Ramona & Jim: Caesar salad, 6 oz. Monroe filet

Well. 5 years. Five wonderful years married, and we could not think of a better place in Waco than 135 Prime, which has now become our official anniversary dining spot. Our server, Emily, did an outstanding job, and made this special evening even more memorable that we thought possible. Best of luck on her upcoming nuptials -- we hope she will be as happy as we are!

The appetizers we shared had the taste for a super intro to the main course. The three sauces with the giant shrimp were all interesting, and we could not decide which we liked the best. The bread was soft, warm, and delicious. The escargot was good, but we have to admit we like the recipe from Le Bec Fin better.

The filets were tender, juicy, and perfectly prepared. The lobster risotto as our side dish was a great compliment, as was the wine. Thanks to 135 for the glass of bubbly in honor of our special day.

The entire meal was exquisite with only one minor flaw -- the Caesar salads were nearly tasteless. Someone forgot the anchovies!

For any special occasion, 135 Prime offers the best experience in and around Waco. Don't let the price deter you! Your partner is worth every penny!
