    Cute brunch spot at Beverly Hills ! Higher price point due to location but we were about to get the DinaLa lunch special for $45 each person ( 3 courses ). It's a nice meet up for the girls and then you can go shop around after ! Oh and free desert for birthday :)

    Chilean Sea Bass over mashed potatoes and broccoli

    Last night we had the pleasure of celebrating our Anniversary at Ocean Prime. Like always the service is amazing. Our waitress Diane was very tentative and made sure we didn't want for anything. We sat at a cute booth in a corner and the lights were low and music playing...very nice romantic atmosphere! The scallops were delicious and the Chilean Seabass melted like butter in my mouth...yummy! The Ten Layer Carrot Cake is a must try. I ordered a Ten layer carrot cake and a slice of chocolate cake and Diane gave us two carrots cakes needless to say I was disappointed when I got home. I had my heart set on enjoying some of each. Next time...

    COVID-19: Social distancing is not enforced at this establishment. Some of the staff wears a mask. All customers are not expected to wear a mask. It's optional now. The staff also wears gloves when handling food. There are no hand sanitizers available for customers to use. This place is available for take outs and has some indoor & outdoor seating available with limited capacity. They are not sanitizing in between customers. I mention these things in my reviews for the sake of protecting immunocompromised people like the elderly and people sick with cancer and other illnesses. COVID-19 Vaccination Proof: This establishment currently does not require proof of vaccination. While I was eating my food in this establishment, I asked if they had any special offers and they weren't offering any at the moment. They currently do have happy hour. They also do not allow pets in their establishment UNLESS it's a service animal. Parking: They only have valet parking here. Valet parking is $15 not including tip. Apparently during peak business hours or during the holidays, they will jack up the prices for valet parking. You have been warned! The best part about solo dining is eating whatever the hell I want without any judgement or pushbacks from other people. And I could eat at my own pace and people watch. Food and Drinks: At the bar, I ordered their famous berries and bubbles cocktail. It is famously crafted with a mix of citrus-infused vodka, fresh lemon juice, marinated blackberries, and a splash of brut, topped with dry ice to create a billowing, theatrical smoke effect. This drink was incredibly fruity and refreshing. The perfect alcoholic beverage for the summer. When I finally got my own table, I ordered their famous jumbo lump crab cake, lobster bisque, and caviar as my three appetizers. The jumbo lump crab cake is a signature appetizer here at Ocean Prime. I like their generous portion of premium crab meat and its elegant presentation. It is served alongside a sweet and sour slaw and a zesty horseradish mustard aioli. The crab cake was very tender and sweet. It balances the richness of the crab with the bright, slightly spicy kick of the aioli. It was baked to perfection. The lobster bisque was so yummy and creamy. It is a rich, velvety soup made with tender lobster meat and a flavorful broth. I like that they have generous, tender pieces of butter-poached Maine lobster in the soup. Ah yes. The Sturgeon caviar. Yes, I am a fancy and extra woman, and I have extremely expensive taste in food. I love me some artisanal caviar. Yum! Anyways, this wasn't on their menu, and I had to special request this. Caviar served on mini pancakes?!?! Say less! I loved how fluffy and soft the mini pancakes were. The caviar had a luxurious, buttery texture. It also had a subtle briny flavor. I found that the caviar bursts on the palate rather than tasting overly fishy. Honestly, putting the caviar on top of the sweet mini pancakes was brilliant because the mini pancakes acted as a neutral canvas so the distinct briny taste of the caviar could shine through. Moreover, I ordered the lobster linguine and sea scallops. The lobster linguine is a popular seafood entrée featuring fresh al dente cooked linguine tossed with succulent lobster meat, roasted tomato butter, arugula, chili flakes, and freshly grated parmesan. Btw, I hate arugula, so I asked the staff to remove it from this dish. Flavor wise, this dish had a delicate balance of rich roasted tomato butter and a kick of spice from chili flakes. I'm a sucker for all things pasta, so this dish hit the spot and satisfied my pasta craving. The sea scallops were fire!!! The jumbo sea scallops were perfectly seared to a golden brown, moist, and tender. The sea scallops were severed on a bed of lobster risotto. The lobster risotto was very rich and creamy. They used a rich Arborio rice cooked with chunks of melt in your mouth lobster, roasted tomatoes, and a savory shellfish. This dish won my heart. And finally, for desserts, I ordered their famous 10 layer carrot cake and creme brûlée. Now, normally, I hate carrot cakes, but since this was highly recommended, I decided to give this a shot. Needless to say, I still hate carrot cake, but I could appreciate this restaurant's take on this dessert. The cake itself was very moist and tasted spicy due to the cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. This dessert is layered with lots of cheese icing and pineapple syrup. I found the cream cheese icing and whipped cream to be extremely delectable, but that's about it. The creme brûlée is a classic and indulgent dessert featuring a rich, velvety vanilla custard, a perfectly crisp caramelized sugar crust, and fresh seasonal berries. I loved the warm and crunchy top, and I truly enjoyed the rich, vanilla-scented custard. Staff: The staff here are very welcoming, attentive, and chill. They accept both cash and credit cards. There is no credit card minimum.

