My wife and I recently went to Webster's for our anniversary and I have to say I was less than impressed. The ambiance was very nice and accommodating and our server was exceptional. Very polite and helpful.
I read the reviews that were posted and knew that the food was going to be expensive; however, with that knowledge I had a reasonable expectation that the food would be above average and the presentation would have been exceptional. My wife had the grouper which was done well. I had the 16 oz. 1966 Ribeye steak at a cost of 52.00 brought on an over-sized plate with a minuscule chutney presentation. In all honesty the cut represented itself more like a Strip than a Ribeye. It was cooked as I had ordered but it had a tough gristle throughout the length of the steak it that took away from the cut itself. The au gratin potatoes were done well but the green beans were over done and very limp. Both came on a very plain plate. The bottle of wine we had was very nice and I appreciated the list of wines available. My other issue with the restaurant itself was the fact that there were only a handful of patrons yet we waited for an inordinate amount of time for our food. Our server brought us three loaves of bread while we waited. Although thoughtful, it again, took away from the overall experience and expectation of a restaurant that seemingly strives for high standards to justify their prices. Comparatively they could not compare with a Gibson's in Chicago, which is also ale cart, Ruth's Chris, or Morton's. In my opinion, Webster's Prime falls very short. I give it two Forks and that is due to the exceptional wait staff and ambiance.
Service was amazing. The food was amazing. The atmosphere was amazing.
A+ place to eat, very excellent atmosphere..
Webster's sets the example of how it could be done. Prices are high, as are expectations, but they deliver. Food was simply spectacular.
I took my wife there for her birthday and we both loved it.
Love the tasting room bar area!
Atmosphere, food portions, beautiful plating and excellent choices.
Amazing food!!! Great service!!! CLS highly recommends you visit Webster's Prime.
A superb date night! I went out on a date with a delightful young lady who had been having a rough go of the day and wanted a nice quite place with a relaxing atmosphere and good food. This place has done their doctorate in all of those things. The general atmosphere is beautiful, with elegant furnishings and interesting but tactful painting and other object d'art. The booth in which we were sat was well lit and comfortable, and the pianist played some very mild but entertaining music throughout the night. The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the cheese plate, scallops, salmon and desert, and it was all excellently prepared, portioned and presented. This would have been enough, but the service was top-notch. We felt neither pressured, nor ignored. Almost immediately I felt as if I were a regular and this had been my umpteenth night in the booth. I would gladly recommend Webster's Prime to anyone looking for a one of a kind dining experience.
