    I have never had a less than 5 star experience at Ocean Prime Dc. This is my family and my favorite place to come to when in the area. But last night I had the best experience I have ever had in my years of dining out. The food was amazing as usual! But the service we got was off the charts! Our waitresses, Jessica made our experience so amazing. Her energy, and presence she brought to our night made it 10/10. She is very well spoken and presents herself well, as well as she is a very kind person. She did an amazing job with her service and the small talk! We were here to celebrate a birthday and she did exactly that! Alone with the amazing happy birthday dessert. She surprised us with amazing and fun drinks! Thank you Ocean prime for another consistent amazing meal and THANK YOU Jessica for making our night, and dining experience amazing.

    Outstanding customer service/amazing ambience. I didn’t care for the Tequila cocktail but the regular and smoked Old Fashioneds were really good. Our steaks (NY strip/Filet) were seasoned well although mine could have been cooked a little more (requested med/well plus) I still enjoyed the cut. The sides (mashed potatoes and creamed spinach) were ok and the wedge salad was enjoyable. It was Avery nice experience overall!

    We were there celebrating a friend’s newly appointed executive position. OP did not disappoint! No stone was left unturned! The server was very attentive and excellently described the specials, so much so, our mouths were watering! Needless to say, we ordered way too much food and it all was absolutely delicious but the drinks!!! Bubbles and berries, bubbles and berries, bubbles and berries, speechless on how delicious this drink is…thanks Chris, the best bartender in the DMV.

    We celebrated our 32nd anniversary at Ocean Prime. The hostess greeted us warmly. Our sever Micaiah is the best! For starters, we had shrimp sautéed and ravioli. The first bite was like coming home to family you long for every day and will miss as soon as you’re gone again. The blackened red snapper with the corn emulsion was elegant but not pretentious. The warm butter cake was so good that I closed my eyes as the room fell peacefully silent. To Chef Izzy, Janel and entire the Ocean Prime family, Thank you!

    Another great experience at Ocean Prime. The food never disappoints, and the service is always amazing. This time, we had Stephan, and he was really great. He did a great job of anticipating our needs, making great recommendations and making certain that our drinks were never empty. I will definitely ask for him next time. That being said, I have never had poor service at this restaurant.
