Overall very consistent with my other Berg experiences. Food good but price point a bit high, service good but not great. The food -- all good but overpriced Sushi - had to go with a cooked roll for my preggo friend -- 7/10 -- would consider giving raw a try Grilled salad - 10/10 - loved this Steak - 8/10 - good but why so pricey??? --- don't get the sauces -- doesn't need Sides -- potatoes and macaroni -- 10/10 - winners of the night Dessert -- 8/10 - good presentation, tasty.. chocolate cake with lemon and lime a little odd... maybe something more graham cracker related? Parking -- - valet with some self parking available. Lots of spots Service -- - friendly but not quite the quality you expect with a $100+ steak Vibes -- nice spot for a date night, intimate group read more

The newest concept from Berg Hospitality group did not disappoint! Great for intimate occasions! We were celebrating birthdays and decided to splurge a little making it an unforgettable experience. Food - tried the smoked veal bacon, dinosaur bone marrow and chicken fried lobster to start. Winner there would be the bacon. Main course- sampled the Australian Wagyu tomahawk and the Hokkaido Prefecture Snow Beef Striploin. MELTS in your mouth like butter ! We accompanied them with the broccolini, mash potatoes and the mac and cheese. Everything memorable and worth every penny. Thank you to everyone who catered to us that evening. Prime 131, I'll be back. read more

Tomahawk steak one of the best we've had! Amazing service, great drinks and ambiance. It's our go to place for birthday celebrations.

I'll give this place the benefit of the doubt because our friends love it. We wouldn't go back. The drinks were sub par, the food was the same. We had the marrow, fried lobster, steak, and a few other things. Honestly, nothing was really good at all. And the ambiance is weird. read more

Everything was amazing. I will definitely be coming back. From the appetizers to the entree everything was perfectly cooked.

We came here during Restaurant Weeks with a group of friends. Everything was great, service was great, the food was pretty good, the drinks were ok. Our server was great, we did take our toddler and that went well, we were worried that it wasn't going to be kid friendly. The area is kind of tight for the high chair, but they did have them available. Overall it was a good experience. read more

The food was amazing along with the ambience and service. Haley treated us like royalty. We had lots of sushi, the bone marrow and steaks.

Located in a revamp industrial part of Timbergrove area. Good location to me because I live nearby. Parking was an ease. There is $8 valet but I opted to self-park which was complimentary. I didn't have a reservation for a Sunday night. So I was a walk in but was greeted and seated at a table for one (me!) mood was overall romantic and upscale. I like the vibe, you can see the kitchen and fire from the stoves working. I order for my main, the bone-in short rib. It was giving very much The Flintstones but it was GOOD. Very tender and flavorful. However, I was disappointed in the size of the loaded mashed potatoes for the price. The size was very personal which would be good for only one person, in my opinion. I wanted leftovers but the only thing that I had leftover was the short rib. There is a dessert menu that is separate. I got the Basque cheesecake! It was yummy! Wasn't super dense, rich nor too sweet. It came with a nice presentation too. My server was great too with helping my selections and giving recommendation. read more

We had the best experience here!!! We came early for dinner and the menu is pretty big. We ordered a little of everything from different sections on the menu. We started off with the mini crab cakes, the hamachi crudo, and I got the shrimp tempura roll since I can't eat anything raw at the moment. All of them were excellent! I was pleasantly surprised by the shrimp tempura roll. It was really fresh and the flavors were on point. For our entrees, we for the Australian wagyu strip steak and the lobster. Both were cooked perfectly and I can't recommend these enough! For dessert, we got the deconstructed key lime pie which I wasn't a fan of. Our waiter ended up getting us the blood orange sorbet which was much better. I would say dessert was the only thing we didn't enjoy. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here. The restaurant looks bigger than it actually is from the outside. Def recommend checking them out! read more

