Reviews of Ocean Prime (Night Club)

Michael Chen

My group came to this restaurant for restaurant week and the three course meal is extremely worth the $35 price. I ordered the calamari appetizer and it was nice and crispy but there was way too much sweet sauce on it. Everyone at my table ordered the steak entree and the serving staff was very accommodating when one of our steaks came out more well done than requested. In less than 10 min another steak was delivered and the waiting staff waited for my friend to cut into her new steak to ensure that it was cooked to the right temperature. The dessert selection was marvelous and I would recommend the carrot cake. I normally don't enjoy carrot cake but Ocean Prime's was great.

Customer service was great! The food was good nothing spectacular. It's a nice place to go if you want to get dressed up and nice dinner date.

candice hodge

Nice place for a date or to celebrate..(fine dinning)

Patricia Brown

We were here last night for restaurant week. Dinner was teriyaki salmon with sticky rice. It was excellent. The waiter was the best Maverick he was just a great human being making dinner an experience.

Katie Maus

This was THE BEST SALMON ever, and I live near the beach, so I know my fish! Staff was extremely professional but not pretentious. The Spinach was a bit to salty for my taste. Deviled eggs were creamy whipped deliciousness. PROPS to the chef!! Worth every dime.

Cathryn Ortiz

Celebrated my birthday during Restaurant Week. Atmosphere, food and staff was superb. The service was 5-star. I will definitely be returning.

Andrew Johnson

Food was good with good quality. Service was great too

ShellyAnn Thompson

We loved everything about this place. The service was great and the food was absolutely amazing. We definitely reccomend. Can't wait to go back.

Miyu Ono

Came during restaurant week for dinner. While this place is known for their steak I would also recommend checking out other dishes as well- the chicken was great as well. Portions are sizable (even during restaurant week!) And service was very friendly. Dessert was too sweet/ rich to finish but otherwise great meal!

Karen Kirby

went here for Restaurant Week place was kind of crowded Services quick fast and delicious

Tamika Willis

I'd rather it have been more quite but considering it was "Resturaunt week" you could imagine how noisy and busy it was. Even with the loudness and all the movement our waitress was awesome! Got me and my partner order right, and also got our food to us in a timely manner. The food was DELICIOUS!

Sandi Mills

Fine dining at it's best. The first thing that I always order is the carrot cake! I want to make sure that they save a piece for me for dessert. Next I order the smoking shellfish tower, that is a must. We will also usually always order the dutch harbor king crab legs and the 16 ounce ribeye and for side we order parmesan truffle fries and black truffle mac and cheese. I definitely recommend Ocean Prime to all of my friends.

The Sac Travel Man

Food ambiance. Perfectly good place for date night out

Felicia Diaz

Great service! Will go again

Erica Mason

The environment was nice and elegant and the service was pretty good too. I liked the food but I wasn't blown away by anything. For a meal that was $200+ for the two of us I would have expected food that's quality was above and beyond. Nice to go to but I likely won't return next time I'm in town, I didn't feel I got proper value for the money I spent.

Jessica Valdez

One of my favorite restaurants and I definitely prefer Ocean Prime over Del Friscos after being to both restaurants numerous times! The price is reasonable, the dishes are delicious, drinks phenomenal and customer service is great. This place is great for dates, birthday dinners, holidays or just a dinner night out. ❤️

Kevin Roth

The staff is always super friendly, my order is never wrong, and they even greet me by name in the morning.

max verdi

I have to start with dessert, the carrot cake is excellent and you must try it. If my wife had her way we would be here 3 or 4 times a week just for the carrot cake. Of course the rest of the menu is outstanding. Every item of food is cooked and flavored to perfection. The staff is awesome, polite and friendly. Definitley a place we keep coming back to.

Donna Goodman

Sexy atmosphere. Drinks a little pricey but worth it.

Jennifer Clerisson

I dined here for restaurant wk. The food, service and ambiance were great. This is a nice option for date night. Approprite clothing is required as it should be. I would return but likely for restaurant week because of the high cost of the regular dinner menu.

sakinah sells

John Pacewicz

Well-prepared seafood, with selections that you can't get in too many places.

