Overlooking the aqua colors of the Caribbean Sea, our restaurant is regarded as the island’s most iconic location for dining. We feature a fully open-air dining room. Most tables offer unobstructed views of the Baye de GriGri, spectacular breathtaking sunsets, dramatic full moons rising, passing sailboats and landing seaplanes.

Unsurprisingly, seafood dominates our menu. Whenever possible we source fresh, local seafood caught off the shores of the Virgin Islands.

We hope our passion for sustainability is evident in the highest quality and freshest ingredients we use, including seasonal produce from local farmers.

Our extensive wine list was chosen to balance refinement with versatility and intended to pair well with every item on our menu.

Our Bistro offers a fun, lively atmosphere designed with a come-as-you-are feeling.

We combine culinary excellence with superb service and an exquisite setting, creating experiences and

Our second time back to Oceana. Our server Rosa was above and beyond. Engaging, but not too chatty. We enjoyed the garlic shrimp appetizer. From the dinner menu, we had the Mahi Mahi with a lovely corn salad and puréed squash and green beans. From the specials menu, we had the Bass with black beans and chorizo rice. For dessert, the flourless chocolate cake with house made raspberry sorbet. (I would recommend getting the sorbet, I think the menu had a trio of flavors to try). Restaurant has parking, a big plus! Beautiful outdoor seating overlooking water. Would recommend an early reservation to enjoy the sunset. Oceana did not disappoint. We will be back.

Oceana is the best restaurant by far and my favorite anywhere. We absolutely love it and it has been a favorite for many years. Our waiter (? Evann) was outstanding. Owner Patricia is so welcoming and dedicated to checking in to make sure everyone is happy. Our daughter got married at Oceana in 2021 and everything was perfect!!!! Simply the best!

Food , Service and views were incredible. While having dinner we got to se a ship leave port. The Happy Anniversary card was a nice touch. The only thing i would have probably liked to see a bit more music or some type of an entertainer. Also since it is a historical sight it is not very accessible to older folks and handicaps.
