exceptional and made sure our table was well cared for all evening. Diego gave us a great table location and even was able to accommodate us when we arrived much earlier than our reservation. I would recommend this location for sure!

    The rating is given based on the one-time experience I had. Overall a nice ambiance with an excellent view, worth going. The food is something to die for. The flavors are well balanced, the taste is amazing.

    Excellent food and service. Birthday celebration for our daughter. It's hard to find a place to make beef wellington so I was excited to see it on the menu. And it did not disappoint. It was fun to see the boats coming and going. Place was packed when we left. Definitely have to get reservations.

    Lobster bisque was the most delicious I’ve had. The presentation and service added even more to the experience of the first taste. Highly recommend trying. The manager even went one step further in offering a sampling of 2 wines to pair with the bisque before ordering a glass, another nice touch to the food taste and experience. Beautiful interior decor and exterior views of the marina. Waiter was friendly and paced the food out well. Would definitely go back for lunch again and try dinner experience in the future.

    The highlight are their cocktails! Very fresh, elegant, modern cocktails, could experiment with different garnishes but overall the execution of classics like Cosmos or Old fashions are clean and neat. Have tried their food menu but still quite doesn’t meet quality and price. Worth the check if you’re looking for a place where you can enjoy of vibrant and exciting atmosphere but not if you’re looking for a well done meal.

    Great food and service every time! The location is right on the water so the view is always wonderful and the atmosphere and decor of the restaurant is beautiful! The gnocchi, caesar salad and creamed corn are all amazing and a must try!

    Pros: Unbeatable view next to the sea. We were able to look at the full moon in the night sky and the boats on the water while enjoying our food. The service was not bad although they were very busy accommodating a lot of guests at the same time. The cocktails with pineapple and cucumbers were very creative. The oysters, sprouts, and fries were amazing. The chocolate cake came with a very big size. Cons: Didn’t like the baked half chicken. The crispy smell and taste was not appreciated by me. I wish it could be cooked just like the sprouts. The steak sandwich was a little plain. The waiter was not speaking very clearly when introducing the specials. So we didn’t order any specials. Just ordered whatever on the menu.

    Visited Prime and rating it 3 stars. The experience was decent. The staff were alright. Enjoyed the marina views. The truffle gnocchi and lobster bisque were delightful. Mains, especially the burger, were good. While the location, ambiance, and price are in the mix, I had hoped for a bit more.

  • 5/5 Nicole N. 2 years ago on Google
    An outstanding dining experience. Great view. Diverse team and clientele. The staff is professional, gracious and aims to please. The food is delicious. Parking is not a problem. Be sure to take a stroll along the waterfront. Options for gluten free folks! I do not have a single criticism. Just go! Make your reservation and go!

    Fabulous restaurant for great steak and sushi. Multiple starters and entrees ordered, with no disappointments. Beef wellington high recommend!

  • 5/5 Stephen Brouillard (. 6 months ago on Google
    If you're looking for an inexpensive meal, this is not the place. Having said that, the experience was absolutely stellar. The wait staff was top notch. They were attentive without hovering and complimentary without being obsequious. In a word, professional. The food was extraordinary. We had the Wagyu Ribeye and the Paella. Both were excellently prepared. If you want to impress someone special with an amazing experience, I can recommend Prime with no hesitation.

    I love the Japanese A5 Wagyu black truffle lobster sushi roll. I like the foie gras and prefer it hot as the serving plate cools the foie gras making it less satisfying. I like the squash side and parmesan cheese side. Beautiful view.

  • 5/5 Eanna O. 5 months ago on Google
    First time here and from when we walked in the door we were made feel welcome. The service was very good and well worth the tip at the end of the meal. The menu is reassuringly small, however there is still plenty of choice and something for everyone…even the most fickle amongst us. They easily catered for intolerances and were very professional in doing so. The restaurant is roomy and the table large so you can eat without bumping elbows or eaves dropping on the conversation beside you. The staff were always there but never obvious. Really enjoyable experience and we will go back.

    Fantastic dining experience! I am from the south and rarely am impressed by hospitality up north, but Prime absolutely blew me away. Top notch service from Diego & his crew! Some of the best drinks, food and desserts I’ve had in a long while. I’m very picky & 10/10 recommend this place! Some of the friendliest staff to boot!

    Total winner for ambience and setting. Awesome cocktails and better wine (albeit slightly $$) Excellent octopus and tuna tartare. The star of the show is not the steak. Arrived blue and when redone I received the same NY Strip cut in two. Overall worth a visit, sushi looked great.

  • 4/5 Jennifer J. 1 year ago on Google
    Pretty good. My beef wellington was medium instead of medium rare but still good so I didn't send it back. The cocktails are great and I would highly recommend the gnocchi. My brother's filet was cooked perfectly and I'd say my dad's halibut was a tad bit overcooked. Great outdoor seating.

    Food 4⭐️ Drinks 2⭐️ Service 5⭐️ Atmosphere 5⭐️ Food was good. Happy they had special and everything came cook well. Oysters were awesome! DRINKS wish I didn't waist the money. Me and my boyfriend both ordered 2 Drinks each. Leaving with no buzz at all and the drinks tasted week sadly. Service was fast and they cleaned the table quickly. Probably won't come again unless it is during the day so I can appreciate the beautiful view.

  • 5/5 Matt S. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely fantastic start to finish. My girlfriend brought me here for my birthday. Appetizers: oysters and crab cakes. Best crab cakes we had at any restaurant. Oysters were great size as well. Our entrees: her- sushi with a side of Mac and cheese me- New York strip with a side of whipped potatoes both great well cooked exactly how I wanted my steak cooked (medium rare). Desserts were absolutely amazing (cheese cake/ fudge cake). Now that food is covered let’s get to the amazing service. Beyond attentive and kind. Between our waiter to the water water and the floor manager. Asked us if we wanted out quick (came early so it was slow) or if we would like to pace ourselves and not get our food right away. One thing I thought was really kind. View is lovely inside is very on the water vibe. Be ready to pay but well worth it all. Highly recommend
