First time at Ocean Prime to try the DineLA menu. Everything was so good, the service was above and beyond. I highly recommend Ocean Prime and would come back. Thanks Chad and Ocean Prime Team for taking care of us.

French onion soup & house salad were both flavorful but rather small in portion. Sea bass is a delicate fish, it was cooked nicely, and thankfully paired with a delicious mashed potato and veggies mixture that would otherwise have made the blandly spiced fish dish fall flat. Warm butter cake was decent, similar to a warm butter cake anywhere else. Five layer carrot cake has been consistently delectable. Staff were all attentive and gracious, we might've enjoyed them more than we did the food.

This is one of our favorites restaurants. We've been to many of their locations. It's always a treat.

The best dining experience I've ever had. Server was attentive and answered any questions we had without making us feel “out of place”. Prices are what they are, but it is extremely worth it. Food was insanely good. I couldn't recommend this place more. The only thing we would pass on next time would be the tater tots.

Was there on January 18, 2026 Sunday for dinner, celebrating two of my adult children. I believe our waitress server was named Christina, (she wears glasses. Her hair was up in a bun.).... Exceptional professional staff member you have there..

Our favorite restaurant in Beverly Hills . It is pricey , but well worth it for a special occasion. It was our son;s birthday and his choice. We had been here previous with him and he loves this restaurant. Food was amazing for all six of us . Besides the excellent steak, the jalapeno au gratin is so delicious . Updated decor is classy and beautiful . Service , excellent , as usual . Cocktails in the bar area before dinner was very nice with great service. We first went to Ocean Prime in Las Vegas and were very impressed. Wil return as often as possible .

We had an exceptional dinner at Ocean Prime last night. The star of the evening was the food. It was delicious. 4 of the 5 of us had steaks and all thought they are perfectly cooked, tender, tasty and perfect. The Parmesan fries were the absolute best I've ever had. Would go back just for them. The Sea Bass special, the lobster special and the sauted shrimp with the Filet were all delicious. Everything was perfect. The service was excellent. The room is very beautiful and the noise level was low enought that we could comfortably talk and hear each other. It was a tremendous dining experience and I would highly recommend it to friends and colleagues.

We are regular customers at this restaurant, and once again it exceeded our expectations. This time, my husband and I were celebrating our anniversary, and we were so touched by the thoughtful surprise of a complimentary glass of champagne. The food was absolutely amazing, as always, but what truly made the evening special was our server, Isabel. She was terrific—going above and beyond to make our celebration feel truly special and memorable, not just like one of our usual dinners here. Thank you very much to all the staff, the chef, and especially to Isabel for making our anniversary such a wonderful experience. We look forward to many more visits!

My birthday dinner at Ocean Prime was just okay, which is disappointing considering how beautiful the restaurant is and how much potential the evening had. What really upset me was finding out they accept 9 p.m. reservations even though they close at 9. I assumed, like most fine dining places, that the kitchen would stay open for guests seated at that time so we could actually enjoy the meal. Instead, we arrived to find the restaurant nearly empty, with staff already cleaning. From the start, it felt rushed.
The best part was our waitress, who was incredibly sweet, friendly, and thoughtful. She even gave me a hug when we were leaving, which meant a lot. Her service alone deserves five stars. The restaurant itself is stunning with a great atmosphere, but the food didn’t live up to the setting.
We ordered the steak and lobster prix fixe meal. The lobster was served plain with no garlic butter, lemon, or seasoning, which made it underwhelming. The steak was the biggest disappointment. It came pre-cut, which left it dry and lukewarm by the time it reached us. There was a dark glaze served as a dipping sauce, but it didn’t pair well with either dish. A simple garlic butter would have complemented both much better.
What shocked me most was being charged for my own birthday dessert. I’ve celebrated birthdays at restaurants every year for 33 years and have never once had to pay for a dessert, not even at casual places. To experience that at one of the most expensive restaurants I’ve ever been to felt especially off. The dessert was well over twenty dollars, which felt unnecessary after spending more than two hundred on dinner.
We were the last table left, but we weren’t dawdling. I even asked for my dessert to be packed to go so we could leave quickly. Our waitress kindly insisted on bringing it with a candle so I could at least have that moment, and I appreciated her effort. Still, with staff cleaning all around us and a manager standing nearby, it was hard to feel comfortable. Even though we finished within an hour, it felt like we were keeping everyone from closing up.
The space is undeniably beautiful, and the service from our waitress was exceptional, but everything else felt rushed, overly corporate, and surprisingly unwelcoming for such a high end restaurant. It didn’t feel like a birthday celebration, just a dinner that ended too quickly. I left feeling deflated and decided to plan another dinner later in the week to try to salvage the feeling of a birthday that never really happened
