Oceanside Broiler Reviews

Have dined here many times over the years. Came here on a Good Friday with a friend. We ordered from the Happy Hour menu. Service was great thanks to Jorge We sat outside at the table overlooking the docks It was a bit on the cold side so people wore jackets We got the * Blackened Salmon Tacos * Coconut Shrimp * Crab Cakes And more..

So my mom, and my son and my fiance are just here over the weekend before Easter tomorrow and we decided to try Oceanside boiler for dinner, and I was really impressed! The garlic cheese toast was amazing! And the mahi fish taco from the happy hour menu was so fresh and flavorful! Couldn't stop eating it haha. And my fiance said these were the BEST chicken tenders he's ever had!! Definitely recommend this place if you're craving seafood or just want something comforting like chicken tenders. It wasn't super crowded, but definitely popular! The server was amazing as I couldn't decide between the crab cake and the mahi taco and she was super honest and I loved it! The ambiance in the restaurant was very aquatic and loved it! There was even a birthday as we left.

Food is good. Beautiful atmosphere right in the harbor. Both inside and outside seating. You can have get togethers here and there is no charge, you just pay for your food and you can decorate how you like. Our waitress Lizzy was awesome. Great job broiler. I love the garlic toast.

I love coming here for happy which is EVERYDAY from 11-6. Great options, staff is always friendly. Great views on both patios (doggie friendly on the front patio). One of my favorites are the mussels!! So good!! I also love their clam chowder, chicken lettuce cups, ahi nachos and the crème brûlée. They also carry one of my favorite beers: space dust. I definitely recommend checking this place out.

Food and service is always good- usually come for happy hour all day. Can't beat the ambiance on the harbor so it's a great place to bring visitors or just grab a bite in a nice area. Celebrated some birthdays here too as something to fit everyone-prefer the outdoor seating weather permitting.

Beautiful Location, Delicious Food, Wonderful Service. Brought my family for a lunch with a view and it did not disappoint. The shrimp tasted fresh, the pasta sauce was thick but not heavy and the cheesy bread was a nice addition. Everyone loved their food so no complaints! Will be back!

I have to give it to this place - we came in as a group of 10 (4 of which were kids) without reservations and they got us seated. Luckily we were outside and in between lunch and dinner time so we had the space. The wine was awful - both the Chardonnay and the Sauvignon blanc - but the food was decent. Everyone ordered all sorts of different things but I had the crispy prawns and some nachos from the Happy Hour menu. Had to order extra cheese because luckily our server was honest with us and told us it doesn't come with much, and I'm sure glad I did because even with the "extra" cheese it still wasn't very much. This place wasn't the best place we ate at during our trip, but they were accommodating and friendly and for that, I have to give them credit. If you find yourself in the area with a larger group this spot is for you.
