Tuna Tartare atop Avocado and Soy-Lime Dressing

 Homemade Pasta Pomodoro Appetizer 



Executive Chef Bill Williamson loves to put a twist on classic dishes.  Traditionalists can start with a salad like the classic wedge or crab cake caesar.  Sushi lovers will opt for the fresh tuna tartare tower.  Expert tip: ask for the pasta pomodoro appetizer (not yet on the menu) which features homemade micro ravioli stuffed with mascarpone & ricotta and covered with sauce of blistered tomatoes.  If this dish were a song, it would win a Tony!

Crispy Tempura Eggplant Parmesan



The entrée options are elevated versions of simple crowd pleasing dishes.  We opted for the Crispy Skin “Salt Brick” Chicken which is served over a superb bacon and veggie summer succotash.  We also tried the Crispy Eggplant Parmesan.  A deconstructed veggie dish with tomato confit and tempura fried melt-in-your-mouth eggplant.

Chocolate & Peanut Butter Mousse with
Homemade Vanilla Bean Ice Cream and Chocolate Crown


Sweet ending:  Once you try the Chocolate Peanut Butter Mousse, you’ll want to give a standing ovation to the pastry chef at BLT Prime.
