Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar Reviews

What should have been a happy celebration turned out to be a disappointment. We had a 7:45pm reservation on Saturday December 16, 2017 for 12 people. We got there around 7:30pm to check in. They were rude to us and told us to go outside and wait until 7:45 then come check in. At 7:45, we came in to ask about the table, they said it's not ready yet. By 8pm, we came in to check again and they brushed us off saying it's not ready. By 8:10, they told us the table is being set up and we should wait and be patient. By 8:20, I came in and demanded to talk to the manager. When the manager showed up, I told her to give me a straight answer how long do we have to wait because we have an event to go to after dinner. She said the table we reserved is still occupied. The customers paid the bill but refused to leave. I asked her to give us another table, she said they're all booked. She suggested we should go somewhere else if we don't want to wait. I told her where can we go find a table for 12 people at that time of the day and during the holiday season. She offered us drinks and appetizers while we wait outside. We didn't get our table til 8:50pm and by that time we had to cancel the event we were going to and lost money on the tickets we bought.
It was obvious they overbooked the reservations and refused to acknowledge it. They should know our time is as valuable as theirs.

Always great. Enjoyed the food and the service was outstanding

Appetizers were amazing and there chicken was juicy and delicious. My favorite item by far was the lobster mac n cheese.

Made reservations for our Wedding anniversary and we were not disappointed. They demonstrated attention to detail and from the moment we walked in we felt that we were on a special date. Jeffrey was great and made sure we were satisfied with the service. Once we finished our meal our dessert was presented with a special message related to the occasion and we were given an unexpected gift prior to leaving. We will definitely return.

This location is great. My wife and I ran through a list of the areas great steakhouses one year and original Fleming's was at the bottom of my to try list, mainly because all my memories of the place were of business lunches with smaller portions. When we finally tried this location they moved toward the top of my list. Unlike some other steakhouses, their steak is seasoned and the taste is incredible (if you prefer your steak with less seasoning, I'd recommend Maestro's). The service is impeccable. This location is hustling, so you may not get quite the same relaxed/romantic vibe, but it has unique energy all it's own. The lobster mash potatoes here are our favorite.

I ordered a medium rare ribeye steak, wife ordered a medium rare filet. Her filet was dry on the a majority of the steak, and a little pink in the middle. My steak was tasty on a small part of the steak, and deep rare on a majority of my steak. I did not enjoy it as much. The table next to us had a guy demanding a new steak because his was not cooked right.

Our waiter seemed to be overburdened, not attentive. Told us we'd start out with bread but never gave it to us (had to request it.) Coffee was free though! So that was good and the souffle was decent. Wife went to the restroom with no toilet paper in it. Perhaps we came on an off night. Willing to try again, but the price and distance makes me want to try other competent steak houses instead.

Sat at the bar for drinks and the bartenders were very attentive and the drinks were delicious.

Fabulous steaks, excellent service!,the place is cosy,and if you are lucky and Margaret take care of you !!!

Very overrated and very expensive place. The atmosphere is pleasant and the staff are courteous but the quality of the steaks is only passable and the selection of mediocre wines is very expensive. To avoid

It's pretty good but compared to Maestros it doesn't come close but it is slightly cheaper.

Great place for steaks and other food. The kong crab here is great. It gets served in a unique way. Somewhat pricey but worth it. The vibe is business casual. You see a ton of high-end fancy cars parked out front, but you don't have to be scared away by that. For appetizers, I recommend the calamari. For steaks, you can't go wrong with a ribeye.

Mediocre at best. The steak was overdone by quite a bit. It was so slow coming that by the time they could be made aware of it, everyone else at the table was well into their dinner. It would have been untimely to have it redone. They should have offered something, but they did not. Things happen, it isn't that they do, but how you respond. They did close to nothing. Prime steakhouse? Meh.

Excellent service and an excellent meal. The crab cakes and calamari were very tasty. I had the ribeye and it was cooked perfectly. Mashed potatoes and Mac n cheese were very good.

