    We enjoyed the three course meal and were happy to try new meal options that we have never experienced before. The scallops were good and I had the best halibut ever!

    Wonderful— it is always a treat at Ocean from the view to the food. You can’t beat the view and the food as always was delicious. Our server was great.

    Outstanding dining experience. We ate at another highly rated upscale restaurant in the area the day before. This place was much better.

    We could not have been happier with our dining experience at Ocean. We hadn't been there for two years and since, the menu has changed for the better. We had the four course menu and all four courses were plated expertely and tasted wonderful. Our server knew about all the offerings and made exceptional suggestions. When in the area again we plan to return.

    One of the most interesting and expertly prepared meals we’ve had recently. Everything was super fresh and the preparations were unique and well balanced. Never hurts either to have such a magnificent view as you dine.
