“We found this restaurant via Google search. We showed up without a reservation(sorry). We were welcomed and offered two seats at the bar. What a fantastic experience. Miranda was our server and there was nothing she could have done to make our dining experience more special. We spoke with the owners, the chef, and several servers, and everyone there made sure our dining experience was perfect. The drinks, the wine, the apps, the food(tuna nachos, crab fritters and shrimp Seoul bowls), everything was spectacular. We are already planning our next visit!“

“Our group of three ate here on a spring vacation. We liked it very much, we ate here twice! The place was small, yet not crowded. No wait for a table! One time there I had bacon and eggs , yummy! Another time there I had the BLT . Delicious! My parents and I enjoyed watching the people walking around the streets outside of our booth window and the restaurant noise level was not too loud. This made it easy for us to talk about our trip plans. The best part was our service was spot on… staff did awesome job on taking orders and getting them not only correct yet also out quick . Thank you KP House for giving us a nice trip memory!“

Service was fast prices reasonable and the atmosphere is definitely LOCAL.

“My boys and I had dinner here on Saturday after the music festival. There was a short 15-minute wait to get a table, but it was well worth the wait. Our server was wonderful, and on top of everything. We never had to ask for anything, and refills were on the table before we were out. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was fun and welcoming, and the raspberry margaritas are the best I've ever had. Definitely going back on my next trip! Best meal we had on the Island this weekend!“

“Visited Ocean Grill & Tiki Bar and it ended up being one of my favorite spots on the trip. The location alone makes it worth going, right by the water with a really relaxed beach vibe. It’s the kind of place where you can sit outside, feel the breeze, and just take your time enjoying the food without feeling rushed.

The atmosphere is very laid back and tropical, with the tiki bar style setup and outdoor seating that gives you a great view while you eat. It feels more like a vacation spot than a regular restaurant. We went around sunset and the view made the whole experience even better.

Food was really good, especially the seafood. Everything tasted fresh and cooked right, not greasy or overdone. The grilled fish and shrimp were some of the best things we ordered, and the portions were good size. You can tell they focus on simple food done right. Drinks were also solid, the frozen drinks and cocktails fit the tiki bar vibe perfectly.

Service was friendly and easygoing. Even though the place was busy, the staff kept up with everything and made sure we had what we needed. Nobody rushed us, which I liked, it felt like a place where you’re supposed to relax and enjoy being there.

Prices were about what you’d expect for a waterfront restaurant, a little higher than normal but worth it for the view, atmosphere, and quality of the food.

Overall, Ocean Grill & Tiki Bar is a great spot if you want good seafood, cold drinks, and a nice view all in one place. Definitely somewhere I would go back to if I’m in the area again.“