Parking has an option for valet ($7), or just park in the large lot for free. I would say the biggest drawback would be the cost.

OK 300 bucks for two steak and potato dinners with four glasses of wine may seem extreme but I would do it again... This place is Rib Eye Heaven. The wine list top notch.

Prime rib very tasty and tender. Enjoyed the baked potato. Definitely encourage reservations. They were busy.

I'm not sure what's going on with their steaks, but it seems the quality just gets worse and worse every time we come here. They overcooked my steak, but the manager was really responsive (our waitress was not on top of things...) and replaced it quickly. The flavor and tenderness, though, does not seem to be as good as it used to be. Probably won't be returning anytime soon...

Excelente, but a little pricey and the portions were small.

I was definitely greeted several times going in

The manager came by took his time to ask if everything was okay

The food was delicious it had a very tasteful unique vibe it only Fleming's can provide

They have their Fleming's mashed potatoes that you can only get there

You're going to spend a little over $200 for a nice 3 course meal for you and a significant other if you are being conservative and you add a desert.

I recommend the bone in ribeye 20 oz that you could actually share the cost is about $60 which is very cost-effective if you are on a budget

they have several variations and selections of steak sauce that you can ask about that go terrific with the ribeye

The price was unfortunately more extraordinary than the food.

Food is good, not great, when you put food and price together I personally don't think it's worth it but the staff is amazing, more than anything the experience is what makes it stand out

The filet was perfect medium rare and full of flavor. Couldn't be better. The cesar salad was light and flavorful. The scalloped potatoes were delicious. The asparagus was tasteful. Met my every expectation. Everyone at my table felt the same.

Very good food. Expensive, so it is for special occasions.

A fantastic, high-end steakhouse. The steaks are almost fork-tender, perfectly cooked, and delicious. The menu is a la carte, so you'll order your entree and however many side dishes you want to share with the rest of the table. The sides are also excellent.

My only criticism is the selection of side dishes offered: currently, they offer four potato options- mashed, baked, au gratin, and shoestring- mac and cheese, mushrooms, asparagus, brussel sprouts, creamed spinach, and onion rings. I'd like to see an option for more "green" vegetables, like steamed or grilled broccoli, without rich cream or cheese sauces.

Great steaks and seafood tower. Sides were average.
Seated downstairs in dungeon, different ambience than dining room at ground level - felt like I was in a cafeteria.
Knocked down a star for dungeon and sides.

Best happy hour and the most friendly best bartenders, then know how to take care of customers.

Upscale but very welcoming, relaxing atmosphere! Leo is the best bartender EVER!

The service was excellent and the atmosphere perfect for a business meal. We ordered a steak and it was delicious. Very good attention to costumers, and quick service.

The server was great but the host at the front was short with us because we didn't have a reservation even though the restaurant never files the entire 2 hours we were there, speaking of the 2 hours 2 tables on the patio sat didn't get reset the entire time in tact one sat with a cocktail tray on the seat, from the time we sat until after we left. We watch many staff members from hosts to manager a walk by as if it was nothing. if not for the great food and phenomenal server we had the experience would have been less than average

Maybe this place was overhyped to me but this is what I got an my opinion.

Appetizer: Colossal Shrimp Cocktail; I'm not a fan of cold seafood so not counting this.

Starter: Fleming's Chopped Salad; unfortunately and strangely, this was my enjoyed portion of my entire meal. It was good, not too much salt and not tasteless. Walnuts it's nut added a good crunch with a good taste.

Entree: Main Filet Mignon; this is the part I may have been overhupov about but I was sadly disappointed with it. It was good but it was not as good as places such as Mastros, or Ruth Chris Steakhouse, in my opinion.

Sides: Flemming's Potatoes; these were alright, weren't the best. It tasted like a highschool lunch entree to me.

Crispy Brussel Spouts and Bacon; just a no for me. I've had brussel sprpsprbefore and I like it but this time, just no.

Dessert: New York Cheesecake; this was good but the caramel they add on to it just killed it for me. My whole tabled agreed that it was too sweet and it was because of the caramel. Also, it was a small portion.

