About Us

We Are Playful Refined Pioneers

PLAYFUL

Our service is gregarious & enchanting.  Our spirit is energizing & uplifting. Our flavors are daring, our presentations are eye-catching, and our concoctions will stimulate your senses. Above all, your experience with us will always be a memorable one.   

The Patio offers an opportunity to unwind and enjoy al fresco cocktailing and dining experiences that are unheard of in Flushing. The ambiance is fun and uplifting, like the flights coming and going just off the airstrip right in view.

REFINED

We are obsessed with excellence, rooted in classic techniques and training. We fuss about the right things and have the expertise to back it up. We are dedicated to the finest product, preparation, and hospitality, elevating every step of the guest’s journey, from the first host greeting to the hand-crafted cocktail to punctuate the meal.   

Our Wine list has both familiar and unique brands, bottles, and vintages that have earned their place in our cellars. Our focus is to exceed expectations and have our acumen and attention to craft leave a lasting impression on our guests.

PIONEERS

From our US patent for our dry-aging process for beef to being the first Chinese-influenced Chophouse brought to market, we value originality and innovation. We regularly think outside the box, employing ingenuity to make for a unique experience.

As we Pioneer our concept, we trailblaze in a part of the city that is unexpected and unique. We have created a location and experience that is fresh, new and a must-see when visiting this part of town.

A New Breed of Steakhouse & Rooftop Lounge

Our menu is the marriage of two cultures through the combination of traditional Steakhouse and Chinese offerings, translating into playful iterations of the two cuisines. All are presented with the classic essence, refinement and boldness of an established American Steakhouse. And our U.S. Patent for dry-aging steak guarantees a new delight for your tastebuds that you won’t experience anywhere else.

Set high above the neighborhood, the seasonal rooftop promises to invite you in with the welcoming warmth of authentic hospitality and the allure of an elite rooftop experience. With bao buns & late-night snacks served out of a VW bus, a vibrant, energizing atmosphere, and views like no others, your senses will be inspired. PRIME Mēt, Steakhouse & Rooftop Lounge is THE go-to meeting place when you want to put your best foot forward. Whether for an intimate date night, a business meeting, or a special occasion dinner, present your taste with the confidence and refinement found within our dining room and whiskey bar.

Proprietary Dry-Aging Process

Our characterization of the best atmosphere thoughtfully controls our aging room, and also contains pink Himalayan salt bricks on a timed cycle allowing for longer periods of aging. This process allows the beef to absorb the salt's subtle flavors, creating extremely tender cuts, complex flavor profiles, and an irresistible umami taste. 

In-Room Dining

Whether in the early morning before a big meeting or at the end of a long day, we often seek the comfort of our own quiet space. With In-Room Dining, guests can enjoy the elevated cuisine of PRIME Mēt, Steakhouse & Rooftop Lounge without leaving their room. Ordered directly from an app on your TV screen, and brought to you “takeout-style” so there’s no need to maneuver a heavy tray or cart, the full restaurant menu is available for delivery to guests anytime the dining room is open.
