    Lollipop lamb chops
    Micah L.

    Let me start off with I'm not a big steak guy and didnt even get any. I thought the appetizers looked really good so I tried them out. Interesting location for a upscale restaurant. Had a huge parking lot but I also think that's because there's a pizza spot in the main floor. I made reservations, it was pretty busy so I'd recommend it. Beautiful restaurant and service was excellent. I will say the sun was still out and the windows are huge, so depending on where you sit, that could be a bad experience as the sun was all in my face. I tried multiple appetizers and I enjoyed all of them. It was definitely spendy so depending on your budget, this isn't a place I'd eat at often, maybe special occasions.

    My wife and I had a very nice anniversary dinner at Prime. It was nice to find something a bit upscale near where we live instead of having to drive 45 minutes. First, when you walk in, note that Prime is upstairs. The first level is a casual pizza pub. The space is modern but comfortable. Service was incredibly good. They have a nice list of cocktails and we enjoyed our Hemingway Daquiri and Vieux Carre cocktails. It's hard to find the latter in the Twin Cities, especially one well made. We started with the Bread, which is $10. It was good bread, and the accompanying Honey Butter was very good, but I still get really annoyed by this trend of having to pay for bread. We followed that up with the Bone Marrow appetizer. It was very good, and came with nice crispy Ciabatta toasts and an Apricot Jam that didn't have much Apricot flavor but the citric acidity was good for cutting the delicious greasiness of the marrow. My wife had the Scallops appetizer as an entree. With 5 decent sized scallops, it was perfect and she really liked them. She also ordered the Shrimp Scampi side dish ($23), which was the only miss of the night. The Shrimp were cooked perfectly, but were under-seasoned and there was no garlic flavor at all. Despite all the reviews on here implying that Prime has trouble getting meat temperatures right, I ordered the Petite Filet Mignon. It came at a perfect Medium Rare as ordered. It was also nicely seasoned and paired well with the very good Bleu Cheese Fondue add-on ($5). For dessert, we opted for the Whiskey Bread Pudding, even though they offered us a free Molten Lava Cake for our anniversary (the gave us a glass of sparkling wine to share instead). The Bread Pudding was good, but was a little dense and didn't really have any Whiskey notes. All in all, we had a very good meal and would definitely return.

    Oysters on the half shell Lemon, minuet, Tabasco

    After reading other reviews, I went into Prime on Monday night with lowered expectations. I guess that's the way to do it because it way exceeded my expectations and we were very pleased with the food, the drinks, the service, the ambiance, everything that we are already planning to go back. The menu has so many great sounding items that we wanted to try them all. What we enjoyed - Started off with drinks of the Signature Old Fashioned and The Austin Connection. The old fashioned came with a fun Prime stamped craft ice cube. We enjoyed the oysters and crab cakes for appetizers. The minuet was delicious with the oysters and the tarragon aioli was flavorful with the crab cakes. The wedge salad was delicious with the blue cheese dressing and bacon nicely showing up. Seeing the dry age steaks when we entered, we simply had to try the dry aged ribeye and to make it a bit of surf and turf action, we got the shrimp and lobster gnocchi. The dry aged ribeye rib was perfectly cooked to our requested medium rare minus level. I absolutely loved the shrimp and lobster gnocchi - there was ample amount of shrimp and lobster in the dish and the sauce was on point - wonderful. The loaded hash browns were our side dish and they were flavorful with an excellent crisp and an ample quantity. We rounded out the meal with the bread pudding dessert. The sauce and chutney was tasty, but the bread pudding pieces were a little dense and dry for my tastes. That is the one item that I will get differently the next time.

    Finally fine dining in Blaine! Reading some of the menu items I questioned what I would like however all was fabulous. I really enjoyed the scallops and the millionaire potatoes! Person next to me had the wagyu steak and it looked amazing, I almost wanted to ask him for a taste. We walked in without reservations and enjoyed a seat at the bar. Service was great

