    We were very impressed with the service! Drinks came out a little slow, maybe took 25 minutes? But food as requested was served really promptly! We loved their chicken meatballs and some of their sushi and their sliders; spinach dip, though very pretty was very hard to eat on little tables! Cocktails were a little on the too sweet side for me? Very hard to see the small menus and our food with a very dim lighting? But I’m not a young chicken anymore either! Hats off to this place for their very good work!  We were very impressed!

    This our 3rd trip to Ocean Prime celebrating our anniversary. Every time it has been excellent. Bree was our server and she was great! We both started with drinks. I tried the Berries n Bubbles and my husband had the Smoked Old Fashioned. I had the Lobster Bisque to start, and it was delicious. For our main entrees, I had the Wagyu filet and he had the Rib Eye. Both were cooked to perfection. We shared the Smoked Gouda tater tots and the corn. Since it was our anniversary we got to pick a dessert on the house. We have a tradition going back to the beginning of our marriage to always pick the creme brulee. And it was outstanding as well.
