Great food and great service. High end steakhouse feel with reasonable prices for the quality of food. Very nice place and parking deck is convenient and free for customers. Highly recommend read more

You never know what you are going to get from a hotel restaurant. PrimeTime is a 5 star experience based on its menu and service. Nice atmosphere with many tables. Looks like it might get crowded on weekends or for sporting events. TV's ring the perimeter with lots of choices. We had an excellent Crab Cake BLT with fries and a beautiful piece of Honey Salmon. We ordered the Fresh Rye Bread that hit the spot and finished with good Bread Pudding. Everything was spot on! I have done a review on the College Park Hotel Cambia that houses PrimeTime. It's really a strong 4 **** or 5***** that some have rated a 3 ***. We will stay here again thane next time we visit Bethesda. We will also explore the PrimeTime menu while staying at Cambria. read more

The nautical theme and friendly service make PrimeTime restaurant a fun spot to stop by for lunch. A huge round of thanks to Fatima who waited on us. She was a ray of sunshine and gave us help in deciding on menu items. We both ordered salads. I ordered the crab and shrimp Louis salad. And, my friend ordered a chicken salad. Our salads were huge, fresh, and delicious. I really liked the fresh veggies and poached shrimp. I also liked the surprise sprinkle of Old Bay on my seafood. I wasn't a fan of the crabmeat. The dressing was delicious too. My friend liked her chicken salad. She did say her chicken was a little dry. But, she loved all of the fresh veggies and ended up taking the leftovers home. I also ordered the Oreo cheesecake which was delicious. I mean come on now, you combine Oreo's and cheesecake, that is a winning combination and the whipped cream was amazing. The restaurant itself was bright, colorful, and full of sea themed decor. The booth was comfortable and you get 3 hours of free parking in the garage. Again, thanks Fatima for your excellent service. We will definitely be back. read more

The food is good but not worth the price. Wierd location and not great parking. It's located in a hotel lobby. They do not serve breakfast, the most important meal that hotel guests are looking for... however you can charge the tab to your room which is nice. The place is clean and nice. The staff is very friendly except for Shannon. Good luck if Shannon is your bartender she has no level of professionalism, patience, or class. read more

This place has an old school Cheers vibe. The bartenders are great, but theres never a lot of people here when I stop by. The ambience is nice and I love that you can access it from the street and not just by going inside of the hotel. The drinks are great but the menu has changed since my last visit. There may be a new chef due to menu changes, but I'm not sure. The fries are great, they have a different shape and are great for scooping. Sometimes this place can be unbearable to sit in due to the AC being high. If you want a quiet spot this may be it. The menu can be a bit better in my opinion. But I will return for drinks until they bring back my dish and that included ,shrimp with wild rice, can't remember the name of it. But if you like Grillmarx /Joe Theismans then you're probably going to enjoy this spot. The lady at the bar is great, and you can sorta tell that she loves what she does. read more

Brunch Review. Invited some friends to join me for brunch one weekend. I wanted to check the place out. It is located in the Cambria Hotel with access to a shared parking garage out back. The restaurant will comp your first 3 hours of parking - anything after may cost you about $10 per hour on a weekend. I started off with the Iced Vanilla Latte. It was a bit stronger to the coffee taste than I would have liked, so I asked for more syrup to be added, and it was perfect. I loved it. For my meal, I got the Crab Cake BLT. It is served on a brioche with chipotle ranch with fries on the side. The crab cake was plump (in size), and the bread was slightly toasted. Great combination. Seasoned well. The service was on point, and I'll certainly go back to try some other things on the menu. I'll just be more conscious of my time and stay under 3 hours. If you spend time chatting like I did, the hours can run away from you. Nice spot. read more

So many options for dining out in College Park! I love this for my college town! Slightly jealous because we definitely didn't have this back in my day. Met some Yelp friends for an end of summer brunch. They're on the first floor of the Cambria Hotel. Parking is convenient in the garage (free up to 3 hours). The vibe is chill. There's tons of TV screens in the main dining area and the bar. It was a Sunday so the football games were on. Follow their IG (@primetimecollegepark) for updates! Our server, Enzo was great. He kept checking on us and was very friendly. I enjoyed the tropical mimosas. There's not a bottomless option. For my entree, I got the steak and eggs which came with potatoes. I asked for hot sauce, which was tabasco (not hot at all). I still enjoyed my meal.. I will visit again for happy hour! read more

