    I celebrated my birthday at Ocean Prime recently and this restaurant did not disappoint. I was accommodated to a private dinning room which was stunning and intimate perfect for a night out. The staff were very welcoming, attentive, and the waitress Bridgette was amazing at giving recommendations. I’d like to say these are some must the Ahi Tuna Tartare, the blackened snapper, and the sea scallops. For dessert the butter cake is a must, it’s so rich and moist and pairs well with the ice cream and berries. Overall it was a birthday dinner well spent.

    We went for our annual NYC trip/date night. The managers and server were phenomenal. Unfortunately they were out of a menu item but the employees apologized multiple times and my second choice was amazing. The server was very attentive and on top of our bottle service as well as cleaning empty dishes. We definitely will keep this place on our list to come back to!

    A nice place with good environment. The food was very good, we ordered the Prime rib eye king size the ribs, and the skin potatoes. It would have been a plus if the waiter told us that we were ordering to much food for the four of us. A little expensive.
