    Wrap
    Yierou M.

    This place got over the previous cheesesteak/kabob place inside the shell gas station! Food tasted great and the portions were enough for at least two meals! The owner was so pleasant and nice. Everything tasted fresh and even the presentation looked good after traveling in my car for 15 mins. The gyro wrap was huge! The kabob entrees you can pick between chickpeas or spinach (both delicious) and the grilled tomato and jalapeño or salad. Automatically comes with rice and naan. I ordered the kabuli palau to try since I've had it elsewhere and it didn't taste that great. Hers was yummy and it came with pieces of lamb shank! We all agreed that we will definitely order again!

    This place sucks, food isn't good..... idk what else to say but yea it just doesn't look close to the picture, taste not that great either. But I was starving and I paid for it so I ate it :/

    I was looking for a new place to try out some good Mediterranean takeout from and I came across this surprising little spot in a Shell gas station in South Riding which turned out to be a surprising little gem of a place! The service was was very nice! I ordered the 3 lamb chops and a medium spinach saag to go. It was all still hot once I arrived home to eat. The food was absolutely delicious and very flavorful! I will definitely order from here again!

    This place is inside a Shell gas station. The employees in the place are very friendly. The young lady at the counter smiled, acknowledged you and thanked you for your business - these simple things are hard to find these days. The food was good, first time trying the place. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars as they messed up my sons order. We ordered chicken skewers from the kids menu but got another order of the ground chicken kids size. Looking forward to trying other things on the menu as their prices are very competitive.

    Lamb chops #3

    Curiosity had me try this place and glad I did! A Mediterranean kabob place inside a Shell gas station in the suburbs of South Riding area who knew? This place had surprisingly good fresh quality food. Ordered online and selected curbside delivery. The lady that answered the phone was so pleasant and nice and she delivered my order to my car with a smile. Got their #3 lamb chops and #9 chicken and beef combo both with chickpeas sides. Loved the accompanying charred jalapeño and tomato, their yogurt sauce was yummy. They also serve all of this with naan which was a bit chewy and underwhelming, but this could have been because it steamed in the bag before I arrived to pick it up. I appreciated how fresh their ingredients were, simple things like the salad had noticeably fresh leaves and cucumbers. They serve your kabobs on top of a huge portion of delicious and fluffy rice.

    I tried it for the first time and was happy with the taste and price. It's a small place inside a shell gas station service was awesome

    Located in the back of the Shell gas station convenience store in Stone Ridge.

    Ordered online and the app said the meal would be ready in 5 minutes. When I arrived, the lady at the counter said they needed to adjust the estimated time on their ordering interface. It was ready 20 minutes after I placed the order online. Completely reasonable. Food was fresh and appetizing. I ordered the Chicken Kubeidah Kabob and the Falafel Plate. Both were excellent. Their side of chickpeas was the most flavorful I've had from any other local kabob establishment. A happy surprise! Definitely plan on stopping in here again.

    Very expensive for the quality of food at a gas station joint. Food was mediocre, if I am desperate, I'll go again.

    Don't let the name fool you, Ocean8 is just as much a restaurant as it is Hookah lounge, if not…read moreeven more of a restaurant! It's criminal that this place has so few reviews. The atmosphere is modern and inviting, and not overwhelming. I ordered food to-go because I did not want to deal with the Hookah smoke, and this is what I suggest for anyone else not comfortable with Hookah. The food is absolutely worth it! I ordered the Uyghur Samosa and Lamb Kabob. Uyghur Samosas are flaky, buttery pastries packed with a ground meat mixture(just like Vietnamese Pate Chaud!). Super delicious. Now, I'm not a lamb guy but the lamb kabob just blew me out of the water. Not gamy in the slightest, the meat is tender and has plenty of spice. Pickled onions and pita are a nice compliment. Could not recommend the lamb enough!! Please do yourself a favor and visit Ocean8, they deserve more recognition.

