We had a table of 4, the food was simply outstanding! And the cranberry sangria was out of this world ! The men had the prime rib sandwiches and said it was probably the best they ever had. Also ordered two different soups and both were delicious . The ladies had the vegetable and goat cheese flatbread . Yummy all around!

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.
