About Oceanside Grill
Oceanside Grill Reviews
Food and service were excellent! Mia our waitress was absolutely wonderful!!
Atmosphere was nothing short of relaxing and refreshing! Food was so good, you’d think you were in Florida eating it straight from the ocean! The service, every employee there was professional and friendly! Had an amazing experience 10/10!
We arrived early and were seated immediately. Warm, casual, very friendly atmosphere. Danielle was our server - exactly the right balance of friendly and attention to the tables she was taken care of. Food arrived in a timely manner - all done perfectly. All excellent. The New England Clam Chowder was outstanding. Javier, the manager, stopped by the table to make sure all was good. We are planning our next visit.

Oceanside Grill offers a mix of experiences. The food is highly praised, with standout dishes like the loaded cheesy potato soup and calamari. Many customers enjoyed the fish choices, such as fish with lemon butter sauce and fresh broccoli, as well as the daily special of filet and lobster Mac and cheese, which received high praise. Appetizers, including calamari, are considered a great start to the meal, and sides like cheesy scalloped potatoes are described as out of this world. Service is friendly and attentive, with many reviews highlighting the wonderful waitress and chef's personal touch, like coming out to talk to guests. The restaurant often makes special moments, such as giving a birthday card signed by staff during dessert, adding a nice touch to celebrations. The atmosphere, however, has been criticized for being too dark and lacking decor, which can detract from the overall ambiance. Despite this, many diners leave with a positive impression and plan to return, praising the quality of the food and service.
