We were visiting the Oceano hotel for a memorial service and walked 3 blocks and enjoyed some of the best italian food we have had! Authentic sauces, great fish, great mozzarella, great pizza and pasta with a great wine list. The owners story is awesome and his name is Roberto who was gracious with his time to share his journey. It was so good in fact that we went back the second and last night of our stay!
