Welcome to The Prewitt

“ We dined at the Prewitt last weekend and really enjoyed it! I couldn't resist having the filet and my partner in crime had the salmon. Both were perfectly prepared and gone too soon. Empire Strikes Back was playing on the big screen when we arrived (Yay!) and before we left, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull had started. After dinner, we moved the party upstairs to the lounge to enjoy the signature cocktails. I had a smoked Old Fashioned and my better half had the Gone with the Gin cocktail. We enjoyed the Chocolate Peanut Buttercup for dessert. Overall it was a great experience that we intend to repeat! ”

“ The Prewitt has been on my list for about a year. Newer. Converted, historic site in Plainfield. I was incredibly impressed with the building, service and amenities. We went in the middle of the week for dinner. There were less than 10 people in the entire restaurant. In a busy night, I'm sure this place is electric. In addition, it's great to pair with a Hendricks Live! event. Team was clearly well trained. We were able to watch a movie with dinner too, which I absolutely love. The only other place I've done this is Flix Brewhouse, and Flix has really gone downhill in the past few years (for a similar price honestly). Love it. Great add to Plainfield! ”

“ The Prewitt is an old theater in Plainfield restored to be an upscale dining establishment. There were parts of the building that did reflect the old ambiance of the theater making this a unique experience. I also noticed their website has several fun events such as weekly trivia and a movie showing! Such a great concept. Our server was friendly and attentive. Arriving at 5:30 on a Saturday evening there were only a few other people. I ordered the Short Rib Bowl and it was good. For this price point I did expect a little more in the way of taste. The website says they provide both casual and upscale dining. It seemed like it was more casual than what I was expecting, but with an upscale price point. It would probably be better if they focused on one or another. Regardless I still enjoyed my experience. ”

“ This was our first time to The Pruitt and it will definitely not be my last! We were greeted upon entering. We had a 4:30 PM reservation for New Year's Eve. There was no one in the restaurant yet...we were checked in and told they would be right with us. 10 minutes later we were seated. I'm not sure if this was due to us having a 4:30 reservation, but it was a little awkward. The ambience is delightful. A little swanky and definitely rustic with a twist of modern. From the exposed brick walls with slathered cement to the velvety chairs to sit at and enjoy a drink; all the while catching the flick on the screen. Note: the audio is not on for whatever flick is playing. (There is music playing, however.) I can see meeting up with some friends and enjoying the sitting area. I saved the best for last - the food! Kisses to the chef as everything was exceptionally tasty! From the side salad with chickpea croutons to the braised ribs with Asian noodles. Oh, and the homemade blueberry ice cream with limoncello cake was very delicious. For $12 it was a very small portion. Though this place is pricey, the food is exceptionally good. The ambience is different than your typical restaurant vibe. With the big screen playing and the dimmed lights just gives you an upscale feel. For evenings on the weekend, I would recommend making reservations. One more thing I forgot to mention they change their menu by the season. I really like that idea as well. A lot of thought has went into everything and it shows! Kudos to the owner! Were we supposed to get complementary truffle butter with popcorn chips? ”

“ When The Prewitt signed up for Devour, I knew there were no more excuses to put off trying it. We have stopped in for a cocktail, but had never tried their food. SO happy we finally did. On a busy Saturday night, we were able to snag two seats at the bar upstairs (there is one upstairs and one downstairs). I absolutely love the theme of the restaurant- its very movie theater-esque and the paintings on the wall make it fun. Our bartender was so nice, on it, and paced out our meals wonderfully. The boozy Tammy cocktail is incredible- I'm a sucker for lavender drinks during the summer, and this one was perfect. For my app- I ordered the wagyu corn dogs. Now, if you're thinking the same as me, I'm wondering how corn dogs were going to be made boujee. I will confirm that corn dogs can in fact be made boujee and taste better than any one you've ever had at the state fair. They had this mustard sauce and seeds on them that sent them over the top. I would travel for these corn dogs if I didn't live in town lol. Next, I had the short rib as my meal. It was an upcharge, but 100000% worth it. Best short rib I've ever had. It melted in your mouth, and there was some kind of cheesey grits that gave it the final amazing touch. For dessert, blueberry white chocolate cup. It was a HUGE portion, and as everything else, delicious. If you were like me and decided to wait, please don't anymore. We will be back so soon!! Thanks so much for opening!! ”