Brunch menu is extensive on Sundays. The Bloody Mary cart is impressive. We had the salmon egg Benedict and it was very tasty.

Service was lacking and parking was extremely difficult on a Sunday noon time.

Great food and atmosphere. Restaurant had a great vibe.

Disappointment! Before remodel I always felt that I was having dinner in a special place, it was much more intimate. Now it is more like a cafeteria atmosphere, sorry but I loved the old Flemings, always had a great steak there with the onion ring stack and lava flow cake always great, not so now!
Also not a cheap date now, it was never cheap before but at least you felt good when you left.

Tender and juicy steak prepared consistently good, the same kind of excellent quality perfected every time. You just have to experience the food yourself, this is heavenly.

We just tried this restaurant and food is always excellent, staff are brilliant and made us feel so welcome, can t thank them enough, will definitely be visiting again.

Had great family dinner on March 1st in Newport. As always the steak and lobster tail special was great,service was fantastic by an experienced server. I like their cocktails!

Food, service and everything is amazing. Priced too high, and the clientele is horrible.

Filthy store, narrow aisles, blocked aisles, poorly maintained. Half the citrus fresh produce has mold growing on it. Not a fan of the overall appearance of the store.

This spot is worth visiting. They serve big portions for fair rates. Constantly well organized and with excellent character. Will come back again.

Good services and good quality of meat (steak). Also they have good brunch menu.

Great high end place. I had the filet mignon with chili butter and a side of mashed potatoes. It was incredible I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

We had an amazing experience at this restaurant. We enjoyed the excellent ambience and the meals. The staff are very affable. I am happy we ultimately managed to try this place.

I have not been disappointed yet. Courteous staff and enjoyable food.

Great service and all our meals were done correctly and delicious...

Great service restaurant. Staff is helpful and friendly. Best to make reservations during busy holidays or Valentine's. I enjoyed their prime rib; easy to cut and tasted great. Their filet mignon was a bit dry but still tender. Would highly recommend their lava cake for dessert!

My first time there excellent service wonderful food

Enjoyed Lunch menu with several options. We had lobster bisk, ceasar salad, filet mignon, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. For dessert creme brulee and chocolate lava cake. Great server named Danielle provided excellent service. Food was exceptional and very delicious.

Flemings is one of the better steakhouse restaurants around. Their prices are a bit high but in my opinion that's just a reflection of the not only the superb quality of food but also the outstanding service they provide. Try their happy hour burger for $7 is pretty darn good!

Always great food and nearly refurbished dining area.

We always enjoy steak dinners here with family. Makes the meal feel like a special occasion.

The bartender was cool. Food was good. Bread service a bit dry, but all in all a good time.

Phenomenal food and service. Had dinner here for my 10 year anniversary and couldn't be happier

Very creative.brunch! I had the fiket mignon eggs benedict. You could have 2 of those, or 2 crab cakes benedicts or, one of each. Also the fried chix waffles were really good!

The remodeling was nicely done! Looks more open and comfortable, steaks are great as always

Great service. The bartender are amazing (Michelle and Mike). Located in Fashion Island near the Chase Bank.

Best aged meat thus far. our waiter was a little snobbish .. oh well....

Very impressed with the service and our server she did a fenaminal job attend us and good conversations. Please give her a raise,I did tip her well

Not at all Happy with the service or the treatment at this location.....SHAME !!!!!!

Everything about this place is fabulous from the drinks, I especially liked the blueberry lemon drop, pictured is a Cosmopolitan it was also delish and refreshing. The food was delicious, especially the fillet I had.

The food is obviously excellent here. But the staff is what makes this place what it is. The entire waitstaff and Jordan and her team up front are best in industry.

Very expensive for what you get but food is very good

Great place and great food. A little pricy if on a budget.

We went here for restaurant week and the food serving and quality are pretty good for the deal. Ordered filet mignon and seafood chowder. I was super full afterwards and I enjoyed the meal a lot. And our server, Julie, gave us good service and was very nice.