Thomas Kotarski

Surf and Turf sundays. Great deal, great service. Our waitress was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. Suggested great wine pairings with what we normally drink to what we were thinking of ordering.

Tawana Preston

Delicious our waiter Jerome the Sagittarius was amazing!!!

Kellie Joseph

Dinner lecture here. Space was lovely with a great view of downstairs bar and not too noisy. Event coordinator jumped right in heels and all to get video up and functional. Appetizers crab cakes, calamari and goat cheese raviolis ALL fantastic wished they offered extras. They took special care cooking for one attendee w allergies..that usually doesn't happen in these settings. Servers attentive and prompt

Mystic Diy's

Food and service was amazing! Try out their happy hour. The servings are large size and the bartenders are great!

Norm Miller

The best in town....C.C. That is.

Claudette Prather

This restaurant was great! The food and service was amazing. My husband and I were there to celebrate our Anniversary. We were given complimentary champagne and dessert. Definitely would recommend this restaurant to family and friends and would revisit again for a great meal.

Luz Norman

Eugenia is such a fabulous chef. We enjoyed every bite of our steelhead and mussels. The Caesar salad is also a must; super fresh and flavorful. And we suggest you opt for the sake Bloody Mary. We can't wait to return.

Adrienne Holmes

Lobster's were delicious, host and waiters very friendly and helpful. My aunt turned 70 and she was impressed with the whole atmosphere and presentation. When we opened our menu it read Happy Birthday Donna, that's love. Their food and drinks made want to come back without an occasion. 5

kamron and tyler the gamer

Second time going here and I love it! My favorite are the scallops, the steak was good but the presentation is not that great, simply plain. Their crabs legs are just regular for the price they charge, I honestly taste better crab legs, needs more seasoning. Love the berries and bubbles , had 3 of them. Spent close to 800 for 8 adults and I'll definitely be back.

Alex Newman

Ahi Tuna was pretty good! And the bread was warm

Rob

Phenomenal. I had the best pork chop of my entire life. The service was top notch. The space was very swanky yet comfortable. Our server, Carol, was the best I had in the city. We will make sure this is a frequent haunt moving forward!

Shane A

The service is what makes this restaurant stand in a lane of its own. From management all the way to the host. Nick and Amanda the cocktail extraordinaries exemplify true ingenuity! The libations prepared for me blew my mind and Ocean Prime is lucky to have such talent at its establishment that’s invaluable. Please stop in and try a cocktail or two, you’ll be glad you did!!

Kevin Mandell

Delicious food. Superb service. Pricey unless you dine as part of a special promotion such as Restaurant Week as I did.

Janine Womack

The food and service was amazing

Wendy Reeves

Fabulous inside. Carol.my server was great. Food was fantastic. .had surf and turf which was amazing. Chatted with a nice guy who studied in England and supported West Ham.

Dayana Roberts

I had my 25th Birthday celebration here with a party of 12 including myself. I was in contact back and fourth with the restaurant for about 2 weeks just making sure everything was right and going over details. I talked with Lindsey, and she was the most sweetest and helpful person ever. My dinner party reservation was about 3 hours long, that gave enough time for people who arrived late to still enjoy their food. The service was great, fast & friendly. I would definitely go back here on a smaller scale.

Anthony

This restaurant is extremely expensive the food it’s OK but definitely too expensive

Jasmine Brown

Loved it. Food was delicious, service was great, drinks were flowing

Joseph Satchell

Everything is always very good.

Charles Oshea

Excellent food but I felt a little under dressed in shorts and a t shirt.

fassir fa

Food was great service great a real A 1 place

Chris N

Did an after work happy hour. Spacious, apps were good, drinks were potent. Nice crowd.

Denio Perez

Good Philly Steakhouse. I had the Chilean Sea Bass which was a pretty small portion. I had to go for a protein shake after. But my friend liked his Sirloin Steak.

