Ocean Prime - Chicago

Lauren was a great server, and the food did not disappoint. Portions were plentiful and the flavor was amazing. We will be back!

Ocean Prime is a must to visit when in the area. Food was to die for and the service was excellent

I don't write reviews often, but felt compelled, given the prices..

I ordered the bone-in filet Oscar style, which I believe clocked in at $75 even. The cut was under-seasoned, lacked a good char (despite the menu touting 1200 degree searing), and was fairly tough, surprisingly.

Restaurants have off nights, and you can never go 100/100 on any experience. But, this was truly disappointing. I state all of this only to suggest you spend your hard-earned at Joe's, or Shaw's instead. Avoid Ocean Prime.. seems a tourist trap, sadly

There was a constant line or uninterested hostess up front. We bypassed and went to the bar but never did get seated for our reservation. The bartender was nice and personable and seemed to want to keep us at the bar. The Black Orchid drink was awesome but for the price of the food it was underwhelming but the views were nice.

Steaks and seafood were outstanding. Colorful drinks.
Expert wait staff. Can’t miss place to dine.

The service was the best I had in a long time! Thank you!

The service is super slow, made a 1.5h dinner to 2.5h just for the waiting. Even tho I have the reservation, I still waited for like 10min. Food is good tho.

Perfect dinner ! Food and service was very good and professional. I highly recommend it

Really nice vibe all around! Food was delicious and filling - we ordered 2 appetizers, 1 course, and dessert! Great all around

It was a perfect place to take my friend for her birthday!

Amazing service, food, ambiance, really EVERYTHING!

A spot to visit again. Professional service. Exquisite wines, and amazing menu.

Glad I chose to have my birthday dinner here.. Everything was amazing!! Literally everything!!

Charlie made my birthday supertacular! The food and drinks were wonderful too.

Amazing! Thank you!

I honestly don’t do a lot of reviews but I felt compelled to write this one. This was one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had. My wife and I celebrated our anniversary and everything thing from the food I had the (bone-in filet with the Gouda tots and creamed spinach) to the service, to the little extras they included (complimentary glasses of champagne and a complimentary dessert warm butter cake). Overall it was a top notch experience and I will definitely be back

Ocean Prime was awesome! Our waiter Darren made it a fun and special evening. The food was amazing! I had the snapper and my wife the filet. Both were delicious! We will be back again.

This was an enjoyable experience!! It was my birthday and the parade was also going on outside - the fireworks made it extra special.

I had the most spectacular time at Ocean Prime. My partner and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary and the entire staff made sure it was the most memorable experience. They celebrated us as if we were king time best friends. The service was great. The food was great. The ambiance was great. And every single staff member was great from checking in until the second second we walked out. The chef even came out and told us “happy anniversary, love birds!” It was the icing on the cake! They celebrated us with a complimentary champagne toast and our waitress, Mary bought us dessert. I was seriously fanning out. This was not my first visit but it was for sure my best experience. Make your reservation now, and order the corn. Haha. Thanks to everyone at Ocean Prime. Hats off to you all!

The service was outstanding! Loves the round booth with plexiglass for privacy and safety. We will be back!!

Our server Darren was absolutely amazing. He made our experience!

Made for a good date night. Steak temp was right on.

I am very impressed with the ambiance and overall service rendered. I would definitely recommend this establishment as well as be a returning patron myself. Hats off to the chef and the mixologist.

The service was terrible - would choose elsewhere for the money.

Un bello lugar, hice una reserva por mi aniversario y nos atendieron espectacular...la comita sabrosa, la atención perfecta y el lugar bello y romantico

We had a wonderful experience dining in at Ocean Prime celebrating my birthday. The server/waiter was very courteous. We also got the best table with a view by the window. Food was excellent. We believe the price for the food was little on the higher side.
Thank you.

Excellent food; however, disappointed with an $8 upcharge to add Bearnaise sauce to a $59 steak. Timely and efficient service. Nice views along river.

Delicious food for a celebration dinner. Great Ambience!

Birthday celebration

Returned after a previous “poor experience.”

This time everything was great! Our server Lauren was so sweet and took great care of us. Positive vibes, and great food all night. I even had a quick chat with the previous server Nicole (previous poor experience didn’t involve her.) Nicole is great as well. The servers are top tier here for sure. They literally want you to have the best experience and prioritize delivering quality service. I’ll specifically request Lauren or Nicole during my next night out. Thank you both!

Excellent and attentive service + excellent meal = one of my top 3 favorite restaurants!!

My wife and myself are visiting from Michigan, and decided to make reservations on Friday at 4:30. We're soo happy we did. Everything was perfect!!! From how we were greeted, to the hostess seating us, (awesome view) to our attentive and super cool server Jessica. (server 139) Every recommendation she gave was spot on and much appreciated. She was very knowledgeable, engaging and personable. She deserves a managerial position 😁 Our food was excellent too. We had the tomahawk steak, and it was cooked to perfection. Truffle fries, mac & cheese, drinks and dessert were excellent as well. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and we can't wait to come back 😊

First time going. We really enjoyed everything about the restaurant. Staff went above and beyond to meet our requests.

Beautiful atmosphere and top notch service. My sister and I were greeted immediately and shown our table. Our waitress Angelina went above and beyond between taking the time to explain the menu to telling us the best places we should visit while in town that the locals love. We ended up splitting a steak and ordering asparagus with hollandaise, garlic mashed potatoes, and mushrooms. Everything we ordered was cooked to perfection, flavorful and delicious. We also ordered the 10 layer carrot cake for dessert and this was the perfect ending to an already wonderful meal. We also recommend the berries and bubbles drink :)

Food, service and atmosphere were perfect. Great selection, attentive server and front of the house were welcoming and very sweet.

Low key, elegant atmosphere and great food. I had one of the best maki rolls ever!!!

Great Eats Amazing Service Great Vibes I Love It!

Everything about this place was top notch, from the drinks to dessert, and everything in between. Looking forward to coming back to Chicago and back to this restaurant

The food/waitress/drinks were amazing!! Will return in the future

Went there for wife's birthday - food and service were excellent. Gave her a nice comped dessert with a candle, it was great!
