    Husband and I come here often. The last visit wasn't so great. Only because i have been dieting (glp) so I can't eat much. I did choose to do all you can eat sushi and was ok with paying the price even though I knew I wouldn't eat that much. I ordered one roll, my favorite here. The royal flush. It came out without the macadamia nuts. Ok, whatever right and I ordered one order of nigiri. I had 4-5 pieces of the roll left and got charged all you can eat AND for the long roll. Wth!! So way overcharged and wasn't even told or spoke to that she was going to do it. Fast forward to today. I ordered just a roll. Learned my lesson. Ordered the Bora Bora. Wrapped in cucumber and no rice. Just like eating sashimi with side of cucumber. This may be my new favorite now. There should be a menu for those who don't eat much, like a kiddie menu

    Hannah is the best. We have come to enjoy her service. She is a great server. Very attentive to our needs. We love the restaurant and the beautiful pictures of places all over the world.

    Great vibe, not loud but a good conversation space. The service was always great (went 3 times). You get a lot of bang for your buck when it comes to sushi. All you can eat is 37 until 3 the. 47 after 3. Each roll Is 15-17 do if you have an appetite this is your spot. The rolls were super good but the start of the show is that loaf of sourdough. Give me three of those. I recommend this place.

    Dinner!

    First time trying this dish and it was absolutely worth it The couscous was perfectly creamy, the vegetables were fresh and beautifully buttered, and the swordfish, salmon, and shrimp originally came out grilled. The first attempt was just a little on the dry side, but what impressed me most was how quickly and professionally they fixed it. The second version came out SPECTACULAR The fish was soft, juicy, and full of flavor almost poached style with a light lemon cream and white wine sauce that tied everything together perfectly They also serve incredible in-house made sourdough bread with house-made butter, and honestly... their sourdough and clam chowder rival some of the best I've had in San Francisco. Service was perfect from beginning to end, and the beautiful ambiance with Hawaiian seascapes playing across the large TV screens made the whole experience feel relaxing and upscale at the same time. One of those meals that feels elegant while still being total comfort food 10/10 for making it right and delivering such a great dining experience.

    Yes I went to a seafood restaurant and ordered a steak!!

    Big shout out to Jackie T. Great service- thank you. This is a beautiful restaurant and, unlike most restaurants in casinos , close to the door and parking lot so you don't have to wander around for half an hour to find it. I LOVE that. I'm allergic to shellfish but they have lots of fish choices too. For some reason I got a new York steak and am so happy- steak makes great leftovers. Good sautéed veggies that were not mushy - yay. I'll definitely be back.

    Went to have dinner with a few friends and decided on Oceano. Got seated pretty quickly and it was a Friday evening so that was surprising. It was busy and loud but can still have a conversation with people around. I had the all you can eat sushi. Now it is a little more pricey than other sushi restaurants around. Their sushi menu is vast so that's a plus. Not all sushi is all you can eat, some of you will have to pay extra for. The menu does specify which ones are. Service was good and our waitress was always checking in on us. For desert I got some gelato and they do give quite a bit...I was happy about that. I would come here again

    Due to construction in their parking lot and limited parking, we decided to dine here instead of leaving and risk not having somewhere to park upon our return. It was a Friday evening and everywhere was busy. We came by a little after 8pm and was quoted a 30-40 min wait time and I opted to be on their waitlist. Lucky for us, our wait was more like 15-20 minutes. The interior is bright & modern with 2 large screens on opposite sides that display travel destinations and locations. Seating was either in booths, at the bar, or tables with chairs. The noise level in here gets pretty loud due to the acoustics. We were seated and given menus on tablets. Water was given pretty quickly but the bread took a tad longer. Our waitress was friendly, explained the menu to us, and answered any questions we had (despite her being busy). My only critique re their AYCE is that it has one price for adults only. They don't have a separate price for children. She also kindly told me that their portions were big, so that was very helpful. I have not dined here in a number of years and their portions prior used to be smaller. Items ordered: 2x cup of clam chowder- Good flavor and plenty of clams Fish and Chips- Delicious, perfectly seasoned and battered and not dry! One of the best fish and chips I have had in a long time and it was a very pleasant surprise. Shrimp scampi- Delicious generous portion of pasta and shrimp. Chef's Mixed Grill- Loved the presentation and flavors of veggies and protein. The couscous had way too much parmesan and was literally stuck together. Def did not enjoy that texture or taste of the couscous. California Roll- I love that this roll has real crab and tastes so much better than the Ca rolls made with imitation crab. Chocolate ice cream- Always a fun treat for kiddo Thanks for the lovely dinner and atmosphere.

    A fancy sangria $19 good but wasn't overly impressed.

    What a stunning ocean theme seafood-sushi restaurant! We went for the AYCE sushi lunch $37. We definitely got our sushi fix and the options were nice mix of appetizers, nigiri and rolls. Our favs were the pork pot stickers, baked mussel, Donald Duck short roll, but everything tasted fresh and delicious. There was just one roll that was overly spicy called the James. Service was good but did take quite a while between ordering items. Would recommend.

