    Pain Killer.

    This new signature steakhouse is now open, located in the heart of the Eastport Town Center, and is ready to welcome you to an unforgettable dining experience that effortlessly blends savory delights with a personal touch of genuine hospitality. The chef-inspired menu is a brilliantly balanced variety of seafood & expertly marinated meats and more and can be enjoyed with enhancements & perfectly prepared accompaniments. With both indoor and outdoor seating, guests will be able to soak in the welcoming atmosphere of the warm wood tones & white table cloths, while basking in the amber glow amid the dazzling chandeliers. Darlene, my server recommended the Tuna Tartare-fresh marinated ahi tuna, crunchy cucumber slices, creamy avocado, crispy wontons & ponzu. Elevated elegance.

    Lobster bisque

    Service from Micah was great. Was my first time for visiting with my dad and we had a few dishes. Did the crab cakes, lobster bisque, French onion, special was a tomahawk steak with mushrooms, asparagus and mash potatoes. Everything was delightful and full of flavor. I would recommend the food here for special occasions because the ambiance is great.

    Last night we dropped in after walking Nadine Trail. We weren't dressed up but it was fine . Charlie was our server and Keegan kept the water full. My husband had a perfect cowboy cut steak and I had the seafood paparedelle. We left happy and satisfied .

    Absolutely service, food, location, dining room. Four of us had an early meal before a concert. My wife said the Fig salad was best salad she has ever eaten. The lamb chops were outstanding, I had the 6oz filet was perfectly cooked. Our server Spencer was great.

    Seafood Pappardelle.

    Man, what can I say. Fingers are crossed they improve their consistency and food quality. I understand it's The Villages, but we need flavor. We need chefs. Service is good. If you sit downstairs, Charlie is amazing in the main dining room and the staff at the bar, Chris, Maria and Noah are fantastic. Upstairs....well they're still trying to figure it out. It should casual, fun and uplifting. Leave the stuffiness downstairs.

    I so wanted this review to have more stars however it is not to be. I was looking for a nice restaurant to celebrate Christmas Eve and didnt want to drive to Orlando and with all the hype for this newly upscale local restaurant I made reservations. Very easy to navigate on their website. Beautiful decor and was seated quickly in a half booth with view of the outside area of the restaurant and this is where things go awry. It took aproximately 10 minutes for any server to greet us and let us know they would be with us shortly or order drinks. The assistant waiter Hannah came by ad filled our water glasses then our server Chase finally came to the table. Either he did not want to be working on Christmans Eve or he has the personallty of a wet noodle. A tray of meat is presented to each table for review of the cuts of meat available and complimentary fresh hot bread basket with butter is served. We ordered the Surf & Turf and the Filet & Shrimp Fondue. - Surf & Turf - while the wagyu ribeye was cooked to medium rare it had a char taste to it which ruined the flavor of the wagyu, the lobster was not buttery but overcooked and rubbery, the baked potato was barely warm could not even melt the butter or cheese on top and the asparagus also had a char taste - total disappointment in this entree and yes I did bring this up to managment but their only solution was to remake the entire dish, who needs 2 of an already ruined dinner. - Fiet & Shrimp Fondue was cooked was cooked perfectly and only complaint was the baked potato again barely warm - - Pseudo Hugo - this drink is non alcoholic and not sweet at all, very prominent lime & mint flavor, this drink was not for me even after I added simple syrup and ordered a Shirly Temple which was very weak in grenadine flavor and no Cherries in the drink at all. Not sure if it was the restaurant being newly opened or Christmas Eve but it was not a great experience and maybe willing to try again in a few months when the restaurant has been open longer in the mean time I will go back to FMK's other higher end restaurant Chop House.

    Tomahawk steak and sides
    Anthony A.

    Absolutely outstanding, I did not expect this dinner to be this good. The tomahawk steak was cooked to perfection. The staff was amazing, making sure everything was to our liking. Great recommendations from our server Nichole. Very comfortable dining room with even better views of the central lake area.

    Celebrated our grandparents 90th and 95th birthdays at the newest FMK location in Eastport! Prime and Ember is now open serving delicious steaks, seafood & cocktails! We had exceptional service and the restaurant is absolutely stunning with very clean bathrooms. I would recommend substituting a different side for the rice as it was very bland and hard.

    First time this restaurant in the new Eastport area of the villages. All I can say is well. Our meal was absolutely delicious. Service was wonderful. Find dining at its best. Everyone in our table had a different cut of meat. They were all melted in your mouth delicious. I love when you go out to eat and everything isn't rushed upon you perfectly timed from appetizer to dessert. Can't wait to come back again.

    Is the hate this restaurant is getting deserved or not please explain?

    It is NOT deserved. The menu choices are very good as well as the food. Service is above average and the atmosphere is that of a high end restaurant. It is not inexpensive…
