My boyfriend and I went on the afternoon of Christmas eve. We had reservations for 3:30pm. (Highly recommend! By 4:30pm the place started getting packed.) Everyone was extremely attentive. Every person working there had a task and they didn't miss a beat. Our waters were refilled immediately, our food boxed up within seconds of asking and the food! Let's talk about the food and drinks.We both got their special drink of the night, they had just come up with it so they didn't even have a name for it but it was on point! Not too sour not too sweet, just right.For appetizers we got the lobster bisque and calamari. The lobster bisque was creamy and velvety. I wanted another bowl!For dinner I got the caramelized scallops with mushroom risotto. It comes with bacon risotto but they allowed me to substitute without hesitation. I appreciated that! I try not to substitutefor the most part but bacon is somethingI try to stay away from. The scallops were hearty and cooked to perfection. The sauce on the risotto was outstanding.My boyfriend got the swordfish and he thought it was one of the best he's had. The flavors were on point.Now let's talk dessert... we were so full and packed half of our meal but we couldn't leave without trying one to go. We got the très leches. I'm Latina and have has my fair amount of très leches but THIS ONE blew my mind! I didn't even have time to take a pic because when I got home and saw that beauty I couldn't stop myself. Overall an incredible experience!
I am never one to leave reviews (whether good or bad) but I had a terrible experience at Ocean and I want to give others a heads up.About 2 weeks ago on a Friday night my fiance and I had dinner at ocean as we have many times before. Typically this is one of my favorite restaurants in the Lehigh Valley but this is the second time in a row the service has been awful. The two of us were there for over 2 hours because of how long it took the food to come out. After waiting probably 40+ mins for our dinner our server came and told us that they had accidentally sent our order to the wrong table and that it would be a little longer. I am very flexible and not hard to please so I said ok no problemOur food came out a few minutes later and my filet was probably one of the worst steaks I’ve ever had in my life. If I was not so anti confrontational I would have sent it back and should have but I want to give others a warning on Ocean.Because of the wait the manager gave us a free round of drinks and dessert which was a nice gesture and appreciated but we still ended up spending $150+ on a dinner we didn’t really enjoy and took forever.Ocean Management - if you are reading this I am hopeful you will turn things around because my experience turned me off from booking any reservations with you for the foreseeable future

Unbelievable service! Olivia is wonderful. The food is delectable. Nothing bad on this menu. Olivia is absolutely spectacular. Trust her with your experience. Attentive without being intrusive comes with absolutely amazing recommendations on the food. Food was spectacular can't nitpick one single thing truffle fries lobster sliders tuna tartar fresh oysters entrees were diver scallops and a seafood pesto gnocchi. Can't recommend this place enough if you get a chance sit in Olivia's section. She's amazing
Food was really good, I got the duck breast and it was cooked perfectly. I didn't fully finish my meal and I left 3 pieces of duck,some fries, and asparagus. This I asked to to promptly pack up for me as I found the meal very delicious yet I just couldn't finish it. It was to my surprise a couple hours later when i opted to eat the remainder of my food that I realized that there was a BUNCH of food missing in my “to-go” portion. I had one piece of duck instead of the 3 I left, significantly less fries than I left, and only 2 asparagus’ opposed to the many I left to eat later. Needless to say I was expecting a second meal out of my leftovers, and I got a snack… disappointing. Where did my food go? I am still hungry and I paid for the food I did not eat as well. Please do better, especially when your food is delicious.

I’ve eaten here before and it WAS spectacular. Tonight the salad was overdressed and the salmon was over cooked, the 2 items of my dinner. At this price point it’s unacceptable. Hit or miss. I hope they step up their game again. This was an expensive and disappointing dinner.

I had the pleasure of dining at Ocean restaurant in Easton, PA, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. We indulged in a variety of dishes including the tuna tartare, seabass, shrimp tacos, salmon, octopus, and more – and every single bite was simply exceptional.The food at Ocean surpassed all expectations. Each dish was expertly prepared with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavor. It's clear that the chefs here have a true passion for their craft.What truly made our visit memorable was the warm welcome we received from Cipriano, the owner. Their personal attention and genuine care for our dining experience were evident throughout the evening. The owner took the time to greet us personally and ensure that everything met our satisfaction.Not only did Ocean excel in their culinary offerings but their cocktail selection was also top-notch. The drinks were crafted with precision and creativity – they were truly to die for!Lastly, I cannot praise the service enough. From attentive waitstaff to prompt service throughout the meal, it was clear that customer satisfaction is a top priority at Ocean restaurant. They went above and beyond to make us feel valued as guests.Overall, I would rate my experience at Ocean restaurant as a perfect 10 out of 10. If you're looking for an exceptional dining experience with outstanding food quality, impeccable service, and delightful cocktails – look no further than Ocean.

