The airy waterfront restaurant includes several distinct dining areas such as a quartz-topped cold bar embedded with mother of pearl and sea glass. The focal point in Oceana Coastal Kitchen's main dining room is an impressive 800-gallon aquarium, while a sliding window fully opens to showcase unobstructed views of Mission Bay.

Oceana Coastal Kitchen offers an al fresco experience for guests, complete with sleek booths and tables with sweeping panoramic waterfront views. Led by Executive Chef Paul Arias, favorite menu items include the Oceana House Roll, the Harris Ranch Ribeye, and the Striped Seabass.

    Overall, a good experience -- a lovely patio facing Mission Bay and great service. However, they were out of two of their signature menu items, the scallops and the sea bass. This was part of our reason for selecting the restaurant which specializes in seafood and was disappointing.
    Oceana Coastal KitchenResponded on 25 February 2025
    Dear Jennifer, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad you enjoyed the patio and service, but we sincerely apologize for the disappointment of missing out on your desired dishes.

    Referred to restaurant because The Grill at the Lodge at Torrey Pine had golf tournament. I will let them know not to do that again!! 3 orders: Large thick toasted bread. Meager slice of dry chicken; not so fresh lettuce—my companions lettuce had black spots; single slice of tomato. Nice French fries but we did not eat them. 1 lettuce with chicken; guest thought it was just ok. We were there to enjoy being together; it wasn’t about the food which was disappointing, especially given the owner’s pedigree. Perhaps an off day

    Dear David, Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the food didn't meet your expectations, and we appreciate you sharing the details so we can make improvements. We hope to have the opportunity to provide a better experience on your next visit.

    We had the snapper and the scallops, amazing! The presentation was wonderful, the recommended win was very good and the service outstanding. We are not from the area and googled where to eat. A 20minute Uber ride from our hotel and so worth while! Highly recommend it for anyone seeking good seafood in a wonderful atmosphere.

    Dined solo while on a work trip to the Catamaran Resort and absolutely loved the food here! They also had live music on Wednesday that was so nice to enjoy overlooking Mission Bay.