Prime 131 is a major HIGHLIGHT on my 33rd birthday! I'm usually skeptical on trying out newer restaurants that don't have many reviews, especially when they're expensive but eating here has opened my food mind. Based on the reasons I just stated I wouldn't have chosen this place but I was taken here and I'm SO glad I was! To start off with the area is low-key so it's easy to get to. They offer valet but also have some accessible free parking spaces. I saw the beef images outside so knew it was a steakhouse but was pleasantly surprised to find their quality sushi menu as well. I bring up sushi but prior to going here I had never tried any raw sushi and had been skeptical of trying it since I had a tuna tartar elsewhere that I couldn't stomach to finish. I think it was a whirlwind of the quality presentation at the sushi bar, them having A5 steak (I'll get to that later) and it being my birthday that made me adventurous enough to try the raw sushi. I'm extremely glad that I did! The person that I was with also tried raw sushi for the first time and it wasn't for them but I believe that's just the idea of raw sushi didn't agree with her. I went with the 5 piece Chef's Selection of Nigiri and after sharing 1, I enjoyed the rest. I forget exactly which pieces were included. I personally did request a soy sauce for dipping but the sushi was good either way. I love a good bread to start a meal and the Parker House Rolls were a delight. I went with the Chicken Fried Lobster for an appetizer. Again the person with me didn't enjoy it but I loved it. The lobster pieces were well seasoned themselves but the sauces (3 I believe) worked really well with it and together gave a well rounded tang to it. I personally prefer not to have alcohol with my dinner but due to the somewhat limited non-alcoholic beverages they have (they do have a number of mocktails) I decided to do a French 75 as I am typically a drinker of gin. Now to be honest I love mac and cheese and I'll probably order it 9/10 times at most places. I can honestly say that I am beyond glad that I tried it here as well. Not because it was just a flavorful Mac and Cheese but because it was done in an inventively new way for me. It was large pasta shells Stuffed with Ricotta Cheese. This was my first time having ricotta in a mac and cheese and it came together pleasantly. I'm unsure what all other cheeses were in the dish, but there was also a foam over the top that help make the dish light yet decadent. The Spinach Gratin was no slouch as well. The ricotta stuffed mac and cheese was my favorite of the two, but I would struggle to try another option the next time I come because they were both delicious. I'm sure that the fact that they offer A5 Japanese Wagyu was a significant reason this place was chosen for me. I had never tried it prior to coming here but it was definitely on my bucket list. As soon as I saw it, I basically knew that I had to at least try it. They also offer American and Australian wagyu as well as USDA prime, but not many places offer A5 Japanese wagyu. I will say that reading is fundamental lol. Looking at the menu, I wondered why the A5 Japanese wagyu prices were lower than the American and Australian wagyu since I know it is of a higher quality in price. I just assumed that they were smaller Cuts and so you would just be getting less me at per price. I went with Kagawa Prefecture Olive Beef Tenderloin. The person with me was also going to get A5 until they notice that the a five beef was priced per ounce and had a 4 oz minimum, so she instead ordered a lower cost cut of steak. I didn't realize this until after I had fully ordered. Again I enjoyed my A5 steak but she wasn't a fan of it. By the way I did get mine cooked medium. We had the prime 131 steak sauce, yakiniku sauce, and ponzu garlic butter sauce to go with the steaks. They were all cool but weren't needed with the steaks. For dessert, I ordered the Basque Cheesecake because I wanted something light and it came with a smoke presentation. Had I known that I would also have been receiving a complimentary birthday dessert as well I likely would not have ordered the extra. I'm not sure what the complimentary dessert was but it was cool. I can't say that the cheesecake was better. The cheesecake also had an almond Our waiter was helpful and regularly kept coming to the table to check on our order. The bus boy with him (I'm not sure if that's the right word) clearly had a sense of being new but was fairly kind and helpful as well. One of my only complaints would probably be that the waiter did bring me chopsticks that had about an inch of the tip of one of them broken but he did swiftly replace it once I asked for a replacement. The inside of the restaurant is pretty chill personally the decor didn't stand out but I did really enjoy the open kitchen with the fires they use. I extremely enjoyed the dining experience and crave the next time I get to enjoy it! read more

I had an excellent experience with Ashley at 131 Prime! Her service was absolutely outstanding--she was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The entire experience was top-notch, and I truly appreciate her professionalism and positive attitude. Highly recommend Ashley for anyone looking for exceptional service at 131 Prime! read more