Outstanding Experience - 4 of us, 2 couples, had a great time and we all loved our food. 530pm dinner reservations. Atmosphere is so elegant, staff had great energy and worked together to be sure we all were cared for. The owner was there and it's apparent he really cares. Food was excellent and large portions: our meals included 3 ceasar salads, entrees were sea bass (*accomadated GF exchange of their potatoes and asaparagus), swordfish, seafood gnocchi and duck. Drinks were top notch: margaritas, smokey old fashioned, which was delivered with such a cool presentation, and wine. Dessert was worth every calorie. The owner recommended the tres leches as one of their best and he was so right. They also had a gluten-free dessert which was chocolate decedent flour free worth every calorie, so good. The key lime dessert was fantastic. Every meal and dessert were plated so elegant as well. I feel like their presentation was outstanding, normally not something we experience lately. We all truly enjoyed the entire experience, more than just our meal. Our server, Maddie, was so friendly and how the entire staff helps each table which really provided an outstanding experience. Very impressive. We will be back. We all recommend Ocean in Easton.

The 4 of us, 2 couples, had such a great time thanks to the attentive and welcoming staff, atmosphere, food; just everything combined. Our waitress, Maddie, was so friendly ,the entire staff helps one another and you can feel such a great energy, like they all get along and are there to provide a great experience. We each absolutely loved our meals. We chose sea bass, swordfish, seafood gnocchi and duck. Drinks were top notch and dessert was worth every calorie, SO good. The owner was there last night and really makes sure everyone is taken care of. Really such a great atmosphere of ambience and pleasant energy of staff. These all really do make a difference. More than 5 stars. We will go back and absolutely recommend Ocean in Easton

Sat outside on a beautiful evening. Flies were a bit annoying but not horrible. Salad was large and enough for two. Octopus bruschetta was ordered for a change of pace as appetizer. Not great but okay. Wife and I shared this and she felt the same. I had the Chilean sea bass and wove the scallops. Good choices as we shared and both dishes were excellent. Will definitely return to try something new and might opt for inside table.

Ocean is beautiful inside, friendly service but I was not impressed by the food or drinks. Drinks were very bland, I got the Ocean burger and it was caked in blue cheese which was a shame because the burger itself was pretty good, the blue cheese just overpowered it.

Moved to Easton 4 years ago and this was always my favorite restaurant. Was always amazing!! Must admit haven't eaten there recently but took my husband for his birthday dinner. Not good. Very disappointed. The ocean salad seemed very old. Lettuce wilted and soggy, oranges seemed old tasteless, chopped up and peanuts not bursting with flavor like the 10-15 previous times I had itl Decided to have the saefood cioppino. Did not seem fresh. Maybe frozen seafood or old. My wine had a ton of crystals in the bottom. Had to get them out of my mouth. Server could have cared less. Won't be back for a long time. There are other great restaurants in Easton this is probably not one of them anymore :(

Ocean is a smaller restaurant... inside is nice but small... outside seating is on the lot next door w/ beautiful shrubbery & flowers. I would certainly make reservations. Food was wonderful!! Everyone in our party said their meals were delicious also?. They have options of land or sea... would definitely recommend!!
Parking: I only saw street parking, but we got lucky & got a spot right out front...

I am very surprised at all of the good reviews for this restaurant. We were pretty disappointed with our food. The calamari was tasteless and overcooked. The mussels had good flavor but they were so tiny, it was hard to find them in the shells. We basically ate the bacon bits and garlic. The scallops were totally over seasoned with pepper but they were nice and large and prepared properly. The gnocchi were soggy lumps of flour in a somewhat blah pesto sauce. When we received our bill we noticed that they do charge per soda which was not mentioned to us when we were ordering. This was a small but very annoying detail to a disappointing meal. We will not be back.
