J.t. Prime Kitchen Yuma

I was passing by Yuma and decided to try this place out. Not much to look at outside, but once you enter, its a great atmosphere for a date night. I had the NY steak, even though I really wanted the ribeye that all the reviews are talking about, they did not have it available because they just opened for the night and they were not ready to cook it. The NY steak was still excellent though. What ever toppings they had on the steak and mashed potatoes really adds to the taste. The service was excellent, the waitresses were cute, attentive, and assist you with a smile. Next time your in Yuma, you should give this place a try.

This place is a true gem and a one of a kind dinning experience! The service was wonderful the food was delicious! I had the beef short rib ravioli it was truly the best pasta I’ve ever eaten. The oysters with their special sauce and beef carpaccio were beautiful starters to what would be an exceptional meal and experience! 10 out of 10 would dine here again!

My wife and I spent New Years at this restaurant and wanted to share our experience. The restaurant overall is a bit quirky being situated in a strip mall plus having to walk past the kitchen to get to our table. That said, I like quirky but my wife, not so much. When we entered the restaurant, we found ourselves in the bar area. We were greeted by whom I believe was the bartender or host or both. Although she handed us each a glass of champagne, the feeling of being welcomed ended there. At our table, she seemed to be trying to get us to order water even though we normally don't. When we told her we would be ordering soda, she walked over to a waitress and said something and pointed to us. My wife felt as if we were being talked about which made us feel uncomfortable. From that point, the service was good but we felt the wait staff could have used a bit more etiquette as they reached in front of each of us and touched the table quite a bit. The food was very good but the portion sizes might be considered small by some. The pork belly and stuffed shrimp were very good but I'm not sure they were 30 to 40 dollars per entree good. On this visit, I believe we ended up being judged as customers based on the fact that we set the bar low for them by ordering pop with our meal and with it being NYE, we were dressed a bit more casually than some of the other guests. Never judge a book by its cover. Oh, and maybe find a new hostess.

Unparalleled dining experience, you cannot go wrong with anything on the menu! I had the Caesar salad, sizzling hot rock with beef, and the lemon basil chicken fettuccine. Each dish was served at the perfect time i didn’t feel rushed the ambiance of the restaurant was divine and the service was phenomenal.

We had an amazing evening here. We enjoyed drinks at the bar with the bartender Heather. She served wonderful drinks, even off menu and made them to perfection. Wonderful bartender. We then continued the evening into the dinning room, where we had phenomenal appetizers and our delicious meal. Great service.

Overall our experience was good. It wasn’t an average dining experience, but we also don’t feel it was an incredible 5 star experience worth almost $200. The ambience is dark, date night vibes which we liked. You’re seated with an open kitchen in the entrance area. We had a really good mushroom pesto bruschetta, and for our entrees, the pork belly and short rib ravioli. When we arrived we overheard a bartender sharing with another customer that the fettuccine was a small order, so I didn’t get either; however, the $30 ravioli came with 3 very al dente ravioli. My husband had 3 large pork belly pieces with potatoes. Personally, I didn’t like the ravioli and felt the balsamic was too acidic for the dish. The pork belly was great, but wasn’t incredible. My husband and I were celebrating 2 years of marriage and left a note about that on our reservation. We received a complimentary raspberry brownie? I didn’t see a dessert menu, but I think the brownie may have been overdone or there was a flavor I didn’t recognize. It desperately needed a good scoop of vanilla ice cream. Service wasn’t special either.

This restaurant was amazing! The food was exquisite and the service was great! For an appetizer we had the wild mushroom bruschetta. For the entree, I had the shrimp Costa Azul and my man had the ribeye steak. And since we were celebrating our anniversary, they gave us a beautiful dessert. A molten chocolate cake...So light and delicious but full flavor.

Quiet dinner at the bar, with a bartender who suggested drinks and food, including a few things that weren't on the menu but were absolutely incredible. The Mexican Old Fashioned was good, and he even dug up a bottle of absinthe on request to make a sazarac! The wedge salad was incredible, and the scallops I had as the main were perfectly cooked. All around good experience, I will definitely be back!