First, let me say that Prime 131 had amazing food and wine selections. The house rolls and butter were delicious and very fresh and warm. Almost everyone at my table ordered the filet and it was cooked to perfection and came out hot. The broccolini, fries, and mashed potatoes were also delicious. A few things I didn't love and that knocked this restaurant down.... 1. The first thing you smelled when you walked in the restaurant was an overwhelming smell of Mezcal. 2. The service started out very strong but then before we even ordered seemed to taper off and we constantly had to try to flag our waiter down to get more water or order any additional drinks and food. 3. The Sommelier was very awkward and sent over to speak with us when we had already ordered a bottle and didn't ask for him...he then came back a few times to check on us and was equally awkward each time he came over. I would go again for the food but the service needs an adjustment! read more

Chili lemon grilled oysters are great for an appetizer! They have the perfect spicy kick to them. The 8oz fillet was one of my favorites - they add whole garlics which adds a lot of flavor. If you have room left over, the desserts are next level! The place is very spacious and has a lot of decorations. Definitely dress up! It's a fun date night vibe. Service was average. I didn't appreciate that we had to ask for the HRW menu- it felt like they were intentionally hiding it. read more

Ate here on Saturday Dec 3rd. Service was absolutely terrible. From the bartenders to the server to the servers helpers. We were a party of 6 celebrating our friends birthday. Our server Bill explained it was his first week waiting tables alone, we were super understanding, but he never came back after taking our order, literally until it was time for us to pay. Manager compensated by finally bringing us waters since our cups were empty for close to 40 minutes, and then took care of our desserts. She was very nice. Everyone was very nice. I think the service just needs a bit of an upgrade. Food was very good. They had a great variety. read more

Another amazing meal at Prime 131. Only took one pic of the meal but what I didn't picture was equally as good. Dozen oysters = amazing. Grilled Romaine Salad = a must try in our opinion. We ordered the mushrooms and asparagus as sides. Fantastic. My wife has the lobster dinner, it was delicious. From the appetizers to the mains to the drinks to the s'more's with homemade marshmallows and chocolate we love this place, never had a bad meal here, every dish is unique and delicious. Highly recommend!! read more

Prime 131 - 16oz USDA NY Prime Strip - Steakhouses Near Me - Houston, Texas

Had a delicious dinner for HRW, but had to try a few things off the regular menu. The dragon roll was excellent. I was glad they used real lump crab meat. The combination of flavors was great. We also loved the roasted bone marrow. The addition of the braised short rib meat was a nice touch, definitely pushed it above other bone marrow dishes in Houston. For the entrees, we got the miso cod and the filet. The filet was cooked to perfection and the cod really melts in your mouth. We added on the loaded mashed potatoes which came with a truffle jus and both were fantastic. For dessert, we took the basque cheesecake home. I forgot that I saw pictures of an awesome presentation so I sort of regretted ordering it to go, but they ended up being delicious regardless. The crunchy topping was a great touch. Alexandra was also a wonderful server. I ordered an extra dirty martini and couldn't decide between regular or blue cheese olives and she brought me both read more

Tried this place for the first time tonight for dinner. Disappointing for the price point. Friendly service, but food was mediocre. Filet not cooked as ordered, and at that point the waitress Tatianna seemed to hand us off to other staff. Ambience was also mediocre- sat at a table in the bar area overlooking the outdoor patio that was a constant stream of sweaty booties leaving the gym next door. A la carte menu. Wine selection nice, but the waitress sat the wine bucket next to me instead of my man- not how it should have been done. We were served our first course and had to wait for someone to come by our table to ask for napkins and silverware. Lack of attention to detail at this place is why we will never be back. And there's fine print at the bottom of the menu of a 3% restaurant operations fee to accommodate rising prices. Why not just include that in the menu prices? We left hungry and went to a tried and true place of ours in the Heights on 11th Street- Field and Tides is far superior and probably half the price for even better food, menu selection and service. read more

Appetizers were good, yellowtail sashimi was fresh and delicious. Oysters were very flavorful. Lots of Asian inspirations here. The Parkhouse roll is a must get. Soft baked and the butter was just to die for. I love it. The ribeye was well prepared. The mac and cheese is a must try as it's not the what you expect. The mashed potatoes were great too. All the sauces were equally good. There's a nice bar list, and a full elevated bar selection. There are also TVs there so perfect for date nights. There's parking and valet as well. read more

JT was a great server and the food was excellent! Really cool atmosphere and my birthday panna cotta dessert was to die for!