    Chilean Sea Bass
    Sam B.

    Came here on a holiday and the place was packed which says a lot since this is a very big space. There's a lovely outdoor terrace, two bar areas, and a more formal dining room. We got the blackberry club cocktail. It has zero proof gin, muddle blackberries, lime, and simple syrup. It is alcohol free, delicious, and absolutely gorgeous. All their cocktails look impressive actually. For our meal we got the Teriyaki salmon which is our go-to. It has shiitake sticky rice and a soy butter sauce. It's always delicious! We also got the chilean sea bass which comes on a potato puree with a truffle vinaigrette, pearl onions and broccolini. It was good. Of the two, the salmon is still my favorite. For dessert we got the warm butter cake. It comes with ice cream. It's definitely big enough to share. It melts in your mouth. Highly suggest. Valet parking or parking on the street. Also of note: private party rooms available and prix fix lunch menu

    Went here on a Friday night as a party of 5 to celebrate a birthday. We had reservations at 6:30pm that made it easy to dine but there were a couple open tables outdoors. Staff was friendly and made sure our questions were always answered and our waters were always filled. We ordered the tune tartare and calamari as appetizers then continued it with the steak and nigiri plate. Everything was great with my favorite bite of the night being the calamari! At the end, they gave us a cake with a candle to celebrate the birthday of our group member. Overall, really great experience and I'd love to come back and try more items from the menu.

    Had an intimate birthday dinner here with a friend for myself.. The ambiance is very business casual, not to be confused with trendy. Our steak was sub par, our sushi roll was falling apart, our coffee was served cold. It took 45 minutes to get our drinks. I asked to have my coffee remade and after a nearly $400+ bill the server disappeared. Truly unfortunate! I love Ocean Prime and their other locations are amazing! However, this particular location was horrible. I was pretty embarrassed for suggesting Ocean Prime when I've had such a great experience at other locations. It's a hard pass! There are MUCH better high end steakhouses and eateries in the area to give your money to. Cheers to consistency and quality Yelpers! xx

    We came for a birthday dinner not knowing they had some Dine LA specials for $65 (the only steak option was a filet for $80). The ribeye steak was pretty decent - a little bit undercooked for a medium rare, but still overall pretty decent. The jalapeño gratin was good. The deviled eggs were delicious, although there isn't enough caviar to taste it (expected given the price). The calamari was very sweet. The house salad was plain. The Gouda tots were undercooked. The truffle Mac and cheese had an excellent flavor but the sauce was a bit gritty, not smooth. The warm butter cake was insanely dry and flavorless. Definitely pass on that. The carrot cake was better, but still dense and dry. I'll preface the rest of this review by saying I'm not really one to send food back or really even say anything about the food if it's palatable. I'll typically just eat the food and not come back. The sea bass on the Dine LA menu was absolutely horrendous and underseasoned. It genuinely didn't even taste like it was salted. I ended up asking for a bearnaise sauce to make it edible. It still wasn't great. We felt our server give us some attitude at the beginning of the meal, but it did get better later on. She gave us a daily special, which included wagyu, and I asked her if it was American wagyu, Australian wagyu, or Japanese wagyu, and she didn't know... strange to not tell your servers at a steakhouse which one it is. Overall, it wasn't all bad, but we spent $620 at the restaurant. It isn't worth coming back.

