    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small and intimate place with lovely charm located along a Main Street in a quaint waterfront town.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking could be an issue. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's outdoor seating (small area on the sidewalk), indoor bar with about 10-12 seats, and a small dining area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very chill and relaxed vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Menu has great selection of food. Not just seafood options, but also non seafood available as well. We only came in for drinks and sat at the bar. Several groups ordered dinner and what came out looked good. Especially the desserts! Ordered a lemon drop martini and a Sidecar and both were lovely. It was a bit busy so service was super fast, but that's to be expected in a small restaurant where people at the bar are eating full meals and there's one bartender for the entire place. The staff were super friendly. Would come again and try dinner for sure!! Great space to come for just a cocktail or a nice meal.

    Dinner at Prime 225 was mostly hits. The wine selection was great for pairing with the meal, but the steak was just okay. The Brussels sprouts were the true star, followed closely by the delightful beignets. The lobster and crab dish was massive and as delicious as it was impressive- definitely expect leftovers. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place has a small and intimate charm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Just a heads up, parking can be tough, so I recommend getting there early on a Friday or Saturday and enjoying a pre-dinner walk.

    Table set up and martini!

    One of the best steaks I've ever had in my life--perfectly tender, buttery, and absolutely phenomenal. We ordered the porterhouse for two, shared a bottle of wine, and everything about the experience was amazing. The service was great and very friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is quaint and intimate, so I would definitely recommend making a reservation.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]We usually prefer sitting at the bar, but this was a place we truly enjoyed dining at a table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    One of my favorite places. Walked in with no reservation and Frank made it happen on a Friday Night. He's the best! All the food came out with the best timing and cooked perfectly. The drinks are always great too. Such a great date night spot. Very calm ambiance for a date night!

    Ask the Community - Prime 225

    Do they have any specials currently (Jan 2023)?

    Any Friday night specials? Also, do you accept reservations?

    I've always made a reservation for here. I've been before on a Friday when they did have specials. I've also been on the weekend when they did not have any specials (it might depend on the season).

    Does anyone know what are the hours and/or specials for happy hour?

    Mondays at the bar there are buck-a-shuck oysters, and half priced bar menu! Tuesdays we are featuring two "pre fix" menus, with four courses (appetizer, salad, entree and dessert) for $100. It's a full Prime experience for a great price. Come check… 

    Does anyone know what the price range of these dishes are? It's not posted on their website

    $10 will start you off with appetizers and dinners can go up into the $60 dollar range. Most things are al la cart. Dinner for two with dessert and drinks can easily be $150 but it is definitely worth it. The food is amazing.

    Do they have draft beer available?

    Yes, and a full service bar.

    First time back at Schaefer's this season on a perfect Saturday afternoon---sunny and temps in the…read morehigh 70s. With plenty of outside seating and perfect views of all the boating action on the canal Schaefer's is the perfect spot for an early dinner. While the place is always busy, especially when the weather is nice, we were seated within 15 minutes---just enough time to order a few drinks from the large outside bar. Our server was exceptional given the number of tables he seemed to be handling as he stopped at our table frequently between trips to other tables and getting orders in. I think it was great he had help---our appetizers and food were brought to the table by another staff allowing our server to focus on taking orders and getting them to the kitchen---a very well run restaurant! We had the Fresh Berries & Greens salad---Served with honey raspberry dressing, gorgonzola cheese, mandarin oranges and toasted almonds. Portion was on the larger size and worth the price. Also tried one of their specials for the day--a Mediterranean garlic chicken flatbread and it was baked to a crispy crust and topped with a balsamic glaze. Highly recommend if you see it on the menu. While we waited for our dinners we sipped on a couple glasses of red blend and enjoyed their Chips & Salsa which included Tortilla chips served with tomato and mango salsa and guacamole. Chips were fresh, the mango salsa had a nice kick, and the guac was tasty and not bland. An appetizer very much worth trying! Lastly, if you go on Saturday's during the summer there will be live entertainment....sound was just about right for an outdoor venue.

