    Had an early 5:00PM Saturday birthday dinner with another couple and loved the hip and happening vibe at Ocean 48!!! Oysters and crustaceans on ice surrounding the kitchen was a fun entrance. Music was great and the pool inside one wing of the restaurant would be fun to sit by next time but we had a great table at the far end and enjoyed people watching. We shared a salad and prime meatball appetizer, then loved the salmon as well as scallops with sides of baked potato with a ton of toppings on the side and awesome creamed corn! Outstanding. Expensive but more than enough when split. Waygu prime rib next time. Looked delicious! Nice wine and cocktail selection and they brought a beautiful chocolate layered cake with the birthday guy’s name in chocolate sauce on the plate was a classy touch. First class service!! Don’t miss the bathrooms as they have the heated seat Japanese toilets and modern sink hardware to die for 😄. We will definitely go back!
