Great, classic steakhouse atmosphere and service. Our steaks and broccolini were good, but not hot enough. The calamari was tasty. It was our son’s birthday, and they gave him a complimentary cheesecake, which was nice.

We had a wonderful brunch on New Year’s Day, our server was so friendly and the Eggs Benedict and Walleye Hashbrowns that we chose from the menu were both excellent. We love Hell’s Kitchen for the festive ambiance during the Holidays and the food and service have always been great when we’ve come no matter what time of year!

Our server, Angel, and his peers are indeed Angels on earth. The attention to detail was incredible and impeccable. While service was slow, we also understood that it is Christmas Eve and they’re doing their best to make everyone feel as special as we did. The ENTIRE front of the house staff and the kitchen team deserve immediate 10% raises. That’s how fantastic they are.

All I did was add the “birthday” option to our reservation on Open Table and Oceanaire did not disappoint. From the moment we checked in at the host station, throughout the meal (the menus had “Happy Birthday” printed on them) to the Baked Alaska dessert, we were wished the happiest of birthdays and thoughtfully cared for by the staff.
