    The best service in DC! I love how the place looks because it transports you to a different scene. One of the things that brought me back was the service from Christopher. At a corporate event with colleagues, he expertly guided us through the meal, making sure we had the best experience between each course. Everyone was blown away. This restaurant specializes in steaks, but the Dover sole is also incredibly delicious. The crème brûlée is just as good or even better than the ones in Paris. I hope I can come back soon.

    The dining space at Ocean Prime is well laid out, comfortable, and well appointed. The front of house staff was responsive and easily accommodated a seating request. Our server was well informed about the menu, engaging, and attentive without being in any way overbearing; it was a lovely balance. Our food was absolutely delicious; the quality of both the ingredients and the preparation were evident. We were also served at an excellent pace; courses arrived well spaced but not at overly long intervals. The wine list was varied and well worth a look. I would highly recommend Ocean Prime for an occasion where a lovely meal is the thing to have!
