Bourbon Prime

Nice Bar and Grill within the Marriott on the waterfront. Always good drinks and tasty bites. They focus on Bourbon and have good prime beef. Affordable and a spectacular view of the river. I’d stay away from the flaming havarti but the burger (double with double cheeseburgers and bacon), the fries, the prime dip, the salads and the steaks were all phenomenal.

We attended their Thanksgiving buffet. First the staff was pleasant and our waitress was attentive removing plates and checking on us. I have worked in food service and as an event planner for large upscale events and I have to say the buffet was disappointing. First, they only had one meat option, turkey breast. No ham in site. I was told they would have an optional prime rib and steak carving station for an additional $60 on top of the $42 for just the turkey buffet. We were not asked if we wanted the beef option when we sat down and then saw a sign on a pillar at the buffet that the beef was not available till after 4pm. The buffet items were somewhat traditional, salad, mashed potatoes, runny gravy, cornbread dressing, diced root vegetables with kale, green been casserole, assorted rolls, broccoli cheddar soup and desserts. All the food was cold and dried out when we made our first two passes. As for the flavor, it was not anything worth the price. I had one spoonfull of everything and ended up only eating the vegetables and turkey. The turkey was okay but they acted like it was gold for they only gave one thin slice of turkey at a time. 🙄 I am sure they wanted you to fill up on the other food items but the turkey was the only half decent tasting thing on the whole buffet. I should say the spiced cranberry jam was tasty. The plates were dirty with bits of food stuck on them and people were stacking them to one side but they were not cleared quickly. Never would that be acceptable in any situation for a supposedly higher end restaurant. One final thing is they did not inform us that a 20% gratuity would be added to the check. I can understand if it is a large party but we were three people. I don't appreciate being held hostage for a tip when our waitress only did what was customary service.

The Thanksgiving buffet experience was disappointing due to several shortcomings. The limited options and exorbitant prices, primarily for what amounted to deli turkey and no other meat options, were not justified. Furthermore, the service charge of 20% was not disclosed until the bill was presented. The wait for drinks and refills was excessively long, and the plate clearing process was inefficient. Additionally, the servers’ lack of teamwork was evident and the majority of the staff unfriendly and unprofessional.

Went on a date night with my wife. We both ordered medium steaks. Hers came our great, mine not so much. Mine came out Well. No pink. Not what you want when you spent $40 on it. Our server was great though. Corrected the issue with minimal wait. Those tacos for the appetizer were great. We had the apples not added which I think was for the better. The original wait for the main dishes did take around 30 minutes. But it may have been due to the work rush/ party they had. Finding a good steak has been hard in Morgantown.

Went here for my anniversary, surprisingly no one else was in there. Hostess was nice, asked if we were celebrating anything and I said it was our anniversary. She said she’d tell our server, but he never mentioned it. Service in all wasn’t great and food felt as if it has been reheated. They were out of several ingredients, we had ordered the steak frites. Disappointing experience.

We absolutely love Bourbon Prime and always bring guests to dine here whenever possible. I’ve had the best Tomahawk here, delicious French Onion Soup, the best French Fries I have ever had, and tonight I had the Chicken Cordon Bleu, and THAT was the best I’ve ever had. Oh, and the crème brûlées here are fantastic! 😋 Service is always great. Tonight we were fortunate to have Rose take care of us. She was so kind and friendly, and put up with us very well (lol).

Chef Nate Meadows is the real deal. Ask for the chef’s recommendation for your ENTIRE MEAL. You will not be disappointed. Never had anything less than a 5⭐️ experience here.

Total chaos, bad service waited for 30 minutes for a glass of water. A crowd had them melting down. Texas Roadhouse has a better steak, for the extremely high prices you expect better quality and service than what they are selling. And you are almost sitting in the hotel lobby eating dinner. Seems they depend on travelers in the hotel to take advantage of as they don’t want to leave the hotel to venture out. Enter at your own risk……

Modern, comfortable ambience with high ceilings in the Marriott Hotel. Ordered Mushroom Streudel (Strudel), which had a delicious sauce, and was served with asparagus. Excellent dish with a beautifully flakey crust, prepared perfectly. The Streak Frites were also delicious, as I got to sample a bite of that. Pepperoni Rolls made for a delicious appetite. This came with tomato-based dipping sauce. Good service.

