Had a lovely time at brunch at 1799 Prime today after attending Alfred Street Baptist church. My sister who has visited before made reservations and we were pleasantly surprised to be seated in a private room to celebrate our event. The food was absolutely delicious and the saxophonist was amazing. I especially loved the sautéed Brussels sprouts with greens, Mac and cheese, salmon and fried chicken. Our server was also very pleasant and attentive. We will definitely be back!

I was so excited to try 1799, I always want to support local back owned restaurants. I went on a date, which is why I will be trying them again under different circumstances. Nevertheless, I do feel that they have been open long enough to not have some of the kinks they did experience while dining there already taken care of.

A 3.75 is a more accurate rating. Really wanted to give this place 5 stars. Came on a Wednesday during restaurant week. They weren’t ready for the influx of people. Food was decent but not exceptional. Ordered medium lamb chops. 1 chop out of 5 was cooked medium, the rest were well done. Carrot cake left a lot to be desired. Would love to give it another try but it will be some time before I go back.

The Mac and cheese was the best thing about this meal. The garlic mashed potatoes were bland, my steak wasn’t all of that to be honest I’ve had better at a Longhorn. The bread was cold. The Buffalo wings were good nice flavor.

Susan Bissonnette
Really great experience. The steak was cooked as I requested, medium rare. Lobster tail was perfect. The cocktail I ordered was so good and came out quickly. The wait time was so short for everything. Ariam was my server, and she was so attentive and kind. She never made me feel rushed. She also made great recommendations. Amelia greeted me when I got in and was very accommodating regarding where I sat. Overall, I really enjoyed my visit.

My new favorite steakhouse!!!!! All I have to say is everything about this place was perfection. The establishment, staff, music, customer service was perfection. The food was beyond delicious. We ordered the calamari, they also served complimentary bread with cinnamon butter (yum), tomahawk steak (the best one I’ve had) with asparagus and Mac and cheese. My favorite was the steak. It had the perfect crust on the outside and juicy on the inside. Highly recommend the tomahawk steak when you visit here. Drinks was also delicious. This is my recommended steak spot from now on! There are plenty of good and delicious steak houses but 1799 Prime steak and seafood is beyond good and delicious. This place is perfection! I wish I could give this place 10 ⭐️.

I would have given this spot 5 stars but the fact that they have a fee when paying with a credit card as if its your random around the way corner store didn’t sit right with me. Outside of that I loved this place! The service was excellent and so was the food. We had the wings, calamari, branzino, rock fish and salmon and literally everything tasted amazing!!
