Have breakfast there at least once a month. Cannot fault the service, the food or the price. Add in the location, what more could you want for breakfast. Special mention for Lisa, who looks after us.

We usually eat at Roslin Beach but thought we would try Ocean Beach for a change. We had a chicken salad and goats cheese salad which were nice but very expensive. Waited ages for them to come up, The worse thing for us was the loud music which, with the crowded atmosphere in the conversatory, (great for you), made it difficult to talk and quite stressful. The waitress did turn it down a bit when we asked (thank you) but this is a make or break issue for me as I like to be able to enjoy conversation when I go out with friends to eat. Lovely location and nice waiting & bar staff.

Had a good time at the restaurant last night. The food was very good and the drinks OK, if a little expensive. Service was good and deserved recognition but that would have been better as a personal tip, not as a 10% service charge. Overall though well worth a visit!

The staff are very polite and friendly. The food was lovely but I was quite surprised it wasn’t hot which isn’t very good because I didn’t eat all my food because it went cold to quick.

We we’re welcomed by a lovely young lady with a smile on her face. The couple of waiters who served us were very friendly, welcoming and very approachable they attended to our needs, one of the waiter answered all our questions and couldn’t do enough for us. Will definitely highly recommend ocean beach. Thank you all we had a great afternoon and made my friends 70th birthday very special.

We had to wait a long time for our table; even though we were booked in for 7pm, it was nearer 8pm by the time we sat. I do think we had been forgotten about in the bar area. We ordered fairly quickly, but again, waited a long time for our starters to arrive and in turn, our mains. The restaurant was not what I would call busy, so it was disappointing that the wait for everything was so long. When the food came, it was good, but it has put me off arranging to visit on a Friday night again.

Booked an outside seat at 545pm. On arrival was advised no outside seats even though that is what we booked and confirmed. Was a special occasion. Did not get served our food for over an hour. Not great service at all.

Very good. Great position overlooking the sea. The staff were very friendly, helpful and attentive. The menu was extensive and varied. The food was really tasty and enjoyable. The cost was reasonable offering quite good value. My only criticism was the rather limited choice of dessert. Will certainly revisit but will go to Rossi's for dessert.
