Where is Prime Eight Ten located in Flint?

Prime Eight Ten is at 4418 West Pierson Road. You may remember this location as the former home of Applebee’s before Ray Tyler opened Prime Eight Ten there in 2020. Since then, the restaurant has become a familiar place for many people in the Genesee County area to grab a bite, enjoy a drink, or spend a night out.

We certainly wish Ray Tyler and everyone involved with Prime Eight Ten nothing but the best moving forward. As mentioned above, this was clearly not an easy decision, and making it through six years in the restaurant industry is certainly something worth being proud of and celebrating.
