Enjoyed the Christmas movie themed Tinsel Town speakeasy. Sections were decorated for different Christmas movies (A Christmas Story, The Grinch, Charlie Brown Christmas, The Muppet Christmas Carol, etc.). Standard cocktails included a Christmas twist and were delicious.

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.

Fantastic experience!! Due to a change of plans, we arrived about an hour early for our reservation on Christmas Eve and they were kind enough to accommodate us right away. I also want to mention that we originally booked a standard table but the high top was even better for the views and ambiance. We sat right in front of the most beautiful mahogany bar and got to watch the bartenders climb up and down the super high ladder. The food was all exceptional but the baked pimento cheese tray was to die for. The fresh baked sourdough bread was also phenomenal. We had mostly seafood and everything was delicious.
