    We had so much fun at Oceano! On their website, they said they have walk in times available, but we had to make a reservation for it because it's so popular! The earliest time we could get was 8:45 pm. They change the menu weekly. We tried the Rigatoni, pizza, and brussel sprouts. We loved everything we tried and ate every bite! The portions are a good size for the cost and everything was really well seasoned. Our waiter's name was Jason! Very kind, attentive to our table, and knowledgeable about the menu. The restrooms were nice as well. If looking for a fun restaurant to try out would recommend! I truly believe anything on the menu would be worth trying! If I lived locally would definitely come back!

    Was really looking forward to going here based on social media and past reviews, but what a letdown. The decor in the restaurant is cozy, but the ambiance is VERY stuffy. From the minute we walked in, you felt unwelcome. I waited in line to check-in, while my partner tried to snag 2 seats at the bar. He asked if it was "first-come, first-serve" at the bar, and was told yes. Yet, waitstaff AND other customers approached him to tell him he needed to wait in line and check-in first. (NOT the definition of first-come, first-serve). It was made into this big to-do, even though it was not something that needed to be turned into a scene. Small cocktail section on the menu, was happy to find out we could atleast add alcohol to the mocktails. For dinner we tried the Italian sausage and broccoli rabe pizza, and the rigatoni pomodoro. Pizza was tasty, crust had a nice crunch to it, and there was a fair amount of sausage on it. The rigatoni was not anything special, tasted like pasta out of the box. The restaurant is EXTREMELY overpriced for what it is. $27 for a brussel sprout salad? $28 for a meatball appetizer? Just no. Underwhelming taste, overpriced menu, rude staff and customers= would not return.

    I'm updating my review of Oceano, mostly to add pictures of our latest meal and to say once again that it was excellent; it is one of our favorite restaurants in south Florida. This time we went to the Lake Worth Beach Street Painting Festival which was so much fun and interesting. Afterwards, we arrived early at Oceano Kitchen for our 730 resy. We started at the bar to await our seats. The honey colored bar counter, which I think the bar tender said was quartz, is so striking. My girlfriend loved the Meyer lemon sour with merengue - so much that she ordered a second. I had two good glasses of wine (and the bar tender let me sample a few, which I always appreciate). For dinner, we tried the local fish ceviche for which I ordered bread to soak up the juice. The blue crab toast was excellent as was the baby beet and strawberry salad. For mains, we enjoyed the rigatoni pomodoro which had a red sauce and with delicious melty parm. I loved the tandoori style lamb chops - they were SO good! For dessert, you have to try the freshly baked salted caramel chocolate chip cookie. We also enjoyed the lemon blueberry tart.

    Oceano Kitchen is just so great. I guess you can't stop progress, but I miss the laid back nature of the old place... now so busy. Of course, that wasn't sustainable, but it was nice to have experienced those days... to know what's behind his cooking... and you can still see those days in Jeremy's dishes. Still the same great chef. A last minute trip here on this sold-out Saturday, so sat at the bar... actually, I like sitting there. I needed to try their new GREEN APPLE MARGARITA: w/apple infused tequila, spiced pear, cider caramel, lime. Never had anything like this... really great! For food, started with CRISPY BRUSSEL SPROUTS w/spicy tumeric sauce, ginger, kafir lime, peanut, basil, mint. Was good, but too much sauce overpowered what it could have been. The WOOD FIRED MUSHROOM PIZZA w sottocenere al tartufo, mozz, parm, lemon... perfectly cooked. Very good. Remember, one should NEVER miss dessert here. Jeremy's better half, Cindy, is a culinary star in her own right. Tonight, the COCONUT CREAM PIE w/graham cracker crumb, and Pandan Ice Cream was as suspected, FANTASTIC! But when I saw the COOKIES & CONFECTIONS PLATE on the menu... an opportunity to try so many different treats, and knowing that Cindy makes the best cookies on the planet, I had to have an order packed up to take with me... OMG! VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

    Nick was a lovely server. Food was delicious. Cocktails yummy. Favorite dish was the fried rice- I know that sounds basic but it really was an elevated yummy version. 6 plates were too much for 4 of us. Looking forward to the leftovers tho'!

    We haven't been back since their first Location on Lantana. We were pleasantly surprised to see this new restaurant location - The inside is stunning. (We sat at the kitchen counter) The food was seriously the best food we've ever had, the flavors were unbelievable. Highly recommend for date night or special occasion or if you just want really good food!

    Shaved halva on top of the sesame crisp and homemade frozen yogurt
    Steph S.

