We came for brunch on an early Sunday AM with our two boys (10, 13) and had a wonderful time/food. Great service and really good menu for both adults and kids. This has become a go to place for us when we do periodic visits to the plaza. Thanks!

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.
