My friends and I were very impressed with this restaurant. They are very accommodating, for example, in meeting the customer's specific dietary requirements, and in splitting the check - the waitress who served us was excellent, we were really pleased with our experience. The food was amazing, we enjoyed their desserts as well! We will definitely go back. They have Sunday brunches and will surely check that out in the future.
This restaurant is an absolute delight in culinary experience. The seafood is delicious and presented in a great visual manner. Service was wonderful. Chris was meticulous with all aspects of our meal but didn't hover over us. I definitely would recommend this place. Prices are a bit up there but I think they are worth it.
Sunday early afternoon lunch. We were greeted by a friendly staff member who checked us in for our reservations that were very user friendly to access, confirm, and change online. We were able to change easily our reservation time online due to last minute unexpected circumstances. The restaurant is located in a small outdoor mall with diverse retail stores. It is not part of a national chain, and appeared to be a local establishment. The menu is robust and extensive with many varieties of fish, shellfish, cooking styles and sauces. The staff was willing to provide small garden salad not on the menu. The appetizers, cocktails, and main courses were presented quickly. The softshell, crabs, calamari, french fries, and tilapia were fried to perfection. Our fried fish and soft shelled crabs came out hot, crispy, and non-greasy. The waiter was very attentive and checked back with us several times to ensure our satisfaction with our meals and the service. All in all, the dining experience was very pleasant. The food was well prepared and the service, outstanding and friendly. We look forward to dining again at the Ocean Paradise Restaurant and Bar.
Food was excellent, waitstaff was wonderful. Our only complaint concerned the seats. They were too low for the table height, or the table was set too high. This seemed to be the case with all the tables/seats.
Small compact restaurant. The food was great. Organizing the servers was not. When we eventually got a server, she was very nice. It just seemed like they overbooked given it was Father's Day. However, I would still go back because of the quality of the food.
Our first time visiting. Went there for Father's Day. Food service was great and food was delicious. A bit loud since it is an open concept restaurant.
We been there before and again everything was excellent. Service was great. They have good runners which is always a plus. The grilled Bronzino was exceptional. I had the Father's Day special with lobster tail, scallops and shrimp. It was very good
We got there and it was quiet, became very noisy about 30 minutes in. Food was amazing, wine was a little more than table wine at premium prices. Overall, a great experience. Waiter was very good too.
Fresh seafood, beautifully cooked - Ocean Paradise never disappoints. Michelle, our server, was attentive but not intrusive and made the experience so enjoyable! This is my 5th or 6th visit and I'll keep coming back!
The food was delicious! This marks my second visit, and I couldn't be more pleased. The service is exceptional—attentive and friendly, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. The bouillabaisse is a standout; it's brimming with a generous assortment of fresh seafood rather than just broth. I also tried the lobster and scallops dish, which is impressively hearty—a large portion, perfect for sharing between two people. The oyster-stuffed mushrooms are a delight, bursting with savory goodness. Lastly, the chocolate desserts are not overly sweet. Overall, this place continues to impress! The only thing I was a bit disappointed with was that I put in my reservation that this was a birthday celebration for my best friend. I hoped they acknowledged that and had a candle in the desert for her.

The food and drinks were amazing. It was a little noisey even though it was not crowded. We will definitely go back
Sunday night reduced price oysters are always a treat. Excellent service. A favorite place.
the decor of the restaurant is cold, doesn't feel cozy and warm. price of the food is not cheap compared to its portion of food. overall it is so so, no intention goes there again.
Best customer service ever! Fantastic food & just great people overall. Highly recommended
Excellent dinner. Food was delicious. We love the generous amount of grilled vegetables. Swordfish was cooked to perfection. Our server was , “Marlin like the fish” as she introduced herself. She took excellent care of us. We will return.