    Seafood Combo and Cocktail Sampler (forgot official names)

    I will start off by saying that we came to this restaurant two nights out of our three night stay! The service impeccable, and the food did not disappoint. We did not try the all you can eat option but will be back next time to try. Shoutout to management because we had consistently great service from some cool young people. Ambiance is awesome as well. Highly recommend. Shoutout to Reed!

    Sampler platter

    Love fish and chips, but their platter with the fried oyster and shrimp sets it off. Pair it with a good beverage and have a seat watching the screen of the world's images or having a good dinner companion makes this an excellent experience. Expensive Busy Sometimes order mishaps occur, but all in all an enjoyable dining experience. I have seen the Peppermills decor changes over 20+ years. The Océano is one of the best of their restaurants.

    Best AYCE sushi in town! Nice and clean atmosphere. Inside of the Peppermill Casino. Waitress service was great! The food is amazing! Would definitely recommend!

    Boring seweed salad
    Loren R.

    The service here is great albeit slow. There are lots of servers and lots of hungry people. I prefer smaller traditional Japanese ambiance establishments. Yet. They do a great job. Great greet. Friendly staff. I appreciate a quick bow and smile from the sushi chef. It's the little things. I ordered a traditional cold served unfiltered saki. I requested it heated hot. Often this option isn't available They were happy to oblige, and i got a piping hot sake, which warmed my cold hands from a chili walk outside in the snow Nothing beats cuddling with your hands a hot carafe of hot sake to warm your bones I thought the seaweed salad was a bit boring. It was like everywhere everywhere else, dull. They could do better. On the other hand, I ordered the king salmon Expectations were exceeded in that the salmon was cooked perfectly quite juicy, and it was a sizable slab of flesh I appreciated the fact that the chef didn't ruin the fish with sauces and syrup or flavoring is he just left the fish virgin for me to enjoy It's delicate flavor Six stars for that I'd come back here over and over just for their seafood if it's cooked this way Why only four stars then? I've had their sushi and rolls and I found them quite uninventive and the ambience is very American rather than traditional Japanese But I will come here again and again for their fish entrées. I'll probably try the halibut next.

    Absolutely disgusting they got everything wrong. Don't lie into the hype never would go back there not as a local, which I am never ever.
    Denise B.

    You don't wanna know they wouldn't let me leave a true review disgusting sick, seafood, overpriced, hot seafood, deliver or sushi. Absolutely disgusting would never go back there again ever

From the parking lot, it has the look and feel of a small seafood shack you'd expect to find along the Oregon coast. Step inside, though, and you're greeted by a bright, sparkling-clean dining room that's welcoming, comfortable, and thoughtfully laid out with plenty of seating. This is a true family-run business. Jon, the owner, served my meal while his daughter handled the front counter. Jon shared stories about the family's continued involvement in their fishing operation, where each fish is still individually caught by hand rather than with large commercial nets. Whether you're interested in that or not, you can tell he brings a captain's mindset to the restaurant--everything is shipshape, spotless, and exactly where it should be. I was initially on the fence about trying Smee's for fish and chips. Then I discovered their main competitor was only about a dollar less per plate. At that point, it became an easy decision. Why settle for a cook-alike when you can get fresh-caught cod from a place that specializes in seafood? I ordered the #2 fish and chips. It came with two generous pieces of cod coated in a light, crispy batter with the perfect crunch. The fries were hot and delicious, and the coleslaw was exactly how I like it--not swimming in dressing, just fresh, crisp, and well balanced. The homemade tartar sauce was the perfect finishing touch and complemented the fish beautifully. For my money, Smee's is an easy choice. I'll definitely be back. There's no reason to gamble on a chain or imitation seafood restaurant when, for about the same price, you can enjoy fresh fish, great service, and a family-owned business that clearly takes pride in what they do. Smee's has earned a permanent spot as my go-to place for fish and chips.

I didn't even know this place existed since I had last been back to town. It was an accident to find it, we were going for a trusted and loved sandwich at Full Belly Deli next door and were happy to see it there. We came in during the week for trappy hour, where we had the most delicious oysters, shrimp, and chowder. Plus some really great beer and wine. We liked it so much, and wanted to try more of the oyster types they had so we went back on Friday afternoon to learn they don't have the oyster deal on busy days. Which totally makes sense, it's an awesome deal-- half a dozen for $15. So on our second trip we tried the ceviche, crab cake slider, and hot butter lobster roll. All delicious and fresh as well. I have nothing but good things to say about the food and staff. The only thing to be aware of is the dining area in the shop is pretty small, but if too full the tables outside of FBD could be used. Next time I'm in town I'll be back.

First of the seafood was amazingly fresh considered where we are. We ordered the following (HH) Half Dozen Oysters- Absolutely fresh and delicious 5/5 (HH) Trappy Hour Hawaiian Poke Bowl- Surprisingly this was delicious. Tuna was well marinated and seasoned.5/4 (HH) Crab Cake Sliders- This was great, all crab meat in the crab cake.5/4 Connecticut Lobster Roll- The lobster was fresh and sweet. The portion size of the lobster roll was perfect for the price. 5/5 Service was great and friendly. They have plenty of parking. Highly recommend giving them a try if you're in Truckee CA.
