    Restaurant is beautiful. Oysters Rockefeller were the best I’ve ever tasted. Carpaccio was also outstanding. Fillet steak and scallops were also extremely delicious. Deserts did not let us down. It was a beautiful evening and we were happy we went.

    **Ocean Prime Dinner Review – Bar Lounge Experience** Ocean Prime truly delivered an exceptional dining experience in the bar lounge! From start to finish, the evening was a perfect blend of ambiance, service, and culinary excellence. Our group of four opted for a mix of dishes that showcased the restaurant’s range, and each one was an absolute delight. The **Seafood Cobb Salad** was a standout—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Both the **Filet Mignon** and the **Ribeye Steak** were cooked to perfection, tender, and full of rich flavor. The attention to detail in preparation was evident with every bite. The sides were equally impressive, complementing the main dishes without overpowering them. The additional **side salad** was crisp and refreshing, a simple yet elegant accompaniment to our meal. The atmosphere in the bar lounge added to the experience—sophisticated yet relaxed, making it an ideal spot for an upscale yet comfortable evening. The service was attentive and friendly without being overbearing, ensuring we felt well taken care of throughout the night. Ocean Prime is a must-visit for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. Whether you’re craving expertly prepared seafood, steak, or a mix of both, this spot hits all the right notes. We’ll definitely be back!
