Our Christmas Eve dinner at Prime & Provisions was absolutely unforgettable! The food was phenomenal, but what truly made the evening exceptional was our server, Nate. From the moment we sat down, Nate made us feel welcome and taken care of with his warm personality and impeccable attention to detail. He anticipated our needs before we even had to ask and gave fantastic recommendations that turned our meal into a truly elevated experience. The holiday ambiance was perfect, and Nate’s professionalism and charm made it all the more special. Thank you, Nate, for making our Christmas Eve dinner so memorable! We’ll definitely be back and will be asking for you next time!

We started a new tradition going to a fancy dinner on Christmas Eve. This was hands down the best dinner. From bringing apples and carrots as an appetizer for my kids to the fantastic service and absolutely delicious dinner. The place was so busy but you couldn’t tell with how quickly the food came out. It was the best Christmas Eve!
