If you want dinner and a beautiful sunset to view this is your place. The restaurant is right on the beach. The only drawback is that you can't walk on the beach because it's private. The place is quite large with more than one level. I went where I was able to see the sunset and it was beautiful. The food was good. We ordered mussels and jumbo shrimp. The service was good. I however DID NOT like that they automatically added 20% gratuity on the bill for 2 people. This was a turnoff. The tip should be based on the service you received or for large parties read more

Food was horrible. The steak was unchewable the riceballs were definitely refried in old oil. The cauliflower steak wasn't prepared correctly & the sauce tasted like watered down ketchup. Service was horrible. We didn't get our entrees until 2 hours later forcing us to order more bread! They charged $40 for bread for 4 little loaves of bread. Not garlic bread or cheese bread or anything special. Just bread! Dessert was awful. No coffee was offered & the warm brownie with ice cream was COLD. I sent the brownie back to be reheated & it came back the same way. What a disaster. The view is a beach & pretty but the food sucked big time. Do Not go to this place to eat!!! Less than 1 star!!! read more

Found this place through Tik Tok because of the views. I was a bit iffy about it because I did not see the reviews until I arrived. There were a lot of complaints of the service but still decided to give it a chance because we did the drive. We picked outdoor seating. We were placed on the 2nd floor with the view of the ocean. It was definitely hot but I wanted the views. Also I love the heat! So if it bothers you, definitely pick indoor seating. Luckily there were couple of tables with shade available. There was live music playing through the night from an awesome duo. I ordered the Salmon which came with rice. Wish the salmon had more flavor, but it was still good. The staff were amazing! Always checking up on us. I would return back to try out other items. read more

The food here is decent but overpriced because you're paying for the private beach views & gorgeous interior. Feeling full off vibes The service is a bit confused lol we made a res but ended up waiting an hour still. For how fancy the restaurant is you'd expect more top tier service, they were still super friendly just not really efficient :') read more

Genuinely very bad. I went and spent 3 hours waiting for my bland and gross food. The atmosphere was nice but everything else had horrible. The service was extremely bad and waiters were super rude!! Do not EVER come here unless you want to waste 600$ on overpriced gross food. read more

I decided to give this restaurant a try because it is beach front and it seemed nice. I saw pictures of a burger that they have in their menu and figured that after our meal we would take pictures on the beach and then head home. I was soo wrong! - First, the restaurant does not have access to the beach, so you will see it but not be able to go anywhere near it. - second, there was no burger in the diner menu whatsoever. - third, food is gross! The flavor. The texture. The portions are super small. The price is not worth the meal at all. We ordered, - a lobster bisque soup, 3 penny size pieces of lobster over a sauce that tasted like chef Boyardee. = $15 - Fried Calamari, or should I say, fried breading in a desert plate. =$25 - Salmon with wild rice, the sides were not allowed to be changed, so we order a side of mashed potatoes to go with it. = $38 + $12 - Caught of the day, which was a filet of a fish (forgot the name) with seasonal vegetables, this was actually very good and the only thing I recommend. = $45 - Lobster Roll with French fries, montauk style. This was okay, the fries were soaked in oil and the bun tasted old and hard. The lobster itself was okay. Would not get again or recommend, especially for $45, nope! The problem: My lobster roll had a piece of the hardest part of the shell. As I bit down into my roll, I bit something that I swore cracked my tooth, as it hurt and automatically felt something very hard in my mouth. The piece of lobster shell also cut my lip on the inside of how big and sharp it was. Their resolution: - "oh we apologize, but at least you know you're getting real lobster" - from the direct manager. "Oh I'm sorry, I'll speak to my manager" from the server, then proceeded to add 20% tip to herself on the bill for a small party of 3. (BTW, the server was very nice and polite, removed the tip after we brought it up. But it was not a mistake how she tried to play it out, she knew I was upset about my hurt lip and wanted to ensure she got tipped well.) read more

