    Reserved a premium priced Valentines Day dinner for two. $350 total. 20% gratuity included + a special service charge. Table not ready at the time of the reservation which has not such a big deal. Another round of 2 drinks at the bar was $40. The limited special menu had a Lobster appetizer or raw oysters. They ran out of the Lobster....hmmn? You might want to assure youu have enough for the number of prepaid reservations you take. Too many employees helping themselves to it I figure. Beef Wellington was overcooked well done. Yuk. I could go on. Not at all impressed. Not nearly worth the money.

    We dined here for Valentine’s Day and purchased the special prepaid package well in advance. Unfortunately, we were disappointed to find that some menu items were already sold out, despite having made reservations months ahead of time. Given the advanced planning, we expected the restaurant to have sufficient quantities to accommodate all pre-booked guests. Additionally, the portion sizes were surprisingly small for the price paid, which left us feeling that the value did not match the cost. Service was also underwhelming—our waiter seemed disengaged with tables that had purchased the package, possibly because gratuity was already included. Meanwhile, walk-in guests appeared to receive more attentive service. Overall, while the ambiance was enjoyable, the experience fell short of expectations. Better planning and more consistent service would have made the evening feel special rather than disappointing.

    I made a reservation a month in advance and asked for a window table. We also had a second reservation placed under another name because we need to pay for this in advance. There was a lot of chaos and confusion over this reservation. I made three separate phone calls and sent three emails confirming and going over the details that I was looking for. We arrived and they did have the other two guest combined with our reservation so that was fine. We seated at a location, I had not requested. We’re in the back of the restaurant. When I asked why we didn’t get the table that was requested I was given a very abrupt and inappropriate answer I was told or full and this is where you’re seated no concern for the fact when I responded, I made this reservation a month ago and asked for a specific location very blasé response. We ordered our food. It took a long time to receive our drinks. Our appetizer came before the drinks did I would say at least 15 minutes for a drink. The drink was absolutely lovely, but the appetizer was terrible. We ordered a lobster tail. They had reduced the amount of meat to one bite of lobster and a lot of sauce. I would say that the taste was fine, but I couldn’t find the rest of the lobster tail so I sent it back. Everybody had the same experience and had the same reaction. This was not a lobster tail. Where did the rest of it go. I grew up in Maine, so this was incredibly offensive. They were very nice about substituting for the oysters. The oysters were absolutely lovely. We went onto salad and soup and both were very good. We all four had ordered snakes and they were prepared for three people the way that they wanted them, but for me, it was not rare. I was not going to send something else back so I was reconciled to this was not going to be the best dinner. The desserts came out and they were lovely and the presentation was quite attractive. We paid for our additional cost and left the restaurant feeling a little disappointed, all four of us

    First time to Primrose. Our reservation was later for brunch. 1:00 PM. Our table was 1 of 2 during our visit. Food was tasty. Service was subpar. I had to ask for coffee and others in our party had to ask for juices. I expected more attention from staff although it was a Buffett. Our check was pre-paid with reservation along with gratuity. This may have had some issues from staff. Expectations were higher with it being a New Year’s Day brunch.

    We bought tickets to the New Years Eve dinner which included a 20% gratuity. After being seated it took roughly 30 minutes for a server to come to our table and it was close to 45 minutes before we got drinks. Once the server went over the menu we were informed that one of the advertised choices (wagyu short ribs) was not being offered. This felt like false advertising. The table next to us was served a dish not even on the menu (steak) and we are still unsure how that happened since we were told the butternut steak was a vegetarian option. This experience felt like a missed opportunity for the resort and the restaurant. The food was good and server friendly but the experience was deceptive and definitely not worth it. I would not recommend or purchase again.

    Bill was wrong. They did correct it. She crab soup smelled strongly indicating it should be thrown out. They did charge me for it. No vegetarian entrees. After insisting, the wait staff asked for an accommodation they provided one but the price was absurd. They did provide a free dessert because we were celebrating a birthday, which was nice. Desserts and entrees were good. But the refusal to substitute sides is a bit pretentious at a beach restaurant.

    The restaurant is lovely the food is good. They were very understaffed for Christmas dinner. For a fine dining experience I didn’t feel that we received an experience that matched what The Henderson is going for.
