We found Oceana on a whim and it was one of the best restaurants we dined at during our trip. The restaurant is a little fancy and there's a wide selection of items you can choose from. We ordered the Calamary Milanese, the Roasted Beet Salad (THE BEST - One of my mom's most favorites out of all the restaurants she can remember), the Flat Iron, The Basa Veracruz (I believe), and the 7 Oceanas, we also had two drinks but I don't remember them but they were good. Alondra was our waitress and did a really great job with service. She checked on us regularly and made sure every dish was to our liking. The interior of the restaurant was very nice and is intimate dining styled with a pretty bar and dim lighting. All the dishes we had were cooked very well and were delicious and the service was great. I do want to try more dishes from this restaurant next time we visit. Definitely great place for dates, company dinners, and family dinner. Overall Rating: Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Menu: 10/10 Restaurant Vibes: 10/10 Price to Overall Dining (POD): 10/10 read more

OH YEAH! So lucky this restaurant is close by. That's what I'm talking about! The drinks, the hors d'oeuvres, the food... Those Spaniards do know how to do it and they must know what I like! One time I thought my order of pork belly was a little overcooked and too crispy and the pleasantly asked. "How would you like it"? Another time I thought my Calamari steak was a tad overcooked and again... "Let us know how you like it " was the response! What more can you ask for?! Go there! It will become one of your top five!! Superb service too!! Keep up the good work Oceana!!! read more

Our server Gabriel was fantastic! He was super attentive and friendly, making sure our water was always filled and plates taken away as the table was a bit small. We ordered the las chorreadas, Carson's salmon ceviche, and the drunken shrimp. We were also offered a complimentary carrot soup and it was actually super tasty, creamy, and lightly spiced. The ceviche was my favorite dish of the meal. I personally love eating very sour ceviche but didn't mind that this one was only lightly sour. The fish itself was nicely cooked and paired super well with crackers. As for the shrimp and the tacos, the shrimp was a bit too sweet for my liking but the sauce itself went well with the rice. The tacos were a bit hard but the meat and the fries were good. Overall, decent meal! read more

If you are looking for upscale Mexican cuisine, try Oceana. Everything on the menu is worth trying. Staff is welcoming and on their game. I had the La Burra (Seafood Burrito), right amounts of everything. Enjoy. read more

The food and service are absolutely perfect. There is no better place to eat fish, especially salmon in the valley. I love this place for good food, reaonsable prices and great service. An icon for a well-run restaurant by a family that really cares about food and service. read more

First visit, as they just opened this week. This is a family-owned restaurant which focuses on seafood and steaks. They also happen to own Oceana in Palm Desert, Salsa's Restaurant in Cathedral City, and Crudo in downtown Palm Springs. This family really knows how to do food and service right, as all of these places are wonderful. Being the first week for this location, there were some minor hiccups, but I'm certain that they'll be worked out in no time. Oceana has a modern, sleek décor and ambience. We were immediately greeted and seated by the hostess (she saw us walking down the sidewalk and opened the door for us). Alex was our waiter, and the service was good, including the other members of the service team. DRINKS: We started with a couple cocktails, a Triple Peach Margarita, Spicy Pomegranate Margarita, and a Fresas con Crema Margarita ($14/ea.). Well-made cocktails, very refreshing, and at a reasonable price. They have a decent wine list, and every Tuesday it's 50% off bottles. FOOD: We started by sharing the Banana Peppers appetizer ($16), which was delicious, and the 5 large, crab stuffed peppers were enough for a small group. For our entrees, we tried the Ahi Steak ($26), the Chipotle Shrimp ($26), and the Asian Pasta ($32). We also added an order of the Garlic Bread ($9), which was large enough for 4-6 people to share. Everything was well-seasoned and tasty. The Ahi Steak and Chipotle Shrimp were served with rice and potatoes, which I thought was a little odd (2 starches). The Asian Pasta was loaded with seafood. We had wanted to order the Scallops, however they were out, so we'll have to check those out next time. To finish off the evening, we tried the Bananas Foster Cheesecake and the Coconut Flan ($11 ea.) Overall, this is an excellent seafood and steak restaurant with very good cuisine and service with a smile. They're only going to be getting better and better as time goes on. We'll definitely be back for more. read more

Ate dinner here tonight because several friends and clients have recommended it to me. We live close by but never tried it. We came here on a whim and we LOVED it. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Alex was our server and even made some special cocktails for us that were amazing. We will definitely be back, also gonna try their Palm Desert location of the same name. I'd give them 10 stars if I could. The octopus was tender and flavorful, had it as both a starter and a main dish. We also had the Pork with Mole, AMAZING!! A must is to try their Flan, a great way to end the evening. read more

Arrived for an early birthday dinner & watched place fill up with nice diverse crowd/vibe. Service was excellent unobtrusively efficient & polite. Food was outstanding from simple Cesar salad to beautifully plated main courses of steak shrimp & chicken. A song & delicious chocolate cake for the birthday boy which was very sweet & delicious. *Don't forget the smashed garlic bread to soak up all the delicious sauce! **Open for lunch as well. Will be back. read more

