    We had dinner at M&S before going to the theater. It was noted that we had the theater to attend, and our server,Anthony, was on top of it so we didn’t have to be concerned with timing. Anthony knew the menu and the bar / wines very well, and was able to explain and help with any questions. Service was great and the food was SO good. We have never been disappointed with our evening at M&S and this was no exception. We will be back again….

    I had been trying to dine here for a while but finally had the chance last night for my husband's birthday. I made a reservation for 6:30 PM and was warmly greeted by the wonderful and friendly staff upon arrival. They even had a customized "Happy Birthday" menu for my husband. Our server was fantastic—friendly and attentive, answering all our questions and ensuring everything was perfect. We ordered a steak and lobster mac and cheese, and I highly recommend both; they were delicious—10 out of 10!

    Prime never fails to deliver. Great service, respectful of our time, and fabulous food. We were there on a show night and both got the filet trio which was scrumptious. Tried the charcuterie board for a starter which is a new item and it was really quite tasty. The mocha cheesecake was a nice finish to the meal. Kevin was our waiter and he was fabulous.