This is definitely not your typical expensive restaurant that you would just take your family to after a graduation ceremony or try to celebrate your kid's 10th birthday. However, this is perfect for an engagement party, anniversary, date night, or something extra special. My work office had a dinner here and I basically got to eat most of their menu and I was highly impressed with all the different selections that they have to offer under one roof. We ate in the private party room and the food came out steadily and in a timely manner. Edamame (salted) - Can't go wrong with this. It was perfectly salted and a great appetizer! Grilled Sourdough Bread - The bread was nothing to brag about, but the BUTTER!!! That was amazing. Grilled Pita with Labneh - Pita was soft and warm. The labneh was pretty good, but I wasn't too crazy about it. Housemade Chorizo & Avocado Salad - I didn't think I was going to be impressed by this, but WHOA, it was amazing! This was very good. Jumbo Lump Mini Crab Cakes - This was fantastic. This and the salad were my two favorite appetizers. Yellowtail Carpaccio - I was surprised at how much I liked this! The flavor was great and the texture was not slimy at all. Crunchy Spicy Tuna Roll - Wow, this was delicious. I inhaled most of the roll myself. Salmon roll (I don't remember if it was the Miso Salmon or the Salmon&Salmon) - This was SO good, too! I wish I remember which one it was. I also ate a lot of this. Can you tell that I love sushi? Yellowtail Serrano - Pretty good, but after eating the Crunchy Spicy Tuna & Salmon roll, this was meh. It was similar to the Yellowtail Carpaccio. Grilled Head on Shrimp - This was okay. It was good, but it wasn't unique or $36 worth. Marinated Baby Chicken - You would think this would be meh, but this was very good! The chicken was tender and juicy. The potatoes were also amazing. Spinach Gratin - This was good! It was a tad bit salty, so I think if you ordered this with the sourdough bread, it would be the perfect combination. French Fries - YOOO, their French fries were out of this world. It was the perfect crisp, seasoning, and everything. Wow. Caramel Posset - This was very interesting. It was unique and different in terms of taste. It's not bad, but I didn't enjoy it too much. Basque Cheesecake - This was good! I've never had Basque cheesecake before. It's a different texture than the NY Style for sure. Keylime Pie - This was amazing! I think this was made special/differently for us because I don't see it on the menu. S'mores - This was my favorite dessert! You can't go wrong with anything s'mores. All in all, the menu is vast and there is something for everyone to enjoy. The food was amazing and the service was great. This restaurant is upscale and it reflects in the pricing. Thus, it may not be for everyone, but I think this place is worth trying for sure! Definitely keep it in mind for a special occasion. (: read more

Second time here, even more impressed Second trip here the waiter had us go surf and turf with the whole lobster and a steak. Both times I've been here, with two different cuts of meat I think this is the best steak I've ever had. The lobster was perfect, and unique with the butter/sauces. The vibe here is dark, industrial, and the instant you walk in the door you're hit with a woodsy, smokehouse vibe. New favorite spot. read more

