5/5 DenvHer C. 1 year ago on Google
Ocean
Prime
has
debuted
three
new
luxury
cocktails
&
we
couldn’t
wait
to
try
them
out.
We
arrived
at
Ocean
Prime
in
the
Denver
Tech
Center
and
we
were
seated
in
the
Lounge.
The
Lounge
was
classy
and
airy
with
windows
that
opened
directly
onto
the
patio.
Our
server
Jackson
was
awesome.
He
was
poised,
warm,
&
gave
us
all
the
details
we
needed
to
know
on
the
premier
cocktails.
PR
Manager
Alex
was
as
sweet
as
can
be
and
checked
in
on
us
while
we
dined.
The
three
new
cocktails
included
the
Crystal
Margarita,
Smoked
Old
Fashioned,
and
Hot
&
Dirty
Martini.
The
Crystal
Margarita
was
made
with
Komos
Cristalino
Tequila,
Grand
Marnier
Cuvée
de
Louis
Alexandre,
Italicus,
Fresh
Lime
Juice,
Agave,
Ginger-Sesame,
&
Oak
Brulée.
The
margarita
was
shaken
vigorously
until
chilled
and
then
poured
into
a
cardinal
coupe
glass.
The
atomizer
was
sprayed
at
the
lighter
to
flame
the
House
Spritz
Mix
into
the
cocktail.
The
margarita
was
a
gorgeous
yellow
with
edible
gold
glitter
in
it.
The
cocktail
had
aromas
of
pineapple
and
bright
agave.
The
taste
profile
was
of
candied
citrus
with
a
zing
of
lime.
The
Smoked
Old
Fashioned
was
made
with
Angel’s
Envy
Rye
Whiskey,
House
Demerara
Syrup,
Angostura
&
Orange
Bitters,
&
Charred
Cherry
Wood
Smoke.
The
old
fashioned
was
served
from
a
decanter
and
poured
into
an
etched
highball
glass.
In
that
glass
was
a
pristine
2x2
Ocean
Prime
ice
cube.
The
cherry
wood
smoke
dreamily
combined
with
the
whiskey
when
poured.
The
cocktail
was
smooth
with
tasting
notes
of
dark
caramel,
maple
syrup
and
fading
smokiness.
The
Hot
&
Dirty
Martini
was
made
with
Olive
Oil
Infused
Belvedere
Vodka,
&
Calabrian
Chili
Blue
Cheese
Stuffed
Castelvetrano
Olives.
This
was
my
favorite
cocktail
of
the
night!
The
martini
was
shaken
vigorously
with
ice,
strained
into
a
prism
coup
and
garnished
with
the
stuffed
olives
on
a
metal
pick.
The
martini
had
a
wonderful
salty
&
spicy
kick
to
it
and
was
thick
on
the
palate.
The
Calabrian
chili
stuffed
olives
added
an
additional
layer
of
heat.
From
Ocean
Prime’s
lounge
menu
we
ordered
the
Blackened
Fish
Tacos,
Ocean
Roll,
Smoked
Gouda
Tater
Tots,
Chef's
Feature
Roll,
and
Prime
Cheeseburger
Sliders.
The
Blackened
Fish
Tacos
were
made
with
Sea
Bass,
Brussels
Sprout
Slaw,
Jalapeńo
Tartar
Sauce,
&
Lime.
The
sea
bass
was
buttery
in
taste
and
texture
while
the
slaw,
tartar
sauce,
and
lime
added
acidity
and
brightness
to
every
bite.
The
Ocean
Roll
was
made
with
#1
Tuna,
Salmon,
Hamachi,
Avocado,
&
Chili
Garlic
Oil.
Yum
-
the
Ocean
Roll
was
fresh
and
vibrant.
The
hamachi
was
luscious
in
texture.
The
chili
garlic
oil
added
subtle
spice
that
enhanced
the
richness
of
the
tuna
and
salmon.
The
Smoked
Gouda
Tater
Tots
were
made
with
Cheddar
&
Garlic
Aioli.
I'm
not
a
big
tater
tot
girl
but
I
always
go
for
Ocean
Prime's
tots
-
they're
that
good.
The
Chef's
Feature
Roll
was
the
DTC
Roll.
A
great
roll
with
crunch
from
the
jalapeno,
smoothness
from
the
cream
cheese,
and
nice
chew
from
the
tempura
and
rice.
The
Prime
Cheeseburger
Sliders
were
made
with
OP
Sauce,
Caramelized
Onions,
Tillamook
Cheddar,
Lettuce,
&
Tomato.
For
our
main
we
had
the
Teriyaki
Salmon
served
atop
Shiitake
Sticky
Rice
&
coated
in
Soy
Butter
Sauce.
This
is
one
of
the
best
salmon
entrees
you
can
find
in
Denver.
The
salmon
was
juicy
and
flakey.
The
teriyaki
glaze
was
bold
and
thick.
The
glaze
combined
with
the
soy
butter
sauce
gave
the
salmon
the
perfect
combination
of
sweet
and
tangy
taste.
The
veggies
added
nice
color
and
snap
to
each
bite
For
dessert
we
had
the
Warm
Butter
Cake
made
with
Fresh
Berries,
Vanilla
Ice
Cream,
and
Raspberry
Sauce.
You
guys,
I
dream
about
this
dessert;
just
thinking
about
it
makes
my
mouth-water.
It’s
one
of
my
top
3
favorite
desserts
in
Denver.
The
Warm
Butter
Cake
was
piping
hot
with
vanilla
ice
cream
sensually
melting
atop.
The
cake
had
a
lightly
crisped
sugar
exterior
with
a
densely
moist
interior
making
for
gooey
&
buttery
bites.
The
bright
fresh
fruit
complimented
the
rich
cake
perfectly.
A
must
order!
