We had a wonderful experience at Ocean following the Van Gogh exhibit. We arrived early to our reservation, and were promptly seated 10 minutes after arrival. Superb service. Our needs were met with joyful pleasure and was overall a fabulous service experience. The food was outstanding. We started off with a beet salad and oysters, that were more delicious than we could have hoped. Our entrées were next. The trout and shrimp were delectable, savory, and masterfully

I would love to give them 5 stars but my husband ordered the Filet Minon medium well and it was definitely well done. The sushi I ordered was aaamazing! And the ocean martini is one of the best drinks I have ever had! So if you are going to a seafood restaurant, order the seafood ???? Also the Greek salad comes with fried feta on top and oh. My. God. Perfection!

whoa. Yellowtail tasted way too "fishy" and the so-called pastrami shortribs were greasy pastrami. Both were $ 30. Robbery. We gave our feedback to the bartender (we were sitting at the bar) and he made no effort to "get it right". I will not be back. The dining room was nice ... parking was awful in the neighborhood.

What a great meal in Birmingham. This was a date night for us and finally some normalcy and refinement. It felt great to dress up, have great service, and amazing tasting food. The seafood tower, seafood pot (Thai flavors), and salmon were all cooked perfectly. This was a great evening enjoying the food scene Book a table now

The drinks were good. Menu is limited. One person did not like the pork. The other thought the pastrami ribs were fat and of no value. The burger was good. Though very energetic, it's not really a place for $ 30 starters - much looser. Stick with the burger and a cocktail or beer.

Excellent selection of beers, reliably delicious food and great service. If you don't have a reservation, it's usually easy to secure a spot at the bar for a full dining service. A neighborhood favorite.

Entree servings are more like appetizers, maybe 4 ounces of meat. Service was good. Tables are too close, noisy dining. Definitely not worth the price, I won't go back.

I would really give this restaurant a 4 star review, but when a 5 star restaurant offers a 3 star experience, 3 stars it is! Ocean was crowded for a
