    Prime: An American Kitchen & Bar

    Dedicated to the expression of modern American cuisine, Prime 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. The menu also includes a variety of surf & turf options, including striped bass, wellington, and pepper-crusted short rib for 2. 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. Prime’s first location in Huntington, NY opened in 2006, and is designed to reflect the look of a classic boathouse along the Charles River. A custom glass wall in the center of the main dining space is an artistic balance to the shimmer of Huntington Harbor just outside its doors. Spend an afternoon in our wood lounge, complete with fireplace and leather couches, or venture out to the firepit on our intimate fantail, reminiscent of a boat’s bow. Expansive water views enjoyed from the Wave Bar or while dining on the covered and seasonally enclosed porch are a perfect backdrop when sipping from our extensive list of signature cocktails, pouring a bottle of wine from our 1,000-label wine list, or enjoying our modern American cuisine. Prime’s second location opened 10 years later in 2016 just across the Long Island Sound in Stamford, CT. An almost mirror image of our flagship, tempered glass walls allow a full view of the water from nearly any seat in the house and stay open when the weather allows. Guests can explore our illuminated glass wine room, visible from the both inside and outside the building, and with over 750 labels, the floor-to-ceiling enclosure has separate temperatures for white and red wines. In warmer weather, guests can sit outside with one of our signature cocktails watching the boats come in. Dinner is served on the deck or our outdoor cabana bar. Sunday Brunch is offered weekly (Huntington: 11:30am to 3pm; Stamford: 12pm to 3pm), with catering options also available.
