    What a wonderful place. We had a great meal. The short rib tacos are the bomb. Corn is a little pricy but very good. Overall a great dining experience.

    The food was wonderful. Started with the shishito peppers and mushrooms. Both were recos and they were great. Did like the poblano pepper stuffed for dinner. We were three people. One hadhad a fish to be made with halibut. They ran out of halibut so they substituted it with chilian sea bass. Unfortunately, it had to be made twice. The first time the fish was not cooked completely through. Someone else had a casserole dish with seafood and peppers. I think that was the winner for all the dishes. There was more than enough to share. The food was extremely filling in fresh, so there was no room for dessert. I will say the ambience is quite beautiful. We had a reservation, but they set us upstairs, which is a little disappointing since that’s more for people who don’t have reservations. But it was quiet and the wait staff was fabulous. We would definitely try it again.

    This was our second time having a meal here because we enjoyed our lunch so much and saw many other intriguing items on the menu we wanted to try. Four of us had dinner last evening and again were delighted! We all enjoyed our starters, drinks & entrees! The portions are generous and well-presented. And to top it off, we had excellent service from Bailey! She is professional, attentive and very friendly! We enjoyed the recommendations she gave us for the starters for happy hour too. I’m still thinking about those dumplings and roasted brussel sprouts!

    Michelin star restaurant. Our Servers. Outstanding. No hovering. Attentive. We had at least three and the lead gentleman provided the best guidance we’ve experienced for years. The chef deserves kudos for excellent food prep and quality, and unique ingredients (choice of fresh greens on risotto). We had the early menu of warm breads, scallops and risotto, sides of bacon creamed spinach and jalapeño au gratin. We finished with the warm butter cake. If you enjoy martini’s try the signature. Most delicious and beautiful I’ve ever encountered. Ocean Prime is a 10 star restaurant.

    Great food always. Service was good. We sat inside but all the “walls” were open to the patio which we preferred. Vibe was great. One of my all time favorite restaurants in Desert Ridge. Worth a visit for sure when you are in the area! Patio has very cool fire pits for 8+ people. TVs all around also.
