Prime Restaurant & Bar

Top choice in Mandalay


Everything is outsized and every appetite satisfied at Prime. The menu covers Burmese, Southeast Asian and Western favourites, ranging from tea-leaf salads to roast duck, stir-fry Taiwan style, Thai fish cakes, imported steaks, pasta and burgers. The large outdoor patio area, lit up at night, is filled with covered picnic-style tables that are especially good for groups.

Live music is performed most nights and the indoor dining room and bar has an upscale, sophisticated vibe.
