What a wonderful overall experience. Our waitress was top notch, and added that it was Xmas Eve right before they closed- she was awesome. I never felt rushed. The food was phenomenal. Only downer is my lamb first came out overcooked but they made me a new one and it was perfectly done. The filet was one of the best my partner ever had. Only downer is the manager didn't come to us to apologize for the overcooked lamb as most places- he did seem out of it and just not very customer friendly/chatty. Wine flights awesome. Meatballs good, truffle risotto top notch. The tiny desserts were a perfect ending to the night. Very happy with this Xmas Eve dinner experience.

Ocean Prime provided an outstanding dining experience last night. The steaks were perfectly cooked, tender, and packed with flavor, while the sides were just as impressive, showcasing thoughtful preparation and creativity. The service was impeccable—attentive and friendly without being intrusive. The ambiance was sophisticated yet comfortable, setting the tone for a wonderful evening. A top-notch choice for a special meal!

It was my first time at Luciano’s, and my friends and I had a great experience. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with the festive Christmas decorations and the fireplace created a cozy ambiance. For apps, I ordered the grilled lamp chop lollipops, which was incredibly flavorful. Then I had the scallops with butternut squash risotto which were both plentiful and delicious. Service was great overall.

Absolutely amazing! Ambiance and bar are fantastic. Drinks were out of this world! Service was fantastic and dinner was delicious. This place is like a hidden gem! Had no idea it existed. Perfect spot for a romantic date!

We live in Staten Island which has so many Italian restaurants but our favorite is Mulberry Street in Woodbridge. Chef Paul makes so many excellent dishes. Some of our favorites are Beef Bolognese, Veal Sorrrentino & Shrimp Parm (not on the menu but he will make it). Best app is the mussels in a cream wine sauce and best dessert is his pistachio cheesecake. Reasonably priced food and wines. Great vibe with suttle dinner appropriate music in the background.
