"Took my wife for a lovely date night and we enjoyed everything. From the person opening the door, the booking experience, attentiveness to get you a table very quick and the cordial demeanor of the two waiters that took care of us. Thank you Josh and Matthew for setting up everything of us to have a great night. Matthew was very knowledgeable and came several times to our table to ensure we didn’t run out of water or bread. And he made some good recommendations on the drinks and dishes. My wife had the salmon and I ordered Ribeye. All was delicious. We are looking for another date night on this restaurant."

"We recently went to 16 Prime for a special date night. The restaurant offers reservations which we took full advantage of. We were really impress with the layout and decor of the restaurant. Every single person we passed in the restaurant spoke or greeted us and we felt very welcomed and special. The food was as impressive as the look and vibe of the place. My husband had a cook to perfect steak and I have to say I think my scallop dish took the win though. He even was jealous. My favorite was the unique octopus appetizer, the sauce is so perfect. Shrimps were huge. We had cocktail and wine and all paired nicely. But none of the experience would have been as outstanding without the best server in the world, Matt. The food was so good, but Matt really made it an "experience". He is so professional, but fun and he knows everything about the menu, food and drinks. It was a blast and way more than we expected. Highly recommend! Can't wait to come back!"

"My wife and I went for the first time recently, and the experience was quite nice. We shared the 16 Prime Chopped Salad, which is more than enough for two people. I had the Chilean Sea Bass with the Miso Sake Glaze (highly recommend), and my wife had the Seared Scallops, which were also delicious, but the accompanying jalapeno cream corn was the unexpected hero. The fresh bread and butter at the start were delicious, and I recommend trying a seasonally inspired cocktail. If possible, get seated with Roger as he is delightful."

"Just had the best steak I have had since moving to North Carolina. Perfectly cooked, juicy, tender and flavorful. They had a great surf and turf special that was more than we could eat for less than $45. Outstanding value and great food. Roger was an excellent server and couldn’t have performed better. Highly enjoyed our dinner and will return often! The ambiance was great, not too loud but enough background music/ noise that you feel like everyone can hear what you are saying. Overall a great dining experience."

"Visited for the first time this evening and have nothing but great things to say. The service and food were both excellent. They pay attention to the smallest details; like coming back from the restroom to find my purse hung on a purse hook at the table by the hostess. The quality of the food and pricing were great and much better than some of the overpriced trendy places in Charlotte. Will definitely be back. Kudos to the front of the house and culinary team."

"We’ve been to 16 Prime several times now and it never disappoints. The food is seriously next-level, but what really makes this place stand out is the service. From the moment you walk in you are greeted with friendly faces. Matt is our go-to server and he’s phenomenal. He’s personable, attentive, and makes every visit feel like he is stoked you’re there. I also love that each server has an assistant to help keep things running smoothly without ever feeling overbearing. Ella nailed it last night. Last night’s special, wagyu and shrimp, was on another level of decadent. The lobster bisque could easily stand as a meal on its own, and the appetizers are just as impressive (the brussel sprouts are a personal favorite). The portions are all huge and you really cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. It’s been so thoughtfully curated. We’re so glad Denver has a place like this. Even though the service is fine dining caliber, the vibe is warm, welcoming, and never pretentious. 16 Prime is the perfect balance of elegance and comfort."

"My wife and I finally were able to try 16 Prime Steak & Seafood for our anniversary. It was definitely worth the wait! We made a reservation online so when we arrived, our table was ready and they had put out rose petals on the table for us. We thought this was a nice touch. Our server Ryan was the best as he was very helpful and had a great personality. We ordered the Beet Salad, Salmon and Smoked Gouda Mac & Cheese. Ryan wasn't kidding when he said the sides will feed 3 or 4 people as it was huge! Entrée portion sizes were plentiful and everything tasted great. We ended up ordering the Coconut Cream Bomb Cake for dessert which was also fantastic. Overall, we had a great experience and thank you to 16 Prime Steak & Seafood for making our evening very memorable. Would highly recommend!"

"We recently hosted our company Christmas party at 16 Prime, and it was an absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish. The service was exceptional, and every single item we enjoyed was top-tier. From perfectly crafted drinks to the appetizers, salads, main courses, and sides—everything was executed flawlessly. The drinks were spot on all night, and the steaks were incredibly tender—so much so that I had no trouble cutting my leftovers the next day with a plastic knife. That alone says everything about the quality. And the desserts? Unforgettable. The PB Pie and Coconut Bomb Cake truly lived up to their names—absolute showstoppers and the perfect ending to an amazing meal. 16 Prime delivered an elevated dining experience that impressed our entire group. We couldn’t have chosen a better place to celebrate, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!"