Mediocre to below average. The prices seemed too high given the lack of Flavor in many of the dishes. Also, the specialty cocktails (especially the super sour Route One Rickey) had an unbalanced flavor profile. I started with the calamari. I wish I didn't. More than half the plate was battered and fried peppers and not squid. (See the sad photos I posted). The appetizer lacked any semblance of seasoning. The dipping sauces were okay, but not enough to overcome the bland squid. The Brussels sprouts were the only bright point. They are a tad spicy, but good. The fish and chips were an overpriced ($28) greasy mess. Bland is an adjective that will get a workout in this place. On the bright side, they were hot and fresh. The salads were just salads. Take my review with a grain of salt because I did not try the steaks, chicken, or pork dishes (since I eat a pescatarian diet). Folks seemed to enjoy the steaks and the stingy portions of wings. Check the prices because they seemed too high for the lack of flavor and overall quality. At least the parking is validated (I hope, since I am writing this from inside). The service was excellent, along with reasonable wait times. Also, the environment was indistinguishable from any other random hotel sports bar. For some reason the bar area's A/C was set to ice cold and high fan. Also, it smelled of maple syrup (presumably from the brunch, although I came for dinner). Come check it out for yourself, but it is a solid pass for me. Leaving still hungry, upset with the waste of money, but lesson learned. read more

Swung by for happy hour a couple times and the spot is quite nice! It took over the old CP Grill space that used to be in the Cambria hotel. Think of them as a bit of an upscale sports bar. There are images up everywhere depicting various sports and the layout has a different vibe in almost every area. The area around the bar is mostly booths, while the middle is more of your standard tables -- and there's a classic long dinner table in the back room! You've got classics like calamari, brussel sprouts, and jumbo pretzels. But you can also find some upgrades like ahi tuna nachos and cheesesteak egg rolls. For happy hour, I sat at the bar and enjoyed various items like the first ones I mentioned... though it looks like the menu might've changed since then. But guess what -- they were delicious! I also decided to have a smoking sideline... their take on an old fashioned that's extra smoky. It's a welcome addition to College Park and I think it'd be a nice date spot or happy hour spot. I'll be back -- and the 3 hour parking validation is much appreciated -- that's an expensive garage! read more

Pretty mediocre experience on a Sunday afternoon. They don't really have a brunch menu but have breakfast and dinner options. It's located inside the Cambria Hotel and validates parking, which is big perk for the area. I had the crab cake BLT and it was too much breading in the crab cake for my taste, but the home fries it came with were unique and good. Others at the table had the catfish BLT and the French toast. Overall, most of the dishes lacked flavor. Service was attentive at the beginning but hard to find during the checkout process. There are enough good restaurants in the area that I likely won't return, but this is a restaurant that could satisfy a large group with diverse types of palettes. read more

*New Restaurant Alert* It's a 5 for me after visit #2. Located inside the College Park Cambria Hotel, as far as casual dining goes, it doesn't get better than this. First time out, we kicked it at the bar and ate light. Second time out, we dined at a booth and ate a traditional dinner. Both experiences were on POINT! When you come, get the crab dip, crab topped salmon, and the short rib is mouth watering. The charbroiled oysters looks like their straight from New Orleans, however, it's missing a little something so the flavor is just OK :(. Service was outstanding both visits and last time out, we got free dessert just because. Now that's great business and an awesome gesture. There's tons of free parking in the rear with a validated ticket. That's always a nice touch! Prime Time is on the same level as Burton's with a perfect menu, which has something for everyone's palate. If you're looking for a new dining experience with a great atmosphere, definitely come to Prime Time, it's worth the trip!! read more

I am not sure what the wait was but if College Park continues to get more semi high end restaurants, Baltimore ave (Route 1) into D.C. will not be necessary. My honey and I made our way to Prime Time and I'm sure glad we did. It gives Grill M, down the street a run for their money. Ambiance is casual but I could see upscale if you were celebrating. It's dimly lit and giving upscale vibes. Charbroiled Oysters: Met expectations could have used a little more seasoning. Crab Dip: Exceeded Expectations- a must order menu item. Bucatini and Meatballs: Met expectations could have used a splash more of seasoning but edible! A little salt shaker did the trick. Bartenders were AMAZING and so polite! Free parking validation for 3 hours! Running this back and quick! I recommend, thank me later! read more

Service was great, John was on point. The food was tasty. We ended up coming for lunch. Unfortunately, the calamari was not available, but I opted for the cheesesteak egg rolls as our appetizer. They were OK. I like that there is a sauce that comes with them, they just miss the mark a bit with the seasoning. For my entrée I had the crabcake with truffle fries. My friend had the blackjack burger. They thoroughly enjoyed their burger, I enjoyed my sandwich as well. The truffle fries were a bit greasy, but they were decent. We came here for a quick birthday lunch, and I must say that the banana pudding was spectacular. I was pleasantly surprised and we both really, really, enjoyed it. Overall, I certainly recommend this place. We enjoyed our meal and the ambience was comfortable. The facilities are clean and the bar area is nice. There are plenty of TVs and the entire restaurant feels spacious. I see that this is a pretty popular spot for brunch as well so I look forward to trying them out then too. read more

