Delicious wings
Spencer P.

Came here for the hookah on Saturday night. The parking lot smelled heavily of trash and we were told to seat ourselves. We were eyeing the hookah menu on the table when we were promptly told they didn't have the hookah that day. Highly disappointing .No additional explanation was given and we didn't ask . This place is quaint and has good music both inside and out. The crowd is mostly older (40+) with a few younger ppl sprinkled in. We decided to still stay and give the drinks a try. They must be using below bottom shelf alcohol. The starburst shot we tried tasted like straight unconcentrated juice. We sent them back and were brought gummy bear shots which were less juicy but still not good. We also ordered the "house special" which was a pear margarita. It was drinkable. But again the liquor was definitely not top shelf or even what's normally used at other establishments. The best part was the wings ! Perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned! They came out piping hot with ranch! Delicious! The fries had potential but needed to be cooked a little longer. The seasoning was a little too sweet for me giving them and almost sweet potato taste. Not sure wether we'll return

Prime XO...stop in...they make a great old fashion!! Also...ask for the Cajun chicken plate. They have a nice brunch in Sundays! Check them out! I like this spot. Nice neighborhood vibe. They have an outdoor cigar area...hookah...I like this spot! The owner is a good guy! Wants to make his customers happy! Support local businesses!

This pic is from my 2nd visit. I'm so glad I didn't listen to the bad reviews. When we arrived there were so tables available so we decided to go outside to smoke cigars. I do feel like the music was to loud only because I'm an old lady. We were seated shortly our food came out in 20 minutes and was delicious. The waitress was very attentive and nice. They also had a DJ inside, he was bumping but again too loud. I highly recommend if you wanna spot with a cool Dj, great seafood and a nice patio. This is the place for you.

Cigar and Gumbeaux
Kevin V.

I went to college in the FL Panhandle and am used to eating Creole food. I haven't found a place so authentic with its food, BUT more importantly, it's hospitality. This small family run business is a home away from home for me and a Godsend. Not only did I come here after eating, but my stomach automatically went Super Saiyan when I smelled the food. It's power level was over 9,000 as I consumed one of the best Gumbeaux I've had in over 15 years bringing me back to the good old days. I've eaten at Guy Fieri's recommended locations in multiple states and this one needs to receive his stamp of approval. I was immediately transported to New Orleans for what felt like a decade before awakening from my food coma. Jess was our server and she was the best. The owner & operator, James, was very gracious and personable. I will be revisiting this establishment and pray every Forney resident and passers by do the same!

My first time being here and I most definitely will be coming back. It's a nice establishment and the inside is really nice. They played some older selections of music which was find. The service was ok. I think it can be improved but it wasn't too bad. But the food! Chief kiss. They food was so good. A friend order catfish and grits and I don't even like grits but I did taste and the taste was so good! Will be back!

Cajun Chicken Alfredo

I am a Forney resident and I was excited to see a new restaurant in the area, in addition to a new cigar bar. I came with a my friend & girlfriend and we were seated promptly, the staff was awesome and helpful. We sat outside, since we wanted to smoke some cigars as we waited. Our server, Jess, was amazing! You gotta sit with her. We ended up getting some Gumbeaux (correct spelling) and spicy chicken Alfredo. HOLY SHIT, the food is authentic Creole food. I've been to Louisiana many times and this is some of the best I've ever had. I literally considered going to the bathroom to throw up, just so I could order another round of food to make room for more. So damn good! On top of all this, the owner James came out and chatted with us. Very casual and actually really nice. Loved it! He even gave us a cigar. It was a very nice touch of caring customer service from the top of the restaurant. Small touches like this are noticed by people that care. If you're near Forney or in the area. Do yourself a favor and visit Prime XO.

Receipt

There is nothing upscale, luxurious, or modern about this restaurant! I had a disappointing lunch today at Prime. My expectations were too high! I will return but not to eat maybe sit at the bar and have a drink. I wanted wings but they were out of wings at 12:00pm on a Wednesday afternoon. We ordered a fish plate and a shrimp plate. The fish plate had 2 small strips of catfish filets and seasoned fries that had a weird sweet batter. The tartar sauce was sweet tasting and not good. The shrimp was fried in the same fish batter. I have never seen fish and shrimp fried in the same batter! I don't fry shrimp that way and neither does my Louisiana family! I needed ketchup for the "sweet" fries and the waitress gave me packets. I was not expecting ketchup packets at an "upscale" restaurant. The decor was comprised of fake gas station type flowers on each table. My food was overpriced and not satisfying. The one item that was surprisingly good - Deviled eggs! The waitress gave us the mixer straws for our water. It was weird, not sure if they didn't have regular straws.... Overall, this place was not good but I attribute that to my expectations. I was expecting nicer; however, it's worth a try, go see for yourself, form you're own opinion. I will return but next time I know what to expect.

