I must say that the best thing about this place is the ambiance. They are very intentional about the dim lighting and using items (ex. Wine) to create exquisite art throughout the establishment. There is a lot of parking spaces present at the location. The service was great. Our servers were phenomenal and attentive to our needs. The food will take some time to come out once placed. Overall,the food was alright. I got the teriyaki salmon with sticky rice and shitaki mushrooms. The salmon was cooked beautifully and I love that the sauce was not too bitter or sweet. However, it would have been wonderful if it had some heat to it. The shitaki mushrooms added a pleasant surprise. You are definitely paying more for the experience than the food.

Lamb Lollipops

I finally got to try this place for happy hour and it was so delicious I went back again the next day. First things first, the place is really nicely decorated. Dim lighting creates a smooth vibe. They have a dining area, but the bar is the place to be. It gives very much sophisticated. The staff is very friendly and helpful and quick with the service. Tammy the bartender was my favorite. She started me off with a cocktail named The Osprey and it was really good. Check the picture of the menu to see what is all in it. The first day I went with some friends and family and we tried a little bit of everything on the happy hour menu. First was the Dynamite roll which was sushi. It was really good. Next we had the Crab Cake sliders which were to die for. They had this cheese on it that really made the slider. Next up I ordered the Lamb Lollipops, cooked medium and they came out perfect. Juicy and very well seasoned. It also came with this celery/carrot slaw on the side. Also great. Next up was the Short Rib Sliders. Now for these, they were good but could have used a little sauce to make them not as dry. But still good. We had the oysters next, which I'm not a big fan on raw oysters but these hit different. Made me rethink my palette. We also tried the Jumbo Shrimp cocktail. The shrimp were huge and tasted very fresh but my only problem with this is that there should have been more shrimp. It only comes with 4. Add one or two more and that would be perfect. Lastly, I had the Sakura Waygu cheeseburger. It was tender, melted in my mouth, and well seasoned. I mean delicious. All this to say it was a complete 10/10. I will be back for sure. Thank you for the great experience.

Blackened Snapper

Visited Ocean prime for the first time during Devour Indy. We don't know why we haven't eaten here before! For devour INDY they had a three course meal. The first course was choice of salad, French Onion Soup or deviled eggs. My wife and I both got the French Onion Soup. It was a cold night and it sounded good. Good does not describe the soup. It was excellent! In fact, it is some of the best French Onion Soup we have ever had. For the entrée, you could get 6oz teriyaki salmon for $18, 6oz pork chop for $25, 6oz blackened snapper for $18, or a 60z fillet for $20. It was $55. My wife got the snapper and I got the fillet. My steak was cooked just the way I ordered and like it. The blackened snapper was wonderful! Our meal was served promptly and was hot when it arrived at the table. The dessert option was five layer carrot cake or ice cream. Our meal was so filling that we got our dessert to go. They have a nice lounge/bar area. They have a happy hour until 6 PM on weekday nights. Good prices on both drinks and food. They serve a bowl of free popcorn in the lounge. Very nice atmosphere in this area of the restaurant. You can just go, sit in the bar, and make a meal of appetizers during happy hour. We will definitely return! Service was also outstanding. Very professional and attentive. Our bill was accurate.

