5 star upscale surf and turf fine dining restaurant . Very pricey and everything is ala cart. Valet for everyone and there's a dress code. The food was decadent, rich and a tad on the salty side. The service was excellent. The restaurant was clean and inviting. Our server Ryan knew the menu by heart and took great care of us.
We booked this restaurant for my daughter's birthday, and they truly made the evening feel special. The customer service was 10/10 from start to finish. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and incredibly welcoming. The food was phenomenal, and we left beyond satisfied. We have dined at many upscale steakhouses, and these were some of the best steaks we've ever had. We started with the shrimp cocktail, where you order each shrimp individually. It was worth every penny. The seafood is flown in fresh daily, and the shrimp were large, tender, and incredibly fresh. The horseradish and cocktail sauce were the perfect complement and absolutely delectable. They also offer an excellent wine list with great selections to pair with your meal. The ambiance is elegant and upscale while still feeling warm and inviting. While waiting for our entrées, they brought out a pan of buttery, flaky rolls that were impossible to resist. My daughter and I both ordered the 8 ounce filet, while my husband had the Caesar salad and meatballs. Every dish was savory, flavorful, and mouthwatering. The steaks practically melted in your mouth and were perfectly tender. The buttered corn was hands down one of the best side dishes, and the Brussel sprouts did not disappoint either. We also ordered the scalloped gouda potatoes, and the portions were generous enough for the entire table to share. The three of us even had leftovers for the next day. To top off the celebration, they had my daughter choose a complimentary birthday dessert, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated touch. Overall, an exceptional dining experience that we can't wait to return to.
Celebrated a friend's birthday here. All of the staff were friendly from the hostess to our server Danny who took care of us. Our table was clean and our waters were kept full. Dimly lit restaurant with moderate noise level. We started with the crispy shrimp which was so flavorful and crispy. You can never go wrong with calamari, which was solid and delicious, love the peppers. I drank the coastal rita which was a refreshing margarita, would definitely order again. For my entree I got the 12oz filet mignon with the brussel sprouts as a side (which is served in a way meant to be shared.) The filet is served on a 500° plate so it continues cooking . I prefer medium well so it was a lil too pinkish initially but eventually got there. Tasted great though! Everyone else enjoyed their dishes as well! We ordered dessert which was complimentary for my friend's birthday. So yummy! Great service, food, and ambience.
We have dined here for date nights, as well as special occasions. It is/was one of my favorites in Phoenix. I typically can say it's a 5*. This time it was closer to 3.5*, but I'm rounding up since it is typically better than it was the night we went recently. Pros 1. Beautiful decor and luxurious vibe 2. Most of the staff is professional Cons 1. About 1/3 of the oysters were not shucked well and had shell and/or sand on them. 2. Music that didn't fit the vibe. I forget what was playing but it seemed like dentist's office music. It was bad enough to notice that it was something that seemed out of place. 3. The young guys who served the sides seemed high. They plopped the food on our plates and had it dripping and extremely messy on the sides of the serving dishes. One of the guys dropped some of the spinach/artichoke dip on the floor and didn't seem to notice or care. Someone else came by later to clean it up.
Still my fave spot for seafood in Scottsdale and probably my fave overall in the Phoenix area. Service was excellent and our food was good all the way around. I had the arctic char and scallop potatoes + mussels. Ambiance was especially good this time because we were seated in the area with the private booths and a view into the kitchen. It was an early birthday celebration and the experience was great.
An amazing night @ Ocean 44 We came to celebrate our daughter's promotion Everything was absolutely perfect ! Thank you Evonne and Kam for 12/10 service As always the fresh seafood was spot on We are always impressed by Y'All Thank you
I recently dined at Ocean 44 and had an exceptional experience. The atmosphere is the perfect balance between intimate and upscale, making it an ideal spot for either a business dinner or a date night. The service was welcoming throughout the evening. We started with the pull-apart bread, which was warm, flavorful, and a great way to kick off the meal. I ordered the ribeye, and it was cooked perfectly with incredible flavor in every bite. My friends ordered the NY strip and the pasta with mussels, and both dishes looked amazing. The quality of the food, service, and ambiance made for a memorable dining experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, meeting clients, or enjoying a night out with friends, Ocean 44 delivers on every level. I highly recommend it and look forward to returning.
Visited for my fiancé's birthday. The food?? One damn word. DELICIOSO We ordered the roasted spanish octopus, the truffle fries and the surf and turf. The highlight was definitely the octopus dish. Tender.. flavorful.. a quick of spice.. well balanced. Still day dreaming of it My wife and I did think the presentation of the surf and turf could be improved as well as the seasoning for the steak. The steak did need salt. Maybe a chimichuri sauce to dip would be good for this one just because it was a little dry (we ordered medium-rare) However!!!! The LOBSTER?? DELICIOSO again, tender, buttery and just perfect size! The ambience here was very nice for a special ocassion. They do have valet but the garage is right across so it's super easy anyway! We also wanted to applaud the service dynamic here!! They have the waiter and A LOT of sous chefs helping with delivering food, cleaning off plates and even sweeping off the table. You can tell everyone is so attentive even if it was holiday season and a SATURDAY. They were on it. Amazing job.
We've been here a few times, and our last visit were seated a smaller dining room with just a few tables it was quieter and helped us be able to hear one another better. I ordered the bone-in ribeye and it was incredible -- a huge portion, cooked absolutely perfectly. The sides were great, the crème brûlée corn stole my heart. Service is great, cute little birthday card when we arrived for us.
