Ocean, Easton PA

What an amazing restaurant-The ambiance was just great—every detail was perfect, from the well-appointed tableware to the excellent service, and the seafood was out of this world

My boyfriend and I went on the afternoon of Christmas eve. We had reservations for 3: 30pm. (Highly recommend! By 4: 30pm the place started getting packed.) Everyone was extremely attentive. Every person working there had a task and they didn't miss a beat. Our waters were refilled immediately, our food boxed up within seconds of asking and the food! Let's talk about the food and drinks.
We both got their special drink of the night, they had just come up with it so they didn't even have a name for it but it was on point! Not too sour not too sweet, just right.
For appetizers we got the lobster bisque and calamari. The lobster bisque was creamy and velvety. I wanted another bowl!
For dinner I got the caramelized scallops with mushroom risotto. It comes with bacon risotto but they allowed me to substitute without hesitation. I appreciated that! I try not to substitutefor the most part but bacon is somethingI try to stay away from. The scallops were hearty and cooked to perfection. The sauce on the risotto was outstanding.
My boyfriend got the swordfish and he thought it was one of the best he's had. The flavors were on point.

Now let's talk dessert.we were so full and packed half of our meal but we couldn't leave without trying one to go. We got the très leches. I'm Latina and have has my fair amount of très leches but THIS ONE blew my mind! I didn't even have time to take a pic because when I got home and saw that beauty I couldn't stop myself. Overall an incredible experience!

I am never one to leave reviews (whether good or bad) but I had a terrible experience at Ocean and I want to give others a heads up.

About 2 weeks ago on a Friday night my fiance and I had dinner at ocean as we have many times before. Typically this is one of my favorite restaurants in the Lehigh Valley but this is the second time in a row the service has been awful. The two of us were there for over 2 hours because of how long it took the food to come out. After waiting probably 40+ mins for our dinner our server came and told us that they had accidentally sent our order to the wrong table and that it would be a little longer. I am very flexible and not hard to please so I said ok no problem

Our food came out a few minutes later and my filet was probably one of the worst steaks I’ve ever had in my life. If I was not so anti confrontational I would have sent it back and should have but I want to give others a warning on Ocean.

Because of the wait the manager gave us a free round of drinks and dessert which was a nice gesture and appreciated but we still ended up spending $150+ on a dinner we didn’t really enjoy and took forever.

Ocean Management - if you are reading this I am hopeful you will turn things around because my experience turned me off from booking any reservations with you for the foreseeable future

Calamari was overhyped; good, just not out of this world. I enjoyed the muscles. Entrées were the steak and sea bass. Both were great. The tres Leche desert was good as well. Ambiance was fun and not a stuffy restaurant feel.

Good seafood restaurant with simple and straightforward menu. We enjoyed calamari, mussels, fish and chips, and avocados salad. All came out promptly, no wait.
Good service, limited wine list.
Good place for alfresco dining.

We went in for Mother’s Day today and the seating was nice but we were upset by the outcome of the food. We ordered 2 steaks, a salmon, chicken, shrimp and pasta, calamari, oysters, clams, a salad and three deserts for each 3 course meal. Both steaks were extremely undercooked they were supposed to be medium well and they came out rare. We kindly told the waitress and she took the plate and brought the steak out with hair. The waitress ended up disappearing however the waitress from the table next to us ended up bringing our check and she was very kind. While walking out another server was standing at the door and we thanked her and she just stared back at us rudely ignoring us. Very disappointing that we went out to dinner on Mother’s Day with a $300 check and left hungry and a bad experience.

We had our wedding at Townley House Hotel and Ocean catered it for 50 ppl. Everything was incredible- we worked with Cassondra and Chip and they were the best so easy to work with and went above and beyond. They were so very communicative and answered all and any questions we had. The day of we had no stress because of how great they were during this process! The staff was hard working, fun and just amazing! The food was great and was delivered to all guest warm, tasty and presentable. The guest are still raving about the food especially Chilean sea bass! Everything was delicious and perfect. Highly recommend Ocean and Townley for a perfect date night, a gathering or even a small wedding. We cant wait to go back to Ocean for our anniversary and stop by Townley before & after for some cocktails!

I don't give out many 5 stars, but this place deserves it. First of all, the service is phenomenal. The food and drinks were absolutely perfect and delicious.

