Ocean Prime

"I have been to other Ocean Prime locations and had a great meal during each of those visits, but I would say this Beverly Hills location is probably my favorite overall. The flavors were as great as I remembered and I just loved how upscale and well done the specific location is. Erik, our server, was absolutely fantastic and really made the meal a better one. Inside is especially large, open, and kept dark which is really nice because it felt like your conversation was more private. They really space out the tables so it didn’t feel like everyone was overlapping each other in terms of conversations. They don’t have a parking lot and street parking is quite hard to find in this part of town so your best option will be their valet for $15 or a nearby parking garage for $10. One of my favorite things about Ocean Prime is their large and diverse menu. There is something for everyone here. I started off with the Lobster Bisque because it’s one of my favorite bisques that I have had at any restaurant. This one was as good as all the others. Next I followed up with the Steak Tartare, and it was fantastic. The soft crostini was a great vehicle for the tartare. For my entrée, I chose the Chilean Seabass and although I wish that portion of fish was a bit larger, it still was delicious. I especially liked the truffle vinaigrette on top. I was going to do the Warm Butter Cake that I’ve had in the past, but at this point in the meal I was just too full. Overall a fantastic seafood and contemporary American restaurant in a beautiful part of town. It is a bit expensive, but it’s certainly worth it. I would recommend to anyone for any occasion."

"The atmosphere was very nice, the waiter was fantastic he was checking on us continuely, making sure we were good and the food & dessert were AMAZING."

"My first time visiting one outside of my home area. Quiet environment with beautiful setting. Enjoyed the service"

"This is our spot to go to for our anniversary. The service and food are always spectacular. There is no need to go anywhere else."

"Where to begin? From the moment we entered the restaurant to our final exchange with the valet, this was a 5+ star experience. We dined during a less busy Wednesday evening on a beautiful Beverly Hills spring night. Being our 5th night in LA, I had been sharing insights about fine dining with our 15 year old daughter during meals leading to this evening's dinner. I typically cited European service experiences when speaking about professional servers. On this evening we were fortunate to be seated with a server who was a native of Portugal. His service was exquisite and allowed me to confirm for our daughter what we had been discussing prior to the evening. Everyone who attended to our table was truly top notch. As for the bar and kitchen, from the cocktails to the appetizer, through entrees to dessert, this establishment landed in my top 5 all-time dining experiences. It's been years since I've enjoyed such a perfectly prepared and presented meal. On this occasion we all selected seafood entrees, and they were spectacular. Scallops and lobster in abundance and perfectly cooked, fresh fish delicately prepared. A shared dessert of Butter Cake topped it off wonderfully. If I were a resident of LA, this would be a regular treat for myself. Not inexpensive, but quality and service at this level rarely is. Kudos to the entire team at Ocean Prime!"
