You've got to be kidding! Really bad!!!!! Starting off with the water, it had a funky taste. Ordered raspberry iced tea - no flavor
My sweetie ordered cherry coke - got bland iced tea. Sent it back.
Sent my iced tea back - got cherry coke. That was the beginning.
Service - couldn't understand the waitress (poor enunciation)...no personality - none. Ordered a sandwich - big mistake! Hot dip (roast beef) .... dry, no flavor, had a taste like it was going bad. Ate a few bites. Sides were bad....
Waitress asked once if everything was ok. Came back with the bill - noticed I hadn't eaten much. Asked if I wanted a box - ok - - didn't want to throw it out there- the guy who rang up the bill - didn't ask cuz he know if I said something I was gonna blow! So we took it home just to throw it out. When we got home, hence to say, I was in the bathroom. Sorry. I normally don't complain about restaurant food - but starting with the drinks it was bad ... and got worse. By the way, the restaurant had a strange smell when we walked in - I should have known. We won't be back.

I have been going there since I was a little kid. I like the music selections and the lime phosphate shakes!

The food was excellent. Service rating is low because server appeared to be a busboy instead of a trained waiter, perhaps because they were under staffed. He did not serve like an experienced server at an upscale restaurant. Downgraded ambience be

I would have loved to rate Prime as a 4 to 5 star restaurant (I would rate it 3.5 stars if possible). This is our third time dining at the Prime, and they are improving, but still have a way to go. We enjoyed the 4-course meal off the special "Chef

Great diner. Generous portions and delicious breakfast. I have eaten there many times. Great cherry Cokes. I love the decor of the 1950's. Kids would love this place.

Nostalgic diner. Thick, yummy shakes. Food is good, but not excellent. Really enjoyed the decor and the atmosphere. Family-friendly. Will bring the family back again on our next visit to the left coast.