08.27.24 Wife and I live in South MD and we had a free night to use at Marriott so we did some research and found a festival in Elkins so we figured we stop and stay here at the Marriott use our free night then go to Elkins the next morning. When checking in I saw the restaurant, I went online after getting in our room to find a place to eat. I was looking over places on Yelp and came across this restaurant after looking it up I finally noticed it was the one in the hotel. We sat at the bar, it was around 6 and the restaurant was fairly busy. The bartenders were very quick ask what we wanted to drink and if we were eating at the bar. I ordered an old fashion wife had tea, for dinner wife had a salad with grilled chicken and I had the chicken carbonara. Wife said the house dressing on the salad was very good and the carbonara was very good also. 08.28.24 This morning we had free breakfast so we decided to give it a try before heading down the road. We were seated at a table looking at the river very nice we went up to the buffet and after opening up the cover I was extremely disappointed, the sausage gravy had yellowing on the top of the gravy and no biscuits the next one was a wrap with eggs cheese tomatoes and spinach the next was bacon soaked in grease and sausage that looked over microwaved and then finally the eggs let's just say they were so over cooked nothing would have made them good. They wouldn't let us order off the menu said we would have to pay. We are platinum very close to titanium, we couldn't have breakfast in the M Club because they have it closed on the weekends we were told that people staying for football games and other events bring in people that don't belong. Only 1 extra person allowed with the card holder I don't understand if the person working in the room allows more than one extra person then they should get a warning the first time and fired the next. I surely would not recommend spending your money on this buffet. This is extremely disappointing for a Marriott I've had better breakfast at SpringHill suites.

We came for Valentine's Day and had the most amazing time! We were greeted by the manager and our waitress, Ashley, even called ahead of time to make sure that we liked the specialty menu. It was phenomenal! The specialty menu was perfectly done and Ashley had such great conversation. Everything came out so quickly! I don't usually like steak but decided to be adventurous and wasn't let down at all. Perfectly cooked. Every course was solid and the ambiance was perfect. Everything was clean and we genuinely had no complaints. For an elegant 3-course meal, the price was outstanding. It was less than $200 with cocktails and tip included. We plan on coming back soon!

The Marriott riverfront is a delightful place to stay and the restaurant is good to great. I had both breakfast and dinner here. Breakfast buffet was plentiful in choices, mediocre in quality. Eggs and bacon were perfect and it's a better deal to go the buffet route if that's what you want. Fruit selection was excellent on the two days we tried the buffet. Coffee was very good! Dinner was good, not outstanding. The burrata cheese appetizer was exquisite. Warm, tasty, fresh! I also had the Hemingway daiquiri- it was very good, in fact I had two! Their bread was delicious, too!!! In our group for dinner we had steak, garden salad, Caesar salad, burger, chicken fingers for kids. All good but not the best I've had. I'm sure I would come back, but there are other tasty places to try first!

Pollo and chorizo tacos had great flavor. Much tastier than they look. They carry Cholula hot sauce which really topped off the tacos. The Bison meatloaf was also really good. Nice clean environment. They have a large selection of bourbons and whiskey. 7 craft beers on tap. See my pics.

The bourbon list is amazing and food is awesome. You need to try the pepperoni roll appetizer that they put a person touch to.

Overall, this was a lovely dinner. However, it is quite pricey for what you get. I had the chicken cordon bleu, it was good but nothing special in my opinion. The steak was cooked perfectly and paired well with the sides. Our waitress was very sweet and attentive.

Jumping right into--get the prime dip sandwich. It was DELICIOUS and yes, I was depressed when I finished it because I wanted more! The house salad and fries, just as good. I didn't taste the pepperoni knots, but got a thumbs up from my family. The service was great, the ambience fantastic, and the skillset of the chiefs and bartenders is amazing. Thank you for a great meal and a great experience!

