Non-Alcoholic Drink that is must try was the Hibiscus Gimlet it's a House-made hibiscus tea, pomegranate, fresh lime & demerara Entrees: Top Steak pick--Chimichurri 8 OZ butcher's steak with broccoli & herb roasted potatoes. Topped with house-made chimichurri of parsely, cilantro, oregano, jalapeños, garlic, olive oil & vinegar. It was juicy, tender and savory. I recommend ordering it at medium temp. Burger lovers pick-Messi Argentinian chorizo, aged provolone, chimichurri, & fried onions with a fried egg with French fries. Perfect at medium rare temp. For kids: Chicken tenders and fries was great the kids loved it.

The menu is eclectic in the best way -- you can go comfort‑food heavy or fully vegan and still end up with something flavorful. The black bean burger and goat cheese wontons are especially worth the hype. The vibe is artsy, lively, and a little chaotic, but in a way that makes the experience fun rather than stressful. Service can be unhurried during busy hours, yet the staff stays friendly and attentive. Overall, it's a great place to settle in, enjoy good food, and soak up Gainesville's character.

Parking was free and plentiful, and we were seated without a long wait, though we highly recommend making reservations, especially on busy nights. The vibe is low-lit, romantic, and intimate which was perfect for a special occasion. Our waitress was fabulous and very attentive throughout the evening. To start, their "poppers" were absolutely delicious and a fun twist on traditional bread service, especially paired with the incredible blueberry butter. To celebrate, I ordered their Painkiller cocktail, which was smooth, delicious, and hit the spot. I also had the French onion soup, which arrived piping hot with perfectly melted cheese. For our entrées, we ordered the filet, the NY strip, and the rack of lamb, and every dish was excellent. We shared the corn and mashed potatoes, both of which were outstanding. I also loved the artistic touch on the menu check presentation. Overall, we're so happy we chose Prime & Pearl to celebrate our new marriage and will absolutely be returning in the future.

Kelly was professional, attentive, and genuinely kind, striking the perfect balance of being present without ever feeling intrusive. Every recommendation she made--from the wine pairing to the side dishes and even dessert--was absolutely spot on. The food was outstanding, and the service elevated the entire experience. We will definitely be returning and will be asking for Kelly in the future. Exceptional service like hers makes all the difference.

This place tastes like Chipotle if Chipotle visited Flavortown and married a chef that actually gave a sh*t about the quality of their food and sauces and then they had a baby and named it Fresh Kitchen or FK for short. Lots of really excellent bowls here. Can't go wrong with a tender medium rare steak bowl with veggies. If the menu is overwelming or you're not sure what goes together, just ask the staff- they're very helpful. Looking forward to coming back soon when I'm in the area! FK yeah!

However the food on the front line for customers who walk in to order is different than the line in the kitchen where they make the online orders. Therefore they will be out of a specific food item in the kitchen line but they have lots of it in the front line. But they will not go from the kitchen to the front line to fill an online order. Just seems like bad practice. The food is good. Changing my review from 3 to 4 stars, we noticed they threw in some healthy cookies, which were delicious, to make up for the curfuffle.

Seating is divided between indoor and outdoor patio. Order at the counter, get a number and then they will bring food out to you. Self serve water is available inside. We were there a busy day. Wait to order wasn't too bad and we found a table outside, but nobody was bussing any tables so basically customers sitting down were left clearing the dishes from the table of the people before them & wiping down the table. Nobody from the restaurant came out to help or apologize and it wasn't until dishes were almost toppling out of the bin that anyone took them away. Menu is pretty diverse - you can get some traditional items or more eclectic. We ordered the green goddess salad, croque mademoiselle (ham & cheese sandwich) on gluten free bread & okonomiyaki (japanese pancakes with cloud eggs). It took probably 30 min to get our food. The food presentation is really lovely & feels special when it's delivered. However, taste left something to be desired. The Japanese pancakes weren't good. The egg specifically looked really pretty all puffed up, but was so bad none of us were willing to have more than one bite. There were some other funky flavors going on there as well that detracted from enjoying it. The ham & cheese sandwich was okay, but the cheese is put on the outside, including a runny cheese, so it's a total mess to try and eat. Definitely do not order this one on a date! We ended up just eating the inside portion. It does come with a small green goddess type salad, which is nice. The entree green goddess appeared great when delivered. Loved the light, fresh dressing and ingredients. However, lots of the lettuce had sort of rotting tips, which made me worried to eat it especially since this isn't the cleanest place. Despite appreciating the quirkiness of the restaurant and the selection of fresh options they offer, we won't be returning.

    Are you even a Gator if you've been to Gainesville and never been to Spurrier's?!…read more I visited on Valentine's Day -- solo -- as a recent widow, and I honestly wasn't sure how the night would feel. What I didn't expect was to leave full, lifted, and smiling. I grabbed a seat at the bar (full service, first-come-first-served) and started with the shrimp scampi appetizer -- absolutely delicious. Then came a few expertly made cocktails thanks to Anthony, who was attentive without hovering, and Mandy, whose warmth and spirit felt like a hug you didn't know you needed. For dinner, I ordered the filet with miso-charred Brussels sprouts -- perfectly cooked, deeply flavorful, and worth every bite. Now... I never do dessert. But in honor of my late husband -- and his love for carrot cake -- I decided to Spurrier splurge. And I'm so glad I did. The vibe? It felt like end-of-the-third-quarter Gator energy -- all kinds of weather, all kinds of people, all in it because we stick together The food is excellent. The drinks are amazing. And the people -- especially Anthony and Mandy -- made this widow's first solo Valentine's Day something I'll always remember. Thank you for helping me have a really good night.
