Editorial Review for Ocean Ave Seafood – by Melanie Abrams
The Scene
The airy dining room exudes '90s chic, with accents of shiny brass and dark wood, wicker furniture and lush ficus trees. The hip-looking staff bring this crowded eatery up to date, and the ocean view from the patio can't be beat.
The Food
The sophisticated seafood menu features imported delicacies like big eye tuna from Kona and Pacific Northwest mussels. From the raw bar, plump, bi-coastal oysters are a must. Imperial Eagles from British Columbia are particularly sweet and succulent. Pry broiled lobster tail from the shell and indulge in tender meat with a crisp, smoky crust. Grilled wild king salmon is flaky and moist, brilliantly matched with a rich, almost meaty, pinot noir and cherry sauce. Warm chocolate bread pudding with creamy vanilla bean sauce is a standout dessert.
