Prime 3 on Main Steakhouse

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

Where Three Visions Become One Table

Prime 3 on Main Steakhouse on West Main Street in Leesburg, Florida, was born from a simple after-work conversation. Three longtime friends — each coming from demanding careers in medicine and surgery — wanted a place where they could genuinely unwind: elegant enough to feel like an occasion, casual enough to feel like home. That founding spirit shapes everything about the restaurant today.

Classic Setting, Modern Touch

Step inside and the atmosphere delivers on that promise. A host greets you at the door, soft lighting and music ease the tension of the day, and the décor balances a classic sensibility with modern accents in the furniture and finishes. The bar, described by the team as a place to "uplift your spirits and perhaps acquaint you with new friends," anchors the room with a well-curated selection of spirits alongside the wine program.

American Steakhouse Cooking With Global Depth

The kitchen draws on American, Latin, and Asian influences in equal measure — three cultural backgrounds that give the menu its backbone. Prime meats, seasonal seafood, and fresh vegetables are the raw materials; the flavors, aromas, and colors of those three traditions are what make each plate distinctive. It's a confident approach to American steakhouse cooking that goes well beyond the expected, with Latin accents adding warmth and character throughout the menu.

A Wine List Worth the Recognition

Wine Spectator recognized Prime 3 on Main with its Award of Excellence in 2023, and the list earns that distinction. The team takes a curatorial approach — selecting bottles from around the world that range from easy-drinking everyday choices to rare, collectible vintages for serious collectors. The explicit goal is pairing world-class cuisine with wines that transport guests somewhere new, which is a fitting ambition for a steakhouse that already looks to three continents for culinary inspiration.

Lunch, Tapas, and Private Events

Beyond dinner, Prime 3 serves lunch on weekday afternoons and offers a tapas program alongside regular events including Ladies Night and pub crawl participation — making it a genuine anchor of Leesburg's dining scene rather than a destination reserved for special occasions. Outdoor seating and private party arrangements round out the options for groups.