    Ocean Prime is one of those places that never misses. I've been coming here for years and it's still one of my go-to's for a special night out. They also recently opened a Las Vegas location on the Strip..I've been to both, and honestly... fantastic every single time. Vibe/Service: Always on point. The service is consistently great, the location is perfect, and the whole place has a polished but fun energy. There's indoor + outdoor seating, and it's a great spot whether you're celebrating, on a date, or bringing friends from out of town. Parking: You can do street parking if you get lucky, but valet is the easiest. Private Dining: We've used their private dining before too and it was an amazing experience..super smooth and elevated, perfect for a group. Drinks: Full bar and their cocktails are incredible. Also..their espresso martini is one of the best I've had. Perfectly balanced and not too sweet. As you can probably tell from my photos... I've tried a LOT of the menu Here are some favorites: Sushi / Raw Bar: Ocean Roll + Spicy Tuna Roll Nigiri (honestly all of it) Hamachi crudo..melt-in-your-mouth good Mains / Sides: Goat cheese ravioli (so flavorful and creamy) Surf & turf Au gratin potatoes And truly... all their steak options are amazing Dessert (do not skip): Butter cake..a MUST. Soooo good. Both chocolate cakes are delicious (the flourless one is richer/denser) Carrot cake and crème brûlée are also fantastic Overall: if you're looking for a place with top-tier service, unreal food, great drinks, and a classy vibe, Ocean Prime is it. Worth it every time.

    I had a small post wedding dinner here and the room they put us all in was lovely. The ambiance was nice. Our server was super attentive and helped us in every which way we needed. The food was not as memorable as the service, but I still had a nice time here. Thank you :)

    Celebrated our anniversary at Ocean Prime & it was definitely one for the books! The service is so attentive, and I really liked how lively it can get inside the dining area. It provides both an elevated fine dining experience & relaxing vibe. We started with drinks - espresso martini (black) and pineapple picante. Never knew that you could order a black espresso martini lol! I'm a changed woman for life now. It was sweet, and not bitter for me at all. The pineapple picante definitely packed a bit of spice, was also very yummy. For food, we had the parmesan truffle fries, bread basket, dynamite roll, sea scallops and NY strip. The dynamite roll was a nice contrast from the rest of the meal, really great quality shrimp. The fries were stupidly good, could not stop munching on them. We ordered the bread a little later into the service, which I wish we would have done sooner so that it could accompany most of the meal. It did take a while for it to come out. The entrees were my favorite. I always try to order a plate that I cannot cook myself, and this one knocked it out of the park. The scallops were all perfectly seared, and the little salad on top made each bite so well balanced. The steak is crusted I believe in a sort of peppercorn rub, and the inside was cooked to a perfect medium rare. I'd love to return someday soon, its hard to find a restaurant where absolutely everything ordered is tasty - and this one delivered exactly that. Thank you to the staff for making our anniversary dinner special. It was truly an amazing experience.

    Ambience is absolutely gorgeous, the outdoor patio area is open and luxurious and a great mix of sunshine and lounging. Went today to check out the bar/patio area, and I love the vibes. Same upscale experience with staff left and right taking plates, giving new utensils, refilling water, checking on you, etc, but with the rejuvenating sun. As usual, the NY strip and house salad and bread is to die for. Tried the chocolate peanut butter pie and it is incredible. I wouldn't really describe it as a pie, more of a soft peanut butter filling with a dark chocolate soft ganache on outside. Filling is not a cream, but not cake-y, sort of in between. With an oreo-like crust. Not too sweet and balanced.

    The restaurant has an elegant and relaxing atmosphere, and the location in Beverly Hills makes the whole experience feel special. I especially liked that the Dine LA lunch menu was only $35, which made it easy to enjoy a fine-dining experience without spending too much.

