Best Date Night Restaurants in Kansas City

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.

What can I say? Another wonderful happy hour with my soon to be daughter in law! It was her first time, and she loved it. We shared the oysters Rockefeller, some raw oysters, the beet salad, and filet sliders. She had a special cocktail that impressed her. Wow! Love the music, JERRY the awesome guy at the front desk, the free valet, the entire wait staff, and the little special touches that made her birthday special. THANKS Jerry!

Amazing cocktails and delicious food that worked for everyone. They have options for gluten free, vegetarian, vegan, or carnivores. Delightful service and lovely atmosphere. I recommend it!

Enjoyed the Christmas movie themed Tinsel Town speakeasy. Sections were decorated for different Christmas movies (A Christmas Story, The Grinch, Charlie Brown Christmas, The Muppet Christmas Carol, etc.). Standard cocktails included a Christmas twist and were delicious.

The owner and chef, Amante, has done a phenomenal job in curating this menu which is off the charts. They employ the Japanese practice of dry aging fish, which makes the dishes, especially the sushi quite delicious. The bartender is world class and their cocktails are made with much care and attention to detail. The ambience makes you feel you’re somewhere in New York or San Francisco. I believe there’s a good value for the money which all in ranges from $75-$100 a head. I plan to return here quite often as it is one of the best dining experiences in Kansas City.
