Overall, the place is great! My only complaint is that it can get very busy inside and you are packed in pretty close to other people. The tables are very close together not leaving much privacy between your party and the next. The food is amazing and the staff is top notch.

I took the hubby here for his birthday tonight. When I say they roll out the red carpet, they roll out the red carpet! And I'm talking about every employee in the building. Customer service is impeccable! My husband was presented with an LED balloon at our table. Every wait staff that came to the table wished him a happy birthday! The service hands down was some of the best service we received. Our server Keith, was beyond AMAZING! We ordered the porterhouse steak for two, Cesar salad, mashed baked potato, and lobster Mac n cheese. We also ordered the fried oysters. After the first bite Cesar salad and an oyster, I knew I could mark this as a favorite restaurant. I'm definitely going back, The salad and fried oysters have me sold! Ordered Island Boys for our drinks. It was delicious! I loved the homemade bread. I can eat a basket full! J-Prime is more than just dining, it was an experience! You won't be disappointed! There's a lot I didn't share because you've got to experience it for yourself!

I would rate 7 stars on services if it was available. I felt like anyone who walked by our table was making sure we were ok and bringing us things, and definitely not in an annoying way. Very welcome atmosphere. The food was fantastic and the chief event sent out some caviar on the house to start the appetite.

I definitely recommend eating here! We had phenomenal service (our server was Brandon). The food was delicious. The steak melts in your mouth. The presentation was very nice too. We were celebrating 2 birthdays, and they really wowed us with the dessert! We will be returning here soon.

J Prime came highly recommended by man as it's his favorite steakhouse. This was my first visit, and while the appetizers and drinks were the highlight of the evening, the overall experience had some disappointments. Service- Service was slow to start, as it took a while for our server to attend to us after we were seated. Drinks - Started off with a Tequila Old Fashioned. It was unique and delicious. Ordered the Love Letter cocktail and it was sweet, refreshing, and easily my favorite drink of the night. Appetizers - The lobster bites were absolutely incredible—so addictive I could have ordered another round—and the crab cake was equally delicious. For the main course, I had the ribeye (medium), but unfortunately it fell short. The steak was overcooked, unevenly done, and lacked the melt-in-your-mouth quality I expected for $82. I did order my steak Oscar style which helped me eat it. My steak was also thinner than my boyfriend’s steak, which added to my disappointment. On the bright side, the Rockin Oyster Rockefeller was delicious and beautifully prepared. Au Gratin potatoes were okay. The crab fried rice was delicious. Additionally, we noticed the kitchen prepares a complimentary bite for guests, but our table was skipped, which was disappointing. Dessert - We ended the meal with a fantastic crème brûlée, which redeemed the night. While the appetizers, drinks, and dessert were outstanding, the lackluster steak and inconsistent service didn’t quite match the high-end experience I expected.

From the time you walk in to the time you leave the staff is on point. I was late to my dinner, and I skipped the short line at the host desk. Didn’t realize there was an upstairs. Guy could tell I was lost, and walked me to my table. Server was knowledgeable and friendly. Food was phenomenal and ambience was great. Little loud at times from people taking to loud, but that’s expected. It’s pricey so expect at least 100.00 per person, but worth every penny.

What an amazing experience! We went for the first time on 18 September for my husband's birthday and it was so great! They set up a fun setting on our table with a lit up balloon and a birthday card. Instead of just pointing to where the bathroom was, sometime walked me to it. They had the most delicious gluten free bread! Our food was so freaking good. The service was top notch! They even brought out the most delicious Creme Brule I've ever had! We paid a pretty penny, but so worth it! We can't go often but we will definitely go back!

I had a fantastic experience at JPrime! The service was top-notch—everyone was incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was outstanding. We kicked things off with a charcuterie board that was absolutely delicious, followed by the irresistible Brazilian bread. Both the wedge salad with big chunks of blue cheese and the fresh caprese salad were packed with flavor. For the main course, the filet and New York steak were incredibly tender and cooked to perfection. The truffle fries were crispy and full of flavor, while the asparagus was the perfect balance of crunch and tenderness. To finish, we had a Love Letter shot and the strawberry shortcake flambéed at our table. The shortcake was heavenly—sweet, creamy, and a real showstopper. We also tried two cocktails—the smoky Old Fashioned was rich and smooth, and the Watermelon Fresco was light and refreshing. I highly recommend JPrime for an amazing dining experience with incredible food, drinks, and service!
