    The food at Prime always pleases-- it's well prepared and the restaurant always uses good products. However, the service last night was slower than normal. Granted, it was a busy evening but one of the things we like about Prime is that the service always is top notch. Not last night-- it seemed slow and disorganized. But overall, a very good experience

    I always dine at The Albany War room when seeing a concert at MVP Arena. They have a limited menu on those nights, but still something for everyone. Last night I had the shrimp and grits which was delicious. The sushi, made fresh, is also delicious. Highly recommend!

    We were glad to have a booth as there were many large groups there so the vibe was lively. Our server was attentive and the food excellent. Enjoyed being there on Wine Night where all glasses were $7 and bottles 1/2 price.
