Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar

05/29/2008 Posted by Vix89

I went to Flemings with my boyfriend and had one of the best filets mignons I've ever tasted. We both thought the food was great! However, the place is loud and the prices are high. Our server was training and she wasn't very attentive. Aside from the service, I would definately go back

Pros: Quality tender steak. Huge wine list

Cons: High prices. Loud

Price is higher than listed on here!! Not a single steak under $30. Maybe half a dozen entrees under $30. $9.50 for a soup! Salads are not included, and are not that tasty. My $33 petite filet had no flavor. It was tender, but no flavor. Covered in black pepper. Bonefish's filet puts this to shame. My husband liked his ribeye, though. Cheap ribeye is $38. A group of five ordered 3 appetizers, sodas, average priced entrees, and the bill was $265! That's $53 per person. My only complaint was the unexpected prices and disappointing steaks and salads. We ordered three different types of salads, by the way, and we all sampled each other's. I wouldn't write home about any of them.. Charley's is a MUCH better choice.

Pros: Nice atmosphere, comfortable seating, good service.

Cons: Overpriced. I don't mind paying for good food, but this was not that great.

I went to Flemings a few weeks ago and was highly impressed! I ordered the calamari, filet mignon with the Flemings cheese potaoes, and cheesecake. This may have been the best filet I've ever had. The drinks are strong and the service is excellent. They also have a great bar area for before or after dinner drinks.

Pros: Excellent food and service, great ambiance

Cons: none!

I brought several of my associates here for dinner and it was an excellent experience. The waiter was extremely knowledgable about the menu and the wine list. The service was impecable. Our steaks were all cooked exactly as ordered. It's not cheap but you don't come here for bargains. This place is a very nice choice for a special occasion or business entertainment.

Pros: excellent food, great wine, great service

Cons: price

I went to Fleming's last month to celebrate my friend's promotion. we were first greeted by a courteous girl that verified my reservation and then we got sat. A young guy arrived to our table and we thought he was our server but after dropping and explaining to us a starter plate he told us the waitress would be there soon. this person(the waitress) arrived and ask us about drinks and appetizers in a way that we thought we were being rushed but since she seemed to be very busy we didn't pay too much attention to it. everything was wonderful, Flemings has the best calamari in town. my steak was cooked to perfection. we were constantly helped by all the staff our waitress was ok . she was busy most of the time. the only thing i didn't like about Gina was that she had a strong cigarette smell which i consider disgusting when I'm eating. My husband was blown away by the service given by one of her assistant who was always filling his water, and anticipating his needs. I'm planning to come back soon.

Pros: great food (calamari)

Cons: server smokes

Taken to Flemings by friends to celebrate the holidays and was not disappointed. The hostess already had our names via the reservation made by friends and greeted us by our last names with the title Mr & Mrs. Taken to our table where we were greeted by our waiter and butler who offered a similar greeting. The wait staff was very courteous and knowledgable and helped us during the meal with our selections. Our party shared several appetizers all wonderful. My wife and I split a salad, she had the filet and I enjoyed the chefs mixed grill of a filet, lamb chop and salmon. Unfortunately time constraints didn't allow for us to have dessert and coffee. Our experience was so pleasant we didn't want to leave. The wife and I have eaten in Charlies, Ruth Chris, The Capital Grill, and Berns locally and the experience at Flemings beat them all.

Pros: Extremely courteous staff from valet through wait staff. Great food!!!

Cons: none

We went to Capital Grille for a special occassion. We had reservations for 8pm (soonest time available), we were not seated until 8:45pm. The place was so crowded and loud. There was absolutely no place to sit and wait unless you wanted to sit in the loud bar area and there definitely wasn't space for a party of 4 to sit together. The service started out good, but half way through our meal a very large party arrived and we never saw our waiter again. We were assigned two "new" waiters, who weren't very attentive. The prices were high for what you got. I ordered the filet and it was good, but for $35 I guess I expected it to be exceptional. I probably won't be back. No one in our party was impressed. We will stick with Shula's where the service is consistent and the atmosphere/ambience is better.

Pros: Good menu selection, good desserts

Cons: very loud, service not very attentive, overpriced

We were a party of eight that ordered and shared a smorgasboard of appetizers and sides. To start we had the Baked Brie, Calamari, Seared Ahi Tuna, Lobster Tempura, Tenderloin Carpaccio, and French Onion soup. All of the appetizers were presented and tasted excellent! Salads were all ordered individually and enjoyed by all, mine as the Seafood Chopped Salad. It was loaded with lump crab and scallops, excellent! For sides we ordered Baked Potato, Mashed potatoes, Chipolte Cheddar Mac n Cheese (AWESOME!), Creamed corn, grilled asparagus, and sauteed mushrooms. All of the sides were excellent. Our steaks included the 12 oz Filet, 16 oz NY Strip, 22 oz Prime Bone-in Ribeye as well as the Salmon and Lobster Tails. The steak (I ALWAYS order NY Strip) was a hair better than Charley's, my wife's Filet was the best either of us had tasted. Everyone else at the table agreed that their steaks were top notch. Dessert, upon Guido's recommendation we had four lava cakes...WOW! All of the food was great, presentation was excellent. (Obviously the side dishes have been improved upon from some reviews I have read) Service was awesome! Our Sicilian server (who's name is considered an inappropriate word by citysearch's software) was the best! His knowledge of the food and wine were superb. His personality was great. He has the rare ability to interact with each person at the table was excellent. The dining room was a little noisy, but I'd much rather that than a hushed environment. Overall there were four dishes that we agreed are best in town: Calamari, Chipolte Cheddar Mac n Cheese, Lava cake and the Steak.

Pros: Parking, Service, Calamari, Lobster Tempura, Steaks, Lava Cake

Cons: Depending on where you are seated it can be noisy

flemings has a mouth watering array of entree items and personable service that can't be beat. its perfect for a romantic dinner with a loved one or a business meeting with colleages. they have an expansive wine list and delishous a la carte menu items. very pricey though.
