Love Ocean Boulevard. It's an owner managed/operated restaurant and it shows. They have very high standards and the staff hustles. It shows everywhere. The food is excellent.

Haven't been in a. Long while. It was fabulous and much more intimate than I remember, a plus! Very nice. Walking in the hostess was pleasant and greeted us like she was glad we were there. Jeff was excellent as our server. I think my only complaint would be the lady, not server, who brought us our check back with card because she was not like the others. No smile When we left we said hey it was great, have a good night etc, and she just had a sour look on her face. Everyone else was great, friendly, and made you feel welcomed.Will definitely come back.

Great food, good company and all orchestrated by the master of ceremonies Donnie King and gang.
The food was much blander than one would expect from such a restaurant. The NY strips we bought tasted as if they had been frozen for months and had basically no seasoning or flavor whatsoever. The appetizers were also forgettable. We noted that the reservation was for a birthday and they never said a word about it. Generally speaking there are better places to go in the area for cheaper.

We love trying new places while on vacation. This place is a must!! The service was amazing, the meals were exquisite and beautifully presented, and the atmosphere was the most laid back island vibe we have experienced!! The staff works together like a well-oiled machine. They communicated beautifully, and even kitchen staff helped serve dished to tables. The kitchen can be viewed from the dining area, which is great! The kitchen is clean, staff is clean and professional, and the dining area was very clean. I will recommend this place to anyone visiting the Outer Banks!From one restaurant owner to another, you all are doing amazing!! I was so impressed from the moment we walked in.

Excellent food-perfectly seared scallop entree and flounder dinner special was very tasty. Fresh and crisp Ceasar salad. Decadent nut pastry with caramel ice cream. We sat at the Chef's table and enjoyed the kitchen theatre. Decent price point for portion size compared to other similar restaurants in the area. Only slight negative was no French red as listed on the website but powered thru with a Martini instead ?

Good food, drinks, and service. Ordered a chicken and pasta dish as well as a scallops and risotto dish.Went here for an anniversary. We were seated next to a little window in a room on the second floor. It was pitch black outside, so we couldn't see it, but we were told by the server that this window has an ocean view. Too bad it was too dark outside to enjoy it.

Have dined here many times & have never been disappointed. This occasion was for a family gathering / Birthday Party & it was absolutely perfect & superb as always! TY for making our return visit so memorable! ♥️
This was our first time visiting Ocean Blvd. We come to OBX every March to celebrate our Anniversary and I'm shocked we haven't come here yet! Such a wonderful experience- and I was so pleased with the vegan options for me. I always prepare to just have a salad or side but I had options and my meal was DELICIOUS. Our server was just lovely- I loved the whole evening. We will be back!

Service and atmosphere were great. Food was all prepared very well, but a bit under seasoned. Very understandable since you can always add but not take away just my personal opinion. Easy fix w salt and pepper. Overall a great experience. Dress casually I felt a bit underdressed compared to other customers, lol. Again my personal opinion.
