Always fabulous!
Oceans' preparation of whole, wild fresh fish, particularly from the Mediterranean, is genuinely outstanding, as good as the best in Greece and Italy. This is reason enough to visit this restaurant. Other dishes such as octopus and shrimp cocktail are very good, but not at the same level. Deserts could use with some improvement. The service is friendly, attentive and kind. The wine list is good, but a bit overpriced, and not really interesting. We sat on the outdoor balcony along 19th Street which we found quite comfortable.
Went to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. The venue was beautiful with a very impressive bar. Excellent and attentive service from start to finish. Carlos our waiter was a gem, the sommelier was helpful and another gentleman was extremely knowledgeable about wines and spirits. The food was excellent, scallops special was on point. Looking forward to return!

The Covid outdoor set up is amazing with the heat lamps and separation from pedestrians. Also Christina paid great attention to us - we always want to sit in Christina’s corner. Food was also so tasty. This was out third or fourth visit (we come with friend who make the res) and we love it. Scampi, shrimp and all the raw dishes are so tasty. Great restaurant. Thank you!!!
We had a great experience there for the Valentine’s Day. I have heard a lot of awesome things so we finally decided to try. The food was amazing, great service. We loved everything. If you like sashimi that place is for you.

We're so pleased that you had such a great experience! It was such a pleasure to host you two on Valentine's Day. And thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. Warmest wishes, Thomas Yagoda Restaurant Director
We had really awesome time at Oceans NYC. It was really nice treat for the Valentine's Day. We ordered too much food for two of us. We ordered the whole fish sashimi, charge grilled octopus and dragon roll. And we had the Hawaiian walu fish with truffle fries. The walu with fries was already too much. But we so enjoyed the food! The drinks were awesome too.
Dear Mark, Thank you for joining us on the special occasion. I'm so glad to learn of your positive experience on Valentine's Day and will be sure to share your feedback with the Oceans team. We hope to host you again soon! Thomas Yagoda Restaurant Director
Came for Vday. Food was incredible. Had some sashimi and an entire grilled Branzino. My partner had a tuna roll (rolls are just ok) and a sea bass entre which was delicious. Devoured everything. Well worth the price if you care about quality above all else.
Most amazing ambiance. Best sushi and cocktails too!
We are so grateful for your kind feedback; and we are thrilled that you enjoyed your experience with us! Warmest wishes, Thomas Yagoda Restaurant Director

Ocean has beautiful outdoor seating, truly outdoors, with heaters that really work. The food is wonderful. We even got a whole fish when they did not offer one on the menu, so ask. Gratis dessert cause we were just that lovely. All yummy. So, go!

Great final dinner. Can't wait until they open the restaurants again.
Great food - Great service - Beautiful restaurant - So sad they are being forced to close indoor dining for now. :-(
The food was good although the server brought out three different appetizers at the same time. She should have asked instead of aging all the food get cold

Love this place so much. Fresh seafood, impeccable service, and incredible overall menu. Will continue to be a repeat for me.
Michael, Thank you for such generous comments. We are grateful to have your support and looking forward to welcoming you back. All the best, Thomas Yagoda Restaurant Director
Very friendly service with great fresh seafood make this place one of my favorite place. Must try the rocketman!
Everything is excellent!
It was a mixed bag for me, the
Rocket man roll was excellent,
The ceaser salad was very bland, it
Tasted like kale, very underwhelming,
The salmon entree is missing
something maybe how it is cooked,
Didn’t have a lot of taste, nothing
Special. A restaurant of this caliber
should use king salmon and try the
One L’avenue at Saks which I would walk 25 miles too!
The fish entrees are just missing
Something and I felt the same when
I ate there before
The desert strawberry cheesecake was
The best I ever had!!!
Not only was the food amazing, but the cocktails were wonderful. The only conwas that they kept switching our waiter and they knew it was my birthday and didn't bring out anything for me. My partner had to remind them at the end. Even at STK and other restaurants they pay attention to these details.
Hi Andrea - Thank you for such thoughtful comments. We are so grateful for your valuable feedback and extend our sincerest apologies for the service miscue that you experienced during your visit. It does not reflect the level of service we aspire to provide our guests. Should you have the time, please reach out to me directly. I'd like nothing more than to make amends for the mis-step you experienced on your special day. All the best, Thomas 212-209-1055

We ate outside and it was very open and very safe and there were heaters. Service was excellent and we enjoyed everything we ate particularly the tartare and sushi rolls.
Wonderful experience. Definitely a splurge destination but well worth it.
