Crema's Take
“PRIME at the Plaza is a café-restaurant hybrid with genuinely friendly staff and a rotating daily chef's special that occasionally hits the mark, but it's dragged down by severe food safety and quality control issues—reviewers have reported visible hygiene problems during food prep, spoiled or improperly stored ingredients, and wildly inconsistent execution that ranges from acceptable to inedible. At 3.6 stars, the risks (especially around the food side) outweigh the occasional decent day, and the pricing doesn't justify either the inconsistency or the concerns about how the kitchen operates.”

Good lord. I don't know where they get their "chefs" from but the food is sub par for the price they charge. Got some creamy chicken soup today and it's loaded with so much salt and pepper I can barely eat it. The soups are always some kids of weird mish mash and always LOADED…