Came here for the Devour Indy event with my dinner group. We received fantastic service and the food was phenomenal, with the exception of the carrot cake, which was unfortunately what I was looking forward to the most. I had the deviled eggs for my appetizer which were nicely filled, could have used a tiny bit more flavor, but were delicious with a lot of filling piped atop. For my main course I had the salmon which came on a bed of sticky rice amidst a soy butter sauce... So this was hands down the best salmon I have ever had in a restaurant. The rice was perfectly done, not mushy and not too hard either. The soy butter sauce was simply divine. And the salmon ... also done to perfection. So often you get a dry piece of fish, this was a juicy delicious and rather large piece of salmon. Sooo very good. Alas the carrot cake, what a tragedy there. Granted it has been a while since I had ventured here (simply financial reasons) but on my last visit I enjoyed the carrot cake, which then had been a light fluffy, mile high high to die for affair. It had been so good, I remember it vividly and so I talked everyone into getting it for dessert. Now I feel guilty for that because what we got was far cry from my last experience. While this cake had the same amount of layers, each layer was dense, hard and tasteless. I would never again pay money for that. But back to the good parts. I had been torn about which cocktail to indulge in and my server took the time to make recommendations. I decided on the Berry Bubbles, which is named well. The drink was indeed bubbling looking like a witches cauldron and it kept going and going and going. I was a bit hesitant to drink it at first, afraid of getting bubbles up my nose, but they did not. I got to taste some of the creme brule too, which is huge and super delicious.

Chop Chop Salad

Ocean prime is my absolute favorite restaurant. As soon as I walked in I was treated with two lovely smiles and the atmosphere was perfect. I got my complimentary coat check and was seated almost immediately. I opted to sit at the bar and they brought my truffle popcorn and water that I requested. Christian had amazing service and I got my favorite drink (Black Orchid) and the Red Snapper , the house salad & the carrot cake. Parking includes self park or valet. I come here atleast twice a month and truly enjoy each visit .

Last week, we enjoyed dinner at Ocean Prime celebrating my son's successful school year. I hadn't been there in a few years but I'm so glad we decided to go. Our server James was amazing and he was very attentive and made sure my son felt seen and special on such a very busy Saturday. My favorite was the steak and the deviled eggs! The steak was cooked perfectly. Thank you James for an amazing experience; when we return we will definitely request you!

Jasmine H.

I believe you are paying for the service because the food was under seasoned to me. It has been several years since I have been but I was not blown away after my last visit. As a lover of popcorn I throughly enjoyed the popcorn that was for the table. 5 stars for the service!

Kevin T.

TL;DR: Come for the service. The food is alright but the drinks and the atmosphere are more notable than the grub Came for quick happy hour drinks and bites before dinner Ordered: - truffle popcorn (free): this was delicious and perfect appetizer to whet the appetite - Steak tartare (2/5): pass. went against the servers suggestion and that was the mistake. dry tartare. way too much bread. not good. not worth. - Hamachi Crudo (4.5/5): delicious and pretty plate. A little over-sauced but otherwise great - Asparagus side (4/5): perfectly cooked asparagus. Skip the hollandaise. - Bacon creamed spinach (4/5): really good. would've been way better if they paired it with something to dip it with Will be back for the drinks, popcorn, and the good conversations with the staff Cheers, Ocean Prime

Pineapple Picante
Cassandra W.

Some of the best calamari I've had! I loved the sweet chili sauce it was tossed in. The waiter we had recommended the lamb lollipops, and he was spot on. The lamb was juicy, tender and perfectly cooked. It's nice having a waiter that truly knows the menu. I highly recommend coming for happy hour. It's all night on Thursday in their lounge. The patio is also super relaxing with a slightly tropical vibe.

Black Orchid
Kelsey H.

We came for my birthday and had such a phenomenal time. Walking inside, it was absolutely beautiful. We were quickly greeted by our server. She recommended a few drinks and I got the black orchid. The martini glass had an ice cube with an orchid frozen in it - i loved it! Our food was fantastic. It was staged perfectly where we had time to eat and digest but didn't wait too long. We'll be back!

Mango sorbet
Arie L.

