    We had a fabulous experience at Ocean Blvd. We entertained and impressed our out of town guests from Nantucket. We have returned four times since this spring, introducing different friends each time to a wonderful, delicious and fun time at the chef’s counter.

    The food and drinks were excellent. The service was the same. The overall experience was even better. It's not inexpensive, but worth the price. We'll be back again.

    We love this place! Sat at the Chef's Table and had a blast with the kitchen staff. A wonderful, hardworking crew to say the least!! Our food was outstanding...ordered the Chef's seafood special for the day...yellow fin tuna. Cooked to perfection.

    I don’t have enough words to describe how lovely this was. The food was amazing and the cocktails were just perfect. The service was brisk but timely. We never felt rushed, but didn’t feel like we were waiting around for things to show up. It has a lovely ambience and it’s right across the street from the beach. Will definitely come back on our next trip.

    If I could give Ocean Blvd more than 5 stars I would. We dined with another couple. Three of us immediately settled on the seared yellow fin tuna once the waiter shared that that was the chef's fish of the day. I asked for it rare and it was prepared to perfection. The black rice risotto it was paired with was delicious. One of our party ordered a cocktail she hadn't had at OB before (but has had at other restaurants). She was a little disappointed and shared that with our server, Tom. Tom immediately rectified the situation to her satisfaction - so well handled. Can't wait to come back.

    The service could not have been better. The food was outstanding. I had the halibut, and husband had duck breasts. Both were perfect. It was a wonderful time together for us, as we were celebrating our anniversary and just wanted a quiet time with very good food. It was just right. We plan to return next year.
