501 Prime

Great steak for me and excellent scallops for my wife. Service was good and venue was nice.

My wife, mother and I had one of the worst restaurant experiences while dining at 501 Prime. We've been to this restaurant before and while the food has been mostly average and the service mediocre, our visit last night was on a whole other level of poor service and quality. We were in the restaurant for 1 hour and 45 minutes. Food was not cooked properly, changes were made to our order and when a manager was brought to our table, he was condescending, rude and did not care one bit that we had a bad experience. His focus was on if we were charged properly for what we ordered and informing us of the restaurant's policies. We will never be back.

Husband declared it the best steak he’s ever had which is saying something because 1) he’s had a lot of steaks all over the world and 2) he’s picky about the way his steak is cooked and usually prefers one he’s cooked at home. I tried it and the crust was indeed phenomenal. Oysters were fresh and the tomato and bacon salad was to die for. Upstairs bar was also a hit and I think my husband would like to be BFFs with the super knowledgeable bar manager whose name escapes me at the moment (Ron maybe?). Friendly and attentive service. Clean bathrooms.
