Andreas Prime Steaks & Seafood has arrived in Uptown Dallas, taking over the iconic space that once belonged to Morton’s and instantly making it feel alive with energy and elegance. Walking through the doors, you’re greeted by a sense of refined warmth — polished yet inviting, luxurious yet approachable. This isn’t just another steakhouse; it’s a place where every detail, from the plating to the atmosphere, is thoughtfully considered. The vibe is modern Uptown with a touch of European sophistication, the kind of spot that feels special the moment you step inside.
At the helm is chef-owner Andreas Kotsifos, a Greek-born culinary craftsman with decades of experience that spans from Manhattan to Dallas. His vision for Andreas Prime combines the traditions of a classic steakhouse with the elegance and finesse of European cuisine. Having previously led the kitchen at The Palm in Dallas, Andreas brings a deep understanding of hospitality and a knack for balancing bold flavors with meticulous technique. His approach is polished but never pretentious, a philosophy that translates perfectly into every dish served here.
The menu reads like a celebration of indulgence, offering both steak and seafood in equal measure. Prime cuts of beef, including tender filets, ribeyes, and even ultra-rare Wagyu, sit alongside signature creations like Beef Wellington, a masterclass in flavor and presentation. Seafood lovers are equally catered to, with dishes like lobster mac & cheese, Bouillabaisse, and Chilean sea bass delivering richness, freshness, and complexity. Starters and appetizers set the tone for what’s to come — oysters on the half shell, lobster bisque, and decadent seafood towers that make you pause, glass of wine in hand, and just soak it all in. Even desserts make a statement, from rich chocolate creations to inventive takes like a Dubai-inspired chocolate cheesecake, ensuring every course ends on a note of delight.
Adding a whole new dimension to the Uptown experience is Bar Cosette, the intimate cocktail lounge tucked inside Andreas Prime. With its velvet seating, warm lighting, and Parisian-inspired ambiance, it’s the perfect place for pre-dinner cocktails or a late-night nightcap. The bar carries a curated selection of classic and contemporary cocktails, and the restaurant’s private wine locker program invites collectors and enthusiasts to engage with wine in a personal, hands-on way. It’s a space that encourages lingering, conversation, and celebration — a natural extension of the chef’s vision for a restaurant that’s about more than just a meal.
Andreas Prime is more than the sum of its parts. It’s a destination, a gathering place, a showcase of craftsmanship and hospitality. From the first bite of a perfectly seared steak to the last sip of a well-balanced cocktail, every element works in harmony. It offers Uptown diners an elevated experience that doesn’t feel stuffy, blending luxurious dining with genuine warmth. In the hands of Andreas Kotsifos, steak and seafood are not just meals — they are celebrations of flavor, technique, and the simple joy of gathering around a table in good company.
The addition of this Uptown location brings the energy and excellence of the Allen original to the heart of the city, giving Dallas a restaurant that feels both exclusive and welcoming. Whether you’re coming for a prime cut of beef, a decadent seafood creation, or a carefully crafted cocktail in Bar Cosette, Andreas Prime invites you to slow down, savor, and immerse yourself in a dining experience that’s thoughtfully executed and joyfully alive.