This was my first time at Ocean 44, a 16-year wedding anniversary dinner courtesy of Mr P. We made reservations ahead of time, and did not have any wait for our table. There was a very nice ambiance throughout the restaurant, and I appreciated that the music was a mixture that seemed to be a Gen X construct. We were jamming. Or in the vein of Bob Marley or Club Nouveau, "We be jammin'". The staff who served us throughout the night was top notch. Every fork was replaced on queue with empty plates whisked away and empty cups promptly filled. Our main server was a delightful ginger named Joe. (I'm allowed to say that because I too am a ginger). He was more than knowledgeable regarding the menu and beverages and accoutrement to best accompany entrees. We were checked on the perfect amount of times, and courses we're impeccably paced. When our beverages arrived, so did warm, buttery croissant style bread, and both an anniversary card and birthday card for Mr P, proving the incredible hospitality of the restaurant, as well as a truly individualized experience. This rang true at the end as well, when a surprise cake was packaged for us at the conclusion of our dinner, compliments of the restaurant. I will also jump ahead and add that we received a phone call the very next afternoon, making sure that we had a wonderful experience and welcoming any feedback that we may have. We began with the 2 piece caviar cones. I had never had caviar before, so I wasn't sure what it tasted like. It was pleasant, though I didn't taste the expected fishiness of a caviar at all. In fact, I thought it slightly overpowered by the petite green onion on top. But overall pleasant. We also added the Wood-Fired Spanish octopus. This was absolutely delightful! The octopus was cooked perfectly, with a great woody flavor. The fingerling potatoes and roasted cherry tomatoes were a perfect complement. For my main entree, I chose the New Bedford scallops, with a special of the day, the chicken fried lobster tail as an accompaniment. Both were absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly as well. There was a green chili aioli to compliment the lobster that was to die for. Mr. P got the pepper-crusted tuna, which he absolutely loved. He added to this an 8 oz, petite wagyu filet. I am not a red meat eater, but this was seasoned and cooked perfectly rare, with a crust on top that was magnificent. For the table, we ordered two sides: a wild mushroom arrangement, and a sweet corn brulee. Both were absolutely worth writing home about. The sweet corn was exactly what it sounds like - a creme brulee that just happened to be like a creamed corn. It was so very good. Needless to say, we needed a box to take home a good amount of this meal. We did opt for dessert, from which we chose a simple berry mixture with cream. All of the berries were sweet and ripe, and the cream was delicate yet hearty and not at all oily. I happen to wash this down with a delightful cappuccino. This was a pricy meal, but it was one that was planned for for not one, but two special occasions, making for a great date night. I can't gush enough about our server Joe and his assistants. They really made our experience phenomenal, and we would willfully return over and over again.
Beautiful restaurant inside and out. Delicious food and swanky atmosphere. We were seated next to a service table and there were a few guys (employees) chatting away with f-bombs thrown in, which was extremely surprising, but other than that we really enjoyed our experience. The complimentary rolls were amazing; so tasty that I couldn't stop at one. The crispy shrimp deviled eggs were SO delicious; I've had cravings ever since. The menu offers lots of appetizer, potato and vegetable side options. (The only thing I would mention is that the Torched Scallop appetizer is just that - torched only so they are raw scallops.) The drinks were interesting and tasted great too. Overall a great meal in a relaxing atmosphere with beautiful decor.
I decided to come here and enjoy a couple of appetizers and a glass of wine after my hair appointment at Sachi. I did not have a reservation, but they were able to seat anyway. However, I was told that I needed to be done by 6:45. That was fine because I arrived at about 415 so they gave me plenty of time to eat. One of my girlfriends also joined me as well and as usual, we sat at the bar. The bartenders were fantastic....very personable with great customer service. I can't remember the female's name, but she made a wonderful spicy margarita for me. Now let's talk about the food. I ordered the lobster escargot, and I wasn't a fan of it. It had a mornay sauce that was more like a soufflé, and I just felt that that over-powered the lobster. Also, it was way more mornay sauce than lobster. It did have a little bit of caviar on the top but again that was lost because of all of the Mornay sauce. I ordered the oysters Rockefeller with a side of a couple of scallops. Both the scallops and the oysters Rockefeller were fantastic! In fact, the next time I go, I will definitely order that for an entree. Overall, if you want good seafood and get service, this is definitely a place to come to.
My husband and I won "Date Night for a Year" at Ocean 44 during the auction portion of the Fresh Start Gala at the Phoenician Resort. We had the privilege of dining at Ocean 44 every month for a year, such an awesome experience. We pretty much know the menu inside and out. The service at Ocean 44 is excellent and the food is fantastic. They give you cards on special occasions, call the next day to see how the meal was. They bring warm damp scented towels between courses to clean your hands. Since we dined every month they knew our cocktail order before we sat down. Everything about Ocean 44 is five star! We usually requested a table with a view of the kitchen because it was more private, quieter, and fun to watch the back of the house do their thing. A few times we requested the room with the "trees." We liked the ambiance in that space as well. We liked to start with their Oysters. Always a great selection. Fresh, clean, and we love the accompaniments they serve with them, perfection! The Heirloom Tomato and King Crab is a stand out appetizer for me. The chilled lump crab and fresh avocado on top of slices of heirloom tomatoes with a drizzle of basil puree is beyond refreshing! Love the chilled knife it's served with. The Maine Lobster Escargot topped with caviar is an interesting appetizer. It's their twist on traditional escargot. It's very rich but worth trying at least once as it's very unique. You also can't go wrong with the Chicken Fried Lobster Tails. They taste exactly how they sound and come with a green chili aioli. They have a Wood Roasted Shellfish section on the menu. We liked their mussels. The sauce is so flavorful...caramelized onions and white wine. It's a large portion that could easily be an entree. My favorite is the Chilean Seabass or sometimes they have a Striped Bass on special. Both are prepared perfectly. The Seabass cuts like butter. The Stripped Bass is flaky and comes topped with Lump Crab, it's delicious. I also love their Scallops, they melt in your mouth. My husband loves their steaks. He likes the NY Strip and Filet Mignon, but the Wagyu was his favorite because it's so rich and savory. What's awesome is you can add anything to any dish, a few scallops or a crab cake to make it surf and turf. Siegfried's Au Gratin Potatoes as a side are a must! The caramelized onions and gouda cheese is next level! The Corn Crème Brûlée is outstanding. It's sweet and has a golden brown caramelized sugar crust topping. The Wild Mushrooms are another favorite and so is the fire roasted cauliflower. Our top three desserts are the Warm Vanilla Carmel Cake, Key lime Pie, and the Coconut Cream Pie. They also have a Benign Tree that comes with dipping sauces. It's a fun way to present dessert if you're dinning with multiple people. Ocean 44 is impressive, serves high quality food, and is the perfect spot to celebrate a special occasion. We no longer go every month as our "Date Night for a Year" ended, but we still go on special occasions.

