    I had a wonderful experience. I had the catfish bites, truffle fries and two RSVP mocktails. Everything was delicious. Our server was so friendly and gave helpful menu suggestions. The live band was great. It is an intimate restaurant so it can be difficult to hold a conversation when the band is playing. Overall, we had an awesome time and will go back soon.

    We were seated at a high top for 2 people that overlooked the kitchen. My wife and I are average sized humans and we felt the table was a little cramped for shared plates, but this was the only negative thing to say about our evening. The service was outstanding with napkins, plates, and cutlery replaced with each course. The restaurant was filled with conversation and some fun music, about what you would expect with shared plates being the main theme. The drinks were great, the view from our table was superb. We had a look in on the open fire grill and the stone oven while also being able to watch the bartenders put on a show making cocktails. Food was top notch and came out spaced perfectly. We had the beef tartare, Carrots, octopus, and duck. This was an excellent date night, anniversary meal (if you’re ok with loud) or a great double date, I think 4 people here fits the menu size for their shared plates pretty well.

    We had a wonderful dining experience. It was our first time at Prime29 and we were celebrating a birthday. Many great choices - we wished we could do a sampler of every appetizer! We each had one of the nightly specials - Scallops and Halibut. Both were delicious. Steak next time for sure. Our waitress was great - very attentive and helpful on suggestions. We were surprised with a delicious piece of birthday cake and candle at the end of the dinner without even asking for anything. Exceeding our expectations.
