    From the start it was very friendly. The price was reasonable for the food. I was able little nervous because I have a shellfish allergy and obviously this place is big in that. Only reason I went was my fiancé wanted to. Anyway, server was fantastic. Paid attention, good service making sure plates were cleared, cups were full and food was good. Overall it was very good.

    I don’t know why we hadn’t come sooner, but now we know better. We frequently are dining in the Sand Lake I drive area for the fine dining experience, and Ocean Prime is now our go to place … food and ambience were on point, a great menu and the service out of this world. My husband loves lobster pasta, but wasn’t feeling the menu’s lobster linguine tomato based sauce, so Sherri (amazing!!!!!! Server) ask the chef to make a cream based sauce- delicious! For the chef to make a such a concession and it was prefection, meant so much to us for making a meal an fantastic experience, and not just the ordinary steak seafood chain meal. The Ocean Roll was truly masterful blend of flavors in a sushi roll - the chili garlic sauce was nothing like we had before (wish I could put it on every roll in life now) perfect blend of spicy/salty with high grade tuna/salmon, avacodo, humachi, and we added cream cheese - so good we see ourselves coming back just for the sushi and cocktails. The grouper was perfectly balanced and prepared. We tried the crème brûlée and cake carrot cake both excellent. The service was 7 star experience. They even called to check how was our experience! Can’t say enough how grateful and perfect the front and back house made our night that we will not forget this beautiful memory.

    Rocco’s is a dependable dining experience. Consistently good. This is our go to when getting home from a long trip away before we head home to reality. Or, a nice night out when we want to go to Orlando. Good food- table side guac is my fav, pork belly tacos and carne asada , good drinks- margaritas or rum old fashioned the best, and accommodating for food allergies. It is a bit loud so choose outside seating if you want a little quieter experience. 😊
