    Best steakhouse. The food was spectacular. The service was excellent and it was a perfect thing to do before going to see a Broadway show. A little bit of a walk to get to the theaters but really a wonderful experience.

    First time at Prime, we normally visit the original around the block. Food and general service were very good, as always. Music was a bit loud, making it a bit distracting as we conversed. Very disappointed, however, that they did nothing for a noted birthday celebration. I noted it on the app and when I spoke with them to confirm the reservation. They told me they would acknowledge. Around the corner, they bring out a small celebratory dessert for the person celebrating and sing. In this instance, they simply wished the celebrant a happy birthday. Next time, back to the original.

    Food is great as always. As I was leaving the restaurant I was grabbed by our waiter and he asked “Sir was something wrong with the service” I said no. He proceeded to tell me that “ the suggested tip is $57 then”. I had a left a $30 tip. It’s beyond me that a waiter would feel comfortable to grab my arm to ask for a higher tip. I’ve never experienced this level of entitlement from a restaurant worker.
