This is by far one of my favorite places for lunch and dinner. I have been ordering from Oceanic for many years, and always fantastic and consistent in the way the dishes are prepared. If you are in the San Mateo area, do yourself a lovely favor and order from Oceanic's extensive and delicious menu. By the way, the prices are great as well!

Ordered sesame chicken but very dry and hard to chew. Looked like it has been fried days before and heated up again when it was ordered. Braised tofu was the same. Very dry and definitely not freshly cooked. Very disappointed and won't order again.

Food used to be so much better here! Ordered garlic noodles, garlicky but they used to be stir fried a little and had better flavored. Now they're just pale and not as robust in flavor. And the chicken. What a disappointment! Ok flavor, but I was afraid to eat more than a tiny bite! Didn't look like chicken pieces but spare parts. I was convinced on opening the container that it was octopus. Not good. Will have to take this place out of my restaurant rotation.

We ordered a variety of dishes (over $100) and everything was either awful (sweet & sour pork) or just mediocre (fried rice, moo sho pork & chicken chow mein). The only dish we enjoyed was the vegetable egg foo yung. Honestly, the pork in the sweet & sour was so hard and tough! Our dinner was for 3 and we all agreed with above.

Food: meats were just bits of fried material and oil. Not substantial meat at all. The flavors were bland and almost not there. Heavily fried. Not fresh. Service was quick, but I regret spending $100. Just thought I would try something new.

We loved everything we ordered. The chicken chow mein was among the best we've ever had. Will definitely order again!

I order from here very often and have always had the greatest experience. Highly recommend West Lake Minced Soup (can't rave enough about it), Lotus root and shrimp, beef and broccoli, Buddha's delight, General Tsao Chicken. Food always tastes great, plus I order as soon as they open so it's especially fresh. The customer service is superior and the delivery service is cheap (3.99 since I'm too far for the free). Great price for the quality and amount of food!

Food is at worst ,they do not cook the food like it use to ,we gave them them 3 chances ,abd every time we regret
We love duck chow fun and various seafood dishes. Spicy eggplant is also a favorite. We also like the Logan drink.

Came here to pick up a lunch plate. $15.39. Wasted. I ordered the General Tso's chicken with chowmein. The chicken didn't even taste like chicken. It tasted like damn tripe. If you know you know. The portions are super super small. The "on the house egg rolls" were not good whatsoever, super chewy and tasteless. Although I will say that the guy working there was super nice and respectful. But I'm there for food not company. I'm good off this place time to try others !

This used to be wonderful but two of the take-out dishes were practically inedible. The Salt & Pepper Squid Specialty was flavorful but was tough and rubbery. The Walnut Prawns Specialty were so hard that had to use a knife to cut through the crust. Oceanic has always been on the pricier side but the quality was always worth it. After spending over $60 on such a disappointing meal, I won't be ordering from them again.

Mongolian Beef was delicious. Wontong soup was also good. Friendly staff. But restaurant is closed for dine in.
