Had reservations for a recent Saturday night. Were seated quickly and a server came by within about 10 minutes. It was a busy night so not unreasonable.
We started with drinks including the highly recommended pear martini. It was incredible! More were ordered along with a few margaritas and as the night moved on, we also tried some Casa tequila shots. They brought me to a different mental plane so, yay, but at $23 per shot, they needed to be a magic potion. All the things booze wise were fantastic. They know how to pour drinks.
So the food...fyi, you have full access to the menu at Burke Prime but they didn't tell us that. As we saw clotheslines of bacon and onion rings around us, we asked.
For apps we got, the fried calamari, a small table side cacio y pepe, a small seafood platter and an onion ring tower. The cacio cheese wheel pasta was the best followed by the onion rings, the seafood platter and the calamari. The whole place is on the expensive side but $95 for the seafood platter is ridiculous for what you get. If you've been to Morton's, their small seafood tower at the same price, blows this one away. Nothing about or on it was fabulous outside of the little smoke show they put on when it's served. Calamari was rubber. Boo.
Entrees were the salmon, it was salmon, lobster fra diavlo--meh, the chicken parm which was actually fabulous and then the 6oz Japanese A5 wagyu. Now this, while off the hook delicious and basically melts like butter in your mouth, is $160....and served with nothing so add a $12 baked potato. They really need to serve this either with the potato on the same plate, or on a smaller plate cause it looks ridiculous.
Overall, service was great, most of the food was good, but at this price point, everything should be outstanding so we'd probably not return. But if you've never been, it's worth a try, just stick to the basics like the pasta/parms imo.
