My husband and I previously went on Valentine’s Day after the zoo with our 5 month old daughter. Not knowing this was a fancy restaurant, which they did not judge our attire or our daughter ruining her diaper there . They were closed between lunch and dinner and at us at the bar. Xavier the bartender informed us that there was no menu available but after some chatting was able to convince the kitchen to make us some steak but no sides were available yet. It was amazing!Fast forward to today, my husband and I got a baby sitter got dressed up and went out on a date here! We sat down for real dinner and it was perfect! Shared a steak and lobster tail with sides and drinks. Our waitress served us beautifully and made the meal a true experience for us. Perfection! Xavier even came over to say hi and remembered us. We later moved to the bar and ate dessert (have to get the butter cake ??).Over all 10/10 and we want to make this a monthly tradition of drinks and dinner!

This place is awesome, the 16oz Ribeye was delicious and cooked to perfection, still tender and juicy, the lobster Mac and cheese was a perfect side dish to pair with the steak too. Bread was served with lemon garlic butter that has a flavor like nothing I'd had before and I loved it.The dining area was beautiful and a perfect setting for date night, and was not overly loud, our waiter was awesome too.

I can’t say enough good about Prime 102 in Tyler. I’ve eaten here regularly for lunch, and it is our go-to place for special occasions. Well, occasions don’t get any more special than last night. My wife and I were blessed to join a group of students from Whitehouse High School for dinner before their Jr/Senior Prom. These students and teachers from the Life Skills program at WHS were treated like royalty by the owners and staff of Prime 102. Peri, Kevin, Jen, and everyone else involved gave these special kids the service they would have lavished on CEOs or celebrities. The chef prepared a special menu, tailored around the many dietary restrictions and preferences. The adults ordered from the regular menu, and all agreed that the steaks and sides were off-the-chart good.I think we’ve found a permanent home for this annual tradition. I could say “thank you” a thousand times and not scratch the surface of the gratitude I have for the staff and ownership of Prime 102!

'Jen' and 'Casey' (sorry if misspelled), thank you for making our dining experience enjoyable. Service was great! My wife and I started with the Steakhouse Caesar salad and the Honey Glazed Berkshire Pork Belly. Our experience with the starters promised a good night. For our entrees, my wife had the Crab Cake Dinner, and I chose the 22 oz. Bone-In Rib Eye. We chose the Loaded Potato Casserole and Lobster Mac & Cheese for sides. The steak was cooked to perfection, and the crab cakes, full of succulent crab, was wonderful. The Lobster Mac & Cheese was superb. The Potato Casserole was a bit dry, but good. Overall it was a great evening.

Had a fabulous dinner and excellent service from Sean tonight! Enjoyed crab corn chowder & Caesar salad. Then 8oz filet for my husband and filet medallions for me. Decadent finish with Cracker Jack ice cream dessert ~ yummy! Always excellent dining experience at Prime 102 in Tyler!

Excellent service and experience. The food was amazing! We will travel to eat here, again!

We tried to get reservations here the day of and were told they were booked. We showed up anyway around 8pm in hopes of maybe getting a table in the corner bar. When we arrived we got lucky because several reservations ended up being no show's. We were seated immediately. Justin was our waiter and he was awesome. Very personable and friendly. We ordered a crab cake appetizer. It was really good but for the price, we expected more than one crab cake. I also had a margarita but it was very bitter and not sweet at all. My husband ordered the lamb and he was not impressed. We've had lamb one other time in Jamaica and it was absolutely delicious. This lamb tasted nothing like it. Not much flavor, very bland. I had filet medallions and they were pretty good. We shared the lobster Mac and cheese and it was very underwhelming. Also very bland and the noodles were too firm. Overall, the staff was nice and we enjoyed ourselves so we will return. Oh and the bread and butter was probably the best thing we had. Amazing ?

Really enjoyed the tuna tartar appetizer. Cheese burgers were great....nice wine selection as well. Matt was our server and even with a shoulder injury and arm sling, he did a very good job of taking care of us during the lunch crowd! They were also short handed due to covid. Matt was very engaging and helpful with recommendations.

Bread with cream cheese spread and wedge salad absolutely delicious. Crab cake was my favorite but kinda pricey for only 1 cake especially on date night when your expecting to try everything together. Steak well seasoned and prepared as requested. Cob dish kind of bland, chocolate cake just okay, and lobster Mac a bit dry. Enjoyed the atmosphere although kinda plain. Compared to other upscale steakhouses I gave it a 3. Service was attentive and professional.

Excellent cuisine in a spectacular atmosphere !!!