Lyne D

Beyond! I chose Ocean Prime for my 40 birthday celebration based on reviews and pictures of the restaurant. The experience was BEYOND my expectations. Working with Lindsay was so easy. We were able to curate an event for the history books. My guests were so impressed with the restaurant and food, that I've been asked on numerous occasions for a redo. Others are thinking about planning their own dinner's here. Pictures below are from my event photographer: Maria J Photography. Great food, great ambiance. It was everything I wanted.

Stephanie Langston

The food and drinks were delicious! We went there for restaurant week. Nice decor and service was excellent. I had the crab cake sliders for happy hour and they were some of the best I've ever had! Dinner was the teriyaki salmon with sticky rice and lemon sorbet for dessert. And we had the berry bubbly martini, which is divine. They have valet parking, or there is a garage a couple of doors down, but no free parking. Very nice mixed crowd of younger and older people. Will definitely go again!

Krystal Yore-Evans

Friday after Thanksgiving and the food was awesome, atmosphere tremendously appointed, service spot on. However, the space was cold and drafty, we were told due the space being closed for the previous day it would take time to heat up. We ate in our winter outer garments so let that be a testament to how good the food really is...

William Dunscomb

Expensive, but chic stylish decor and great food and wine list. Steak in a seafood restaurant can be iffy, but the 14oz NY strip I had was spectacular and cooked perfectly.

Elijah Tard III

Always delicious everytime. The blackened snapper and halibut were very good, and also had the lobster mac n cheese and brussel sprouts.

Alfred Ambrosano

Great steak, awsome carrot cake.

Nia Iriss

Food wasn’t great but good. Service definitely worth it

Xavier Jackson

FOOD WAS AMAZING. PERFECTLY COOKED MEDIUM LAMB CHOPS AND PERFECTLY SEARED CRAB CAKES. WAS MY FIRST TIME THERE AND I WILL BE BACK

Tim

Beautiful classic American restaurant with excellent food and service. Seafood was particularly delicious and notably wonderful cocktails.

Kristy Simon

Our dining experience here was pleasant from the hostess greeting us at the door to our waiter making sure we had a wonderful meal ...thank you!

Patti Pozella

Private party. I had a delicious salmon dish. Service was excellent!

Matthew Sampson

9-21-19 was my first time visiting. I was truly pleased with the service. We had a party of 10 and the waitress handled everything so smooth. She got every order correct it was wonderful. I will definitely be returning.

Dan Kane

Service started off a bit slow, but then improved greatly. Our waiter was very helpful and friendly. All of our food was great. But what was really over the top were the desserts! Even though we all vowed we were too stuffed to eat another thing the four of us devoured all three desserts! In fact, one was a gift from our waiter to celebrate our daughter's start of her freshman year at college. We all waddled out stuffed, but happy. I highly recommend a visit.

Sydney Newkirk

This restaurant is elegant, beautiful, and the lighting really set the mood. I had the pleasure of having the freebird farms chicken with black truffle mac and cheese, which is to die for by the way. For dessert I enjoyed the chocolate cake, and I don’t even usually like chocolate! Everything I had that evening was of the finest taste and quality, and I will be back very soon!

hassanatu micheal

Food took 1 hour to come out

Gustavo Gonzalez

I got invited to go with some friends to go to this restaurant and I gotta say after I left my car in valet which was super easy rather then self parking and having to worry about tickets or getting towed. Walking in felt like I was in a mansion super beautiful and luxurious the front desk people were very friendly and nice the bar has so many drinks and the popcorn the bartender gave us while we wait for the rest of our friends was like no other. When our friends came we sat down on our table and the surver was great and did answer our questions about the foods. I had a 10oz filer mignon it was delicious I would recommend anyone with the money to go there. It's not cheap at all for my wife and I was 100 bucks plus tip I usually tip at least 30

Corinda Fulton

THE LOBSTER MASHED POTATOES ARE AWESOME AND THE LOBSTER TAIL ALSO THE PORTERHOUSE PORKCHOP AND GOAT CHEESE RAVIOLI , OH BOYYYY !!!!!!!! UMMMM MMMMM GOOD

Aubryana Galloway

My boyfriend brought me here for our first anniversary. In celebration we started our evening with champagne and a congratulations from our waiter. Customer Service is phenomenal. The food was great, I could go on and on about how delicious everything was. One of my new favorite restaurants!

