COLUMBUS, Ohio (April 15, 2015) – Ocean Prime Detroit is excited to announce that Louis Morgan III has been named as the restaurant’s new general manager. Morgan brings more than a decade of industry experience and has been with the company since 2012.

Morgan was offered a management position at P.F. Chang’s Indianapolis in 2008 where he gained valuable management experience for four years before joining the Cameron Mitchell Restaurants family in 2012.
