It was classic - felt like taking a step back in time. The bartender made you feel like you were at Cheers- where everybody knows your name. The drinks were superb and the food delicious. Service was impeccable.

We ate here last night and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We shared the 18 ounce bone in ribeye that was cooked medium rare to medium which is how we wanted it. The collard greens and potatoes au gratin were delicious. Our server, Chris, was very attentive and explained everything on the menu to us. The hostess was very nice and seated us promptly. The atmosphere was wonderful. We highly recommend this restaurant!

This is a nice place with a few rules that I personally, have never experience. It may be like this for other nice restaurants. I came with a party of 12 people. I googled the menu. I understand if things that were sold, is no longer sold here, like salmon. But it was happy hour and the Prime Burger was on my radar, but you have to sit at the bar get the special or the burger. My party was meeting for the first time and there was not room for my entire party at the bar. I didn't want to be rude and leave my party. I enjoyed the company, the crab bisque, with the dinner rolls. The dessert was good. I understand about the food menu, which caused me to order at another restaurant when I left this one, but the happy hour not being offered at the dinner table, is not. I was starving and soup and potatoes with creme brulee for dessert was $60. The server was pretty good.

★★★★★ 5/5
A very nice and elegant place to go to. The service is very good and friendly. The food I had was very good but did not include any main entrees. The atmosphere is very nice with a long bar on the left side and tables on the right when you enter. Being casual is not a problem but your wallet will not be casual either. However, it does not necessarily mean that you will have to dole out buckets of cash. They do have a "Prime Time" happy hour from 4-6 daily with $1.50 Gulf oysters and several other food choices as well as house wines, beers and select cocktails. I had "She-crab soup" from the main menu and "Korean duck wings" from the Prime Time menu. For dessert I had the carrot cake which was delicious and very southern. They have their own pastry chef who makes all of their desserts in house from scratch. I was not disappointed and surely recommend 117 Prime for a nice time out and for a romantic dinner date.

A great choice for a quick after work or early dinner appetizer or entrée. Happy Hour offers delicious and unique dishes, including fresh Gulf oysters 4-6pm. Drink choices are refreshing and well mixed. The staff is always friendly and welcoming.

Really delicious steaks and a great atmosphere in Memphis. Typical steakhouse prices where everything was ala carte. Best value on the menu is the Wagyu coulotte, 8 ounces on the menu for $34. My husband ate 2 for his meal and it was cheaper than the 16 ounce ribeye. It's a very tender cut with great marbling. I had the filet and added some shrimp. We also ordered the garlic butter, regular butter, and some flakey salt which were all perfect toppers to the perfectly cooked steaks. Great options for a nice night out for keto/carnivore/low carb.