This had to be one of the bigger disappointments this year for dining experiences. I was convinced this was a good steakhouse based on recommendations from several colleagues who had been here last year around the same time. I am certain the decline can be attributed to current management. First of all, the restaurant ran out of their signature ribeye. Secondly, two of us ordered the strip and the other ordered the filet. All of the steaks arrived over cooked. The filet was the worst. A medium rare request that was well-done. My strip was medium well. When we finally were visited by the manager, he tried to convince us that it was "close" to the temperature we ordered but agreed to replace them. By the time this happened, over an hour and a half later, they only had filets remaining. The replacements were also served medium well. Tragic what was done to those cuts. The whipped mashed potatoes were dried out as if they had been sitting under heat lamps for quite awhile. The bright spot were the smoked old-fashions. Spectacular. Bartender is trying to single handedly save this restaurant. The manager is not qualified to run this restaurant and they need to fire the cook immediately so they can both work on their resumes for an alternative career. I spoke to people at other tables and they reported the same issues. This is not an inexpensive restaurant but would be similar cost to high end steakhouses in major cities. So, if the quality was there, it would be acceptable to charge $50-$60 for a steak, but these were reduced to a steak buffet quality. I feel very sorry for the servers who have to navigate the management minefield.

We arrived close to closing time and requested a quiet table. The staff were welcoming. The menu had a variety of good choices. I ordered the mushroom strudel. It was great. I would recommend this restaurant.

Terrible management. I place a half dozen calls to make a reservation and got one returned call from a person who said" oh, I got your messages but I don't take reservations, someone will call you tomorrow." Tomorrow was 8 days ago and still no interest in my business for a party of four. Don't waste your time. No help, no service . They will be OOB soon. They should have zero stars not one.

We ordered a NY strip and a filet mignon. Both came overcooked. We had to send it back. Our waitress took the steaks and just left the sides on our plate. 20 min later, she came back with some slightly less overcooked steaks but still not what we asked for (we ordered medium rare). By this time our sides were cold and we were too lazy to send back these cooked and oversalted steaks. Everything was nice up until the main course. If you like well done steaks then this is your place. We asked for medium-rare.

BP Pepperoni Roll $8 pepperoni, cheese blend, green onion, signature dipping sauce *first time ever having a pepperoni roll and it was very chewy, the dough seemed overcooked and undercooked at the same time, the dipping sauce was very thin Southern Cobb Salad $13 fried green tomato, grilled chicken, sweet corn, bacon, hard boiled egg, croutons, cheddar *really dry chicken, wilted greens and only the fried green tomato was edible Service was good but the food overall was pretty awful. You're better off eating at Starbuck's or grabbing something from the pantry.

One star for open.. so poor could have gone to the hospital for the same food.. Easter Buffet

Went there looking for a good steak dinner and ended up paying way too much money for a bad meal. They took 45 minutes to prepare our food and the restaurant wasn't busy. The waitress brought me a dirty steak knife and when she went to replace it and get my wife's butter for her baked potato forgot to bring it back with her. My steak was charred on the outside but was too cold to melt the compound butter that was on top. The "bacon" brussel sprouts has no bacon in them and were so over cooked that they were flaky, black, and crunchy. The truffle fries had the slightest hint of truffle on them. I don't mind paying for a good meal but $160 for two people should definitely be high quality food and this wasn't.

Medium-rare steak was served well done. Not impressed especially given the high prices.

Sunday brunch. We started at Iron House on High Street. We wanted lunch/dinner options not omelets. We left. We called the Marriott and made reservations with the hostess. Less than 10 minutes later, we arrive and the hostess gave away our table. The menu had a burger option but we wanted steak, scallops, etc. So again, we were disappointed. We ordered the lobster bisque. It was good. The soup du jour was a potato chowder more chunks than broth. It needed more broth. Three people in our party had the Eggs Benedict with and without crab with fingerling potatoes. Two people had the bacon burgers with BBQ sauce. Rather than fries, I ordered the house salad as my side. The waitress recommended the tomato vinaigrette - very flavorful would order again. As a visitor to Morgantown and WVU campus, I wanted to take my guests out for a nice meal at lunchtime on a Sunday. It was intended to be a treat for college kids who have been eating cafeteria food since Christmas. So, Morgantown & Marriott disappointed.

This is one of the best spots in Morgantown. I usually sit at the bar and have an Almost Heaven or 2 with the pork chop, or the French dip. You can't go wrong with either of those 2. The brussel sprouts are delicious as a side. I go there every time I am in Morgantown for business.

