    Connors Steak & Seafood: A Perfect Evening! An absolutely spectacular evening at Connors! My piano teacher’s Japanese Wagyu was out of this world, while my Parmesan-encrusted halibut was an easy 10/10. The drinks were fantastic, and Christian, our server, simply the best. Even the ambience was exceptional. In fact, it was so romantic that I briefly considered proposing marriage to my dinner companion. Fortunately, I exercised restraint until I’m certain she’ll say yes, which I think will be never but if it could happen, it would be here at Connors! Outstanding food, drinks, service, and atmosphere. Connors gets an astronomically enthusiastic five supernova stars!!!!!

    We had the diver scallops and rack of lamb. Both dinners were delicious. The service we received was impeccable. Would love to return back. Just sitting by the water for drinks and appetizers would be wonderful!

    Ask for a bar table so I anticipated a little more noise. I make this a regular monthly stop with the girls because everybody can find something they like and we can try new things to share the Wednesday. Drink specials are also amazing part of the evening. Still trying new things and never disappointed

    We celebrated our 30th anniversary at Ocean Prime, and it was a wonderful experience from beginning to end! The service was top-notch, and the ambiance made our evening feel so special. We enjoyed the Chilean sea bass and Alaskan halibut, both excellent dishes made with high-quality ingredients and skillfully prepared to perfection. We finished our celebration with a delicious cheesecake that was the perfect ending to a memorable meal. Thank you to the Ocean Prime team for making our anniversary such a special occasion. We look forward to coming back!
