    Modern Ocean was awesome! Everything I expected it to be. Their “date night” special was really good value, and the food and service was excellent. It’s rare to find a restaurant where the “sides” are as special as the entrees - ours were both fantastic! Highly recommend the risotto (with short rib topper) and the potato with gouda and magic bacon. We’ll be back! Too bad it’s so far from home - this would be our regular place…

    Very disappointed all the way around. Service was fair and while the food was ok the portions were small and most entrees needed add ons. To make a meal. The big surprise came with the bill where a 20 % tip was automatically added to the bill. We were only a party or 6 and I found no where that stated the tip was automatically applied. I was always under the impression a tip or gratuity was at the discretion of the customer this does not appear to be the case at Modern Seafood. The prices are already inflated at this establishment this only added insult to injury. This was the first and will be the only visit here.

    Phil, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We apologize that your visit did not meet your expectations and we appreciate your feedback. At our restaurant, we strive to provide high quality food and service at a fair price. Our prices are reflective of the quality ingredients and effort that goes into each dish. While we understand that portion sizes may vary, our goal is to offer a well-rounded dining experience for our customers. In regards to the automatic gratuity, it is standard practice in our peer group to charge this on parties of 6 or more. We do make sure to inform our customers of this policy, either through our menus or stamped bill. We value your patronage and thank you again for your review. Sincerely, Team Modern

    This place is truly amazing. I went there with my girlfriend and her daughter tonight. Very well decorated is the first thing to note, the staff ,the level of service were fantastic. To the point, we had a couple appetizers the grand seafood platter. the ladies had a couple drinks. We are excited to go back. This was not a cheap dinner, but the level of food and serve and envious were top notch.