Food Was Just Okay--But Getting Charged Three Times Was Not - Still No Resolution On Saturday, March 29th, my partner flew into town for just one day, and we chose Prime131 for what we hoped would be a nice dinner. Unfortunately, the experience turned into a frustrating and costly ordeal. We had a reservation and were seated promptly, but it took over 10 minutes before anyone acknowledged us. Our waitress eventually apologized for the delay and took our order. The food was a mixed bag--lobster (3/5), vegan rolls (2/5), bread rolls (1/5), soup (4/5), crab cakes (4/5), asparagus (3/5), and the water (5/5). The real issue began when it was time to pay. Prime131 uses the "InKind" app, which was offering $50 off a $150+ order. Our bill before tip was $225.17. While I was trying to apply the discount on the app, our waitress stood next to me, said "you do it here," and what she pressed was "Pay Now" on my phone before I could stop her. That charge came out to $261.31 (including tip). She apologized and said her manager could reverse it. A few minutes later, she returned saying the first charge had been reversed and a new ticket was ready. I then paid again, this time successfully using the coupon--charge number two for $212.61. However, I checked my account and saw both charges had gone through. When I brought this up, the waitress had the manager, Jacqueline, come over and she voided the second charge instead of the first. She then generated a third ticket for $212.61 and asked me to pay again. I received a fraud alert from my bank, cleared it, and paid the third charge. Now I had been charged twice--once for $261.31 and once for $212.61. Jacqueline assured me the $261.31 charge would "fall off." It didn't. On Monday, March 31st, both charges cleared my bank. I received a duplicate charge alert and had to open a dispute with my bank, who now requires a full investigation. On top of that, I've submitted all supporting documentation to help my case. I emailed Prime131 on April 1st. I called on April 2nd. Today is April 3rd and I have heard absolutely nothing back--not an email, not a phone call, not even a courtesy follow-up. At the very least, manager Jacqueline should have followed up after the error they made. They had my contact info from the reservation, yet have chosen not to respond. It's exhausting having to chase down almost $300 due to a restaurant's repeated mistakes, while also fighting with my bank to recover my own money. I'm tired of establishments that present themselves as upscale or premium, but fail to deliver even basic customer service or accountability. The food was just okay, the service lacked attentiveness, and the aftermath has been nothing short of a hassle. If you're going to charge fine-dining prices, the experience--from the meal to the follow-through--should reflect that. Reviews have a way of bringing about a sense of urgency, where there was none so perhaps this will prompt the attention and action that should've happened days ago. I hope Prime131 steps up and resolves this fully and promptly. read more

We dined here on our anniversary last night and man were we impressed! Edwin was our server and he was extremely attentive and took care of everything we needed all night. Edwin came by multiple times to make sure we didn't need anything, always keeping our drinks full!

We will definitely be back when we are in town! read more

Prime 131 - Steakhouses Near Me - Houston, Texas

We made a reservation and were seated promptly upon arrival. The service was impeccable. Our server was highly attentive and other servers were consistently filling our waters and clearing plates. Appetizers: Parker house rolls: 3/5, Good flavor but dry Smoked clam chowder: 3/5, Very flavorful and rich but really salty. If they had dropped the salt levels this would be a 4/5 Grilled romaine salad: 4/5, Char on the romaine was a nice touch. The dressing was a perfect blend of tangy and rich. There was just too much salt once again Chicken fried lobster: 4/5, Fried nicely where the lobster was juicy inside while the outside was still crispy Sushi: Dragon roll: 4/5, Standard shrimp tempura roll executed well Nigiri: 4/5, no fishiness but pretty standard Chutoro Otoro Scottish salmon Mains: Alaskan king crab: 4/5, Moist and not too salty but flavorful Kagawa perfecture olive beef tenderloin: 2/5, I've had A5 wagyu at other places where it was grilled table-side which I believe is the best way to have it. This was prepared in the kitchen and came out sad, small, and like crusted fat Australian wagyu ny strip: 4/5, the center was more tender the the outside pieces but overall good flavor and enough fat to make each bite enjoyable Sides: Loaded mashed potatoes: 3/5, Incredibly salty but otherwise good Ricotta stuffed mac: 4/5, Good amount of cheese. It was gooey inside the noodle and the outside had crispy edges. Thankfully not too salty Grilled broccolini: 4/5, Had a nice crunch and a good amount of salt. The vinaigrette coated each broccolini nicely and wasn't too tangy Desserts: Basque cheesecake: 4/5, The berry coulis gave the cheesecake a slight tartness. I would have preferred it without the berries but still an enjoyable dessert Black Forest: 2/5, This one might have been executed well and maybe I just don't have experience eating mud cakes and ganache. The flavor was good (not too sweet or bitter) but the cake was dry and the ganache had a paste like consistency Overall, we agree the restaurant should get a 3.5/5 based off of the above points but for $900+ for 3 people we really expected more. read more

We had the Lobster Bites and the Sushi Roll. Both were delicious. The service was impeccable and the ambiance was warm and inviting

Great service loved the vibe! Nigiri was fantastic and was surprised by this for some reason!

