    Love their menu, simple yet variety. Don't leave here without trying their roasted squabs. They sure know how to make this dish well. The Lobster Vermicelli was very memorable too. Only had a bad experience with the Beef and Turnip Stew, it was hard to consume from being overly peppered. I told them it was unpalatable, they said "it comes like that".

    fillet steak with honey is thin and dry. not juicy. It's sticky and hard to chew. not recommend.

    This restaurant opened up a few weeks ago, so my housemates and I came here to try out their foods. Oh by the way, finding parking in this area was a nightmare, but if you are lucky you'll find one... eventually. The ambiance was really bright and clean. I really like their marble-like fixture ceiling they have, wished my dining room at home had that type of ceiling. The restaurant was not too big or not too small. The night we were there, there was a small banquet at one side of the restaurant. Maybe it was due to the not so big atmosphere, the sounds of talking, laughter, cling and clatter of chopsticks and plates made this place extremely noisy throughout my entire meal. It was hard for me to hear myself think. Fortunately, my group didn't need to text each other during our meal. We had ordered one of their specialty soups that came in this cute little cookware pot. The soup was pretty good, but I'm not sure what was in there. We've got a dish of veggies, which was pretty yummy. We also got a rack of lamb chops, which was really good! It was very tender and the meat falls right off the bones. We've also gotten walnut shrimp, one of my favorite Chinese dishes of all time. This dish was good, but mayo overload that it was insane! Each shrimp was crispy and the walnuts aren't as honey glazed as most restaurants makes them. So far the foods I've tried that night were pretty good and since it's kind of close by I would come back to try other dishes. They also have dim sum available in the morning hours and I believe because of their grand opening any size dim sum dish is $2 each.

    Been here many times on many occasions. I suggest reserving a table on holidays as this place gets packed pretty quickly. First few times were great. Nothing wrong with the food; food was flavorful and fresh. It's just that I ate here way too many times and ordered the same dishes each time I'm here. They also serve sweets and oranges post dinner. Oranges were really sweet (big plus). For eight dishes including tips, the bill came out $273 for a party of six. Very reasonable priced. However, parking can get very inconvenient. And if you take the train, you will have to walk several blocks. Beware of food coma!! One more thing, the fish soup which I forgot to mention was not too bad. I am not the fish soup person although I like to eat fish, but it did not taste raw. In fact, pretty good. I would still prefer other soups we would normally get. Not sure what they were called. Then the other dish I again forgot to mention was the whole fried chicken. It was a huge portion and the texture was really juicy and sweet. That's it. I'm officially done reviewing!!

    This is certainly a good option to go to especially if you can't get a table at the bigger Chinese restaurants. Ocean Chinese Restaurant is a small restaurant, but they serve up the same good quality dishes as you get at the bigger Chinese restaurants. These are the usual dishes that my family enjoys getting are 1. The Golden Shrimp with walnuts in a fruity mayo sauce. The shrimp are cooked perfectly. Crispy, sweet, and absolutely delicious. 2. A whole chicken. You get a crispy or just steamed. The chicken are very moist. A lot of flavor and taste. 3. Crispy Pork Chops with Peking sauce. One of my personal favorites. Crispy with a lovely sweet and sour taste to it. I like to take the sauce and just drizzle it over my bowl of rice. My family tries other dishes when we come here. I must say the food are tasty here. You certainly will not go wrong here. The bill will be a lot cheaper than the ones at the bigger Chinese Restaurants. You save money and you get a delicious meal.

    This restaurant is a real gem, I've been missing a lot of the quality Chinese food since the pandemic began and it was pretty good.

    The food was mediocre. I will not dine here again. Family decided that they wanted to try out a different restaurant for dinner instead of going to one of the larger restaurants in the area. We should have just stuck with our usual dinner spot. Ocean restaurant has the strangest table arrangement. They tried to fit too many large circular tables in such a small space. We were sitting in the second table, next to the entrance(6-8ppl table). Adjacent to us was a 10-16ppl table. With everyone from that table, and ours sitting down, there was barely enough room for anyone to pass through to the inside of the restaurant. Many times my boyfriend had to shift his seat to let the waiter pass, and to get up for the many older patrons to exit. The dishes were expensive and tasted just okay. $50 for 2 sautéed lobsters is expensive as many places in sunset park and Chinatown will have it for less then $35. Many of our first choice dishes were unavailable. I understand if 1 or 2 were unavailable, but 4 dishes? The shrimp mayo walnut dish was okay. The walnuts were not as glazed as other restaurants and there was a thin layer of brown oil? on the dish. Crispy chicken was overcooked, too dry. The sauce on the sweet fried pork chops was very thin. Salty fish with diced chicken fried rice did not have enough flavor. There was barely any salty fish. This was such an easy dish to mess up. No fruit or sweet dessert soup, only egg drop gelatin dessert. And the waiter brought the egg drop gelatin dessert before we were even finished with the food! Just told us to take our time! In a typical Chinese dinner, the waiters will trade out your used plate for new clean ones, but that never happened here.

    Fried pork chops to die for.

The food here genuinely surprised me because everything came out super fresh and hot. We ordered a BUNCH of dishes that I lost track of taking pictures, but a few really stood out. The steamed spare ribs were hot, tender, and flavorful; the taro pieces mixed in were great too. The chicken feet were cut in half for convenience and the taste and texture were spot on. The hargow surprised me with filling that was mostly shrimp which is sometimes too much to ask for sadly. My favorite might've been the honeycomb tripe (not the one in the stew). It came out steaming and had that ideal bounce without being chewy, I'm pretty sure I cleaned more than half of it. Overall, the freshness and heat of every dish made a huge difference. The restaurant had a great vibe and service was good although they accidentally charged us an extra order of chicken feet (which was resolved when we pointed it out).

However, the real negative here is the operations. It is a chaotic mess for the volume they are trying to do. It's not about adding more manpower, it's about streamlining. Tables are sitting empty while people are on the waitlist (not due to reservations), orders are going to the wrong tables, to-go orders are in disarray and have to be re-verified on multiple orders, and it takes a long time to get some water. The Yelp waitlist is useless here - wait was supposed to be 5-10 minutes and it turned into almost 40. All this could have been avoided with more better planning, organization, and training. Kitchen staff doing their job well, front of house needs work.

Tell him how many in your party and he'll give you a piece of paper with a number on it, he'll blow through those announcements quickly, so listen up. - The numbers for a table aren't always sequential, he's playing a game of Tetris with tables. - If you've got less than a full table, be prepared to share a table, but it's no big deal. - Steamed Pork Bun is better than Baked Pork Bun (but not by much), which is better than the Crispy Fried Pork Dumpling (mochi!). Baked Pork Pastry was a little meh, it was extremely rich and ours was in that awkward in-between temperature. - Chive dumplings are pretty shrimp-forward, good, but shrimp-forward. - If there's something you want and it doesn't make its way to you, ask!