    Ray provided excellent, above-board service for an above-board meal. We sat in the backyard, which on a hot summer night was a little challenging for us, but we muddled through because each and every bite of food made us forget just how hot we were. Two pizza's with perfectly crisp crusts that were tender but not puffy held up tip to tail for both their "regular" pie and their unbelievable, oh my God French Onion style variety. In the past, I've eaten French Onion soup, French Onion chicken, French Onion stuffed dumplings but never pizza. It's a no-brainer thumbs up. We then shared a grilled shrimp dish with corn and arborio (?) rice with a hint of spicy oil. Sensational. The shrimp popped while the rice and corn melted in your mouth. Rigatoni with a tomato and melted cheese preparation was basic but elegant and elevated in its simplicity. Their homemade pasta was al dente just the way I like it. Our starter was the star of the show for me. A charred wedge of cabbage rendered buttery and sweet. It sat atop a puddle of whipped feta and citrus that did not over power the star of the show; deftly sprinkled with middle eastern/Indian spices. It was a symphony. Desserts did not disappoint. A warm chocolate chip cookie that was crisp and soft all in one bite, a coffee ice cream that was as smooth as can be. Our other guests were all in on "The Frozen" which was a homemade frozen yogurt similar to Pinkberry (slightly sour in a good way) sitting on top of bits of orange (not really necessary) with a killer sesame wafer and shaved halva. I loved how the "shaved" felt when I ate it. Clever touch. Walking through the restaurant after our meal, we were blasted with the cool air we longed for. The inside room has a large, lively bar and is quite loud. So what? Everyone here is happy. We had 2 glasses of wine and 2 mocktails. There is free valet. Full price $276 included tip and tax.

    Strawberry rubarb waloo crudo
    Matt R.

    Sizeable upscale spot in Lake worth putting out exceptional food and a good pace. While they say the items are good for a family style sharing, id say 2 people could more easily split 2 smaller plates and some of the mains. The chicken and swordfish would be better suited for 1 person, while the pasta and pizza are sizeable portions for 2x people. Fresh and in season items are always a go-to, and the peach tomato feta salad was perfect. Strawberry rhubarb waloo crudo was a winner as well. I've had pizza almost any place offered, of every style, and these guys are churning out quality pies. If you have a good size group, say 6x people, definitely grab a pizza for the table with some other items.

    What an upbeat vibe.

    If you are looking for a true foodie experience, Oceano is the place. To include their popular pizzas (next visit). Warmly welcomed and promptly seated, the service was spot on, almost ninja like. Though you will get an idea of the selections, the menu changes weekly and will satisfy you with the choices. The presentations are a work of art. Good food with careful craftsmanship. Please save room for the unique desserts and pressed coffee.

    Amazing dinner on a Saturday night. Our server Raymond was great. The ceviche was absolutely fabulous and full of flavor. The sausage and broccoli rabe pizza was delicious! Nice thin crust with ricotta and mozzarella to round it out. Rigatoni pomodoro was just so so. Not enough flavor for our party. Fiancé loved the gnocci sardi although it seemed like it wasn't a traditional "gnocci" which he appreciated even more. The only downside was the lack of organization. This was the second time they "lost" our reservation. It turned out to our advantage as we were seated at a lovely table on the front patio. Thoroughly enjoyed the visit and would highly recommend.

    Orecchiette with Lobster..yum

    OCEANO 3.0 is a huge success! 1.0 was too small, 2.0 was ok and now ...WOW Had dinner here last week and we all had a wonderful time. The place is beautiful with several seating areas so even though its a big place, it still feels pretty intimate. The service was great, with prompt attentive wait staff. The menu had many choices all of which were very inventive and fun. I had the Orecchiette. The pasta was perfect and the dish was filled with lobster in a sauce that had just the right amount of heat. The duck was perfect! Crispy skin and moist perfectly cooked meat. A couple of folks had pizzas. The crust was crispy and held its shape and was great. No question, we will be back. Many more dishes to check out. PLsu we were all too stuffed to try any of the desserts.

    It's not often I give 5 stars. This restaurant delivered! From the friendly, knowledgeable waiter to the innovative dishes, to the ambience were all outstanding. For appetizers, we had the muscles (tapas style) and octopus. My husband ordered the zucchini pizza to try something different & it was just OK. However. My halibut & pea risotto with bits of bacon was delicious. The decor is a mid century modern, clean lines and inviting. Beautiful greenery, with additional outdoor seating in the back. I always check out the restrooms. I was pleasantly surprised this restaurant had 4 separate unisex bathrooms. No long lines for the ladies thank goodness. Clean and well maintained. We will be back with friends in a few weeks. Highly recommend.

    New location and newly renovated
    Steve K.