Banana pudding pancakes

Amazing! The manager, Cookie, seated us and was helpful getting my wife situated with her foot in a cast. Our server was the absolute BOMB! Larissa was just the right amount of attentive and available. The crab cakes were fantastic and spicy. The portions are large, the flavors are larger. Try the banana pudding pancakes and the chicken fried chicken breast. To die for. Nice music selection and atmosphere.

This is the spot to try in Forney. Had a dj there and he was playing all the right jams! Food was good. Music is really loud so if you dont like that then this isn't the place. Nice vibe and drink were great also. Service was excellent!

Nice place off 80. Contrary to their claim, this place is not upscale. It is designed for the mature crowd who's looking for a drama free time. Great music (can be a little loud), great service and the food was delicious!

Diana C.

Food was so good that I didn't even have time to take a pic, I tore everything up! We had appetizers and drinks. Get the deviled eggs and thank me later. If I could give it more than 5 I would!!!

I typically only review food places, butttt I gotta review this one!…read more My fiancé and I were exploring Downtown McKinney for a day and this was our final spot for the night and, let me tell you, it did not disappoint AT ALL! From the moment we walked in, I knew I was going to love it! They were playing Afro beats! My kinda jam! The place was clean, the ambience was right and the seats were comfortable. It vibe just felt right! Considering that it was just two of us and it wasn't like we were going to be spending a ridiculous amount of money (it was already pretty late at night), they were still VERY attentive to us. Taking our order was easy (and there is a bell to push if you want service). The hookah was really good! A guy (who I'm assuming is the owner) came to check on us and we had asked if they could play more Afrobeats, and I know he took our request seriously because, after a little while, they played a number of songs. This made me really happy! Another guy came to check on us and make sure we were okay with everything, especially the Turkish coffee we got (which my fiancé said was good). It's BYOB for a fee (cheaper on weekdays). Overall...we will DEFINITELY be back! Such a great place with great people running the place. Our bill was close to nothing, but they treated us like we were spending a million bucks. We're coming back with a bunch of friends! They deserve our business! Thank you, Amore.

if I can give 0 star review I would for this place . overpriced- chair couch has burned big hole in…read moreit it was very embarrassing and they tell you to get drink from next door and then they charge you 10 to 11$ to bring drink from next door . Prices are wrong and service very bad. server very rude. place is nothing looks like in pictures on website it's broken burned couches and chairs. Please don't take anyone on date or recommend anyone to go to this place. worse hookah place i have ever seen and hookah wasnt good waste of your money.

Excellent turkish restaurant! The food was really good! Service is second to none!…read more I ordered the Grilled Branzino. Please be aware that the Branzino is sea-bass. Sea-bass is served with all of the bones inside the fish. So do not order this for a child! Outside of the bones, the Branzino and salad was delicious. I finished it before I could get a photo. The Oreo cake was pretty delicious too! Decadent chocolate very smooth! I will be going back for the Ali Nazik and Pistachio Cheesecake.

It really bothers me when the price of the drinks and the meal doesn't line up with the quality of…read morethe food and experience. I mean it certainly wasn't bad, but with tax and tip - 2 rounds of drinks shared apps and 2 entrees came out to be $200. I'm just so tired of Bishop Arts District doing this to its customers. Not to mention having to battle the flies inside. The Shepherds Salad was very good but I've had this salad a thousand times before and it tastes the same everywhere I've had it. I will comment positively on the Spicy Ezme dip, that was probably the most ethnic tasting dish we had that evening. The ground walnuts inside really added texture that made it really enjoyable. Everyone agreed that the Fried Cauliflower was maybe the best bite of food, despite it being heavily sauced, however we definitely recommend it. I'm not sure what was up with the Haloummi Cheese. It was a very simple dish but I couldn't get over the fishy taste I had with every bite. My wife's Chicken Adana was flavorful but dry. The rice was meh. The salad it came with just felt like something to fill the plate up with. My Ali Nazik was also ok. The beef tenderloin wasn't very remarkable, it was fine. Not sure how I felt about it drowning in all at Babaganoush but yea again, nothing we ate matched the value of the total bill. I think of Turkish food as street food in the complimentary way, so when you try to sell it to me as something upscale, it should certainly deliver as such, and it just didn't.
