Beautiful decor, great service, tasty food. Not too noisy. Our entrees were great but what stole the show were the dinner rolls and the corn Brule’ side dish. Great for a special occasion.

Probably one of the best experiences I've had in Orange County. From the moment you arrive they make you feel like you don't have to have it together because they make sure to share how to have the best experience. I knew the moment I received my cocktail and the complimentary bread that the apps and entree were going to be delicious as well. However I was not prepared for just how amazing the food would be, true definition of "chefs kiss". Don't walk but run and make your reservation today for the perfect date night, or date with your son like I did.

There are so many restaurants that are steakhouses in our area with seafood components. They generate fall short in the ability to have conversation portion size, etc., the team every single person we met was so great if you’re going to invest in a very special night, this will not disappoint.

A well oiled machine that prides itself on the customer experience. The staff are well trained, cordial and attentive to their patrons. The appetizers and steaks were loaded with a plethora of flavor. I’ll take this steakhouse over their neighbor any day, nevertheless this was our first time dining here so we need some track but a great first time. We’re due back in 3 weeks. I look forward to it. Thank you!

My server teffany was great! She was attentive and knew just when to check in on us. Every course was appropriately timed. The food was fantastic as always. Her server assistant Chase made a great dessert recommendation and he was a joy to talk to. Ocean 48 was fantastic and I’ll definitely be returning. 5 stars all around.
