    Ocean 48 exceeded every expectation during our family dinner for five. The service was impeccable, and the ambiance was spectacular, creating the perfect setting for a memorable evening. Throughout the meal, we kept saying, "This is the best [insert dish] we've ever had!" We enjoyed an incredible array of dishes: oysters, filets, a bone-in ribeye, scallops, sides, and a key lime pie that was simply divine. The cocktails were perfectly curated, complementing the meal beautifully. Ocean 48 is a must-visit for anyone seeking a flawless dining experience. We found absolutely nothing lacking and can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

    I was extremely impressed by everything today. Everyone was friendly from the first face, and we were quickly brought to our table. The place was huge and beautiful, reminding me of Yellowstone Lodge, but with a much darker stain, and quite full, but tables were still open for other reservations. We ordered, and it seemed as if the food magically appeared in the shortest amount of time. The food was top notch, very flavorful, and so much we clearly have leftovers for the weekend. In addition, we had a gentleman clearing tables ask us if we needed anything. It has been a while since I have seen employees, who were that attentive to customer needs. My only complaint is that I was shocked that they did not offer some form of roll, or specialty bread. We will return next year!

    Something for everyone - chicken, turkey, salmon, Mexican dishes, etc. and seemingly every possible side dish. Not fancy, but it doesn't need to be, just comfortable. The staff kept the chafing dishes full and immediately cleaned up any food dropped by customers. Nice environment. Every staff member we interacted with couldn't have been more friendly. I must have heard "Happy Thanksgiving" thirty or forty times, which we appreciated as it was very sincere. The staff did an excellent job of clearing tables and being available for anything we needed. We intend to attend next year.

    This was our 8th year coming for the Thanksgiving Buffet and it was superb as always. They had turkey, brisket, and ham which was all tender and delicious. Everything from the omelette station to the sides, charcuterie, desserts, seafood etc were incredible. I ate till I could not eat anyone. The staff is all so friendly and accommodating and management was there and courteous as well. I love recommending this place as it is a bit of a secret and while I appreciate a lack of crowds, I don't want them to disappear. Check it out, you will not be disappointed.
