Confusing at first, as three restaurants share the space. Enjoyed a delicious Faroe Island Salmon dish with mashed potatoes and a Caesar salad. Gio was a solid good server. Bit pricey but quality.

I’m a military man who lives in Iowa but works in Omaha. I drive a lotttt. Well, after a long day, I tried out Oceanside, and was met with the friendliest server. Still in uniform, I spoke with Josh, who shared his family story and how they have also served. He thanked me for my service, and shared so much care that I had to keep myself from crying. Furthermore, the food was exceptional. Thank you, Josh. What seemed like such a small thing with your generosity meant the most to me. Stay cool ♥️

My husband and I went here for our 9 year anniversary last weekend and couldn’t have been happier with the food, service and atmosphere! The loaded cheesy potato soup was the best soup I’ve ever had! Everything was extremely tasty.

Mia, our server, asked what we were doing the rest of the evening and we told her we were celebrating our anniversary! She gave us a free slice of cheesecake that was absolutely delicious AND a card signed by all the staff. Oceanside Grill made an excellent impression and we’ll definitely be back! Go check it out for yourself!

I had high expectations to get the Canadian walleye and it’s no longer available as of 1-3-26 bc I dont eat other seafoods! It was my Daughter’s choice of restaurant for her Birthday! A steak restaurant is connected in the same building so we thought perfect we can order steaks and seafood and all wld be perfect! We were wrong as the server told us either order from the seafood menu or steak menu,well damn I said! I ordered another fish with asparagus and broccoli,and it was ok for the price! For the 4 of us,once and done! Thanks for reading!

The food was amazing and exactly what we were looking for! The calamari was the best I’ve ever had as well! Our waitress Mia was the sweetest and definitely will be back to hopefully sit in her section!

My husband and I wanted to try some place new. He had the Filet and Lobster, with clam chowder, crab mac and cheese and an Old Fashioned. He felt like the quality of the filet was subpar for the price, and it wasn’t seasoned except for the butter that had dripped down from the shrimp that was on top of it. The clam chowder didn’t taste like clam chowder as it was overpowered by the bacon/ham and it didn’t look creamy. The crab mac and cheese was overcooked. His Old Fashioned tasted like whiskey and bitters, and at the bottom of the glass was what looked like a puddle of sugar mixed with something red (maybe a cherry).
I had the Faroe Island Salmon, the garlic whipped potatoes, asparagus and a lemon drop martini. The salmon was decently cooked, but not seasoned and somewhat bland, the shrimp on top were quite good though. The garlic whipped potatoes might have had a piece of garlic waved over top of it, and weren’t very creamy for being whipped. The asparagus was a huge disappointment. It was yellowed and mushy at the bottom, with the exception of the one piece that was grey. I tried a piece and it also had no flavor and no seasoning. I was unable to eat anymore than that. It also came in a weird ramiken like you would expect crème brûlée to come in, so it was hard to cut. The lemon drop martini was decent, and I have no complaints. We were given some bread and pesto while we waited for our food, and the pesto was probably the highlight of the meal as it was rather good.
We were in the room with the bar, and the acoustics were terrible and that wasn’t helped by the very loud table behind us. Made it almost impossible for us to have a conversation. Our waitress was nice, checked in on us regularly, and seemed knowledgeable.
Overall it wasn’t the experience we were hoping for and we have no plans on going back.

We loved the food here. Our service was very nice every time too. The seating is comfortable but the atmosphere feels little cold. Overall this is still one of our go to place to have great food!

Gio was very attentive and prompt service was provided. Calamari was a fantastic appetizer. Main entree Salmon was wonderful as were crab cakes, shrimp and filets. As we were celebrating an anniversary, the gratis cheesecake was a nice gesture. Good experience.

Had an excellent dinner here last night! The food and service were both amazing. We tried the calamari and crab cakes – both were delicious! For dinner we had the lobster & crab dinner and scallop and shrimp skewer with mango salsa – highly recommend. Our service was great: prompt and attentive! This is an great addition to the area!
