Ocean Primes Nationwide Are Serving Up Valentine’s Day Three Ways

South African Lobster Tail

​This Valentine’s Day, you may have to be more creative in celebrating that special dinner au deux. Dining out may mean donning your warmest coat and gloves for an outdoor interlude on a patio or in a romantic igloo, while many will opt to dine at home. Columbus-based Cameron Mitchell Restaurants (CMR) and its national Ocean Prime steak and seafood concept have all options covered. Dine out where indoor, outdoor or covered terrace options are available, dine at home courtesy their Valentine's in a box option or get their bubbly on the go beverage packages. Read on!

• 10oz. South African Lobster Tail with Lemon Garlic Butter 

Ocean Prime’s award-winning regular menu will also be available, and all restaurants will open early on Valentine’s weekend. Those in Boston, Detroit and Denver who want to enjoy an extra-romantic touch can reserve the private outdoor greenhouses or igloos available in those markets.
