- SBShawn Burnes3 days ago5.0Which I got a better picture but I ate too fast. We walked in without reservations. Asked for anything for two. Bar, lounge,.. etc. They were all slammed. She kindly asked us to step aside & would see what she could do. She got us into a small table in the dining room which was delightful! More than we expected. We just ordered apps & a couple drinks. Drinks are standard. I got a negroni, my usual, which was made well. The apps though.... fantastic. Wife ordered tuna tartare which she loved. I had it over the everything "crackers", I'll call them, that were served in the bread basket. Bread & butter was great BTW. I ordered the surf & turf, which i was a little weary of because it was small servings or short ribs & scallops, which you can easily mess up.... They nailed it. Buttery scallops, not over cooked. & ribs done just right. One thing though. They serve it with a some mash, gravy, & a gremolata. My wife wasn't a fan... but that's because she enjoys the traditional short ribs with a nice red wine based or beef based gravy. I loved it. Added vibrancy. Anyways I digress. Great meal & our server was fantastic as well.
- RBReta ButmiJan 12, 20263.0Sorry but not satisfied. I had to put a simple drink order 3 times and I still didn’t get my desired strait shot of vermouth; I asked for a medium stake and it came rare; and my glass of water was left somewhere at the opposite corner of the table.
- TGTara GearhartJan 2, 20265.0Year after year we go to Ocean Prime on New Years Eve with the kiddos and it’s one of our favorite nights of the year. The last few years we have had to good fortune for Chef James providing a BTS look for the kids, showing all the hard work it takes for serving 900 people in one night. Our server, Yvonne who we also have had the good fortune of having wait on us the past 4+ years on this night, is also tremendous. We frequent this location throughout the years for date nights, corporate dinners, family celebrations, and girls dinners and every time it’s top-notch. The drinks are amazing, the food is always delicious, and the staff from check in to valet are so polite and welcoming. Thank you for helping make our end of year celebrations so specials- we can’t wait until our next time in!
- KLKristin LewisJan 1, 20265.0So fabulous. We came to celebrate our recent wedding anniversary (and New Year's Eve!) and were so pleased with everything - service, food, atmosphere. Everything was excellent. This place has so many happy memories and it never disappoints. Highly recommend.
- JRJoey RotondoDec 31, 20251.0This was my New Year’s dinner: two pieces of fish and two sliders, costing $500. The grand centerpiece was supposed to be a large piece of fish with Alaskan king crab, but it oddly resembled an Alaskan tentacle. I was served two cold, undercooked ravioli with a miserable sauce, and the fish was utterly disgusting. My wife was too nervous to complain, and my daughter only managed to eat one slider. The bill totaled $500, making it the worst dinner I’ve ever had.
