Don't miss the scallops, cooked to perfection and swimming in a flavorful beurre blanc sauce. The friendly and attentive staff will make your dining experience truly unforgettable.

What a delightful experience! The service and food were impeccable. We went midweek on the earlier side, so it was *very* loud with the after work/happy hour crowd, but spacious enough that we didn’t feel physically cramped.

The food was outstanding. We ordered the dynamite shrimp from the bar menu, then the branzino and the risotto from the dinning room menu and they were all amazing.
The hostess was so friendly and nice.
Will be coming back for sure.

We went for the prix fixe lunch menu. My crab cake starter was excellent, but hubby's calamari was cremated. We had monkfish for the main, and it was a bit woolly and overcooked, and the accompanying brocolli and potatoes were way overseasoned. The cookies for dessert were just OK. Some waiting staff were curt and unwelcoming, others delightful. Overall, it was a disappointing experience.

Oceana is a loud bustling restaurant that serves seriously good seafood. The waitstaff is professional and helpful. This is not an inexpensive place, but the food and experience are worth the high price.

Just had my dinner “experience” here. I can now die. I’ve had the best meal of my life! I am from a seaside town in Sicily and this fish was comparable to the fish that is caught fresh daily. The food just melted in my mouth. It is slightly expensive but the satisfaction was worth every penny. You MUST try this establishment.
Ps.staff was incredible. Thanks Felipe.