    Ocean8 Restaurant went beyond our greatest expectations in food, service, & ambience. Incredibly…read moregratifying especially in the rich flavors and succulent taste & textures of the food served at dinner. Ali, Raoul, and the spectacular staff of Ocean8 for created a superb dining experience & introduction to exotic Ugyhur & Afghan cuisine. The staff and people we met there and dined with were very kind & gracious towards us. It was our first experience with Uyghur and Afghan cuisine and food we never had. All of the food was highly delicious. We had appetizers, dinner, and desserts in a buffet style. Servers came to our table and provided cups of ice and canned / bottled drinks of water and soda to us. The manager, Raoul, went from table to table to talk and provide assistance to us and all of the guests. Despite the huge crowd of diners, the staff were very professional and made sure all the guests needs were met. The appetizers we sampled were the: *Turkish Cheese Rolls The Star of all the appetizers. We loved the rich, lush, and creamy flavor. It was ideal to eat this appetizer first before sampling the other appetizers. ( Crispy, thin pastry rolls filled with creamy feta cheese and fresh parsley, lightly fried to perfection - reminiscent of the Italian version of a mozzarella stick) * Punjabi Samosa This appetizer gave an intense punch of flavor & spice in the first bite. It was the spiciest, unique, & most memorable flavor among all the appetizers served. ( A Punjabi Samosa is a crispy, golden pastry filled with a spiced blend of potatoes, peas, and aromatic herbs. Deep-fried to perfection and served with tangy tamarind and zesty mint chutneys. A classic North Indian street food favorite. * Uyghur Samosa Very easy to eat, delicious, and reminded me of a hand held version of chicken pot pie. My least favorite yet still a good appetizer. ( It is a breaded appetizer filled with seasoned minced beef and onions, topped with sesame seeds. ) This was the last appetizer I ate, and it reminded me of an Asian & Arabic smaller version of a chicken pot pie. Very tasty. ) * Afghan Homestyle Bolani I love how it was mildly flavored with spice and it was like an Afghan version of a quesadilla. ( An Afghan Bolani is a crispy, stuffed potato flatbread from Afghanistan filled with potatoes, green onion, chili peppers, and fresh herbs. It's pan fried until golden brown and crispy then cut into wedges.) * Garden Salad - A fresh and vibrant mix of cucumber, tomato, onions, and peppers. Dinner was Uyghur Pilaf Rice, Lamb chops, Uyghur Lamb Shish Kebab , a meatloaf like burger with an onion filling inside it, Ocean8 Chicken Chops, and Cacık Yogurt. The dinner entrees had more spice and intense flavors than the appetizers. My favorite entree was the lamb chop especially when eaten with the side of Uyghur pilaf rice and the cacik yogurt. The other meat dishes were superb in their flavor, spices, and presentation as well. Cacik, pronounced ja-jik is a Turkish yogurt and cucumber dish that's very common in almost all regions in Turkey. It was my favorite side & condiment to combine with the rice and dinner entrees. It reminded me of raita, and I ate the cacik with my dinner entrees the way I would eat raita. Raita is a classic Indian side dish made with cool, creamy yogurt, crisp cucumber, onions, and fresh herbs. It's a flavorful way to balance out the bold, spicy flavors of Indian food. We ordered two takeouts of the dessert we wanted to try at home after eating so much at the restaurant - the Tiramisu Cake. It was light, airy, and melted in your mouth - dessert perfection in taste and texture. I usually skip dessert but I could resist not trying this dessert. Overall, we were very highly satisfied and grateful for our dining experience at Ocean 8. We look forward to having future food experiences there.

I'm a local customer and live just a minute away, so I've visited more than once. I came in for lunch today with my wife and our 1.5-year-old son. After placing our order and sitting down, the server loudly yelled from behind the counter for us to come get our water. It felt uncomfortable and unprofessional, especially with a young child. When I placed my order, I asked for extra white sauce, and I asked again when the food came out. Both times, the request was ignored. I also mentioned that we hadn't received our drinks, but instead of addressing it, the server again yelled for us to get the drinks ourselves from the cooler. The food itself was okay, but the bread was very poor--hard and barely edible. I even called the restaurant later in the evening to share my concerns, but was told the server was off at that time. Overall, very disappointing experience, mainly due to the customer service. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and leads to improvement.