    Anthony K.

    The restaurant delivers an experience that builds from the moment you walk in. The hostess at the entrance sets the tone, and the staff immediately makes you feel welcome, genuinely attentive. The seafood selection is outstanding. The Chilean sea bass is exceptional, perfectly prepared. Every dish we tried was thoughtfully executed, and the butter cake, well it was outstanding, the perfect finish to the meal. From start to finish, the service is top tier, and the energy of the room feels celebratory, elevated by a DJ spinning great jams that added to the vibe without overpowering the experience. A great night that continues to build throughout the evening and a perfect way to ring in the New Year.

    Ask the Community - Ocean Prime

    What is the attire?

    I would describe Ocean Prime's attire as Business Casual. Just dress nicely.

    Are any of the steaks halal or from creekstone farms?

    Is there a kids menu?

    They do. I just posted a photo of the kids menu. Very reasonably priced & a good option.

    Is there convenient and ample parking?

    Valet is available at the restaurant but other options include public parking lots about 1 block away (several in the area).

    Is there a cake cutting fee?

    No fee

    Lunch begins at 11:30am but I don't know what time it ends.

    Do you have any Florida stone crab?

    Not at the Beverly Hills location

    They take cash right ? Cause I know they ask to have a card on hold

    Yes the restaurant does take cash. Depending on the size of the party, they may ask for a credit card on hold and at the end of the meal you can decide to keep on card or pay cash. Like most restaurants in the area they have had high number of… 

    What's a good item to order?

    Their Filet mignon, Pork and lamb chops are all Outstanding and cooked to perfection. They also make a very tasty crispy brussels sprouts.

    Do they have live music?

    At ocean prime there is a bar with a connecting patio on the right and the main dining is on the left. The bar is lively with the patio having live music in the evening. While the main dining area is dark, sleek and sophisticated.

    I'm planning to go there on my first anniversary. Can I bring a cake?

    Yes you can. I had my birthday dinner there and we had a cake. They will refrigerate it for you as well.

    Are dogs allowed on patio?

    It's not really that type of restaurant. Plus you have to walk through the restaurant to get to the patio. I doubt it.

The presentation alone was impressive when it came to the table, but more importantly, it was cooked beautifully juicy, tender, perfectly charred on the outside, and packed with flavor. Definitely made for sharing. We paired it with the street corn, which was loaded with seasoning, cheese, and just the right amount of spice. It was the perfect side to balance out such a rich steak. The Hideaway also nails the atmosphere. It's intimate, stylish, a little sexy, and feels tucked away from everything even though you're right in Beverly Hills. The whole place makes dinner feel like an experience. Great steak, great sides, beautiful setting, and a really fun night out. Definitely 5 stars for me.

When I approached the restaurant's hostess stand there was nobody there so I just waited patiently for a few moments for someone to come. A young lady entered behind me and walked past the hostess stand carrying a cake and I assumed that she was maybe already inside. But no, she walked past me and grabbed the hostess's attention as she was heading back to the hostess stand. The hostess did help her out even though she came in after me.. And I was still at the hostess stand waiting. It did kind of leave a little bit of a mark in my mind but it didn't ruin the night for me. All of the staff was very helpful and friendly. My food was good for the most part but what we ordered was not worth what I spent. I ordered the Tablita. The meat was seasoned perfectly and delicious. I also prefer a medium well steak. Several pieces of my steak were charred to the point of bitterness around the edges. My biggest issue with the Tablita is the sides are not enough to share. There was about a cup of rice and one cup of beans to split between two people. All of the sides and condiments were basically enough for one person. The grilled onions, the guacamole, the Pico and pickled onions were a great compliment to the meal, but I still don't believe the $145 price tag was worth it. I understand that this is a Mexican style steakhouse, but even at steakhouses shareable meals include shareable sides. We ordered an extra side of the Esquites and honestly, it reminded me more of corn with taco seasoning than actual street corn. Unfortunately, we didn't eat most of the corn. Also, it was my mom's birthday. I put that it was her birthday on the reservation and that was not acknowledged by anyone.. That was a little bit disappointing. Most steakhouses do some sort of a birthday acknowledgment. I can't say that the experience was completely ruined. My mom still enjoyed herself. And it was an opportunity for us to try something new. I would come back again and maybe try happy hour or tacos at the bar. But I 100% certain will never order those same items again. Bonus points for having very delicious chips and salsa and purse hooks at every table at least on the patio.

