    My wife, Sue, and I went to Ocean Prime to celebrate our 30th anniversary. When I made the reservation through OpenTable, I was asked if this was a special occasion so I stated that it was our anniversary. When we arrived and I gave my name, we were immediately wished, "Happy Anniversary!" by the hostess. Less than a minute after that, a young woman approached us and offered us free champagne and she also wished us a happy anniversary. In total, no less than employees of Ocean Prime wished us a happy anniversary. It was an incredible touch. Now, let's talk about our server, Mikiah. She was simply delightful - very outgoing and fun personality and we immediately bonded with her, especially since we both have ties to New England. She was sweet, kind, and very helpful when it came to the menu. Mikiah made this a remarkable experience for me and my wife, and we couldn't have been more touched by her genuine interest in our big night/celebration. When we go back, we will be sure to request Mikiah as our sever again - we love her!!! And, lastly, the food... It was absolutely incredible - from the calamari appetizer that we devoured to my wife's seas scallops, to my 10 oz. filet mignon and twice baked potato. Everything was prepared and cooked perfectly and as fresh as any food I've ever had at a fine dining establishment. Upon Mikiah's recommendation, my wife and I shared the warm butter cake to wrap up our evening and it was beyond words - every single bite!!! We can't wait to go back soon and try more of their phenomenal food!!!

    Italian Filet and Sea Bass were extraordinary. Hot and dirty martini was amazing. Service began with excellence but did not remain at that level. Appitezer and salad came together. Water glass was empty much of the night . Poured my own wine at a fine dining restaurant. Manager walked by but never acknowledged us. Noise level was as if we were in a nightclub with loud music and conversations bouncing off the walls. Could not have an easy conversation with the noise. Had dessert and the expresso martini came as we were finishing the excellent Butter Cake Valet had a text service which did not work. $10 for valet then asked for a tip.I gave a tip. Some of the best food in the world but the rest left me not desiring to return.

    Service was impeccable! Waiter, “Brentton” was very knowledgeable about the menu and food preparation. He was also very attentive and had a wonderful personality. Steak was cooked to perfection. Food was absolutely delicious.