    Can we agree that if I'm charged 158 bucks for 16 ounces of unembellished beef tenderloin, 5 small dry scallops, and one 4 ounce coffee, I have the right to be picky? Yes? I'll keep it simple. I'm not impressed. Some creds for y'all haters... 1) My elderly mother (it was her 83rd birthday) and I took the small freight elevator to the 2nd floor steak house. That was interesting. We got a personal tour to the back corner of the pizza joint (by the one arcade game) then our beautiful escort "unlocked" the elevator and rode up with us. She was very friendly and wonderful...but not white glove service. 2) Apparently, no one expected us as we popped out of the elevator in the back corner, we wandered around like lost cattle, and we made our way to the front host stand. We waited for what seemed like forever and got mean mugged by some shady folks at the bar. 3) Strange, strange vibes from the bar, BTW. That's the first thing in your face too. There were half a dozen older dudes lurking at the end of the bar. Owners? Local slackers? They stared, furtive glances back & worth, quiet whispers...they looked like geriatric mafioso's, gossiping about the squares coming in to eat. I looked for Tony Soprano but he must have been in the back office. 4) It took forever for our server. First, he was gonna find "her"...then he checked back, still looking for "her"...then, I guess it was just "him", not the missing "her" anymore. Okay, dude, you could have just taken our order the first time, not the fourth trip to our table. I'm just sayin'. 5) He brought coffee, he forgot the cream. The coffee was excellent. 6) Scallops were tiny and dry. The corn cream, sauce, brulee, gravy, slimy whatever was excellent. 7) Two tenderloins, one over-cooked, one under-cooked. The flavor was great, BTW. 8) My mom opened her mouth; she mentioned & rubbed-in the missing cream faux pas. The server apologized and skipped back to our table with 2 tacky gas station style plastic creamers. Really? Now things were getting a little silly. 9) Our server had some curious vibes too. He reminded me of an old biker friend of mine from the 1980s named "Gator". It's like I was back in time, listening to Gator...but he was goofing around, pretending to be a sophisticated English butler by adding extra syllables to every other word. Ya know what I mean? Hey, I love ya, dude. And I'm gonna drop a big tip. But ya gotta keep it real. Using adjectives and verbs with 5 or 6 syllables is just funny. 10) All these things seem so easily fixable but there are so so so so many of them! This has to be management, right? I won't be back. I'm a realist, not a hater. So I'm definitely coming back soon to checkout the pizza place on the first floor! I hear it's great.

    We went to Prime to celebrate my husband's birthday and had a wonderful experience. Our server was Luke and he was charismatic, humorous, and enthusiastic. The restaurant's ambience was nice. It was a bit bright lighting wise that they did not need to have the table lamps. A nice candle on the table would have paired well with the amount of light the restaurant offered. The bright lamp on the table would be a nice touch if they dimmed the restaurant to create more of a romantic/moodier atmosphere. The food was great and cooked to perfect. The crab cakes were meaty. The tomahawk was tender and juicy. The edges were crisp, which is what I prefer. It was just a little saltier than I'd like. If they lessened the amount of salt it would have been 10/10. We opted for the loaded hash browns and they did not disappoint. Since it was my husband's birthday, they offered us a complimentary dessert or choice of desert drink. I did like that they gave an option. We chose the crème brûlée and it was delicious. The portions are large and every dish is shareable. The prices are not terribly expensive for the amount of food you get. All steaks are age dried between 28-60 days depending on the cut (a little lesson from our server) and they will soon serve Kobe beef in the near future. Overall 9/10. I would recommend going and supporting this new business in Blaine

    Steaks were not worth the money. Dry aged steak was very stringy and dry. Sides were okay. Service was exceptionally good.

    Great new restaurant with all the vibes! Service was excellent- Paige took great care of me at the bar for a quick dinner. Hashbrowns and Brussels sprouts were delicious!

    Call ahead and verify things like happy hour at prime. The website says 2-4 Fridays but they arbitrarily decide to not do it for no reason. PS the "sound system" in the pizza bar is worse than the AM radio in a late 80s geo metro... We will try again but they really need to polish up their customer service. Update, the sound system down stairs sounds like a vintage Close and Play. Also the help downstairs knows nothing about the goings on upstairs, again customer service could use a tweaking.

    Dry Aged Ribeye with Blue Cheese Fondue.

    Finally, a great steakhouse in Blaine! I rarely come across a 40+ day dry-aged ribeye, and my wife and I usually have to travel to the Cities for an experience like this. Our server, Cameron, was amazing--he knew every detail of the menu, and his recommendations did not disappoint. On top of that, our server made the experience fun.
