Visited this place for the first time and is definitely a hidden gem. The food was fresh and tasty and the service was amazing. Would definitely recommend trying the carbonara if you like white pasta, the prosciutto e arugula pizza, and their tiramisu is a must try. Overall I had a great experience!!

for twenty years, twenty years, I've NEVER had a bad meal there. Salads delish, anyone of them. Their chopped certainly a favorite.The steaks are done to perfection. Sea Bass wonderful. For a lighter fair sometimes order the baked shrimp. Although Stak houses are expensive you can't go wrong at New York Prime!
