"Restaurant was crowded and seems very popular. The upstairs area and patio have a great lively atmosphere. But no dogs allowed except on the lower back patio. Downstairs served only drinks. Great place to watch the sunset and hang out. Since we had our small dog we needed to order out and it was hit enough on patio without a lot of shade that we took it back to house. Great seafood. Food alone is a five. Got the grilled seafood platter, New Orleans BBQ shrimp, and crab stuffed jalapenos. Should have realized we had no way to eat the crab. Only plastic utensils supplied. Gotta plan ahead next time. Definitely worth the stop."

"Very disappointed in the overall service and food. We were seated for 20 minutes and never did have a wait person come to acknowledge us. I had to go up and let the hostess know we still had not been waited on and asked her to send someone over to our table. Finally someone came to take our order but from the time we were seated it took 30 minutes just to get our drink and food order and we ended up with another server after our order was taken. Our drinks and food did come out in a timely fashion however the fried seafood platter was way over cooked and the stuffed shrimp was extremely salty. On a good note the pecan crusted salmon was good, albeit pricey. After we were finished, it took a very long time to get our bill and then for the waitress to get us paid out. I did not like your tipping system at all, having the wait person bring a computer tablet to you, after receiving your paper receipt, then asking what percentage you want to tip. If you didn't select one fast enough it timed out so she had to bring out another hand held device asking me to type in the dollar amount I wanted to tip. Customers should not be put on the spot about tipping. I have always been a good tipper but for me, it should be reflective of the overall service, quality of food and price to determine the amount of tip to include on the food receipt that is brought to us, not on a computerized tablet brought out by your wait person, asking you to pick a tip percentage. Though I was only going to give a 1 star rating, I chose 2 because once we did get the wait person assigned to our table, she did her best but it was obvious she has not been well trained on how to wait tables. It seemed like she was all over the floor serving customers, not allowing her to efficiently serve her customers. I understand that it is the busy season, but in summary, we had a very dissatisfied evening with service, food and pricing as we were there to celebrate our granddaughters 21st birthday. I hope things improve at your establishment as we have been there several times but your current operation and food preparation are not reflective of the better times that we have been there in the past."

"Pictures of items provided. Ocean Grill earned 2 stars for being nice, but our experience goes downhill from there. They were understaffed which led to long waits for about everything, and they were out of many items. My wife ordered the chicken fried steak and I ordered the Mahi Mahi with Cajun Shrimp Sauce and a cup of seafood gumbo for an appetizer. A table of 3 that came in after us got their dinners before I got my gumbo appetizer though we had ordered before they had even sat down. The gumbo was very salty and the shrimp in it were mush, but it did have a nice underlying flavor which indicates it would be good if it was fresher.My wife 's chicken fried steak had a weird flavor that reminded me of fennel and the toast was a garlic toast instead which was off putting. The shrimp on my Mahi Mahi dish were good as was the dirty rice. The garlic mash side looked old and contained undercooked potato pieces. The spicy green beans were canned green beans with what tasted like paprika on them. This was disappointing because spicy green beans made with fresh or even frozen green beans are really good. Crushed red pepper or pepper sauces should be used instead of paprika which isn 't really spicy at all.My Mahi Mahi was overcooked and dry and was covered with a gloopy Cajun sauce which overpowered the flavor of everything. If the fish was prepared correctly and the sauce was thinner, it might have been nice."

"Our waitress was to the point and on her way this way, that way and back again. Food was good and the portions matched the cost. The margaritas were on point and back to back which is rare but this bar tender isn 't your average Joe! Salad bar was small but good! Environment was average and you could definitely tell the difference between the locals and visitors. Outside area was over grown and seem to be in need of repair but then again, no one was out there. Still should maintain the lawn which the rating for the 4 and not a 5. Of course when you drive up it 's not what I expected and this place could use some cosmetic updates but other then that it was all good vibes. Two 's up! The final break down on the receipt would have been nice but I 'm good with paying for good food. $100 buck for a party of 3. Ordered 3 appetizers jalopeno kisses, shrimp wrapped in bacon and shrimp cocktail, 2 margaritas, 12 -Oz rib eye steak (1 cut) w/ French fries and garlic bread and fried shrimp w/ baked potato along withb2 salads which were self serve."