Food was decent but overpriced, a quarter rotisserie chicken and mashed potatoes shouldn't cost $26. They should have been embarrassed to serve the smallest sliver of pie for $13, and the chocolate cheesecake wasn't even cheesecake. Don't think this place will be in business a year from now with their outrageous prices. We won't be going back. read more

Visited after a game on campus and had a great experience. Ate at the bar, the bartenders were super friendly and on top of everything. Had a nice postgame crowd, was very chill, just a great atmosphere about it. Plenty of TVs tuned to the nights various games. Ordered the Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes and they were excellent. They are market rate, so if you're watching your wallet be sure to ask ahead of time on the price, but I thought they made for a great celebratory postgame meal. Highly recommend if you want something a little upscale but not pretentious. read more

PrimeTime Restaurant - Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes with fries and slaw. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - College Park, Maryland

5 stars all around!!! Visiting town and in search of excellent cuisine. Found it! We sat at the bar, which was a great decision because our bartender Nick not only made THE BEST Old Fashions but he also provided great service! Food: another Yelper said this and I second the suggestion, get the artichoke crab dip! French Onion soup is in our top 3 best ever. Now let's talk about that G.O.A.T. The filet!!! Medium rare and absolutely just melted in your mouth. Wow. Just wow. The bucatini and meatballs - so good with a super fresh tasting sauce AND the meatballs actually had flavor (I've had some boring meatballs). And finally, can we talk about that grilled broccoli with feta and yogurt sauce? Perfectly cooked, crisp and fresh grilled broccoli paired with the salty goodness of feta. Bangin' veggies!! We skipped dessert tonight but the next time we are in town we will try to save room for it! We found this restaurant through the great folks on Yelp while we were staying at Cherry Hill RV resort. This is a quick 10-15 minute drive and so easy to find. It's a sports bar with a classy upscale vibe. Also - really good music choices! Hall and Oats to Vance Joy to Caamp to Hozier. read more

This is a quit amazing restaurant in College Park. Chef Mike Wesley put his arms around this place and made every dish his own. I've been 3 times and always had an amazing experience. Mike the waiter is professional and attentive. I go to a ton of Maryland baseball games and this is my favorite place to grab a bite before the game. Go here you will love it! read more

I was so excited to take my family to this new restaurant just outside UM. After 36 minutes wait for appetizers and 45 minute wait for food we were exhausted. We explained to the female manager about the wait and said there is no way for them to know how long we waited for our order. We seen people who came after us get their food way before us eat and get the check. What a slap in the face when the manager she told us we were wrong with her hands in her pocket. The nashville hot taste like honey bbq. Calamari has so little in it but alot of red peppers. The proprtions are way off. Again manager said there is no way to check when order was put in. Lies. Her hand was in her pocket while talking to us her attitude made it worst a experience for everyone. This place sucks. The potatoes are the only item that taste good wat a rip off the prices they are asking. At this rate manager is going to take this place to the ground. We still tip more than 10 percent for our bill $5.00 They took off the steak and potatoes because they spilled water on it so they had to remake it but this time it took only 12 minutes. They also gave us 15 percent off because we waited 46 plus minutes to get our food we took it to go because we were late for a sports competition. Sunday July 20 4pm I will not be coming again. Food: 1.9/5 | Service: 1.5/5 | Atmosphere: 3.3/5 read more

New college park addition, replacing the restaurant that didn't make the cut. It's now a sports bar and a nice one at that. Local beer, nice wine selections. You can get out of there for under 50 bucks. The wife had the steak and cheese sandwich that she had to take home. The crab dip was good,l had a cheeseburger which was not that great underwhelming at best. The fries were hot and tasty however. The new owner is out of NY city and has restaurants in that city. So we will see if he can make it here. Many have tried. I hope he is successful. I will be back. Service was good as well read more

Went for Happy Hour and it did not disappoint! We spilt three appetizers amongst 3 people and had a good share of each plate.

PrimeTime Restaurant - Sesame Crusted Ahi Tuna Bowl - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - College Park, Maryland

Went to the restaurant today for dinner with the family. We had reservations and were seated quickly. Our server was attentive without being overbearing. She was very pleasant and patient. Food was delicious and came out quickly. Apps were generous for our family of four and i had to take the rest of my tuna entree home. Dessert was good although not something that I would need to get again. I had the strawberry shortcake. I was hoping for apple pie and ice cream or key lime pie but neither was offered on the menu. They validate parking at the garage across the street which is a nice touch. read more

i did take out and now i wish i can comeback to eat in person. salad was very fresh; i ordered a side of grilled chicken and it was grilled perfectly and still warm when i got my food to eat on the way to the airport. also got the bisque, was creamy, could probably use more corn and potato to make less starchy filling but flavor is there read more