Sat at outside sushi bar on a Friday night. Does this place understand food safety? The bar was disgusting, too many server trays, misc containers, etc right next to the sushi prep table. You could barely see the chef (who is a great guy). Prices are ridiculous! Wedding venue guests x2 told me the food was blah and service quick and rude. So ... no thanks. Thanks for the intro to Bayville. Consider the town erased from "places to go". Sorry Bayville. read more

Manager David was very welcoming. Ambiance was a deck overlooking Long Island Sound. Server Andrew answered our questions about the menu, and gave us recommendations. The food was served quickly and was beyond delicious (salmon and ocean pasta). Overall, a most excellent dining experience. Don't miss out, especially before summer ends. read more

The view is spectacular especially if you catch the sunset. As far as the food goes it's subpar. I ordered the shrimp risotto and thought it was missing flavor. The sushi wasn't that great tasting. The drinks were good and tasty. Service was ok not great. The food is Overpriced you're just paying for the views. read more

Let me start this review by saying the food, drinks & ambience were incredible, also our waitress was attentive and great. However the front of the house manager on the other hand needs to find a different career. We arrived at 12:40 PM a little early for a 1:00 PM reservation for 6 people. First the hostess can't find our reservation and starts making us pull up proof on our phone and mind you the restaurant is empty not busy at all. We didn't have email or text proof but we had a voicemail from the same exact hostess calling a day prior confirming our reservation. At this point this is where for the front of the house manager butts in. He was absolutely rude and disrespectful to us right from the start not believing we even had a reservation. When he finally agrees to seat us he says "your reservation is for 6 people there are only 4 of you here" and then says "your going to have to wait until your entire party is here before we can seat you, it's policy and we won't allow you to hold a table". I can understand not wanting to seat us until our entire party is here if we didn't have a reservation but we had a reservation and we weren't holding tables. We wanted to be seated to start ordering drinks and appetizers, our other 2 party members were stuck in a little traffic. Finally after pleading and going back and forth he sat us before the rest of our party got there. He was rude, dismissive & shady. We weren't seated at the table that we requested in our reservation because they lost the reservation so they had no proof we requested a specific table and when we asked to go to that table we wanted he said "nope it's already reserved for another party", and the reason I said he was shady was because I saw him take a cash tip from the party he sat there. So I guess at this restaurant if you throw the front of the house manager a $20 you will get a good table. I also witnessed this manager yelling at servers and treating his staff poorly. So although the food was good I will not be coming back if this manager is running things. Lastly, it was a member of our groups birthday and we let the hostess and FOH manager know and they didn't care or do anything for us. read more

It's always a pleasure to be warmly greeted by the hostess at a restaurant. Andi, escorted us to our table and could not have been nicer. Great job! Arianna, our server, was very helpful and suggested tasty sushi rolls. The rolls and the service were both excellent. Highly recommend Ocean Restaurant for atmosphere, food, and a warm welcome. read more

We came here for dinner for my birthday and the restaurant was so beautiful! It's right on the water and the sunset was absolutely lovely to see while having dinner. Our waitress was also really nice. The food was okay, it wasn't as flavorful as I'd like and was a little pricy for what it was but the experience of eating by the water was relaxing. read more

Went here for my birthday and enjoyed the most beautiful sunset dinner. Once we arrived we valet our car and we were greeted by some of the sweetest staff. You can tell the inside dining area was recently renovated and it looks so beautiful now! We had to wait for our party to arrive to be seated, so we sat at the bar upstairs and ordered some drinks. I ordered a spicy Paloma and it was really good. Once my whole party arrived, we were seated outside and at a big round table with an amazing view of the beach. Food overall was good. I ordered the lobster roll and it was ok. Definitely not the best lobster roll I've ever has. Felt like the bread could have been fresher too. Overall I was happy I had my birthday dinner here. The views are totally worth it! read more

If you are looking for a restaurant by the water with beautiful views, the perfect sunset, and good food look no further. Ocean club makes you feel like you are on vacation! I went with my family for dinner last week and we sat outside during sunset and it was the most perfect evening. The sunsets are so beautiful here that everyone scrambles for a good picture. Food is also delicious. I highly recommend their sushi and their Thai shrimp for appetizers. Staff was also very nice and accommodating.You just simply can't go wrong here. read more

