Dedicated to the expression of modern American cuisine, Prime: An American Kitchen & Bar is more than just a culinary adventure, it is a true experience. Guests can choose from an array of raw bar favorites, like blue point oysters, little neck clams, and lobster cocktail, along with Mizu Sushi, and steaks and chops like filet mignon and parmesan-crusted veal chop. For those with a sweet tooth, there are several dessert options, like New York style cheesecake, crème brûlée, and the crowd-favorite espresso martini – all served with complimentary water views, as both Prime locations are directly on the water with boat accessibility.

Sunday Brunch is offered weekly, with catering options also available.

Please note that reservations are recommended but walk-ins are always welcome...allowing you the time to explore our entire property with spectacular waterfront views.

    We went with a group of eight people for the Anniversary Event and we all ordered off the special menu. Between all of us, we started out with the stamford landing roll, the salmon tartare, a couple of salads and the gnocchi for appetizers, then beef wellington, grilled port loin, and the branzino which were all cooked perfectly, and ended with the desserts which were all great as well. Service and ambience were also great... no complaints on anything!!

    Last time, the wonderful cheeseburger. This time, the sliced steak sandwich; not good. The steak slices were bathed in some kind of awful sauce which also soaked the toasted roll which, sans the sauce, was a wonderful roll. The french fries were coated w/cheese (sprinkled on) so were replaced w/standard fries. Oddly, the burger has regular fries. The onion soup has lots of cubes of meat; never had french onion soup that way and didn't like that either. Asked for the soup very hot and very crisp/burned on top. Didn't get it that way at all. The restaurant is a wonderful spot but disappointed in the food.

    we went for both a birthday and for the stamford restaurant week pri fix menu. everyone had different items and enjoyed them all. the portions were all very appropriate if not large size for the set menu so definitely worth the value. Everyone's order was cooked to their liking and the waiter was able to guide us on best options. they also made my birthday very special. Will definitely return.

    Had an incredible dining experience at Prime Stamford! From the moment I walked in, the service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable, and warm. The staff made sure every detail was perfect, making me feel like a VIP the whole time. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish bursting with flavor and expertly presented. The staff’s friendly and professional. Without a doubt, one of the best dining experiences I’ve had! Highly recommend.

    Prime was amazing! Great atmosphere, great food. We had some seafood and steak and both were incredible. The manager was also very personable and came up to us to say happy birthday to my husband. This was our first time there and I look forward to going back.
