I took my daughter out to celebrate her acceptance to the Grad school Medical. We had such a good time. First of all I made a reservation for outside, but manager was so nice and accommodating to change it so we can sit inside of the restaurant. They were keeping all measures to make sure it won’t be overcrowded inside. Food was excellent to perfection and delicious as always. Steaks were prepared the was we asked. Great and friendly place. Definitely recommend to go there.
Delicious food in a comfortable tent. Fabulous service and am overall a lovely experience Z.
Thank you Oceanos for a wonderful family event we had with you.
We love Oceanos. We patronize almost once a week and enjoy special occasions with our family at the restaurant. The waiters and busboys to the owners are top notch. Recommend this restaurant very highly.
Outstanding service and food!! Def worth every penny and will def be back
My husband and I ordered the oysters tower and the oysters were so fresh! The grilled octopus was the best we ever had. Will be back again soon. Highly recommend.
Had not been there in years and kept waiting to find the right "occasion." We figured our first post-pandemic dinner out for a birthday was just right. They did a great job making you feel like you were eating in an upscale restaurant even though you were under a tent, in a parking lot. Tables were sufficiently separated and precautions were used. The mediterranean influence was evident in the menu. We started with the "dip" sampler with pita. It was excellent. I had scallops - which were seared perfectly and delicious. He had halibut topped with crab meat. Also great. Dessert was a light custard with shredded phyllo and some honey. Sweet, but not heavy. Service was good - perhaps could have been a bit more attentive, but given the "running" involved, not too bad. Definitely recommend!
Tastefully done outdoor accommodations which during this time helps you to feel comfortable dining at a restaurant again.
Excellent meal in a safe outdoor open air tented setting.
Always a lovely experience. Dover sole and the steamed king crab legs were delicious. Their seafood always taste fresh and done to perfection.
This place is a HOME RUN! The outdoor dining experience was so special. The food and seafood is some of the best you can get in New Jersey. I had such a great time.
The entire experience was outstanding from the appetizers through dessert. Entrees were wonderful and the wine selection was impressive. This was only our 3rd visit but there will be many more in the future.
Excellent food and service.
Excellent experience.
Very limited vegetarian offerings. Service was slow too
Unfortunately, the food has tasted less and less pleasing over the last few months. My wife and I enjoy going there for the oysters, but things like the fish or steak have come out over cooked the last two times in a row. While oysters are great, we used to enjoy having other pieces of our meal be equally satisfying. Not sure if we would go back again.
Everything at Oceanos was outstanding, from the food to the service to the atmosphere. First the tent is gorgeous. They did an amazing job decorating it. It is very welcoming and the best part is how warm it is in there!
Our server Jean was exceptional. He was very helpful, extremely nice and attentive.
The food was beyond incredible. The octopus is the best I ever had. My sister got the twin lobster tails which she couldn’t stop talking about. I had gotten the Chilean sea bass and it was amazing. It literally just melted in your mouth. The portion sizes are a good amount. It is definitely worth the price. Everything was so fresh and cooked perfectly.
We will definitely be coming back!
An absolute favorite, for so many reasons -- ambiance, incredible seafood, attention to detail. Fabulous, fresh raw bar selections, and entrees always out of this world! Thanks, Nick for the special attention, too :)
Awesome! Always good!
Just about a perfect lunch. Nice patio setting. Waiter attentive and accommodating!
Great service even better food highly recommend this restaurant
Birthday lunch with a friend. Food was delicious as usual! Fried calamari melts in your mouth, Shrimp and scallops shish-kabob and stuffed shrimp were delicious! Best baklava ever!!
Oceanos has been a seafood staple in Bergen county for a long time, while o personally have not been here in over 5 years, it was even better than I remember! My husband and I, who enjoyed dinning out a few times a week have not been out to dinner since the start of the pandemic and adding to our family, our children are 2.5 and 7 months old.
We selected outdoor dining for our first night out as parents of 2, we sat in the outdoor terrace section and it was perfect! Beautifully decorated, ample heating lamps (though it was warm that night for late March so we didn’t even need them), the ambiance was wonderful and safe, tables spread out very well, even for outdoors.
We had oysters and the grilled octopus to start, both were excellent. A bottle of wine, and a few cocktails later we had our entree, the red snapper special stuffed with jumbo lump crab, WOW!
We are both seafood snobs and my husband who hardly raves said it was the best fish since we were on our honeymoon in Maui, now that’s saying something!!!
The cheesecake was wonderful and so was the limoncello (not on the menu but as an Italian, I always ask for it!)
Our waiter Matthew was wonderful, professional and personable.
It was a perfect night for us to get away for a few hours, we lingered for a while because we could and we had the best time. Thank you Oceanos, from a former Fair Lawn girl, I’m still very impressed!
I went out with my cousin for dinner. We had such a pleasant time and our meal was excellent presentation and taste. I would definitely recommend for everyone to go.
Food was awesome. Dover sole excellent
Beautifully done outside dining. Tables far apart. Service good. Servers well masked.
Delicious lunch.
We’ve been to Oceanos before and decided to celebrate my wife’s birthday there. Everything was OUTSTANDING!!
Freshest oysters I’ve ever had. Never noticed how important it is to have them shucked right ! And the bread ?! My god Fresh. Had the rib eye today for lunch and what a monster. Tender; right temperature. Best seafood/ sea grill in Jersey ! Everything from start to finish- spectacular .
OUTSTANDING!! Oceanos is our favorite restaurant! Absolutely delicious! We come here every Sunday!! I can’t get enough of the Surf and Turf!! My wife loves the Alaskan King Crab Legs! Drink always the midnight Manhattan. THE BEST! 👍👍👍
The ribeye was very chewy. So much so that I sent it back. Was here before the lockdown and it was a much better experience. Overpriced fir the food quality. Overall 2 stars in my opinion. Maybe I’ll try it again in a year.
We were enormous fans and always recommended Oceanos. In fact, it was the restaurant of choice for family birthdays last summer and business lunches throughout COVID-19. We even agreed to be photographed last summer and we are on the website/Instagram. We have ice cream in the kitchen with the owner/staff. Tonight’s experience was beyond disappointing. My husband ordered the ribeye medium. It was served well done. We complained - which isn’t our typical but it wasn’t edible. Mistakes happen and we weren’t originally too upset. However, they took it back, sliced it and re-served the same steak. Sorry that is not how you fix an overcooked steak that costs $60. They tried again. Brought another well done steak. Meanwhile, no one asked about my dinner which was not good either - the halibut special which was supposed to have a fresh mango salsa - it wasn’t fresh but rather some sort of mango preserve that was overly sweet on top of fish that had no taste. We clearly didn’t “dine” together. The manager came over once when we first sent the steak back but never checked in again. We had ordered starters (they were good) and a glass of wine. We paid the bill and left. Unfortunate- they lost a good customer.
Excellent all around!
Everything was wonderful! Food and service superb. The set up outside is beautiful and they are handling indoor dining extremely well during pandemic. 5 Stars for this gem!
Excellent and we were celebrating my birthday and they brought me a nice dessert with a candle.
Been there a few times and everytime is great. Always fresh seafood. African lobster tails were delicious!!
I eat at Oceanos often. The food is always superb and the service is exceptional! During Covid I dined with friends outside approximately once per week at Oceanos. They did not disappoint. The outside setup is great and we thoroughly enjoyed every visit. Thanks for a wonderful dining experience.
The food was excellent and the staff was also very attentive!!
Absolutely delighted. One of my top 3 places to dine - love it !!!
Always great
As always, good food, wonderful service and great ambience both indoors and outdoors.