Food 4/5 Service 100/5 Ambiance 5/5 Cost 2/5 The food and ambiance were outstanding, the service EXCEPTIONAL, however the cost was on the higher side however the quality of the food justifies the cost. read more
I wish I could give Ocean 44 a 4.5-star rating because the food was fantastic, but a few service bumps kept it from being a flawless 5-star experience. We are big fans of their sister restaurants, so we were really excited to try this location! To start, my husband was thrilled with the bread service. It is very unique and reminded us of a fancy Pillsbury croissant. We skipped taking pictures of the appetizers because we dove right in, but the meatballs were delicious and the colossal shrimp cocktail was great. The shrimp are ordered à la carte, so I chose to get three of them. For drinks, my husband loved his spicy mezcal margarita. I had the pineapple mezcal margarita, which was good, but it wasn't very pineapple-like despite me asking for it to be. For the mains, my husband had an off-menu Wagyu strip with sides of broccoli and fries, which he really enjoyed. I had the linguini and clams, which I was super excited about. The clams were very good, though unfortunately not the best I've ever had. I actually found myself wishing I had ordered a steak with a seafood topper for a surf-and-turf situation instead, but overall it was still really great. The only reason I wouldn't give this a full 5 stars is because the service was a little shaky at first. There were several times right at the beginning where we needed our server and she was nowhere to be found. Interestingly, the restaurant got much busier later into our dinner, but the service gaps happened at the start when it was still slow. Overall, it was a really great dinner and we will definitely be back! read more