A friend of ours set the reservation and he was in love with this seafood restaurant. This was his 4th time and my first, it was good, but there are places I would rather spend an evening. I will not complain about the service which is exceptional! Even before we needed something someone was there to give it to us or replace it...wow! The restaurant was everything you'd expect from a finer dining place, very nice. The entrees were good, the desserts however were a little disappointing. The coconut flan was a little more dense than typical and their "signature" dessert incorporated too much gelatin which gave it a weird texture. I would suggest they change it or improve it, either would work. Would I go again, most likely not, there are better places to go for $150 for two people for dinner. read more

Service was terrific, food good no Extraordinary but so so noisy! Terrible acoustics. read more

Had the octopus appetizer on guacamole. though the octopus was good, it came with lots of salsa and the guacamole was hidden at the bottom. You could not even taste it. Husband had the special halibut, the sauce had lots of flavor, but the halibut was way overcooked. service was really good. read more

This place was delicious, the food had so much flavor and their house made hot sauce was very tasty. The service was great as well, did not have to wait too long and the ambiance was very relaxing after a long day at work. Will definitely try again, I'm sure all the items on their menu are delicious. read more

The food and service is good, however the noise level is beyond loud. You can barely hear your dinner companions!

Walking in the host was amazing let me look at the menu. Then once I was seated they brought out some jicama offered bread but we didn't want them. I got the grilled salmon bruschetta no cheese and it was so wonderful and fresh it brought up happy memories for me. The person I was with got ahi steak the presentation was beautiful the food was great( his words) Everyone was really careful and kind and the ambiance was beautiful. I would definitely come here again. * some people were a little more dressy but I think there was an event going on) I was medium. Price was good for the portion size! read more

Excellent meal in a wonderful atmosphere. Our server Braulio could not have been more helpful. He was wonderful. I have a food allergy and he made sure my food was safe. We started with cocktails - try the one with tequila, avocado and pineapple! So good! For dinner we had strip steak, chicken florentino, a sea bas special and the shrimp with octopus and salmon. Everyone's meal was perfect. Everything was perfectly prepared. Dessert was also fantastic. If you're in the area check this place out. read more

Beyond compare. Every course was impressive, and service was stellar. Alex was a shining example of a server who cares and shares insights about the menu. The decor is classy and warm. read more

We took a large group there and the owners, chef, manager and Gina our server all made us feel welcome. The food was incredible as was the service. One of my top 5 restaurants in the desert. Best fish, soup and pasta around. A "not miss" place. Their salmon is off the charts! read more

Great spot for a variety of flavorful shrimp dishes! If I wasn't from Texas I would be a repeat customer. It was a late lunch so had plenty of attention. Service was great. read more

Good food but insanely noisy during "the season. " It's a very narrow room so if you sit at a table you're sitting between the (seated) bar crowd and Hwy 111 just outside. Great service though. I recommend their Palm Desert location which has more space and a patio, and the same menu. read more

our fifth visit and it remains SO good. Delicious Spanish takes on seafood.. the food and presentation is first rate. The meat selections are great too. Service has been excellent! I recently had the Alaskan Halibut Special, with a Mango Sauce and it was a generous piece of fish perfectly prepared. My husband's Tequila Shrimp was outstanding too, and is his consistent favorite. I had the soup of the day, but calling it Clam Chowder was a disservice. it was more of an incredible creamy Clam Chowder Bisque! it was the best I've ever had! they only thing holding back a 5 Star review, is the NOISE! Fernando should address the noise issue because a full house makes it too loud. and with food this good, it's gonna be full most of the time. read more

We had an amazing experience at dinner here last night. The manager (owner?) warmly greeted us and was very friendly. The food was outstanding. But what really made the experience so nice was the service we received from our waitress (Alexa?). The octopus was some of the best that I've ever had. read more

5 Stars - Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover! Don't let the plain exterior fool you--Oceana in Rancho Mirage is a total hidden gem! The inside is super fun and creative, with a great vibe that immediately makes you feel welcome. The food? Absolutely excellent. Every dish we tried was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. You can tell the chef really cares about creativity and quality. And the best part--prices are very fair for the quality and presentation you get! Service was outstanding--friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to be there. It's rare to find a place that nails food, atmosphere, and service all at once, but Oceana does. Highly recommend if you're in the area. Don't judge the book by its cover--this spot is the real deal! read more

Don't tell anyone about this place because I want it all to myself! Met a friend for an after work drink and some appetizers. Bartender was very friendly and efficient. Shrimp cocktail was delish. Ahi nachos were insane! Can't wait to have them again. Only suggestion I have is to turn the lights way down, it's too bright in there. Looking forward to returning and trying more of their delicious food! read more