    The best dining experience in Beverly Hills I've ever had!…read more From the moody decor to the food to the service, everything was so well curated and refined. The caviar omakase is the must order thing here. Everything is very small bites, but if you are mostly there for drinks then à la carte is a good option. The omakase was fantastic - nice sized portions of caviar, paired with thoughtful items like a mini lobster roll, a salmon burger, and even ice cream. The drinks are also delightful - you can taste the notes of every ingredient and nothing was too overpowering or unbalanced. But the service is by far the main reason we'll be back. The staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly, on top of being knowledgeable and presenting the menu in a well practiced way. They made this birthday dinner so special and went above and beyond. They do automatically add gratuity but I would've tipped more than that if possible. Incredible spot in Beverly Hills and more private and tucked away than some of the overly packed tourist destinations.

We ended up at the Maybourne Bar in the Maybourne hotel, a solid B+ lobby bar that I'd visit again under similar circumstances. The space was attractive but the vibe was strange, if not uncomfortable. Just weirdly bright lighting and a different crowd from the usual L.A. bar scene (hotel, Beverly Hills). It was pretty quiet at 10:00 on a Saturday night, and we were able to grab seats at the bar. Service was fast and polite. We ordered a Midas Touch and a Big in Japan, both decent cocktails that cost a full $30 apiece. The Midas Touch was a colorful spicy margarita with El Tesoro Maybourne Edition Reposado, Empirical Ayuuk, Grand Marnier Louis Alexandre, saffron, lemon, and honey. Big in Japan was a Gold Rush variation with Hibiki Harmony, sudachi honey, lemon, sansho pepper, and yuzu bitters. There are better, more interesting cocktail bars all over L.A., but I'd recommend the Maybourne Bar if you're staying at the hotel or otherwise looking for an upscale bar in downtown Beverly Hills. You can get food, too, though most of it seems to involve caviar.

The outdoor seats were very cushy and comfortable, it's perfect for sitting with your fur baby, and the restaurant provided water bowls upon request as well. Servers were all really friendly and the food did not take long to come out, though it wasn't too busy that Sunday afternoon around 3pm. Would definitely come back here to try the cocktails with other fusion bites next time we're in the area!

    The restaurant itself is very cute, but the menu is a bit all over the place--sushi, Latin dishes,…read moreand pasta. We ordered rolls, salads, ceviche, and pasta, but everything was just okay--nothing memorable. We had to ask for wasabi and ginger three times, and the server seemed confused. Service overall was friendly but very slow, and the restaurant wasn't even full. The pasta was a miss, and the "salad" wasn't really a salad. Drinks were the highlight--great martinis and well-made cocktails. That said, our bill was over $600, and none of us left full. Portions are tiny. Go for drinks and ambiance, but I'd skip the food.

    Dining at Dante in Beverly Hills was nothing short of incredible! We were in California celebrating…read moremy cousin's bachelorette weekend, and after a few underwhelming dining experiences, Dante completely exceeded our expectations! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed warmly by Joy at the front, and our server, Alex, made the evening feel truly special. The service was exceptional, the ambiance was beautiful, and the views were the perfect finishing touch. Every detail of our experience stood out, and it quickly became our favorite restaurant of the trip. Safe to say Dante blew every other place we visited out of the water. We can't wait to come back!

