3800 Ocean
We call it the “collective kitchen.” For the menus of 3800 Ocean are inspired not only by the local abundance of South Florida’s renowned crops that thrive under a hospitable climate, but by the regional flavors that stir the souls of our collaborative team of chefs. Each chef brings a new insight to the table: the comfort food favorites of New England; the fire and spice of Mexico; the Caribbean traditions of Jamaica; and the ageless classics of Long Island. Our own local abundance of fresh produce and seafood allows us to take the collective kitchen dining concept quite literally. Everything is made from scratch. Every taste evokes an emotional connection to a past culinary memory, or perhaps a future craving.

We ate on the patio. Outstanding ocean views. Server acted like we were in convincing her. Dodd was good but not memorable. Go for the views!
excellent food and service with a beautiful ocean view.
Outstanding short ribs and filet medallion entrees!
Empty restaurant but the food was fresh, cooked to order and very good. The chichi cocktail was great and the service was excellent. The fish was a little pricey, but very good. We would recommend this restaurant.
The menu was limited due to Covid however the food was amazing! The chocolate creme brûlée was excellent! As were the apps. The salmon dish and wild mushrooms.
Plenty of space indoors for distancing. The service was also great.
Huge Christmas tree in the foyer was beautiful! Thank you!
Sunday Menu was very limited
My date and I arrived at the restaurant and had valet for the car. Then the hostess checked us in and asked if we wanted inside or outside dining. I chose outside initially but went back inside as it got very windy and chilly. The menu was very limited. Maybe 5 or less items per appetizer, entree and desert section. But the food was fantastic. I had the crab cake covered grouper. It was sooooo good! No leftovers. My date had Ribeye steak and he loved it as well. We wanted wine but they didn’t have that many selections because they were changing the menu. There was plenty of room to social distance. The ambiance was great and the views were as well. I would give it a 5 star but I think most things have changed due to Covid. But I definitely would go back and recommend it to others
We had breakfast three times here and is was delightful. Inside FAR better than outside. Gracious servers. Food was very tasty, good portions.
Bar is terrific.
The menu on open table was not the menu we received. The app needs to be updated. Unacceptable!!!!
The menu was limited but the food was excellent (Caesar salad, scallops and fruit and goat cheese flatbread) and wine selection was fine. We were one of the few people in the restaurant so we had a great beach view table by the window and it was very quiet. Enjoyable evening.
The food and the is spectacular. Our waiter happened to be less than ideal. There were only 3 tables with a couple at each in the whole restaurant. He seemed preoccupied and wasn’t attentive at all. Over the course of a 90 mi Ute meal he came to our table once to take our order, once to fill up our water glasses when I hailed him from across the room and once to being the bill while serving the desert. 3 times in 90 minutes is unusual for a very nice place.
Wonderful Ocean view
What happen wasn't acceptable and manager could have handled it better. Will not be returning.
The manager and staff were super friendly and very eager to make sure you felt comfortable and enjoyed your diner experience! Food was also exceptional!
We were at a Marriott Vacation Club property in Palm Beach Shores, FL. The resort was fabulous. I had to use some Vacation Club Points by the end of the year, and I was told I could use them to pay for dinner at the Palm Beach Marriott Hotel on Singer Island. We had always had good success at Marriott propertied and It was our anniversary so we thought going to 3800 Ocean would be a great way to celebrate. We could not have been more wrong. A reservation was made in our name and they told them to "take good care of them since it was their anniversary". We should have been tipped off when we arrived and saw 3 tables in use. I thought it was Covid related. It was food related! They had no record of a reservation and we were told to sit anywhere outside. The "Outdoor waterfront dining" was round picnic tables without umbrellas. We were told not to sit closet to the water because the wind might blow our salad away.
Because of Covid, I suspect, the menu was small. 5 items small, then some burgers. My wife and I ordered entries. The Grouper I had was actually pretty good, but it was covered with "crab" that was like a crab flavored stove top stuffing. It had yellow mashed potatoes that tasted like instant, and a green pile of stuff they called spinach but it was little green strings. My wife had Filet Mignon. We had never seen it served covered in gravy before! She also had the plastic yellow potatoes.
The kids got a turkey burger and a chicken sandwich. The kids are 28 and 27 and there was nothing they would eat on the menu. We ordered the least costly bottle of wine at $68 and it was a screw top and was not that good. All told it was a $220 meal that I rated one star because they did not have a half star. If you ever have to use your points like we did, just eat lunch at the resort. It will be much better and not leave you totally disappointed. I tried to be understanding due to Covid, but it could have been much better than it was.
For a pricey restaurant as 3800 Ocean is, this was one of the worst dining experiences ever! The service was mediocre but the food was horrible. We both ordered $40 filet mignons and both were overcooked. And I ordered asparagus as my side but it came out with broccolini. The worst part was the broccolini was cold to the point that it seemed to be taken out of the cooler and put on my plate. I will never be back! And shame on Marriott for having such a horrible restaurant on their beautiful property!
Andrew the manager was awesome. Food and service was great. View of ocean was wonderful. Great experience
I understand that the Wuh is a serious issue. It may be difficult to find employees that want to sign on for a promise of 50% lower tips based on the county limits on seating compared to pre Wuh. On this night there was one server for two very large parties (10plus) and about a dozen tables of 2 or four. The man who seated us immediately brought us water. After that it was 20 minutes of NO ONE making eye contact with us. The ONLY waitress finally approached us and said sarcastically that she would be right back. We left.
