Prime Seafood Palace is a modern steakhouse offering a selection of beef, seafood, and vegetables all sourced from purveyors we love and value. Unexpected - a space to truly experience in person. The main entry is located in a quiet courtyard, drawing patrons away from the humming activity of Queen Street West. Inspired by Matty Matheson’s travels, East Coast roots, and appreciation for architecture, the menu nods to the classic steakhouse tradition while highlighting seasonal ingredients.

    THE FOOD, AS ALWAYS, WAS EXCELLENT AND THE SERVICE OUTSTANDING. OUR HOSTESS WENT OUT OF HER WAY TO FIND A TABLE SUITABLE FOR MYSELF AND MY WIFE. BECAUSE I AM IN A WHEELCHAIR, I REQUIRE A SPACE WHERE MY WIFE COULD SIT BESIDE ME ON A HIGH STOOL TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR HER TO FEED ME. THE SERVER WAS ALWAYS THERE AT AN APPROPRIATE TIME. WE NEVER FELT RUSHED, BUT WE NEVER FELT NEGLECTED. THE ENTIRE EXPERIENCE FELT COMFORTABLE AND WELCOME.

    I had an incredible dining experience at Score on Queen! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Our server, Rucker, went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. He was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and made excellent recommendations. The food was absolutely delightful, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. I can't wait to return and enjoy another fantastic meal. Highly recommend!
