Very disappointed with the NEW menu. Limited and missing the favorites that the Ocean House was known and loved for. Our waiter, Jim was outstanding! The manager (name?) Was excellent too. I will miss going...was always the highlight of my summer on Cape Cod.

The ambience, views of the ocean, and service were exceptional! The appetizers (Cod cheeks and Tuna tartare) were delicious. The main course of Scallops was slightly overcooked. The Riesling by the glass (A 2002 Karl Erbes) had me searching the Cape and internet for a bottle or 2 to take home.
