    We went specifically for the Chateaubriand special for 2. It came with a shared appetizer (we got the Caesar salad), the chateaubriand (sliced into 4 large pieces), 2 sides (we had the lobster Mac & cheese which had an up charge and bacon & cheese potatoes au gratin) and 2 desserts (we chose the Morton’s hot chocolate cake and the cheesecake). It was so much food that we took home some of the sides and all of the desserts. Everything was delicious!

    Our Christmas night experience at Island Prime was excellent! When we arrived, it appeared we would have a long wait even with our reservation. Our wait turned out to be only 10 minutes and that was totally acceptable. Our waiter was friendly, helpful and efficient. Our meals were yummy! I had the filet, and my wife had salmon. The included deserts were tasty. They were small, but that was appropriate after a big meal. We will definitely consider going back for another Christmas dinner at Island Prime!!!

    We finally tried Steak 48 and it definitely lives up to the hype! Had a wonderful Christmas eve early dinner. It was a treat to sit at the bar-James, the bartender was friendly, made excellent drinks & further detailed the menu. We ordered the crisp shrimp appetizer, bone-in rib-eye, bone-in filet & roasted cauliflower. All were fantastic, cooked perfectly/as we ordered & came out sizzling hot. Quality of food is superb, as was the service and ambiance. Can’t wait to come back! Thanks, James & Steak 48!
