"7 dined together while at the GWCC for a convention. It was dinner the last night of the convention so it was very quiet in PM. Ambiance is just OK, service was just right but again the restaurant was not busy. Bottom line the food was very good. I had the tuna tartar app and garden salad, both right on. Main course was the strip steak and will say it was just as good as the steak I had at Ruth's Chris just a couple nights previous but for $15 less @ PM. Cannot say how things go when the convention crowd is jamming the restaurant but my experience, and the others in our party, was a good one."

"When looking for a breakfast option prior to an event at the Dome, GWCC, Centennial Park, or elsewhere, place this place on your list. For us it was superb."

"Went on a Sunday night to an "empty restaurant". The food was not up to par as my steak appeared to have been frozen before being ordered. The pork tenderloin was also not as expected, especially for the price. Would not recommend going if they are not busy."

"I attended a dental convention at the World Congress Center during the week and my group had lunch at the Prime Meridian and it was splendid. They had several options for busy business groups: hot lunch buffet or menu items. I had the roasted turkey sandwich on Gluten-Free brad and it was beyond yummy. I was very impressed that they even had a "Gluten-freee Corner". My other group members had the portabella sandwich, hamburger and the buffet and everything was remarkable. Truly impressed and I am hardly impressed nowadays."

"I was disappointed...I had the salmon which was good..Spinach was a little too salty after a few bites..Crab cakes were quarter size and pretty good. Mushroom salad was ok, a little bland, but good. I really wanted a special desert, however no menus could be found, waitress offered: chocolate cake, red velvet cake, missippi mud pie and peach cobbler...To me not worth the calories, maybe she described poorly.....Overall overpriced and not really that special. My son enjoyed the carb bar buffrt....But overall I Would probably not go back again"

"Overall, it was good. The waiter was very pushy- I felt like he wanted us to make additional purchases (wine, appetizers, dessert) even though we weren't interested. But the other staff members were delightful. I highly enjoyed my dinner. One complaint, the description promised fingerling potatoes, but I received some fried potato variation."

"The restaurant staff was very accommodating and patient to hold our reservation while we sat stuck in traffic for over an hour four blocks from the restaurant. Service was excellent, and food was very good overall, except for a fish dinner, which my sister said was the worst fish she had ever tasted. My husband tasted the fish and also agreed that it was extremely fishy-tasting and unappetizing. As it was late in the evening, my sister decided not to order another dinner. Overall, it is a nice restaurant and we would go back."