    Unfortunately, we had a really disappointing experience at Dante. We had dinner on Saturday, 10/3…read moreat 6 PM for a party of six and were celebrating a birthday. It took over an hour for our food to come out. Whenever we asked our waiter for an update, he seemed annoyed and would just tell us, "probably another six or seven minutes," rather than actually checking on the status of our food. He also hardly checked in on our table, and we had to ask for drink refills instead of them being offered. At one point, he even spilled food on our table, and overall the service felt inattentive and dismissive. We also had to remind him multiple times that we were celebrating a birthday, which was frustrating considering it was supposed to be a special dinner. For the type of restaurant Dante presents itself as, I expected much better service. Waiting over an hour for our food would have been frustrating on its own, but the lack of communication and the attitude from our waiter made the experience significantly worse. Unfortunately, the service really put a damper on what was supposed to be a birthday celebration.

    I've been to the Lucky Tiki in HLP and finally had the opportunity to check out the WeHo location…read more The occasion - my "brother's" birthday. We had reservations for a Sunday night and were seated at the best table in the house. This speakeasy cocktail lounge is small & dimly lit, which creates a cozy & intimate atmosphere. The Polynesian inspired décor is on point. Bamboo beaded curtains, thatched lamps, tropical prints, & an eight-foot tiki statue add to the charm. Our server Sean was fantastic with a capital F! He entertained us the entire evening. Of course, Tiki cocktails served in kitschy glassware are the main attraction but they also offer Island inspired dishes if you are hungry. (You can also order food from Tail O' The Pup downstairs.) The building was once the recording studio for The Doors, so we had to order The Ghost of Jim Morrison. Sean delivered the flaming drink while singing a Doors tune. Elvis in Hawaii arrived on a platter with an Elvis head on it. Lucky Tiki Old Fashioned was presented in a treasure chest with smoke coming out of it. The Flying Fish came in a cool Blowfish vessel. The Lucky Mai Tai was one of the best, the Classic Daiquiri was nicely balanced, and the Rum Barrel packed a punch. All the drinks were tasty and strong so we ordered a few nibbles: Coconut Shrimp, Lucky Orange Chicken, & Wok-Fried Chow Mein. The food was yummy and hit the spot. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the presentation of the drinks and ambience. Thank you Sean for making our visit to Lucky Tiki a 5-star experience. *Metered street parking.

I love a tiki bar (usually a wine drinker, but a dry martini or a good tiki drink, will speak to me at times!) and this place does not disappoint. Service is easy and the vibes are so fun. They have fun gimmicky drinks (Captain's Inner Circle!) and the old stand bys (exceptional Mai Thai.) The decor is also so fun (Jim Morrison's old studio) and you can order hot dogs from downstairs. Only reason they aren't 5 stars? They implement seating time limits, even when it's not super busy. I 100% understand they have to have turnover, but I would gladly pay a little extra, to hold a longer reservation! Street parking, but don't drive...get a driver or a Waymo!

The restrooms are clean and cute Parking is slim to none! What do you expect? It's on the Sunset Strip. I can't speak to the food as we stopped in for a quick beverage before heading down the road for our dinner... But what they were serving to other patrons looked and smelled delicious. It's small. Grab a seat at the bar (which is really about it...) and start your journey to the craft cocktails with one of their friendly staff and bartenders. Be there or be square

    The whole mythology of this place being a "neighborhood gem" is officially dead. Whatever charm it…read moreonce had has completely evaporated. What's left is a joyless little room with indifferent management and service that can feel actively hostile. It can get very crowded, but... The energy is just off. It no longer feels warm or welcoming, and the type of crowd it attracts now can make the cramped space feel actually menacing. The staff also becomes strangely abrasive and aloof. Especially the younger male bartender who works on Fridays. I would never go again. Even trying to order another drink somehow feels like you're inconveniencing them. It's genuinely sad how they've managed to ruin what used to be a good thing. There is absolutely no reason to put up with this place when you could go to Cecconi's, the Tower Bar, Bar 1200 at the Sunset Marquis, Jones Hollywood, Laurel Hardware, Ysabel, the Roger Room, On the Rox, or Mic's instead. The name a few! Any one of them will give you a better room, a better atmosphere, and a much better evening. TBH, I would rather endure the mechanical-bull chaos of Saddle Ranch than spend another night dealing with the bizarre vibe here. That alone should tell you everything. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
