Prime on the Mile

I recently took my wife to Prime on the Mile in Freeport for a Valentine's Day brunch, and I'm so glad we went! The restaurant is owned by the same team behind my absolute favorite local spot, Prime 39, where comfort food seamlessly blends with fine dining vibes.To be honest, I was hesitant at first. I'd tried booking brunch earlier, but the pricing wasn't clearly explained, which turned me off. But after I shared my thoughts on social media—saying how much I wanted to love it but hadn't given it a fair shot yet—the manager, Diedre, reached out and personally convinced me to give it another try. Thank you, Diedre—I'm thrilled I listened!The food was incredible, just as I'd hoped. I ordered the Jerk lamb and grits (something I'd never tried before), and it was absolutely delicious—flavorful, tender, and perfectly executed. The setting felt cozy and spotless, with music playing at just the right volume and energy level. What really elevated the experience was the lively ambiance: a vocal host wandered around encouraging guests to sing along to the tunes—it was so much fun and created this warm, communal vibe.But what impressed me most was the service. Diedre was noticeably pleasant and genuinely welcoming; she has this special way of making every guest feel like they truly belong there. It's clear her positive energy sets the tone for the entire staff—they were all attentive, friendly, and on point.Overall, it was a fantastic Valentine's Day outing. The food, atmosphere, and hospitality were all top-notch. We're definitely going back—highly recommend!