This was by far the worst dining experience of my entire life. I created an account to specifically review this restaurant. I typically look down on those leaving negative reviews, but this is essential. I went on Valentine's Day, and the limited menu was disgusting. I was unable to comprehend what a majority of the items were due to excessive fanciness on the wording. The bread was stale. The chicken and steak were almost inedible. The sweet potatoes were overloaded with curry, which is a spice that should not be added heavily. The dessert portion was meant to be shared and was about two Spoonfuls worth. On top of that, the service was sucky, and almost all of the other diners around us were complaining and returning their meals. If a menu is going to be limited, at least make the food worth eating. I am a day-to-day coke drinker, and they somehow managed to make the soda undrinkable. Do not go here on a holiday! I cannot account for the bar food, but spending 120 bucks plus the added 30 dollar service fee was not even close to being worth it! The restaurant itself is right next to the front desk of the hotel, which makes it hard to maintain the classy restaurant image it is so desperately trying to portray! Never again will I go here. I even left the 15% off coupon given to us as a "gift" on the table because I will never be returning.

It's been a few years and now we are leaving Morgantown for our final time. Our child has graduated and I decided to give the restaurant one last try. Much better! Water and drink service still a little slow but I'm sure they are understaffed- as everyone is these days. The menu is small, I'm sure due to covid, but adequate. Friendly service at the table and the bar. It's nice not to be ignored as we were last time. This is a fantastic venue and deserves to have superior food and service. Not quite there yet but moving in the right direction. Good luck to Bourbon Prime and LETS GO MOUNTAINEERS!

Very fine. A gem in the coal mountains of Morgantown, and the Marriott Hotel with valet parking. We went after reading the reviews, and we were totally satisfied. Appetizers 64 Degree Egg, stuffed peppers and meat cheese board were ample size. The She Crab soup was creamy with chucks of She Crab. The steaks were prepared nicely and delicious. The atmosphere is modern and warm. Two TVs are in the main dining room, and you walk through the open bar to get to the hostess there. The rooms flow nicely. We sat and talked after we finished. Our waitress Amanda was very attentive, and did not rush us. The venue was that comfortable.

We had drinks at the bar before deciding to eat here. Rob is a great bartender. Very attentive, and fun to talk to. He recommended trying dinner, and we were glad we did. The food is excellent and the atmosphere is quiet and cozy. Our service was excellent as well. We were not starving so we tried some of their smaller plates between 3 of us. The crab cakes are delicious. The lobster and corn chowder is creamy, flavorful and full of lobster. We loved the tender short ribs, the butternut risotto, the grits and the pepperoni rolls as well. We will definitely be back to try some other dishes.

The food was fresh the chicken masala was delicious and the Caesar salad And The Italian salad with delicious

Food was pretty good. They seemed a bit understaffed and it took quite a while to get sat, order, and get food. To give them the benefit of the doubt, there was a ball going on and they seemed overwhelmed at best.

I stayed at the Marriot and ate here for lunch and dinner. Overall, it was pretty good and the service was excellent. I had the salmon for dinner and the salmon salad for lunch. I'm glad that I didn't have to go anywhere to eat. The prices were not that bad considering the dishes being served. I would definitely eat here again.

I have been here twice for special events - not for a regular meal. Both times I was really blown away. Our tasting included a scallop with a vanilla cream carrot puree - It may have been the best thing I ate high end all year. This dinner was a bourbon pairing and was just so well put together. The Manager was highly engaged, the chef came to interact with our party - Just a first call experience.

Having recently planned a wedding at the Morgantown Marriott, I have eaten at this restaurant MANY times. I have never been disappointed. Service is outstanding. This doesn't mean that there isn't sometimes a wait, but staff is extremely courteous and always checking on you. Ive eaten here more for lunch than dinner. Prefer sitting at the bar. Some of my favorites (some seasonal) are the Cobb salad, charcuterie plate, goat cheese/red pepper flatbread, and burger. The pork chop is good but I preferred it when they paired it with an apple chutney. If you like bourbon, get an almost heaven. If you don't like bourbon, get an almost heaven.

