Best dining experience in a long time. Food was excellent. Service was even better. We were greeted by name at the table by our server which immediately suggested to us that they care. Both servers were very polite and professional. We started with raw oysters and octopus then scallops with Brussels sprouts. Finished with coffee and crème brûlée. We loved everything

We stayed at the Ocean House over the weekend and the manager, Brian Smith, went absolutely above and beyond. We have dined at many places and, I have to say, the way Brian treated us and showed his commitment to customer service was beyond anything we have ever experienced. For this reason alone I would recommend The Bistro to anyone at any time, not to mention how exceptional the food was. What a phenomenal night and experience. Thank you, Brian!

My friend and I had the Brie Appetizer and it was delicious. The staff was friendly and recommended a wonderful wine for us to enjoy. The atmosphere is very cozy.

We just finished brunch at Ocean House this afternoon and it was outstanding. The delicious brunch was made even better because of our waiter Ryan, who went over and above to make sure we enjoyed our entire experience at Ocean House. The Service he provided was Exceptional. Thank you, Ocean House, and Ryan. I look forward to the opportunity to return soon for another great. Jazz Brunch!

I had the pleasure of dining at Ocean House today, and I want to express my sincere appreciation for Ryan, our waiter. He truly elevated our brunch experience with his attentive and intuitive service. Ryan went above and beyond to ensure that my dear friend, received his favorite macaroons. The level of service we experienced was exceptional, deserving of more than 5 stars. I am genuinely grateful for his hospitality and kindness during our visit.

The views, service, and food were all exceptional. We enjoyed a Sunday afternoon brunch and it was great! Highly recommend. The advertise as Jazz brunch but the music is in the lobby area and in the dining room we could not hear it.

Would highly recommend brunch to anyone that loves being pampered. The food and services outstanding. We always leave very full and always with leftovers ❤️celebrating something special? Give it a try you will not be disappointed

The atmosphere was very nice and inviting and we were looking forward to the food; however, it was very disappointing. Non of the dishes we ordered had any sort of taste, the burger for our daughter was burnt, lobster roll was dry and chew, chicken the same, lobster salad was wilted and no taste at all. We traveled over an hour to celebrate our daughter's birthday and it was very disappointing.

We had a reservation for Wednesday night in the Bistro and were prepared to spend quite a bit, however, we were pleased to find out there was a fixed price, 4 course meal with wine for $55. The food and service were excellent but we had to ask if there was any specials before we received that menu. Our waiter did not volunteer it. I have no idea why and I found it very strange.

Went for the Westerly Wednesday prix fixe menu. It was a great way to try them out because they are on the high end. Now that we know that the food is really good, we will definately be back. The salmon tartar was amazing and the salmon entree was very good too. They cooked it perfectly. The shrimp appetizer was perfectly seasoned and not overcooked.
We have enjoyed dining at the Ocean House several times over the last few years. As always, the surroundings are beautiful, the facility is luxurious and well maintained. Our reservation was handled well, and service was excellent. It is not inexpensive, but reasonable value overall. Our only slightly negative comment is that the food was more "average" than we had come to expect. In the past it has been consistent with the overall quality of the experience.

The service and food was good overall, with one exception. I ordered the scallops and they did not taste fresh (had a fishy taste/smell). I didn't make a big deal of it, but was disappointed the staff didn't make an effort to do anything about it other than offering to cook it more. I would have appreciated something that made me feel heard (even just an apology from the GM). It was a shame the most expensive dish we ordered was the least good. The steak frites and clam chowder were great! Otherwise we appreciated acknowledging our engagement and the friendly waiter who followed us outside to sit outside on the deck at the end of the night. I'd consider going back but probably stick with something simpler like a burger.

We had a 5:30 reservation. There was a wait to be seated. We were seated in a corner with no ocean view. Menu needs more than just 1 vegetarian option. Drinks and apps were served promptly. Entrees took a while and dessert took a ridiculous amount of time to be served. We wanted to take a walk to see the ocean but couldn't because we didn't finish dessert until 8:00. Many different servers. Confusing to us and them. I think our desserts were forgotten about. There was no need to be there for 2 1/2 hours.

We were looking for a restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere, AC and an ocean view and the Bistro fit that perfectly. The service from Ryan and Tracy was very attentive and the food offerings were clearly explained. Our 1/2 size salads, main dish and dessert were simply wonderful along with very authentic focaccia.

We had an amazing lunch at the Bistro in the Ocean House. The Lobster rolls were brimming over with sweet,warm & melted Lobster Tails in a toasted & buttered roll. It also came with a delectable salad. Our drinks were devine from the bar. I had a Cosmo & a Chocolate Raspberry Martini to top it off. Our waiter, Ryan was especially perfection. He was curtious, listened & shared a part of himself with us that was very endearing and courageous. He was attentative and inviting. He made our delightful lunch even better. We can't wait to go back. Thank you for such great service!