We came here for our anniversary and it was great! The views were stunning. Our table faced the water. Our server was excellent as well. We started with oysters and the deep ocean sushi roll. The oysters were very fresh as was the sushi. Glad we tried the sushi there. We then had the lobster sliders. They were amazing. The rolls were buttery and the lobster was fresh and not chewy. While we ate, I sipped on the strawberry spritzer which was refreshing and perfect for summer! For the entree my husband had the ocean pasta which had shrimp, mussels, and clams in a creamy shrimp sauce. I had the scallops which were served over quinoa. read more

My husband and I had the best night with our best friends celebrating birthdays and Ocean on the Water nailed it from start to finish. The view is stunning, the menu is inventive, and the service is genuinely fun. Andrew, our waiter (aka Patrick Dempsey in the best possible way), made us feel like VIPs, knowledgeable, attentive, and perfectly witty. Logan and Dani behind the bar crafted cocktails that were both beautiful and delicious, with recommendations that hit every note we wanted. A perfect night out, we're already planning our next visit. read more

Our first time here, and wow! What an incredible location. No matter where you look every window has an amazing view. We sat at the upstairs bar because it was way too hot to sit outside. We were served by Jamie the bartender. She is super sweet, and wonderful at her job. Our food was delicious as well. The new manager who we also met so very nice as well. All of the staff were nice. We look forward to coming back again. read more

Beautiful restaurant and great summer vibes! Dined at Ocean on Saturday night. Was able to get a gorgeous outside table with the most perfect sunset ocean view. The service was fantastic all night from our attentive waiter, and even management checked on our table. Water glasses were filled without having to ask which we appreciated. The lobster was cooked to perfection as was the salmon. The sushi is always amazing and fresh at Ocean. My favorite is the Yellow Lantern Roll with mango. Ocean is our summer go to for delicious food, gorgeous ocean views and exceptional service. read more

Ocean was an amazing dining experience. We had reservations for lunch & from the time we walked thru the door it only got better. ADRIANA our server was a very engaging young lady that made us feel welcomed & explained menu choices & offered to have the bar create a mocktail that turned out to be most delicious & refreshing also the lychee rose martini was tasty & strong. We had the crab cake & calamari for appetizers & they were EXCELLENT.... real crab meat no fillers. Our entrees the fresh catch was red snapper with a rice pilaf & green beans & the Ocean's pasta... I only have 3 words FAB U LOUS. Not that we had any room but we shared the chocolate molten cake with ice cream & Adriana put a candle on the desert & sang Happy Birthday to me. The only thing that was wrong this day was the weather was not nice enough to dine outdoors. But we will be back so we can take advantage of the beautiful view as we dine on an incredible meal. Also let me mention Mel the restaurant general manager that oversees this great place. Thanks again Ocean!! read more

You definitely pay for the view and not so much for the food. It's a really nice location, especially during the summer. Food was mid, and service was good. Wait staff were nice but the host and the manager were rude and obnoxious. I would've given it a 3-star review simply for the location but the manager made our experience much worse. The whole restaurant was empty for our 5.30 reservation. We were seated in the back corner. When asked if we could sit at a table near the water, he responded by saying those tables are for regular customers -- there is definitely a better way to say it if that was even true to begin with. By the time we left, 80% of those tables were still empty. Dude looked half drunk and I'm really shocked they have a person like that running a restaurant that is supposed to be somewhat upscale. Never going back read more

This was a fantastic date spot due to the gorgeous ocean view and fancy decor/vibe! This restaurant is located within a venue space used for weddings and graduations etc, so the price is up there. It was a hot summer day when we went, and we were lucky to get a spot on the outdoor deck upstairs that had shade. The drinks were good, and the food was cooked well. Portion sizes were lacking given the price point, though the presentation was nice. Again, this is a wedding venue. There isn't much to do in this area other than a few waterside restaurants and private beaches, so I'm not sure I would come back unless I'm looking to spend some time gazing at the view and having some drinks with friends or a significant other. read more