Reserved for the Mother's Day Buffet. I had reservations at 345 PM. We checked in and they collected the money before we entered the ballroom. We were then informed they were only open 15 more minutes expecting us to eat in that time. We immediately went to the buffet, every chafing dish was open and everything was cold except the roast beef at the carving station. The deserts looked like they came from a grocery store. I went to the table where we were checked in and complained about the cold food, the rushed service, and the lack of deserts. I was told I would be called back by the food service manager. I never received a call back, I also called several times and was never passed through to the food service manager or ever had a call back. The amount I paid for the 3 of us was over $165. To say I am disappointed is an understatement.

First time for.dinner. I had chili and pork tacos (both.on the appetitzer menu). The chili was excellent and the tacos very good. The service was also very good. The restaurant is inside of a new Marriott that has just been remodeled. The new look is open and modern. There are several tvs in the bar area if your only looking for a drink. It would a great place to watch sports. There is a daily special on the appetitzer. It is $4 at 4-5, $5 at 5-6 and $6 from 6-7. That's a new one for me. I'm sure I'll be back soon

I was so excited. My mother in law was in town all the way from New York, and it was her sons birthday! We were celebrating his birthday. 2 years ago we tried out bourbon Prime and it was a terrible experience! But I'm an extreme firm believer give a second chance especially 2 years later , right ? We get a phone call from the restaurant around 630 telling us we missed our reservation , when our reservation wasn't until 7pm. We arrive things were fine, seated promptly drinks came , apps ordered . We were happy. Food comes all steaks are covered with STEAK SAUCE (A1) and we were very clear about 0 sauce ! Steaks arrive have steak sauce so we send back , in under 2 minutes they bring the steaks back flipped over and steak sauce wiped off trying to act as if they were new. The MANAGER EVEN CAME OUT. Needless to say experience both times have been terrible . We travel to Pittsburgh when we want a good meal it's worth the travel! However sea food was

Great Room but HORRIBLE ROOM SERVICE/BREAKFAST BUFFET. Not available as stated by "at your service" or on the room menu. Restaurant and Room Service not available till 7. Buffet was Continental Breakfast at best with no pancakes, or even DIY waffles, french toast, syrup, honey or even brown sugar for the sad steel cut oats. Room service was served in plastic to go containers and was not even appetizing to look at. Great Room but go somewhere else for breakfast. McDonald's would have been better to-go than the plastic to go room service. See photos

Bourbon prime was excellent. Our server Brandon and the host were both great. The atmosphere was nice and relaxing (we sat on the deck). We had the pepperoni rolls for an appetizer, the fried chicken w/braised greens , cauliflower au gratin, and the hamburger with malt fries. We enjoyed all of our food . We will definitely return.

15 minutes until my first drink. Was it crowded? No, it was obviously a slow night with a full host of servers walking around and none seemed to want to even offer us water or even make eye contact. The meal was less than pleasing. I have eaten a lot of good meals and excellent steak in my life and this simply was average at best. The server was nice once we finally met him. Here is my tip.... go somewhere else. I know I will next time. This was not worth the money.

First let's start with the pros: the exclusive Woodford Reserve Bourbon was outstanding. From there I don't have much else to say. The trout was bland. As was the fillet. Service was slow despite the fact that I counted 8 servers for 7 tables. We arrived a little early for our reservation and waited almost 15 minutes to be acknowledged after seated. If the place was busy I could understand but it was basically empty. To top it off they seated a couple right next to us in an empty dining room. I will go back for a nightcap at the bar and eat elsewhere. The price we paid for our meal just wasn't worth it. Bland is an understatement. We expected better from a Marriott branded hotel restaurant.

This is my go to place when ever I travel to Morgantown. I have never been disappointed when eating and drinking. The almost heaven drink is iconic and truly an experience when it comes to mixology. Pepperoni rolls and my go to every single time I come. Get the Puskar pizza as well as the flavors are like a party in your mouth. Had the butternut squash dip and all I can say is "WOW". No matter what I get I am always happy. Try it out and you will not be disappointed. Service is always on point!

We had a great experience. We made a huge mistake of not getting a reservation. Not in any hurry, we settled in the bar area. But much less of the time anticipated, we were seated and our waiter was very good. We had the pepperoni rolls, Brussel sprouts and crab cake for appetizers. All were delicious. I'm not even a huge fan of Brussel sprouts and these were very good. I went for the steak and frites. The fries had a truffle oil and they were so good. Steak was cooked perfectly. Wine list was good. We will definitely be back.

