Michigan's Prime of the Ocean

Ocean Prime is the peak of an ingenious practice they opened in 2006 to define the best in gastronomic, liquid refreshment, facility and atmosphere. They wanted to combine a great steakhouse with a great seafood restaurant. They set out to generate a place where the guests are greeted by name and partner with them in adventures of great cuisine, wine and beverage.  In August 2006 they opened Mitchell's Ocean Club in our hometown, Columbus, Ohio. As the restaurant expanded the Modern American supper club concept outside Ohio, They renamed it Ocean Prime, with “Prime” reflecting their guarantee to serving the highest quality steak, seafood, handcrafted cocktails and award-winning wines.

Have fun at their Blu Lounge for Happy Hour, Monday - Friday, from 4:00 - 7:00 p.m. Relish in certain expressly priced foretastes, handcrafted mixtures and world class wines. On Sunday evening, enjoy half-priced bottles of wine in their dining room as they have over 300 selected bottles from their compendium.  Bottles priced $99.00 and lower, but their promotions are excluded on major holidays.
