TK Prime Steakhouse — Restaurant in Kirksville

Five-Star Flavor Adventure: For around here, you simply must award TK Prime Steakhouse five stars. The food? Nothing short of excellent. 🌟 My personal choice? The filet mignon. 🥩

Prompt service. At TK Prime, they’ve mastered the art of timing, ensuring your dining experience is as smooth as a well-aged bourbon. 🕰️

Portions Fit for Carnivores: Brace yourself for generous beef cuts. The smallest portion clocks in at 6 ounces (though my filet might have been a tad smaller). That’s 454 calories of pure indulgence—buttery, juicy goodness. 🤤 Now, the “petite” cut of prime rib? A whopping 12 ounces—that’s 905 calories of flavor-packed goodness. 🥩

Intimate Ambiance, Big Flavors: The dining area at TK Prime is cozy, not cramped. You won’t feel like a sardine, but the owners might’ve considered a larger space. 🏡 The bar area only has 8 stools.

Reservations are a must—unless you enjoy playing foodie roulette. 🎰 The Price Tag: Now, let’s address the elephant (or should I say, cow?) in the room: prices. 💸 Yes, they’re somewhat shocking, but that’s the cost of indulging in prime cuts. Inflation has beef prices dancing like they’re at a fancy ball. 🕺💃 So, be prepared to splurge—$50 per person for dinner.

Beyond the Ordinary: TK Prime is an upgraded dining experience compared to what is available....

Service was great! Restaurant looks lovely. It's fancy enough for a nice date night out, but also didn't feel super uncomfortable to bring the kids to either. The food was decent but not much to the servings and a little bland on seasonings.

The potato skins appetizer was pretty good, but way more of the fries than cheese and bacon, they also come with green onions on top and sour creamon the side. I asked for Cesar dressing and just got a ceaser salad instead of a side salad. (My pic includes the tomatoes from my psrtner's garden side salad.)

The Lobster ravioli was delicious inside, but the sauce was really bland and the giant shrimp had almost no flavor. Fried fish was super good.

The kids hamburger is a smash burger so it's super thin and crispy. Unfortunately my kid did not like it. And the chicken is 2 large chicken tenders. They tasted pretty good and the steak fries were tender inside, crispy outside and seasoned really well.

The service was pretty quick on refills and very friendly, answering questions and being helpful. The food did take a long time to come out though and the kids were very impatient waiting for their meal since they didn't get a salad, so just FYI if you have kids who get hangry, you might want to get carryout or go...

We were there for lunch on a Saturday. It was not busy at all. The inside is very chilly. Service was great! Always had drinks, very attentive to our needs. The restaurant itself is gorgeous and has a lovely but demure atmosphere.

The food was 50/50. Filet mignon was not worth $47 MKT. The sirloin was fine, nothing to write home about. House salad was fine, ranch was from a bottle, croutons were incredibly tasty. The French onion soup was DEVINE. The mahi mahi was spicy, but good. The Parmesan crab dip was AMAZING, the chips that came with it were meh. Would have liked crackers or bread. We did get a plate of bread and butter for the table. The alligator appetizer was delicious and the breading on the alligator was best I’ve had on any fried appetizer, along with accompanying sauce. Coffee was tasty. Steak fries were HOT, and well seasoned. Kid’s Chicken nuggets were good also, we got 4 animal shaped nuggets with lots of fries.

I was worried I was dressed appropriately but in khaki shorts, white Banana Republic shirt and sandals I was fine. We did not purchase any alcohol. We won’t go back but we very much enjoyed the experience, just not all the food. (Pictured is French onion soup...