We could not have had a better experience. Last night of Devour and this place knocked it out of the park. 5 star service from all the staff. Great recommendations. The pretzel bread was amazing. French onion was the perfect umami starter. Incredibly hollandaise for the oscar style filet. Steak cooked to perfection. And the mango sorbet finale for a sweet ending. We will be back

a plate of food on a table

We initially went to Ocean Prime to celebrate my wife's birthday with no expectation other than her choice for seafood. Based on past experience I didn't have this restaurant as one of my favorites. However, our experience today changed my opinion of this restaurant. The hostess set the tone for us with the heart felt greeting. It was sincere and my wife felt it. As we set at the table our waiter "Joe" greeted us enthusiastically which again made us feel that much more welcome. He provided an extensive overview of the menu and specials with great accuracy. Joe showcased his knowledge by allowing us to provide input and then giving recommendations to best suit our taste buds. Since it was cold outside I opted for coffee. I wasn't prepared for the coffee I tasted. I pride myself on a good cup of coffee but this coffee was amazing! I asked Joe the name of the coffee he stated it was local provider by the name of Hubbard and Cravens. I have never of it but will surely remember and find out the location. This is the closet to one of the top Jamaician coffee I have tasted in years. Next, bread was brought to the table that just as tasty as any bread I have in long time. The pretzel bread was my favorite. I could have eaten a whole plate of it. As an appetizer I ordered the lobster bisque soup. Without question one of the top soups that rivals the lobster bisque soup I tasted often while living in Massachusetts. For the main course I ordered the Chilean Sea Bass that included broccolini, Pearl Onions, Potato Purée, and Truffle Vinaigrette. Sides included Mac n cheese and sautéed spinach. By this time I was full to capacity but paced in anticipation of what was to come for the grand finale. While waiting for the main course I drunk a pot of coffee and asked for another one and more bread. Although I didn't have much room left I managed to taste the goodness of the Chilean Bass meal. Utterly melting in your mouth. I can't state enough how pleased I was with the entire meal to include the Mac n cheese and spinach. After giving much thought I have now moved Ocean Prime into one of the top 5 slots as best restaurant Indianapolis. This is based on ambiance, taste, and customer service. This restaurant excels in all areas. Please pass a sincere thanks to our waiter Joe for his professionalism and superb customer skills. Ocean Prime congratulations for a job well done and making the night memorable!

They also have local beer available, and some snacks. The bar has a door that enters from the mall, but also a door that you can access from the theatre. There are lots of tables here, and it's never crowded. It's usually pretty quiet except for the sound of whatever is playing on the TV above the bar -- usually sports. All of the bartenders that I've encountered have been extremely efficient and friendly. They'll usually ask you what movie you're here to see, or how you're doing, which I don't usually care about but it's nice when they do it here.

In fact, they have five different spritzes on the menu, which I love to see. Of course, they have the classic Aperol spritz. But they also have some creative takes, like the rose spritz, which is what I chose. It was very tasty, light and refreshing, and not too floral, which can happen with a rose-flavored beverage. Spritzes are amazing but not enough sometimes, so I also got a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. Yum! The pour was generous. I kept my drink orders simple this visit, but Thieves has a whole menu full of creative cocktails. What you do when you enter is just sit down, and someone will come by and take your order. But if you're visiting for coffee (because Thieves is also a coffee bar), you can order at the counter. I don't recall if they offer food. This is mostly a place to get drinks. And it's a lovely place to get drinks. Thieves is located in the heart of Broad Ripple, which means that parking is atrocious.

They were very accommodating to such a large group, many of whom are not really cigar smokers. At the back of the space is a large bar with an equally large humidor behind it. The humidor attendant was helpful and patient with the members of our party that didn't really know what they wanted. We were seated at a long table near the bar, though we took up a couple of smaller tables as well. They do a phenomenal job of air quality management, even though there were a ton of people smoking, the air seemed quite clean, enough so that a non-smoker would probably be comfortable hanging out with a friend who was smoking without being uncomfortable. Though they only have a small selection of beer, they did have some fairly good options. I had a Goose Island Cherries Jubilee Bourbon County Stout (quite nice), and a Camacho cigar. I didn't have any food on this visit, but the menu did look promising, even if a bit over priced. Overall this is a very nice spot for a cigar and a drink, I will likely be back when in Indy again!