    At Oceano, every dish is special, every dish feels like their one signature dish with rich and unique flavors and presentation. The dishes are meant to be shared, which is a good thing because you want to try so many different options. You'll even want to throw pizza into the mix - we had the zucchini pizza and loved the touch of lemon. Indoors can be quite loud, so I'd recommend outdoor seating, specifically the patio behind the restaurant, which is peaceful and quiet. And--they now take credit cards!

    The front of the restaurant!

    Yes. They have an ATM

    Are there any vegan options available? My family is really excited to go and as the lone vegan, I am curious because everything looks so scrumptious.

    They have a new menu every night. It’s important to check it as sometimes they do.

    Will they be willing to tell me what is gluten free? Or am I better off somewhere else?

I usually ate here at least twice a month or more for six years. And brought guests constantly . The food was always well prepared and at a reasonable price. The owner was always very friendly. BUT I will never again go back to Sofra after my experience last night. Last night I went with a couple of people that I had raved about this restaurant to. The owner, who certainly must've recognized me from the countless times I've eaten there in five years, barely grunted at me and the vibes I got from him were not very welcoming. He seemed really angry about something and was taking it out on his customers. There was only one other table that had customers and this was a Friday night. I found that really odd because other restaurants surrounding Sofra had lots of people sitting outside eating at their restaurants I ordered a falafel plate and others at our table ordered the İskender and another entrée. I practically passed out when I got the bill because I guess I didn't check the prices when I was ordering. The falafel plate, which was basically a spoonful of salad, a spoonful of rice, a few hard burned falafel, soup and a dribbling of tahini was $33. This is obscene. When this restaurant first opened they were charging for the same plate $15 and then they went to $25 after a few years which I thought was pretty high for the food we were getting but $33 is just plain greedy. I won't even do a review on the other two entrées because my party could barely eat them. I now see why there was nobody, literally nobody in this restaurant on a Friday night. And the owner, what happened to him? he used to be such a friendly guy and now he is just an angry man. The waitress never went back to check on us and refill our water after taking our order. Despite only two tables with customers in this restaurant. I read some of the reviews where owner says he hates the fucking country so why doesn't he just leave? There's plenty of really good Mediterranean restaurants that are not going to charge this kind of money for Mediterranean food. Even if the felafel was the best falafel I've ever eaten in my entire life - $33 is crazy. And it was not very good felafel - in fact all the food is mediocre. Where it once was amazing. So my suggestion to the owner is to lower his prices, improve the quality of his food and improve his attitude

I was really looking forward to that detail. When it came out, there were no anchovies on it. I had to ask our waitress, and when she brought them out, it was about one and a half small pieces. That felt like a miss, especially since it was highlighted on the menu. Food: 3.5/5 The service, however, was excellent. Our waitress and the staff were attentive, helpful, and proactive -- refilling our water, clearing plates, and checking in at the right times without being intrusive. Service: 5/5 The decor was just okay -- there's not much of a vibe or ambiance. Atmosphere: 3/5 One thing worth mentioning: the restroom was clean, stocked, and well maintained, which is always a plus. Overall, I'm willing to give this restaurant another try because I think with a few tweaks, they could really elevate the experience.

We came here for dinner last night and we were seated with a direct ocean view. This is one of the few places that is literally on the beach that you can have dinner. It was around 7 PM so there was shade and cool evening ocean breezes We ordered the whole snapper which was a whopping 2 1/2 pounds and the grouper. The snapper was obviously meant for two people because of the amount of rice and vegetables they included with the snapper. It was excellent. The grouper came in some type of coconut sauce, which was amazing. We were dipping our snapper in the sauce for the grouper. If I was to make any type of recommendation, I would recommend adding a side of this sauce to the snapper and that would just make it a perfect dish I had a watermelon Mojito. The drinks here are ridiculously expensive at $17 a cocktail. And it's not like they come in a huge glass. They come in a regular wine glass. They do say that all the ingredients are natural and nothing is artificial, so maybe it's worth it to pay that much to not have a bunch of junk in your drinks. The service was slow. Although friendly. When we arrived, there was not that many people eating so I was surprised when after 30 minutes we still had not gotten the cocktails. Our waiter said it was because there was only one bartender and he was 15 minutes behind on his orders. I find this pretty amazing that a restaurant like Benny's cannot hire more than one bartender so that the people who come and pay what is not really a moderate amount but pretty expensive for their entrées, but still have to wait 20 minutes to get their drinks. It was only for this that I took off a star. When I order a cocktail, I like it brought out within five minutes and not to drink during my dinner. Dinner was also very slow and we got our entrées about 45 minutes after our order. But all in all, it was an amazing experience and we will be back.
