Ocean Prime has now become my new favorite restaurant in KC. From the moment I walked in the door to the when the hostess flawlessly fulfilled my request for a booth to the ambience and special touches on the menu items (shrimp cocktail presented in dry ice!) to the filets that cut like butter. The coffee was presented in a french press and tasted delicious with our peanut butter pie dessert that was so decadent. We were craving another the next day. Our waiter, Jameson took great care of us all evening. This is my 4th time dining here and my husband’s 1st but we will be coming here in the future more often! Highly recommend.

The food is always so so good! That keeps us coming back. We are always a bit disappointed in service. Just small complaints like we were sat at the bar to wait for our table and the bar was dirty and we as never wiped down. The people next to us with a different waiter were sat about 30 min before us and received their food and drinks after us. They seem short staffed and disorganized. We have noticed this on busy and slow nights. Our server last night was great and we had no complaints.