It is a hotel captive restaurant. This one doesn’t have enough crew to serve the natives.
Explore before eating here.... so many better places... head north!!!!!
Very nice server, limited menu, but good.
Had dinner to celebrate us getting married and it was a fantastic meal! Staff was great. Thank you
Food tasted horrible, restaurant floor was dirty, paid almost 300 for burgers and salads.
Staycation honeymoon since my wife and I are first responders. We thought this was going to be nice and the food was terrible and the server was not personable at all.
The restaurant is nice but obviously on limited menu service due to CoVid. The food selection was just ok but overpriced in my opinion. The view would have been nice but a huge rainstorm came and spoiled it (not the restaurant’s fault). However, the screaming noisy kid was something that was definitely an ambiance spoiler. Overall, It wasn’t with the $110 check.
W3e went for my husbands birthday dinner. that was the first thing I said to our waitress as she introduced herself. We didn't see her much after we placed our order, she was much too busy for us. I tipped just 20% but felt like dropping a penny on the table:-(. No birthday trinket at the end of the meal, no, "Happy Birthday" sir, NOTHING. We had to take our bill to the register like she sort of pancake house, because she was nowhere to be found. Then, "Salt in the wound" came when the table next to us had everyone singing happy birthday for someone at their table...and YES, he got a birthday dessert!
Thoroughly enjoyed the food - scallop dish was wonderful as was the burrata and heirloom tomatoes.
Really great staff! So friendly and really spot on with the safety protocols, we felt welcome from the moment we arrived. Menu was a bit abridged but had everything to offer you would want. I had the grouper and my wife a burger, both were great and quickly served. The Pina Colada was amazing and our server went out of her way to make it special.
If in the area I highly recommend 3800
Beautiful location with a view of the ocean. Service was outstanding and the food very yummy.
The resort was not clean or well maintained. The resort was not enforcing social distancing at the pool areas. The dinner menu had vey limited choices. The servers were overwhelmed not enough staff. The food quality was very average for the price. There are 4-5 star restaurants within 10 miles of this resort for same or less$$. Went for a staycation regretted it will never go back. Such a shame this used to be a great resort very high end. Now it struggles to be a Ramada Inn ! The one bright side was the housekeeping room clean ordered clean towels there in 3 min.
Slow service and an extremely limited menu, perhaps due to current health conditions.
Spent $70.00 dollars on food that was bland! Lack of interest and boring!! Fast food has more flavor!! Never again!!
Great food. Great service. Great atmosphere. Although the menu was limited due to rephasing protocols after Covid, selections were great.
Excellent service and extremely nice staff with very quick servers.
We went to this very nice restaurant for dinner in June of 2020 so obviously they have just opened with restrictions due to covid-19. The staff was excellent and the ambiance was very nice. The menu choices were very slim and while the salads and hamburgers were very good, the other items we ordered were extremely basic for the price. I ordered the spaghetti and meatballs and was pretty disappointed as I expected it to be a little elevated for $24. The meatballs were pretty tasteless and the sauce seemed like it was out of a bottle. No chunks of tomatoes or basil and no offer for graded cheese. It was something I could cook in my kitchen for a few dollars. I hate to give a negative review when we are just happy to be out and about right now and the staff was so nice but the food just was not worth it for the price right now. Hopefully that will change soon and we can come back!
Excellent place, with good food, great service, nice view of beach (when light out) . Our waiter was excellent.
You know you are at a wonderful restaurant when they can cook a thick filet to the temperature you request!! Server Lauren was great. Our mozzarella and tomato salad was outstanding and beautiful! On top were white balsamic vinegar pearls that were a true burst of flavor!! Amazing. There for a special birthday and it will be a dinner to remember!
Superb service from Jennifer for a late lunch by the windows overlooking the beautiful ocean. Cobb and Caesar salads were fresh and ample in size.
Great for families and a relaxin g meal
We went for a Valentines dinner. As soon as we got seated in the hotel lobby as opposed to the restaurant we were a little perplexed. It felt like we were seated at a wedding with the flimsy furniture to match. We then proceeded to wait 30 min. Plus for drinks. As soon as our drinks arrived a full Bloody Mary was spilled all over the table. No big deal though, that was just an accident. We ordered and then waited another 30 min and no sign of appetizer or soup. We witnessed multiple tables complain of cold food. At that point we made the decision to leave and find another place even at the risk of not eating or having room service. Major disappointment for having made this reservation a month prior to our valentine weekend getaway. If they were unable to handle the reservations because of an event I wish they would have canceled so finding another reservation for such a busy night would have been possible.
Our seating was at tables set up in the lobby of the hotel. Our view was of people carrying their luggage through the lobby and going back and forth to the pool. It took 15 minutes for the server to take our drink order and another 30min before our drinks arrived. We were there 1 hour before the soup arrived which was actually good. They brought the wrong appetizer the first time which I should have kept because the correct one was really bad. We didn’t eat it. One hour and 30 min after being seated our food arrived. The halibut was over spiced and over cooked. It looked and tasted like they had reheated it. We asked for boxes for the dessert and left. $250 for two people and most of the meal and all of the experience was bad.
Very nice. Food is great, both in presentation and taste. The service is outstanding and attentive. Definitely would go back and would recommend to others. Had the shrimp cocktail, the grouper, branzino and mango Pana cotta. The chef gave my baby their delicious mac and cheese and she loved it. Everything was really nice
