A Berg Hospitality Group original concept, Prime 131 is a live-fire steakhouse and sushi bar within a revamped industrial space at The Docks at Timbergrove. Evoking the electric ambiance of New York’s chic yet edgy Meatpacking District in the early 90s, Prime 131 ignites a fresh dining experience in Houston where the artistry of grilling takes center stage.

A protein-forward concept with Korean and Japanese influence, Prime 131 creates a completely unique meat experience where diners watch their meal be prepared on four central wood fire grills and two Josper charcoal ovens. In addition, a full sushi bar and four Korean barbeque style tables offer curated experiences featuring some of the most exclusive cuts in the world.

Korean Grill Top Dining Experience at Prime 131
Multiple dates available
Our four exclusive, Korean grill top dining tables are sized for parties of 4-6. We are happy to accept parties of 2-3 at our first seating (4-5:30pm) or last seating (anytime after 9:30pm), but please call 713.840.1553 to reserve it with our host as we do not accept online reservations for parties under 4 guests. A cancellation fee of $50/guest will be applied if your reservation is canceled within 24 hours of your reservation seating time. If your party arrives late or is incomplete more than 15 minutes past the reservation time, we will try our best to accommodate you but may need to expedite your dining experience or reschedule it in order to honor the next reservation on the table.

Came for anniversary dinner. Was sat in a side room with and elevated view. Couldn’t decide if that was a plus or minus for me. Bar started slow but caught up. All the drinks were good. Oysters, naan and labnuh and shishito peppers started out. All great. Then we had the Omakase platter and it was great. Tv in our room had fireplace video playing but then switched to commercials for a few mins and that was distracting. Server was knowledgeable and friendly. Her assistant was Johnny on the spot. Would recommend.

Last evening was an improvement from our October experience. The staff were clearly improved from that evening in light of an even busier crowd coupled with a new trainer Thanks Louie was the main exceedingly talented wait staff

Today was our second visit to Prime 131 and my son’s birthday dinner was nothing short of amazing. Prime 131 is a must try for whatever the occasion or just a great date night.

Wonderful food and service! The table for eight was a little awkward as far as seating was concerned. Not well thought out, but we went on Valentine’s weekend to celebrate our son’s birthday. The staff was very nice about our birthday cake and let us to bring one in overall experience was outstanding.

One of my first negative steak house experiences in Houston… very expensive for what you get and some of the smallest portions I’ve ever seen. I would not recommend this restaurant to a friend. Very disappointed.