    Nice place on the water under a spectacular scary bridge. This place is one the locals love so…read morelet's see what we thought. My lobster, shrimp, crab and asparagus soup was nice with every spoonful being a different bisque. My crab melt was, meh. Backfin crab, that didn't resemble crab imperial, too many shell fragments in addition to filler, an invisible slice of tomato and a very dense pretzel roll made for a very mediocre experience. A companion had coconut shrimp, which he liked. Another had a crabcake, which like mine was backfin meat with a lot of filler. She was unimpressed. Another had crab tacos, which she said were "fine". She also had sweet potato fries with a marshmallow dipping sauce. Do I need to rate that? (Our friends are from coastal Maryland and they were convinced we were not eating Maryland crab.) The restaurant is large with water views and clean bathrooms. Lastly, the service: Sophia was 10 out of 5. Checked on us often, went to lengths to ensure she got our orders right, and was a delight to interact with...and her pen collection was impressive, both for me and the mechanical engineer in our party. We all wish you well with the remainder of your education. All in all was just okay for $180 for lunch for four, including tip, with no alcohol.

On one hand I want to try again for dinner but for the price, I'm not sure it's worth it. Pros: Amazing service - very attentive server(s); we had one in training/shadowing and she was just as good as our primary server, offering refills, clearing plates, overall greet banter Cocktails are fantastic - had the Minnie Ripperton and loved it - creamy yet refreshing and bright which is a tough combo to achieve Cons: Hidden entrance - after circling what looked like an abandoned building 2x we finally figured out the entrance was in the backy and down a set of stairs. I now understand the "speakeasy vibe" but the clutter in the front made the building look abandoned or under construction; not a great start to the experience for us Food service - the other couple we were dining with got their entrees about 10 minutes before ours and we were some of the first orders & diners of the day. Usually you might hold the whole table or refire some of the dishes so it all comes out at the same time. They finished theirs before we even got our to start, making it a strange eating experience Small print menu - with the low light of the speakeasy, the menu had the teeeeniest print I've ever seen making it very difficult to read the menu options. We also didn't realize that the menu changes/is seasonal (not called out on the website) so many of the items we had wanted to try were not an available option. I love a menu that changes but hope it's indicated on the website (aka: sample menu, subject to seasonal change) Hit-n-miss: Fried chicken Benedict- huge portions, amazing biscuits and perfectly poached (but unseasoned?) eggs. I don't know if the hollandaise soaked into the fried chicken or never existed at all - and that's the thing you want with a Benedict. If it existed, it never reached the biscuits because while they were good, but were completely dry Shrimp and grits - perfectly cooked, great consistency, but very under-seasoned Water - just an observation and maybe it's just the local tap water flavor but it tasted off or as off the soap hadn't been washed from the glasses Pro Tip: be aware of the automatic gratuity in some circumstances; if you don't know, check the website before your meal!

As we walked through the restaurant to our table, I couldn't keep my eyes off the artwork displayed (they have an affection for peacocks). Our server Tiarra had the brightest smile and warmest spirit all evening. Our bread and drinks didn't take long to come out, and our entrees came not too long afterward. The Pinot Noir was smooth. My ribeye was juicy, jam-packed with flavor, and cutting it was like cutting butter. The fried green tomatoes were a great choice as well. My mom truly enjoyed her evening, and we'll certainly be making our way back.

My mistake; expecting hot food these days is a distant memory. I mean they tried but had no idea, I guess. Plates were not warmed; an order of bbq ribs was also barely warm. I know steak is supposed to be served hot on hot plates but whatever. The sides were delicious; mashed potato, grilled asparagus, mac n cheese. The oysters in the app mix plate were average at best, but overall it was an exciting appetizer for a party we were having. The mashed potatoes were more exciting in appearance than the decor, which was bland as vanilla pudding. If this is vying to be a premier steak house like Del Frisco or Ruth's Chris, a long way to go. Didn 't feel very posh except for the bill at the end.