Super good. The she crab soup was awesome. My only issue with this restaurant is the lack of shaved parn on your Ceasar salad. More parm, please.

This place is amazing !! We always eat here when we are in town . The service and food are top notch !! The culinary team has a great vision with great local ingredients

Servers are polite and are able to deal with the most irritating, Ill behaved tables due to the restaurant being in the Marriott Waterfront (lots of tourists/college families). The food is outstanding and our drinks are NEVER watered down like so many other places in Morgantown. I don't like wings, but their wings are my favorite item on the menu. That's how fantastic they are!

I had dinner here with my parents after s very long and stressful day at work. Our meal was excellent! The hostess and waitress were very friendly and provided excellent recommendations. I started out with a glass of Santa margarita Pinot Grigio. I requested the filet medium rare with a side of Brussels sprouts and pale ale Mac and cheese. Oh my word, my steak was cooked to perfect, so juicy and flavorful. The sides were to die for! We finished with the butterscotch cheesecake and it was so delicious! Definitely recommend this restaurant for the frequent traveler or a date night! Lovely atmosphere and gorgeous decor!

Went for dinner but opens at five. But we were seated at a high top for some late lunch bar food. Had the pork belly which I felt should be cut smaller with more rendering to improve taste and texture. The shrimp and grits and crab cake was nothing exceptional, both needed some acid aside from three pickle slices for balance. Serve was good... but underwhelmed by the food.

We were staying in the Marriot for a family weekend get-together and decided to have our birthday boy's meal here. We were told that the restaurant opened at 5 pm and we were there promptly at 5. We had to wait awhile to be seated even though we were the only people in the restaurant. (There were a few people sitting at the bar.) Our server promptly took our beverage order and patiently provided samples of different beers for our beer-drinkers to decide their preference. All was going well at this point. We ordered the brussels sprouts appetizer and it didn't take too long to come out. It was delicious, but the serving size was way too small for the price. We waited OVER AN HOUR for our food - remember we were the first people in the restaurant and at this point there are only a few more people there. My son's steak, which was ordered medium well, was charred black, tough and way over-done. My husband's salmon was over-cooked, dry and even burnt on the edges, my chicken was so-so and the sauce was way too salty. The accompanying mashed potatoes resembled a thick gravy with a very weird texture like no mashed potato I've ever seen, and they were cold! We had to send back the potatoes and steak for a re-do and the manager came over to apologize and offer us free dessert. Honestly? We had a better meal at our local Outback Steakhouse the week before. To wait over an hour for mediocre food is just ridiculous. They get two stars from us. One star for the brussels sprouts and one star for the cookie skillet dessert. Other than that, this place is way over-priced and over-rated. Not worth your time.

Tried this place for the first time last night and loved it. Nice, quiet, relaxing atmosphere. We had the pepperoni roll appetizer and it was great (and I'm not a big fan of pepperoni rolls). Filet was cooked perfectly. Also, has a very good wine and bourbon list. Will definitely go back.

One of the best Marriotts I've ever stayed at. This restaurant is amazing. Fantastic service, great cocktails and the food is as good as any 5 star restaurant. I will be returning here soon.

Hard to ruin a ribeye but they did. Tough flavourless meat smothered by an awful steak sauce. However service was good and crab cakes tasty

Great Breakfast!!! Best kept secret in Morgantown! Thanks Bourbon Prime for making my sons birthday memorable!!!

Amazing food . Great apps Isabella sever was amazing. Pork tacos. Devils on horse back., hummus to die for

This place is overrated and over priced coupled with terrible service. The menu is pretty limited. We started with the pepperoni roll appetizer, which came out burnt on the bottom. I ordered the prime New York strip. It was so salty I could barely eat it. Our waitress was no where to be found to refill my water, which was needed to wash down the salty steak. The braised greens and truffle fries were good but really not "shareable". Our service was terrible, spending over two hours there. For the price point I expected more. I would not return.

This was a 1st time experience. The food was surprisingly delicious. Our waitress provided good service. However, failed to introduce herself upon greeting. The atmosphere was similar to that of an airport. The lights were too bright for an evening dinner and the seating reminded me of most airport restaurants. Would we go back? Sure, but not for an intimate setting. We would go back for the food. It was VERY good.
