Crème Brûlée

Food was 5 . Service was 5 Ambiance was 5 . Everything was amazing, TBH. Unfortunately, I'm bad with names our server was a young female--she was delightful!!! The food was ridiculously amazing!!! Second time here and I must say it's Prime time!!!! Don't be a fool and miss out!!!! Oh, the Spicy Margarita was phenomenal!!! Everything was out of this world!!! Thank you!!!!

Great place to have a drink in Stamford. I enjoyed their lychee martini. They have a gorgeous wrap-around bar with plenty of seating. The restaurant overlooks the water, so you get beautiful views of boats along the docks. There's also a large parking lot, which makes parking a breeze. I've heard the restaurant is usually packed, but it was pretty quiet on a Sunday evening.

Filet Mignon add Lobster

Great steakhouse in Stamford. The Wagyu Filet Mignon was so good it melted in my mouth but had those crunchy burnt bits on the end that were so tasty. I'm an oyster lover and these were the best oysters I've had, very good and very plump. We tried the escargot special and it was amazing! Buttery and in a puff pastry shell. The star for me was the Japanese Cowboy Roll (sushi). Basically a surf n' turf sushi roll, with delicious filet mignon sliced on top. Our waitress was very nice and took care of us, and the manager even swung by when he heard we had a birthday in the party, which was a nice touch. Also, they didn't sing which was appreciated. Expect to spend a bit of money if you come here, but it will be worth it!

Meatballs (wagyu)

Nice place to spend by water. Lots of people arrive in their boats. Good cocktails. Appetizers and Main course choices were good! Really enjoyed the burrata and the Japanese wagyu meatballs. Service friendly and promptly. Definitely will be back!

Returned here after many years for a date tonight and this is simply one of the best restaurants in Stamford. I've lived here full time for a year now (after spending many summers here prior) so I've been trying as much as possible to see what I really like. And Prime is legit. Food, service, ambiance, view. Everything was highly enjoyable. What a great night. We'll be back for Thanksgiving!

Lobster wontons were pretty solid. It was nice and flavorful and it had a nice crispy exterior. It wasn't deep fried so it didn't overpower the taste of the filling. I got the lobster roll and was also very nice. Lobster was super fresh and the sauces accompanied it quite well. It wasn't super heavy and you can really taste the lobster. The fries were meh - weren't the best fries I ever had but it's ok. At least they were crispy and not soggy LOL. My bf got the ny strip and he said it was super tender / melt in your mouth and the cook was spot on. The only thing was it was severely underseasoned. He had to season every piece LMAO. Also, the sauce they provided was on the sweet side which he didnt really like. but other than that, really really solid place.

Duck 3 ways! Outstanding!

The staff was extremely attentive, and the service was great. The vibe is very cool. Decor is a little lacking, but I think it's mainly because I was expecting the same ambience as their Huntington location and they are entirely different. Food was excellent. The stand out dish was definitely the duck. It was incredible! And they gave us a complimentary crème brûlée for our anniversary which I thought was a very nice touch. We came by boat and the dock master was amazing and docking was seamless and easy. Overall an amazing experience and will definitely be back!

I went last night with a colleague for their "reverse happy hour" (best idea ever!). It was our…read morefirst time coming across this restaurant despite living locally. The low light ambiance and music was definitely giving adults-only vibes. What I really liked was being able to talk and hear because the volume level of the music was just right. Our waiter was attentive and would check-in on us from time to time, ensuring our experience was the best. He had quite a friendly and genuine demeanor about him (sorry, I don't remember his name but he wore glasses and had dark hair). The margarita pizza, wine, and desserts (didn't have lava cake so I tried their chocolate mousse) were delightful to indulge. We also received a complimentary drink of choice on the house just because! I will definitely be coming back again and hope to bring other colleagues along for the Quartiere experience.

I had a mixed experience at Quartiere. The staff were friendly and mostly attentive but the food…read morewas hit or miss. We started with some mocktails that were very good and the apple & pear salad that was also good. Our waitress also brought us some complimentary bread and herb butter. All good. But when my entree came it was so disappointing. I ordered the hanger steak cook medium. It was cooked to temp but had to be the chewiest steak Ive ever had. The steak knife wouldnt even cut through it. The knife basically ripped the steak apart. It also came with the largest broccolini I have ever seen. It was basically broccoli but ultimately was under cooked for how large the stalks were. I did try the desserts but they looked good.

We had a great table by the window. The waitperson was gracious. Our group met to discuss an important matter so we were a bit slow ordering. Our food was fantastic. I especially enjoyed my Paella And another diner loved the Brussels Sprout Salad with truffle vinaigrette, and the Beet Salad. My other companion thought the grilled octopus was special. The Albarino we ordered was delicious too. The only downside I can think to mention is the musical journey beginning in the 80s! And we were still able to have our serious conversation.

The atmosphere felt very grown and polished without being overly formal...the kind of place that's lively and stylish but still comfortable enough to relax and hang out. I was surprised by the Spanish stuffed peppers; It was better than I expected, filled with rich, slow-braised oxtail short rib ragu that was incredibly tender, savory, and full of deep flavor. The slight smoky sweetness from the peppers balanced the hearty meat perfectly. Such a unique memorable tapa. Perfect spot for drinks, sharing plates, and a fun night out.
