It was a busy night- New Year’s Eve, so there was no helping the party before us taking an extra 30 minutes at our table. They bought us a round at the bar to make up for our late seating and the food and waitstaff made up for the delay. We will be back!

The Prefix menu was excellent, and all the dishes we chose were well executed. The restaurant was very busy that night, but our service was spot on. One of our favorite Wilmington restaurants and we will return soon.

We order all five courses at the beginning and they we delivered with ample time to enjoy but no excessive waits. The food was outstanding, perfectly seasoned and most had wonderful sauces. Our server, Reagan, was very pleasants and quick to accomodate any needs. Floriana really pulled it off on a busy holiday evening.
