Prime 112
112 Ocean Drive
Miami Beach, FL 33139
305 532.8112

Prime 112 is a positively excellent
steakhouse and it's just a shame you can't get in?at least not
without a reservation as much as a month in advance. Ah, but once you are
seated in this trendy restaurant in the SoFI section of South Beach, you're
in for a treat.
Go with the
Sauteed
Hudson Valley Foie Gras, Organic Field Greens, and 48 ounce
Porterhouse for Two, with six sauces, five butters, and
eleven accessories to choose from. And while you're waiting for your meal,
enjoy the enticing eye-candy that frequents this hot new area of South
Beach.

Review: You
do get a lot of food for your money compared with other places in South
Beach and I did like it, but to me it's just another steakhouse. I do
love steak, but the menus always tend to be the same. I will say it is
very good though. |

Review: Definitely
not worth the price. Very small tables crammed right up against each
other. The back of my chair was actually touching the table behind me.
Very uncomfortable for me, and I'm sure the people seated there. Had a
$55 stone crab (claw)about the size of a large , but not jumbo strimp.
Don't waste your money. Had the bone in rib eye, which was mostly fat
and somewhat rubbery. Tried the collard greens, more pork fat than
greens and somewhat salty. Waiter was overbearing and somewhat
condescending. Too loud, too crowded, with some drunk couple slobberin
each other down in the crowded bar area. Spent over $300, wish we had
gone to Mickey Ds, at least I would have had less crowded seating, and
faster service. At one point, I was like, if the meal is not out here
in the next five minutes, we're leaving. We ended up taking our meal to
go, and then not eating it after all. What a letdown. Who do I call for
a refund? |

Review: I
had a miserable experience, which was so disappointing after hearing all
the hype about how excellent it is supposed to be. The way they allow
the waiting patrons to crowd all over the outside and indoor entrance
and bar made the wait intolerable, showing that they don't managing
their booking and seating very well. Then the food was a massive
disappointment. One word: salt. I had the saltiest lobster bisque and an
even saltier filet. I will not be going back. |

Review: I
went to Prime 112 last night for dinner. I had a group of 10 people and
had reservations at 10:30 PM. When I got there, they told me that they
had a wait of 40 minutes, which was annoying. They also said that
because of our large group, we (ironically) would be seated sooner than
the smaller parties. After the 40 minute wait at the over-crowded and
very small bar area, where we kept getting bumped into, I went to the
front counter to check on the reservation.
We were told it would be another 15
minutes. After waiting now a full hour, I again went to the desk to
check on the reservation and they said it would be another 15 minutes.
We did not get seated until an hour and forty-five minutes after our
initial reservation, which wasn't until 12:15 AM!! What a sham!
To top it off, we didn't even get
seated in the main restaurant and they took us to their annex which was
in a different building.
Yes, to be fair, they did buy us a
round of drinks. But they ruined our entire evening and we had to cancel
our plans for the later part of our evening as we didn't leave there
until after 2:00 AM.
Furthermore, while some in our party
enjoyed their meal, others felt that the steaks weren't that good and
that the food was over-rated.
I would strongly caution anyone wanting
to go to Prime 112 to BEWARE! |

Review: Prime
112 is totally over-rated, poor service, average food, a surly front
desk manager who refused to honor a 4 month old table reservation for a
birthday. Not worth a visit. |

Review: Why
bother to give out reservations if you have no intent to honor them. My
wife and I arrived at 9:35 for our 9:45 PM reservation anticipating a
memorable night for our 25th anniversary at this "exciting" spot. By
11:15 we were not yet seated and only told "don't worry everyone will
get seated sometime."
If you don't want the "commoners" in
your place just say so. Plenty of other places would have welcomed our
$300. I didn't need to sit next to Pat Riley or Dennis Rodman, but also
didn't need to be this humiliated on my special night.
I can't comment on the food since we
left at 11:30 without tasting a morsel. Maybe we would have been seated
eventually, but while I can't speak for other diners, the giant
porterhouse just doesn't go down well for me after midnight. |

Review: Reservation
means reservation. If somebody has one then a little wait happens, but
TWO HOURS is embarrassing. It assumes that the restaurant is the only
plan and the round of drinks does not compensate for the impact on the
rest of the evening. Unfortunately, the food was very good which
provides mixed emotion. I would have liked to enjoyed it without knowing
how they disregarded day one restaurant rules.
The bar staff was unable to handle the
crowd which in turn makes me wait WITHOUT A DRINK! now you're just
throwing money away. Scene and ambiance can never make up for
discourteous in any city. Side note our server was fine, but by that
point the night was shot. |

Review: The
food is just OK, nothing special. Had better meat even at Houston's. The
fries were veeery salty, almost impossible to eat. The service was
lousy, some people in our table were served while others waited for a
while to get their plates. And prepare for the noise, its hard to keep
conversation flowing...would not go back. |

Review: The
service at Prime 112 is horrendous! We made reservations a month in
advance and arrived on time...they kept us waiting for over an hour and
a half. Once we got to the table the everything was great! I'm stuck
between the burgers and the tuna for an appetizer. Notwithstanding, the
wait ruined the evening for everyone. |

recommended by a friend on our first trip to South Beach. We make sure
we go every time we are back in Miami. Best steak we have ever had and
the best chocolate dessert too. |

Review: To
coin a word from Will Ferrell's parody of James Lipton: Scrumtrilescent!
Our voracious appetites prohibited us from exercising restraint -
especially with the wide array of appetizers. This not only ballooned
our waistline, but our bottom-line as well. Though our tab for a table
of four was $800, the price was worth every morsel. Of the four
exquisite steaks we ordered, the Porterhouse received the highest
praise. Other raves: Beefsteak Tomato & Onion salad; Roasted Garlic
Mash; Sweet Potato & Vanilla Bean; Kobe Burgerettes, Crab Cakes and
House Tater Tots! We made reservations over a month in advance. |

Review: We
were 8 with a reservation for 8 and were seated at a table for 6. The
food was ok, but I've had better at places where we were more
comfortable and where the service was much nicer. |

Review: Prime
112 is, by far, the best American fare restaurant in Miami Beach. The
steaks were perfectly prepared, and the other menu selections were
absolutely wonderful. It is truly a place to see and be seen with
beautiful people and celebrities everywhere. Most important, the
ambience and the food were worth the reservation and the price. |
