    This was a beautiful experience! The dogs was incredible. As we got seated they gave us a rose for our anniversary. The waitress was very attentive and pointed out favorites on the menu. The ambience really sets this restaurant apart! The music was wonderful and made the experience memorable! We even got a free dessert for our anniversary. I would highly recommend this restaurant! We will definitely come back.

    Service was fantastic! We were there at 530 on a Sat and the noise level was perfect. I could see it being very loud in there though. The food was outstanding. We had steak and multiple seafood items. Oh and dumplings for an appetizer and creme brulee for dessert. Pricey but very much worth it

    Ocean Prime has now become my new favorite restaurant in KC. From the moment I walked in the door to the when the hostess flawlessly fulfilled my request for a booth to the ambience and special touches on the menu items (shrimp cocktail presented in dry ice!) to the filets that cut like butter. The coffee was presented in a french press and tasted delicious with our peanut butter pie dessert that was so decadent. We were craving another the next day. Our waiter, Jameson took great care of us all evening. This is my 4th time dining here and my husband’s 1st but we will be coming here in the future more often! Highly recommend.

    Everything was exceptional! Starting with the wait staff, who were so attentive, that they were there with utensils, plates, refills, etc., before I was even aware that I was going to need them. The food was 10/10 delicious, the ambience was perfect, I will definitely be back!

    We dined at McCormick's & Schmick's on December 23rd with a reservation for an anniversary celebration. The meal and service were wonderful! However, we were seated in the back room with no view. With reservations and with advanced notice of a special occasion, we would have expected a table with more ambiance rather than stuck in the back room. There was also a table of 3 (with reservations) that checked in after us, they were seated before us and they were seated in the main front dining area; seems reservations should receive priority seating.
