    Great service and food. They were out of the most popular cuts of beef. Not cool for a steak house.

    Great experience! Staff was friendly but they overcooked the steak by a lot, charring on part of a medium rare. We got it fixed but that’s the only complaint, drink(s), app, side, and a porterhouse for under 150!

    I had a great time at Prime & Pearl last night. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. The ambiance was nice, though it was a bit noisy at times. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience, and I’d recommend it!

    Oyster sampler was good. Redfish was very fishy and texture was just okay. Shrimp pasta dish could do with about 1/2 the sauce. Chicken was tasty. Service was very good.