Came for my birthday 05-01-26 excited to celebrate and enjoy the rest of my day but unfortunately an accident occurred while dining in where my white wine spilled all over on me by an employee when removing utensils we didn't use I believe (happened so fast) i was upset because I thought my day was ruined but I didn't really let it get to me as I get it wasn't intentional , apologies from the manager soon after. We finished eating our delicious meal & the manager once again came over apologizing wishing me a happy birthday and the meal was on them ! I really appreciated that they went above and beyond for my satisfaction showing amazing customer service towards us (but as always as I done often) just wanted to leave my review to show how much they care for their guests ! read more
I love Ocean 44! I've dined here many times, most recently for my best friend's birthday. The restaurant was super accommodating to our large party of 10 and we had dedicated staff who made sure we had an amazing time and that drinks kept flowing! Rojo was our main waiter and he was wonderful. The food was impeccable I highly reccomend the Lobster Rolls, Escargot, Seared Scallops, Linguini with Clams and andy of their delectable steaks! They provided us with a delicious desert on the house which was a sharable beingnet tree! Is it pricey? Yes absolutely! But if you're celebrating or want a super luxe or romantic night out they can't be beat! read more
We love this place! What can possibly go wrong with, a tasty dirty martini w/blue cheese stuffed olives, a Paloma,, a 12 ounce fillet mignon, au gratin potatoes, crunchy shrimp and their famous lobster roll??? NOTHING! It was all soooooooo yummy! Service is always amazing! Super friendly staff & mgmt. Love the open ice bed seafood concept. Our tab was around $300 for two people with drinks. read more
Made a reservation for dinner to celebrate our anniversary and we were well taken cared of. I can see why so many people choose Ocean 44 for special occasions. I appreciate that they were able to accommodate our request for a quiet table/area. We felt like we had our own dining room and we had an awesome side view of the kitchen. Michael and his team were so friendly and hospitable. It makes us uncomfortable to be given so much attention but it was definitely appreciated. You can tell that there is an emphasis on fine dining and elevating the guest experience. The complimentary bread was delicious. I could have easily ate it all but was really refraining myself from filling up on it. We tried a variety of items from the menu. The stand outs were the Colossal Shrimp cocktail, Woodfired Mussels, and Chilean Seabass, all perfectly cooked. Micheal treated us to our choice of dessert and their Triple Layer Key Lime Pie didn't disappoint. Definitely worth every bite and calorie. We were so stuffed that we had to take the rest to-go so we can enjoy it tomorrow. Thank you for making our anniversary dinner so memorable! read more