Went to Prime 131 for the first time last night. We had 8:30 reservations but weren't seated until after 9. While waiting at the bar, my wife and I were ignored by the bartender until I politely asked if we could order a drink. She ordered a strawberry mojito (which she felt was below average), while I had the dragon fruit margarita, which was phenomenal. Once seated, we had two servers -- Isabella stood out and really made the night pleasant, while the other server seemed less attentive. We did the 3-course menu. I started with the lobster miso soup (which unfortunately came out cold the first time). To their credit, they remade it, but when the male server brought it back, he just placed it down without a word, which felt a bit rude. My wife had the 131 salad, which she enjoyed. For mains, I ordered the Wagyu short steak and my wife had the short rib with a side of mac & cheese. My steak was cooked medium rare as ordered but came out cold, which likely meant it sat too long before coming to the table. It was decent, but not what I'd expect at this level. My wife's short rib, however, was outstanding -- tender, flavorful, and well-seasoned. Dessert was the highlight of the night. The cheesecake and bread pudding were both excellent and ended the meal on a high note. Overall, I'd give Prime 131 a 2.5/5. The drinks (for me) and desserts were fantastic, and Isabella provided great service, but the food quality and overall execution fell short, especially at a $200 bill. Not sure if we'd return. read more

Went back a second time with family. Phenomenal experience again. The waiters and waitress were very attentive and we had a blast with family from out of town. We love the class of the restaurant while not upholding a strict attire. The place is perfect for both casual and upscale fine dining. Grabbed some of our prior dishes but also got the crab cakes (amazing), olive wagyu (melts in your mouth), and the omakase (includes three speciality rolls). We loved everything from the esthetic presentation of the omakase to the sparklers. Very sad the family did not get to experience the chicken fried lobster since it was out this time. Once again, Prime 131 knocks it out of the park. $3k in food was worth every moment for the family. Lupe did a great job like our last waitress and Shawn the GM was great as always. We plan to be back to try out the KBBQ. Vibe and ambiance was on point! Highly recommended. Thank you for serving us! read more

Service was fantastic. Steak was very nicely done. Starters were superb. Sadly the truffle (which we ordered extra for our large shell ricotta mac and cheese) lacked flavor and the mushrooms were meh. Dessert was fine but not crazy good.

So so glad we were able to celebrate my husband's birthday here. From start to finish everything was amazing. Our server was attentive and had a great recommendations. We started off with cocktails and the espresso martini a was mixed perfectly. We ordered the chicken fried lobster which was just enough for us to have a taste and save room for our main entree.. the porterhouse for 2. The steak was extremely tender and of course we left some to take home for breakfast. The sides were so good and also portioned well for a party of two. There is valet parking $8 which makes it so convenient to get right to your rest without having to figure out parking. read more

The incredible service was probably the biggest takeaway from this experience, particularly our waitress Isabelle. She was so attentive, and didn't miss a single detail from our party's requests. She was so friendly, she joked and laughed with us, and she was present to check on us constantly but without ever interrupting a conversation. This is the first time I've been compelled to write a review about my service experience but she deserves it. She was genuinely nice to talk to and also performed outstandingly at her job. The food was amazing, but I will say, I think their sushi outshines their steak. They had some great wagyu and USDA P choices, and the filet was delicious, but every nigiri item I had was up there with Uchiko's. They have some high grade fish! Lastly the ambience was very cool, there's like a big chain hoist that runs through the dining area which I thought was neat. It is very industrial and the kitchen is open concept and observational in the middle of the dining room. Great restaurant, great food, great Isabelle! read more

We tried Prime 131 for Houston Restaurant Weeks and my whole group LOVED it! The first thing that catches your eye when you walk into the restaurant is the open kitchen layout in the center of the room with a blazing josper grill and hearth. We were mesmerized by the show of watching the grill master (shoutout Chef Ray!) cook steaks from our table. Our server Elmis was amazing; he was very friendly, knowledgeable, easy going, and overall on top of everything. Sometimes steakhouses can have a stuffy, uptight feel but Elmis defied those stereotypes and ensured we had a fun, comfortable dining experience. Since it was our first time dining there, he walked us through the main menu and gave solid recommendations. All courses are full portions (sometimes for HRW, portions are smaller) and at $55, it was a steal. Our table ordered different items so we could share family-style and we loved everything! The favorites of the night were: Lobster Toast, Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes, Parker House Rolls, Roasted Beets, Wagyu Skirt Steak, and Basque Cheesecake. read more