Tyrone Manley

MY WIFE AND I LOVED IT, FROM THE ELEGANCE AND PRESENTATION OF THE RESTAURANT. TO THE AWESOME AND KNOWLEDGEABLE WAITER WE HAD FOR THE NIGHT, AND THE BUS MAN MAKING SURE OUR TABLE WAS CLEAN EVERY TIME HE WALKED BY. I GIVE OCEAN PRIME 10 STARS

Uyiosa Osayande

Went in for Valentine's day dinner. The ambience is great especially if you get a booth. The food on the other hand is okay. Definitely not worth the $200+ I paid for a two person dinner. The steak which I asked for well done came back burnt, and for $50 a bit too small. Not a bad restaurant by any means but definitely an overpriced one.

Andrey Burczov

My wife and I went for a nice seafood dinner and were blown away by the experience. Our waiter was so professional and personable. Wine selection was excellent! His recommendation for crab cakes was above our expectations! Delicious! Highly recommend

Zuly C.

I love love ocean prime, not only the food is delicious , the atmosphere and the people that work there make you feel welcome.

Kairene Wiggins

Love it. One of our favorites

susan bernard

Delish like we expected and got my favorite bubbles and berrys to kick off the night!!!

Aaron Henry

Seafood and the atmosphere at this spot is great. Came here on a Saturday. The service here is better than most. It has a good atmosphere.

bpm22915

classy service and delicious food

Kevin Wallace

Really enjoyed OP, the food was good, on par with what you'd expect for the price, but the thing that got me was the service, everyone and I do mean EVERYONE was professional, genuine and kind, they all smiles or had a pleasant demeanor. If you dont think this is important, she'll out $500 bucks for a dinner with grouchy, incompetent, incoherent service and you will change your tune. OP is on my repeat list, and when you go, it will be on yours!

Msclark1210

Great seafood good service

Rich H

Great service, ask for Mike

Lionel Ames

Nice Place 2 Go Diner With Your Family & LOVE ONE'S...

Scott Fullard

Everything about this restaurant were awesome. My ribeye was amazing and the staff were extremely professional and efficient.

diana brown

I ordered the Seabass with macaroni & cheese and it was so salty I could not eat it. The spinach was also very salty. The food took a long time to come come to the table. Our waitress was very nice but the food was not tasty at all. I was not impressed and will not be going back no time soon.

Lindsey Hughes

Absolutely wonderful service, food, and atmosphere. From the moment we walked in to the time we left, the staff was pleasant, professional, helpful, and attentive. Everyone in our party of ten liked their food which included salads, soups, main entrees and desserts as well as their drinks. I had the house salad, chicken, creme brulee, and large variety of sides (the table shared 5 sides). I also had the black orchid cocktail which was amazing. Not a place to be missed while in Philly.

Geoffrey Bird

Large scale and pricey chain seafood restaurant, but service, skill, and menu more than made up for the painful hit to our AMEX. Classic old school service felt attentive and warm, but not over bearing. Bombay Sapphire Gibson martini was well done. My wife and I lucked out being seated in a large comfy 6top booth, right near some jackwagon at the bar having a very loud conversation on his cell phone *on speakerphone*, so that was awesome. Crab cocktail and Blue Point oysters were flawless, house salad was nicely split for two, and entrees of Florida Grouper and Scallops were perfect. Wine glass pairing recommendations were on the mark. We'll definitely be back, as soon as we can arrange the financing!

