Ocean Prime is our favorite date night restaurant. The establishment and its staff continue to provide high-quality service and food. Everything was exceptional--especially pur waiter and the staff. The wife really enjoyed her birthday and the surprise table setup. Ocean Prime continues to deliver and not disappoint. Looking for a high-quality/high-end evening dinner--try Ocean Prime.

We had a wonderful experience at Mi Vida. The waiter and chef were incredibly kind to my wife who can not have dairy She ordered red snapper which was the special. The waiter spoke to the chef to make it dairy free. The meal that came out was “ incredible “ per my wife. We can’t wait to come back and have recommended this restaurant non stop

This is the third Ted’s location I’ve been to and they’re always a solid choice. My party of 4 ended up being 5, and they went above and beyond to accommodate us. Everyone enjoyed their food, but we really loved the cocktails. They didn’t try to hurry us out, either, so we were able to enjoy a 2.5 hour dinner with drinks and time to catch up with friends.

    The food at The Warehouse is wonderful! This was my second visit, and it was just as good as the first. I highly recommend the she crab soup. The fried catfish is absolutely delicious, light, delicate, and perfectly prepared. The service is excellent, and what really stands out to me is the professionalism of the waitstaff. They clearly take pride in their appearance and the quality of service they provide. It is refreshing to see that level of professionalism and attention to detail. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and look forward to returning!
