This was my first experience at Barclay Prime. It was my son's birthday and I wanted to take him to a special place. This was very special. Both my son and I really enjoyed our experience here. The food was phenomenal, the quality and the way it was prepared were amazing. The selections were plentiful without being overwhelming and the staff were very welcoming. I felt it was well worth the money.

I had reached out to the General Manager, Mr. Blackmon several weeks in advance to inquire about having a discontinued menu item available for our table. He was very accommodating and when we arrived we were assured that it was prepared for us. I want to thank him for his assistance in making our evening especially special. The service, as always, was very special. Very attentive but not hovering. We never felt rushed and we were left to enjoy the company of everyone at our table. Our table greatly enjoyed several of the appetizers and our menu selections were done perfectly. We had an excellent evening and again, thanks to Mr. Blackmon and his staff!
