    Ok so let me start by saying this place never disappoints. I dined here on 11/14 with Victor as our server and he didn’t disappoint. We were running behind on dinner due to traffic and a tight dining time to go to a show and he wasn’t upset that we asked for a rush order since we literally only had 45 mins to sit eat and pay. Victor I thank you for handling us with grace. Dined again on 11/30 with my husband and ended up here on a whim and we had Hunter as our server and he was amazing from sitting to paying he was attentive and honestly really kind and very assertive when I mentioned my allergy. Hunter made us feel like nothing was too much of an ask-even when I asked for 1 extra bowl since the takeout bowls there are of good quality. Ocean Prime will always be my go to and Victor and Hunter made my November visits memorable. Thank you.

    Our waitress did a great job. Food was good. Value was above average. We had the last seating for lunch. They needed to turn over the restaurant for dinner. They never rushed us and were very accomodating.

    Had a delicious lunch here last weekend. Service was friendly and prompt and the view is splendid. My husband enjoyed his chicken katsu very much. The lobster tempura roll as are the lobster wantons is extraordinary. I would definitely recommend Luna Asian Bistro.
