I know this is a fishing site, but I had such a weird experience last night I just had to write about it.
The term not so good just about sums up our experience at the Prime Steakhouse in Torrington, CT last night. Kate and I both had a rough day at work, so we decided to go out for a drive and then get some dinner and a drink to unwind. We got in the car with the idea of going to red lobster in Torrington, but when we got there we found out it was now a 99 restaurant… Disappointed we moved on and went looking for something different.
Driving around Torrington we saw a place called Prime Steakhouse and decided to give it a try. The atmosphere was blah but we decided to stay anyway. The meals were pretty pricey (~$20-30 for steaks and $17-25 for chicken dishes), and they charged $2.50 to make a regular side salad a Cesar salad… We did get an order of calamari which was awesome, but that was about the only highlight.
Our waitress was very strange, and seemed oddly nervous and overly “helpful”. She read us the entire menu, and described how you should eat each of the entrees i.e. pasta is on the side so you can cut up you chicken smaller and then take as little or as much of the pasta as you want and put it with your chicken (no lie!). When we asked for some parmigiana she brought it over and explained that the spoon she gave us was to be used to take the grated cheese out of the bowl and put it on our meals…
She proceeded to stand over us and talk while we ate, we had to say thank you 8 times before she got the point to leave. I actually contemplated giving her an extra $20 tip just to leave us alone. Despite the crazy service and so-so food, we had a good time because we were in good company.
Recommendation: Stay away from Prime Steakhouse in Torrington, CT unless you like so-so food and creepy waitresses!!!