Mrs. McCorry

It's the type of dinner that you hope for and are absolutely delighted to have. Our server, Michael, aka Irish Mike, was quite personable and very attentive. Not once did we have a need for a beverage refill. They have a fully stocked bar. Nick, the manager, made sure to introduce himself, and made sure everything was as we liked it. The complimentary bread included pretzel rolls, which is a novel idea. Our steaks were cooked just as we asked for and the brussel sprouts were as good as we've had. Don't leave without dessert! The warm butter cake is perfection. I'm quite pleased at having visited this establishment and I look forward to returning. There are private rooms for large parties as well as valet service and coat check. The decor is quite pleasing to behold and our booth afforded us plenty of room for all our food. Well done, Mr. Mitchell!

Youssouf DIALLO

The food was great but their parking agents insisted that we paid before we even get their service. I mean before we even went inside the restaurant. When we came back to pick up our car, I saw him tell other clients that they pay when getting their car back. When I asked him what happened with insisting that my family and I pay before we could even got out of the car, he couldn’t answer. I never understand, if it was because I am black but I am not sure. Good food but bad service from your valet. I would teach them how to treat each and everyone of the client equally with equitability.

SWAT Rivera

Great food and drinks.

Nia Daye

Went for Restaurant Week in January...food was great! Really enjoyed my salmon and the dessert. Our waitress was also great! She was helpful in us giving descriptions and opinions or certain dishes and, overall, she just had an amazingly great personality. Would recommend anyone to go there and hope to go back soon!

Deon Witcher

Butter cake melts in your mouth

LC Collins

This place is amazing. I love the ambience of the place. Service was great and food was delicious. I had the surf and turf as my appetizer and the sea bass as my main meal. Both were incredibly delicious. My wife had the crab cakes and lobsters mashed potatoes on the side. We went on our anniversary and after our meal the gave us two cups of champagne and a carrot cake which was very good. We had a great time here and we would definitely come back.

Dontaye Alighieri

For our Anniversary my wife and I wanted a nice quiet night out and some where gud to eat. Our experience was great ambiance was great service was great the food jus didn't live up to the hype. How ever the butter cake was 5 star.

James West

A little overrated they have TV's in Bar area it took away from the Feeling you in the fine dining establish

Diana Russo

Food and service were awesome

Chef Damian Smith

Most elegant atmosphere, in dontown Center City Philadelphia . Delicious and delightful dishes, to choose from. Excellent seafood, and steak menu! Professional serving staff, Hosting staff and general manager are all very attentive and polite! My go to restaurant in Philadelphia!! Always a great experience when I dine here. Five star dining indeed!!

jamie alosi

Awful experience. Do not waste your $$.

Ashlie Mascara

Beautiful atmosphere, amazing service and a wonderful meal.

Sherenia Hylton

Food and service never fails!! I went for restaurant week I dont eat meat, so I decided to take the salmon. I always say I dont like salmon but Ocean Prime was delicious!!

Kaylee Jones

I ordered the surf and turf, and it was incredible. The oysters were also great. Very expensive, but worth it.

ari mayteles

Very elegant place. Loved the sauted rat brains

Liz Vando

Great service and great food. The seafood tower was to die for. Doesn't look like a lot but will fill you up, especially if you have the lobster bisque too.

Robin Robinson

Great happy hour drinks

AC

Pricey but worth it. Who cares about the price when the food is absolutely delicious! Worth every cent! Great menu options. Great scenery. Very satisfied !

Tat Ros

Absolutely amazing! Alissa was our server and she was nothing but wonderful. Everyone, including the manager, wished us a Happy Anniversary! Other serves would even check on us to make sure we were good. The calamari was the best I have ever had in the area. Well worth the money for amazing food and customer service.

Brian Jason Turner

Had the Chilean Seabass!! Very good.

Cecilia M

Amazing place! My waiter was outstandingly charismatic and helped me and my boyfriend order our dinner. We both got steaks and let me tell you, they were the best steaks we’ve ever had. Super juicy and flavorful. Our server also made me a surprise mocktail and it had smoky bubbles coming out of it!!

Jonathan Rothblatt

June/2018 was the second time I dined here. The first expierence was for a business dinner while working at the convention center. My wife and I came here for a date the second time. It was great both times. Excellent food with amazing service. Wouldn't go anywhere else for steak and seafood in Philadelphia .

