Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Oceana delights with "great food, great service," and a beautiful ambiance, making it a top choice for dining in NYC. The seafood offerings, especially the Dover Sole and Lobster Scampi, are "outstanding." Attentive staff, like sommelier Matthew, enhance the experience with "expansive knowledge." Perfect for pre-theater dining.

    Best fish and oysters I’ve had in a long time. Perfect location for both theatre shows and holiday festivities. It is a bit loud in the space due to its size but not a deal breaker. Been a few times and I’ll be back. Their theatre menu is fantastic and a great deal.

    One of our best dining experiences in NYC - the food was incredible and the service very attentive. We started our meal with the yellowtail which was delicious and the burrata which was fantastic! The star of the meal had to be the Dover sole which was buttery, fresh and delicious! The only down side was the desserts - the selection wasn’t ideal but we tried the vanilla cheesecake and the cookies both of which were okay but not our favorite. Overall a great meal in a comfortable but stylish setting!

    Back room wonderful! Front room would have been too noisy and I would have left. Service did not get my order right.

    We were blown away by the service and ambiance of Oceana. We are from the Gulf Coast and must say this was the best seafood dinner we have had yet!

    I am not saying this lightly. Unquestionably the best meal my husband and I ever had. We had four courses chosen off the regular menu accompanied by wine pairings explained by the sommelier, Matt, who loved his job. It was not unlike an interesting history lesson. Great food! I agree with my husband who said that they really know how to season. I have to add they know how to add an unexpected ingredient that made what would have been a mundane mushroom risotto pop. It was just the right, small amount of pickled mushrooms sprinkled on top. While the crabcake was huge, lump and traditionally prepared. Where it wasn’t required they didn’t over season or do anything just to do something new. Nothing seemed like an afterthought. Fine dining at its best. We are both looking forward to going back.

    Lobster pasta was excellent. Filet mignon was disappointing. Service was very attentive.

    My mother and I dined at Oceana recently on a Tuesday evening after the Radio City Christmas show. We had a mixed experience. The restaurant was lovely, though the ambient noise level was pretty high. The service was absolutely wonderful. But the food was a mixed bag. My halibut was good, though the sauce was not notably flavorful. My mother enjoyed the crab cake. Her side salad, which claimed to come pre-dressed seemed lacking any dressing. And we sent two desserts back to the kitchen. That’s right folks, we are dessert lovers, and are not snobs on this front, but after each, my 79 year old mom put down her fork and refused to take another bite. It’s hard to make a bad cheesecake, but this one had no flavor whatsoever, no sweetness at all. Similarly, the pistachio semifreddo looked beautiful, but lacked any sweetness, leading my mom to remark, “I feel like I’m eating a mouthful of peanut butter.” We wondered if the kitchen had run out of sugar and had simply made the desserts without any. Given the price point, we were surprised anything, never mind a dessert, could be so off that we would send it back.