My mom and I had a three-course dinner on Mother’s Day. The Panna Cotta desert came in a plastic cup with the plastic lid removed. I couldn’t believe my eyes so I asked the waitress if that was how it was supposed to be served. She went to the kitchen to confirm, came back and told us “yes”! Wow…. The other desert, Vanilla Crème Brulee was cold in the middle and without strawberries. The three course dinner was about $53 each ($10 extra for Chilean Sea Bass)

If I could leave 0 stars I would. Worst restaurant I’ve ever been to overall. The owner/manager tends to profile people and judge everyone as well as a few of the servers. The food was terrible and our server gave us an issue about everything. I receive better service at Mcdonald’s and the gas station. Someone needs to shut down this place. Notice every 1 star review has something to do with the owner/manager.

My husband and I went to Ocean 235 last night for the first time for our anniversary & sat outside. First, the outside is so cute & aesthetically pleasing! We loved it!

I am 8 months pregnant and was super bummed when I read their cocktail menu because everything sounded incredible and not like the traditional drinks you see on menus in the valley.

The food was REALLY GOOD. We had calamari as an app and I'm not sure how they make their red sauce, but it was the best red sauce I have ever had in the Valley. The calamari was also crisp to perfection. It also came with an aïoli that was delicious as well. We also received bread and butter with our meals.the bread tasted a little like it was microwaved, but the butter was delicious, my husband ordered the tomato and mozzarella ravioli and a sun-dried tomato sauce and it was phenomenal. I had the crispy salmon that came with asparagus and fingerling potatoes in a mustard butter sauce, and it was heavenly.

On the reservation we made I advised it was our anniversary, not thinking anything of it, and at the end of our meals our server gave us ice cream to celebrate our anniversary, which I thought was going above and beyond customer service wise. Additionally, our server was amazing and attentive and super sweet.

10/10 would recommend and will definitely be back when I can enjoy their cocktails!

I would highly recommend Ocean if you’re looking to host a private party or just looking for an upscale restaurant to dine at. The owners and staff went up and beyond to ensure our night was perfect. The food and service was outstanding. It was a memorable experience that my wife and I will always treasure. Please do not hesitate to contact them for your next reservation.

Extraordinary Delicious!

We had an amazing experience…from walking in the door and greeted, seated and drink order taken. The staff were committed to great service and were friendly. Love the modern feel of the restaurant. Most importantly, from the appetizers, meal and drink on your menu tasted delicious!

First time at this restaurant for dinner, finally! The seafood was excellent. There were five of us having dinner and everyone really loved their entree. I had the seafood ciopinno and the broth was perfect. Looking forward to returning in the warmer months and eating in the alley next. I have seen this part of the restaurant many times lit up on summer nights and excited to try for myself

Ocean 235 is a remarkable dining experience. The menu is a masterful blend of traditional and contemporary dishes, all showcasing the freshest seafood and ingredients.

The staff at Ocean 235 are knowledgeable and attentive, ensuring that every detail of your dining experience is perfect. They are happy to make recommendations, provide information about the menu items, and answer any questions you may have.

The quality of the food at Ocean 235 is simply outstanding. From the octopus bruschetta to the perfectly seared scallops, every dish is expertly prepared and beautifully presented. The flavors are complex, yet balanced, and the portion sizes are generous.

Overall, I would highly recommend Ocean 235 to anyone looking for a world-class dining experience. With its breathtaking views, exceptional food, and attentive service, it is truly a gem among the many fine dining options in the area.

Very nice place for seafood and more! I got the oysters which were a special that day and they were very fresh. Our table also had the scallops and a burger. Scallops were also very good but the side was kind of lacking with it. The burger was MASSIVE and delicious, kinda hard to eat though. We also got truffle fries for the table which come with different types of aoli which I always like. The best thing by far was the lobster Mac and cheese, I usually am not the biggest fan of lobster but it went great in this Mac and cheese.

I just love this place. I’m not a regular, per se, but each time I go I am always impressed. The food is delicious. The atmosphere is cool and hip. The owner, Chip is always kind and professional.

Truly the best restaurant I've been to in a long time. I'm a picky eater who loves healthy options, without compromising flavor. Ocean does not disappoint. In addition to a perfectly cooked swordfish steak and drinks, our server, Sarah, was beyond outstanding. Truly incredible! Combine an outstanding meal with an amazing waitstaff and you have Ocean.

Always a good time at ocean. First time I came here was in 2016 and I got the swordfish and lobster empanadas, ever since it’s been my favorite spot in Easton. I’ve had the duck more times than I can count. Scallops and risotto always good. Lobster ravioli, Tuna udon, filet mignon, and more only thing I’ve never tried is the burger! But I’m sure it’s great. Forget to mention they have the best espresso martini!

Great atmosphere. Drinks and food were amazing. We will be back for sure! Highly recommend
