Unbelievable service from the reservation adjustments earlier in the day, to the hostess who fulfilled our window seat request, to the extremely knowledgeable, kind, and personable waitress Becky. A wonderful evening for sure. Food was 10/10, and atmosphere was perfect. Even a chilly evening in Florida was perfectly warmed by heaters on the top floor patio.

Our second time here and Ocean Prime is clearly one of Sarasota’s top three restaurants. The food, ambience and incredible service is memorable. Our server Joe made the whole dining experience fun and pleasurable. He’s a masterful server.

Excellent service, fun and delicious cocktails, nice atmosphere, and overall very good food. Tried a wide variety of items and nothing disappointed, our favorite was the hamachi crudo. Only disappointed by the fact that two menu items we ordered were unavailable, the west coast oysters and the wagyu filet. Still enjoyed what we opted for instead so not a major issue. Other than that a great experience and will return soon. Great addition to the dining scene in Sarasota.

Three of us had great meals and look forward to coming back. The steak was cooked to perfection and the sides were delicious. Loved the Brussel sprouts as well as the truffle mac and cheese. Very interesting cocktails and nice wine selection. Our server Brian was very attentive and knowledgeable. Can't wait to come back and check out the patio and bar upstairs.

Our first time at this location to celebrate our 34th wedding anniversary and it was perfect. Service, ambiance, drinks and food were perfect. The lobster pasta is our favorite so so good. The carrot cake was the perfect sweet bite to end a lovely evening. Highly recommend you consider a visit. 5 stars!!
