Prime & Pearl - Gainesville (FL)

5 /5 Pawan Soyam: We went to Pearl and Prime for our 2nd wedding anniversary, and since it was our first one together, it felt really special. The fine dining ambience was excellent – elegant and cozy, perfect for the occasion. The food was delicious, and the portion sizes were generous. Truly enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it for special celebrations.

5 /5 mary reichardt: Every year I go here with one of my children for a special evening. It is always phenomenal. One year, I got a server who spent the evening trading riddles and jokes with my nine year old son. The last two times we have gotten the bar booth and had the same bartender serve us. She is quite awesome. Shes busy making high-quality cocktails, so be patient if youre sat there, but its worth it! The food is, in my experience, the best in town, and Ive eaten at all the major restaurants. Redfish, filet, oysters Rockefeller, sides...all superb. But really its the service. In the last month I have eaten here, Marks and Embers, and this is BY FAR the best service I received. By. Far. I hope you go and enjoy yourself. Ask for a gin-basil-smash...absolutely delicious...

5 /5 Lynn Clement: Our first experience. We had a few minute wait for a table and they bought our first round. Our amazing server/bartender extraordinaire Kelly made awesome suggestions on food, drinks, and oysters! Great atmosphere! Great drinks! Great food! And we loved Kelly! She even gave us recommendations on places to hike in the morning! Highly recommend!

5 /5 Kissa Doody: We tied the knot at Town Hall and wanted a beautiful place to celebrate our marriage. We love Celebration Pointe, which is why we chose Prime & Pearl, and they did not disappoint! Parking was free and plentiful, and we were seated without a long wait, though we highly recommend making reservations, especially on busy nights. The vibe is low-lit, romantic, and intimate which was perfect for a special occasion. Our waitress was fabulous and very attentive throughout the evening. To start, their “poppers” were absolutely delicious and a fun twist on traditional bread service, especially paired with the incredible blueberry butter. To celebrate, I ordered their Painkiller cocktail, which was smooth, delicious, and hit the spot. I also had the French onion soup, which arrived piping hot with perfectly melted cheese. For our entrées, we ordered the filet, the NY strip, and the rack of lamb, and every dish was excellent. We shared the corn and mashed potatoes, both of which were outstanding. I also loved the artistic touch on the menu check presentation. Overall, we’re so happy we chose Prime & Pearl to celebrate our new marriage and will absolutely be returning in the future.

5 /5 V Layne: This is a cute restaurant and a very quaint shopping center that was decorated at Christmas time. The food was what would be expected for the price point that they are charging. I had the Blackened Redfish which was really excellent and my dining friend had a filet mignon which she stated tasted really good. We also had some really good desserts and the wine service was impeccable and moderately priced for this type of restaurant. Definitely great for dates and business meetings as well as family events because it was not too loud.
