    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!

    It was early dinner. Everything was nice. We enjoyed the Lobster Bisque, House Salad, Caesar Salad, the Blackened Snapper, Sea Bass & 8 oz. Filet. We took our desserts home. 😁

    We dined in for our anniversary dinner, and the experience truly made us feel special. It’s rare to find a restaurant that decorates the table with rose petals — such a lovely, thoughtful touch. The ambiance was elegant and cozy, enhanced by dim lighting that set a perfect romantic mood. Our server was very knowledgeable of the menu and his assistant was attentive the entire time; refilling our waters and clearing the plates for the next course. I opted for the Black Orchid cocktail, but unfortunately, it fell flat—underwhelming and lacking in flavor. On the other hand, my boyfriend tried the Whiskey Clover, which he thoroughly enjoyed. The combination of Hennessy and orange juice was surprisingly well-balanced and refreshing. For our appetizer, we ordered the Calamari, which was the best I’ve ever had. It came with a delicious sweet chili sauce and was garnished with julienne carrots, green onions, and bean sprouts — a fantastic blend of flavors and textures. For the entrees, I chose the Lobster Linguini. The lobster was cooked perfectly tender, though the pasta was slightly overcooked. Despite that, the dish was enjoyable overall. My boyfriend went with the 16 oz Ribeye Oscar style, which was absolutely to die for. The homemade tater tots were packed with flavor and a great complement to the meal. The corn, however, didn’t stand out and was nothing special. The carrot cake was delicious as well, but I prefer it warm. All in all, a memorable dinner with great food and a warm atmosphere — definitely a place to celebrate special occasions.

    Service was slightly on the slow side although, I prefer this over being rushed. The only exception being when there was a problem with my cocktail. I immediately pointed it out and the server apologized and took it back. I didn’t see another cocktail for at least another 10 minutes. When a food error is made, the correction should be expedited.