The loveliest anniversary dinner experience! It's a beautiful, elevated, and elegant space inside with a solid menu of seafood options. We were seated in the booth area that had skylights which made the ambiance extra nice. Servers were attentive and always on top of asking if we wanted items boxed to-go before the next round of food came out. What we ate: *Bread rolls - buttery, delicious, and I wanted to eat two but one was already so filling! *New England lobster rolls - one of the tastiest lobster rolls I've ever had. Lobster was fresh, meaty, and paired well with the microgreens. *Rhode Island calamari & shrimp - my boyfriend's least favorite out of everything because there were no tentacle pieces, but we still liked it (especially the marinara sauce). *Chilean Sea Bass - generous portion of the most light but buttery sea bass (we shared this). The crust was incredible. *Corn Creme Brulee - almost like a dessert or sweet version of korean corn cheese but with the tastiest layer of crispy brown sugar on top! *Ultimate Warm Vanilla Caramel Cake - we were so full and couldn't finish it. A bit on the sweeter side, and the caramelized pecans on top were delicious. Overall very happy with our meal and we appreciated the handwritten card (although it mistakenly said happy 35th anniversary and we were confused haha). Complementary valet parking or plenty of garage parking a few minutes walk away. read more

Coming from the PNW, I don't know why but seafood in Arizona has always made me question how fresh they are. I'm so happy to say I found a place that knows their seafood well. Ocean 44 is one of my favorite places to go for a date night, family dinner or simply to eat good. Their service is attentive and everything is delicious! We ordered some cocktail shrimp and oysters as appetizers. The oysters are probably the best I've had. Ofc their bread service is divine. We took some home bc we couldn't finish it and they hold up well after the microwave! For entree we chose the sea bass and filet with sides of cream brulee corn (that's one my favorite side here) and bacon chunks between brussels sprouts. Ended the night with their warm caramel butter cake with a dollop of whipped cream and icecream on top Come and try!! read more
We came in from out of town to visit family and they took us here. I know this is a place where you should probably order seafood but steak is too good to pass up for me. I ordered the NY strip and I'll say it was one of the better steaks I've had in a long time! Our service was great too, the servers were very attentive to us and always made sure we had what we needed. The restaurant also has a great atmosphere. I recommend it! read more

Was a great, filling meal. Would return. Steak was cooked perfectly and their au poivre sauce is to die for- the best i've had yet. I had the filet mignon and a side of creamed spinach. I also started with the french onion soup, which was good. Vibe was chill, sat in the bar area. Service was excellent, they were very attentive. Nothing really stood out, but everything was good. Keep it up guys! read more

Food, service and ambience was phenomenal . It is upscale and their service reflects it. The food was great, especially for seafood in the desert. It is hard to get fresh and well cooked. It is great for a romantic dinner read more
Had dinner here yesterday around 6:30. Very nice place with friendly staff. Love the ambiance. Dark and gives off romantic vibes. I've been in once before but only had a cocktail and one appetizer that time since I didn't want to eat too much before going out with the girls. Our order: Sparkling water $10 Cucumber Guava cocktail $17 Extra Dirty Martini w/ blue cheese olives x2 (comped) Blue Point Oysters 1/2 dozen $30 Hawaiian Yellowtail Crudo $38 Little Neck Clams $32 My drink was good. I subbed it with rum instead of vodka. Oysters weren't bad. It came with 5 different sauces plus a mini green and red Tobasco. I mainly used the horseradish, vinaigrette, and whatever the green one is! Little Neck Clams were a bit gritty so we didn't finish that and they comped his 2 drinks for it. The Hawaiian Yellowtail Crudo was amazing!! I could eat like 5 orders of those. He got sick of seafood and started craving a burger so we ended up not ordering entrees here. I felt bad for our waitress because we were unsure on entrees but she was patient and checked back on us often. Excellent service! I also had the pleasure of meeting the manager (GM?), Stephen, this time because they knew each other. Real nice guy! I would try the Sea Bass next time! read more

Totally amazing experience! The ambiance was beautiful! Our server was extremely informative and knowledgeable about the menu and any questions we had. The food was beyond fresh and delicious. Highly would recommend for anyone visiting! read more
I was so happy with our experience here! The atmosphere was great and welcoming, our waiter was fantastic and super knowledgeable of everything on the menu which helped with our decisions! Between the table we ordered a filet mignon, highly recommended. The fresh basil and herb rubbed arctic char, Australian tajima wagyu, chive and cream cheese stuffed hashbrown which was huge! And for the last side we ordered the corn crème brûlée. Everything was fantastic and we ended the night off with the triple chocolate bombe which is very rich so definitely share with a chocolate loving 4 top! read more
Service was amazing 10/10. Our server and his helpers did an excellent job of making our night special. The restaurant ambiance is truly beautiful! Highly recommend the steak and key lime pie. The dirty martini was fantastic and I love that they let you keep the shaker on the table. We will be back! read more
Ocean 44 is a beautiful fine dining option for seafood right in Fashion Square. There is plenty of parking and optional valet. When you walk in there is a full view of the raw bar & fresh seafood options. The staff is great and provided us some great recommendations on sauces and toppings. My favorite was the Chilean Sea Bass and had a soft tender texture with an amazing seasoning charred into the fish. The Mac and cheese side was delicious, I would eat this side everyday if I could. The other side I hadn't had before was the Corn Crème Brûlée. Very interesting mix of sweet corn and the sugar topping. We also had a filet mignon that was cooked perfect to our liking and went well with the black truffle green peppercorn sauce. read more

Unfortunately we don’t have a kids menu. We do have a buttered noodles available upon request
Do they allow kids or just adults?
I dont see why they wouldnt allow kids. I have seen other kids in the restaurant, its just a nice place so if your kid wants to run around and scream maybe not the place

Hi Yvonne, Yes there is some sugar in the seasoning.
Do they offer outdoor seating? And, if so, can you reserve an outdoor table?
