- MMarkSouth Carolina •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoEverything was outstanding (wine, steaks, and dessert), right until the very end. The lady who greeted us at the door (manager?) showed up to our table as we were getting ready to leave. Our reservation was for 6 and we had just paid and were leaving at 7:04 pm. She came to the table, and we figured that she would ask how about our dining experience. No, she stated "we are busy" and stated something to effect that we needed to leave ASAP. We certainly we not lingering. There were other parties in our room that were there when we arrived, but she didn't approach them. A very strange way to punctuate what was otherwise a very pleasant dining experience. Our server was excellent, as was the food.More infoPrime & PearlPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Gainesville•4.7
