“Celebrating 3 birthdays at Roots Ocean Prime with 8 people. Everyone loved their entrees (steaks ) which were cooked perfectly. Sides were tasty and enjoyed by everyone. Great wine list. Appreciated the wine recommendation by our server. Our server, Rachel, was excellent. The birthday desserts were the hit of the dinner! Thank you Roots Ocean Prime for making the birthday celebration extra special!“

“Elite 5 delivers a dining experience defined by a rare level of intentionality and technical skill. What stands out immediately is the unique identity of every dish; the flavors are refined and balanced rather than overpowering, allowing the distinct character of each individual roll to shine through. It is clear that the focus here is on quality and craftsmanship rather than following a standard template.

​The Fire and Ice sushi is a true standout and a masterclass in culinary innovation. By removing the rice entirely, the dish highlights the pure quality of the fish, complemented perfectly by the texture of the caviar on every piece. Visually, it is stunning, but the taste is even more impressive, offering a sophisticated profile that I haven't encountered anywhere else.

​The attention to detail extends to the very end of the meal, maintaining a standard of excellence that is frankly unmatched. Even the ice cream plate arrived with perfect 90° angles, showcasing a level of geometric precision that speaks to the restaurant's discipline. I have never seen this level of artistry in a sushi restaurant before, making it a truly one-of-a-kind experience.“

“Came in primarily to try their wings - they did not disappoint! If you like crispy wings smothered in buttery buffalo sauce, this is your place. The chicken tenders and hand cut fries were also very tasty. Next time I’d pass on the hamburger and grilled chicken. Maybe the Kaiser roll is too much bread for the amount of meat but the taste just wasn’t just there.“

“Just recently visited for the first time....my daughter treated me for my birthday...great original margarita.....seared tuna steak ....perfectly prepared...Chilean sea bass over creamy rice...looking forward to next time🍹🍰“

“Ordered some paella for #mothersday2021 and there was a slight mishap.@nassaustreetseafood promptly provided an alternative that they delivered (25 mins away) with a little extra flare! Thank you for the mothers day tulips along with the correction! The halibut was amazing! Will definitely order again!“

“Great food and service. The steak, salmon, appetizers, sides and dessert were delicious. They made it extra special too, rose petals and all, for our anniversary. The server and chef obliged my request for no salt. Two, not one but two managers checked in on us. We had a really memorable dining experience. We'll be back!“

“The salads and Tuna sandwich were superb! The owner was very friendly to make sure the food and presentation were top notch. If you are in the neighborhood of the Princeton Soup and Sandwich Company I highly recommend grabbing some great food. The decorated gingerbread cookies were worth the calorie intake. You won't be disappointed choosing to eat what they have to offer!“

“You have to try the sweet potato tempura sushi. What a revelation! My omnivore friend and I had a great vegan meal here. There are several vegetarian options that won't make anyone feel deprived.“

“Great spot for Turkish food! The chicken Adana kebab was juicy and well-seasoned, and the rice and fresh salad made a perfect combo. Portions are generous, and the bread with dips was a nice touch. Friendly service and a cozy atmosphere—would definitely come back.“
