A new favorite for fine dining in Stamford! We came to check out their gingerbread houses and enjoy a festive date night. Prime went above and beyond! Their wait staff was attentive and pleasant all evening, even cleaning the table between courses. My husband’s steak was cooked perfectly, and we were impressed to find they even had sushi on the menu! The mac and cheese was also a highlight. We couldn’t get over how decadent their hot chocolate was! This spot was such a treat, and we really want to come back in the daytime to enjoy the waterfront views.

What a beautiful experience. I tend to go to other restaurants in this area but we decided to splurge for our anniversary. The staff were very attentive. The food was excellent. We ordered the ceviche, filet mignon, New York strip, whipped potatoes, broccoli, jalapeño margarita and limoncello spritz. My only issue was I ordered my filet mignon medium and it was closer to medium well. My husband prefers medium well so he enjoyed his own New York strip and some of my filet.
The location is gorgeous. We sat by the window and watched the boats coming and going. If you choose to eat here, just be aware that with excellent service, food and atmosphere comes a higher price.

Update: Did not accept gift card. Was extremely rude and nasty about it arguing that “I don’t know who lied to you” after we called and asked if we can use it. What a business killer over $25 when I’m already over paying double that for sushi. What a shame.

Dined here on my birthday. First off, the staff is extremely great and friendly. The bartenders were nice and our server was very sweet. The manager came out and greeted us multiple times.

The food does all the talking too. Arguably the best octopus we’ve ever had! Can’t go wrong with the beef Wellington or paella.

We had such an excellent and positive experience, we’re surprised it’s not as popular.

I’m super grateful to Restaurant Prime in Stamford for accommodating such a large reservation—especially on such short notice. I was visiting town to celebrate my two cousins’ graduations and wanted to treat them somewhere nice. I couldn’t believe how much Stamford has changed! I loved seeing all the new restaurant options available—it’s definitely become a fun spot for dining out.

We had originally planned to go to Sign of the Whale, but without a reservation, they couldn’t seat us. Luckily, we ended up at Prime—and it worked out perfectly. What started as a group of 10 quickly turned into 14, and the staff didn’t miss a beat. The service was fantastic, and brunch was absolutely delicious. Everyone enjoyed their meals and drinks, and we had a beautiful time reminiscing and celebrating together.

To top it off, they had a live band playing during brunch, and the music was phenomenal—it really elevated the vibe and made the celebration feel extra special.

The restaurant was very accommodating, and our server was such a standout—attentive, friendly, and on point the entire time. I actually nicknamed him The Golden Boy because he handled our big, ever-changing group like a pro. Big shoutout to him for helping make the day so enjoyable!

The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was due to the water situation. Without asking, they began serving Saratoga bottled water, and with a group our size, I feel like they should’ve checked first or defaulted to tap. Especially since everyone was drinking alcohol and barely even touching their water. As someone who dines out often, I caught it quickly and asked the server how many bottles had already been served so we could stop it before it got excessive.

Aside from that, it’s a great restaurant with amazing food, live music, top-tier service, and a beautiful view.

One of the most consistent restaurants. You always know what you will get is solid. All staff always are super happy and the view is amazing no matter what.
A bit steep on the prices, you will always be a bit shocked when getting the bill and your drive through a rough neighborhood to get there. Other than that no complaints

Food was delicious, the entire staff was amazing!!! I’m a bit of a picky eater and I don’t eat steak so I was banking on the daily special. Great gamble I got the lobster ravioli, lobster bisque and the brussel sprouts-all DELICIOUS!!!!! They also kept the bday cake while we enjoyed dinner and brought it out at the perfect time to sing happy bday to the guest of honor, they even cut the cake for us.

Fab bar and restaurant on the harbor. Great views. Tables are outside in warmer weather. Ample parking.

Jimmy, the manager, was welcoming and engaging. Service was impeccable. Our steaks were cooked to perfection. Mushroom side was generous and buttery. Excellent bread selection and onion soup was one of the best we ever had. Can’t wait to try this place for brunch.

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.

5 stars all across! Best food and attention you can get. The water view is amazing. The outside seating in the warm season is a must-do.
The only thing missing is the bands like in previous years