From the moment you enter, all the attention is on you. I knew the experience would be great all around because the friendly greeting upon arrival means a lot! I was immediately taken to our table - where I waited for my friends to arrive, as they were running a bit late. There is a bar area to wait in if desired - or a cozy place to just sit and enjoy libations and food! Once seated, the server attended to me immediately with beverage choices and water. I enjoyed the plate of jicama, radish and cucumber which arrived after I sat down. I skipped an appetizer but chose the Surf and turf which was a succulent steak accompanied with three large shrimp, prepared scampi style. My friends chose the beet salad and a Cesar for their starters. They also chose the Tomahawk to share which included a separate ample plate of mashed potatoes and veggies. The service was wonderful, keeping an eye on us and making sure we knew he was close by. In addition to the gourmet food, I am always impressed with the service, and it is often not notable in most establishments. We shared a cheesecake for dessert with a delicious banana concoction as the topping. I look forward to going back and trying some other items, including some more seafood. Check it out for a five-star experience and support local! Oh - Jose was our fabulous server! read more

Excellent food and service, doesn't look like much from the outside but it really is a little gem!

The second Oceana restaurant from chef Oscar. A southern Mexico-Peruvian seafood. The ambiance is an upgrade from the Palm Desert restaurant and the same delicious menu and drinks. The people are amazing feeling like you are friends of the hosts like Arturo and Oscar. read more

The only review you need to read! It's greater Palm Springs restaurant week and I dined yesterday the last Saturday of May. I am in the restaurant industry myself so my reviews are sometimes not the best just because I expect the highest level of hospitality no matter where I dine. Anyway my Husband and I decided to try a new restaurant in the Rancho Mirage area. There is 2 locations the first in Palm Desert but this one was closer to Palm Springs and had only been open for about 2 months so I definitely was even more eager to dine. If you're using a GPS app make sure the city says Rancho Mirage my husband almost took us to the Palm Desert location. Upon arrival we turned into the parking lot and there was ease finding parking. We walked into the restaurant and were warmly greeted by several people with happy smiles. We checked in and were shown over to our seats and the chair was pulled out. Our server greeted us and told us water and fresh fruit would be brought to the table. His name was Alex! He gave us a minute to settle in and once we had waters and fruit he came to guide us through the menu. He explained everything thoroughly and was well versed on cocktails, wine, and the dinner menu. My husband and I chose their pre-fix menu option they had for restaurant week...which over exceeded our expectations. While we were ordering cocktails I asked our server if I could possibly pay for a pre-fix wine tasting in addition and made it happen. He told the manager Fernando who is also the owner what I ordered and he paired 3 glasses that went side by side with every dish. 1st course blew us out the water and set up a great foundation for the next course. The Caesar salad with the garlic bread was so flavorful , light and rich. Then for the next course my seafood pasta and the truffle fries I stole off my husband plate were amazing. Alex our server recommended adding Parmesan cheese to my pasta for a more bold flavor and that was perfect. The portions were generous in size and we were satisfied after our mains so they boxed up our dessert to take home. We enjoyed a dessert wine and 1 more cocktail before we left which was a Pinot Noir and their Smokey Sour. If you are new to wine or mezcal both of our drinks were light and balanced so perfect for newer palate. We had the best evening! We had a great table near the view and the ambiance was great with chandeliers in sight and the stunning 360 wine cellar. I can honestly say the food was fantastic but the service was the Star. They say casual dining but it truly gave an upscale casual dining experience from ambiance to food to service. If you are thinking about going dont second guess it. It was an amazing experience and we will be back! Ask for the server Alex he his professional yet personable and he went over and beyond for us :) Thank you Rancho Mirage Oceana! read more

We ate at the other Oceana in Palm Desert last year (loved it) and wanted to try out this newer one in Rancho Mirage. I have to say that all around- perfect dinner. The staff were very attentive. It didn't seem to matter if you were "their" table but picked up items or just checked on you as they walked by. I had the Flat Iron steak and my husband had the Red Snapper. The steak was flavored perfectly. It came with a side of some red sauce which I'm not sure what it was but did not add anything to the flavor so didn't eat it. When I had it at the other restaurant I think it came on top of an onions/peppers combo. The truffle fries it comes with are great. My hubby's snapper was served as the whole fish with head on. He practically devoured it. There was quite a bit of meat on it. I had their cocktail with vodka and watermelon. It was so good I really had to savor it thru the meal or I would have wanted a couple more. We really wanted to order their Bananas Foster Cheesecake to share but we already had something at home waiting for us. The restaurant itself was quite calm even though it fronts the 111. Nice bar too. We will be back!! read more

Such a great place! The food is fantastic! Such interesting flavors! I have enjoyed going to the Palm Desert location a number of times, and I'm thrilled that a new Oceana has opened in Rancho Mirage. It's a wonderful restaurant. Be sure not to miss ordering the garlic bread. It is so decadent! We ordered the Burundi, salmon, and shrimp. All three dishes were fantastic. For an appetizer, we had the lobster guacamole. It was to die for. read more