Tiffany Bitcoin

The restaurant is very nice. The Chilean sea bass was awesome, but you won't be stuffed. The warm butter cake was so amazing.

Angela Wellman

I don't give out a lot of five star ratings , and I knew how pricey this place was when we booked it, but really feel it was worth every penny. Even the popcorn at the bar was seasoned with something that made it delicious. Our server Tripp was excellent and the ambiance was wonderful.

Johnnie Jones Jr

Great Food and Atmosphere, will visit again.

Costas Politakis

Ambiance is great. Service was slow and had to keep asking for new plates. Not well setup for groups who want to do sharing plates

Malik Nelson

I brought my wife here to celebrate our anniversary, and it's probably one of the smartest things I've done this year. She absolutely loved it. The service was beyond exceptional, Joel B planned the night for us and we were waited on by Jerome and Brandon. The attention to detail was amazing, before my wife could think to ask something Brandon was already bringing it out, Jerome made sure that we received the attention we needed while simultaneously giving us privacy to enjoy our date night, and again Joel put it all together for us. I couldn't be more grateful, this was a true 5 star experience for us.

Randall Vollen

Shrimp cocktail is the best I have ever had!

Claudio Del Valle

Excellent food. Service was exceptional. We had the same waiter from a year ago and he remembered us. Went here for my graduation dinner.

Shawn Brathwaite

Great service our waiter was excellent would definitely go again and also valet parking with car to door service especially when it rains

Saundra Baldi

Great experience. Highly recommend this restaurant. It was our first time but will not be our last. Shout out to Sherrill!! We would have never known it was her first day on the job, and we were her first table. Phenomenal customer service!

S Kurtz

The food was incredibly good, the ambiance was beautiful. But what made my special Birthday even more special and memorable were our waiters Micka and Damon they went over and above board to make the evening great. They are both an asset to this restaurant.

Reggie Smith

Great food good service

Jim Shaut

Great food drinks people and ambiance

Troy Stephens

This place was a happy accident. It was raining and where we had our original reservations was having sewage problems. We walked in without reservations on a Friday evening and in just a few minutes they seated seven of us. There was an incident with some glass breakage by a server, but we weren't upset and they were great about it. In passing conversation, we mentioned that we were from out of town attending a Master’s Degree graduation. They made sure the graduate was well taken care of with desert and brought us all a glass of champagne (kid champagne for the underaged). The food was spectacular in both flavor and presentation. The servers were amazing. We were so well taken care of all our other dining experiences for that weekend paled in comparison. I highly recommend this place!

SGD

It was small portions but the food was very flavorful

Joseph Rooney

Pass on the calamari. Lamb was awesome. Service ws top notch

Kelley Nahodil

Food was delicious... calamari so good.

Thomas Moyer

A bit pricey, but the good and service was superb.

Rick Cruz

Food was great Service was excellent

Bridget Zezenski

Very slow bar service. Food was overcooked. The atmosphere was wonderful. Overall I loved the restaurant. Just wish my lobster wasn't ruined

Shavonne Brathwaite

The food was fantastic, but the service was second to none! I ordered surf and turf and was able to cut my steak with a butter knife!

Angie Flowers

Great time , service and decor. Food was ok. Nice for Restraunt Week and date night.

ken settles

My wife and I loved it there.

C F

Came for a dinner party. The crab cake was just okay. Everyone else at the party was satisfied with their choice options. I suggest the theatre menu- more bang for you buck. Definitely save room for the butter cake- it’s delicious!

Frank Delrocco

It should have been better. That atmosphere made the food taste better than it was. The good food is around the corner at chris' jazz cafe.

Clarence Poisson

Expensive, loud attendence, food over cooked, not good experience for price.

Miriam Diamant

This place is not too bad, we visited on Monday night and were seated instantly, they gave us a table right across the kitchen & next to the restroom so there was a LOT of staff and people passing through our table constantly. The waiter was informative, the service was very quick, and besides for my Fiance's steak that was severely under-cooked everything else was really delicious. Overall we had a good experience.
