Five Ocean is a diamond along the beach, where casual meets culinary brilliance in the most unassuming manner. The ambiance is a relaxed nod to the seaside spirit, inviting diners to bask in the comfort of a breezy, sunlit setting. Chef Craig, the virtuoso behind the ever-evolving menu, ensures that each dish is a revelation, brimming with flavors as vibrant and fresh as the ocean itself.
Here, the art of cooking is celebrated with a playful finesse, and every plate that leaves the kitchen tells a story of creativity and passion. It’s not just the food that makes Five Ocean a standout; it’s the experience of enjoying exceptional, inventive cuisine in the laid-back warmth of a beachfront gem. This is where memories are garnished with laughter, conversations, and the sheer joy of discovering what Chef Craig will conjure up next.
Brunch, lunch, happy hour, dinner, late night— you cannot go wrong. And the drinks rock, too.

I have nothing but positive to say! The service at this restaurant is amazing. The food is delicious and all tastes fresh. I had the local fish, and the taste of the meal was outstanding. The presentation was like a meal for my eye. I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant, being so close to the water everything was beautiful. I would definitely recommend going for dinner.

My wife and I have been coming to this absolute gem of a restaurant for over three years now. It’s about time I sang the praises of the incredible food and awesome beach vibe! Order the creamy burrata with strawberry compote and you’ll have the perfect starter for the signature buttermilk fried chicken. You will never have crunchier, more tender, more flavorful fried chicken, anywhere. My wife ordered the Maine scallops last night, and the presentation was as gorgeous as the scallops were delicious. Every dish on the menu is a home run, served up by a pleasant young staff that is eager to please. Pro tip: request an outdoor table for a view of the sand dunes and the western end of the Long Beach boardwalk.
Five Ocean is Craig Attwood’s crowning achievement in casual Long Island dining. Highly recommended!

Super friendly and accommodating. Really great service. We had Colin and he was top notch. I wanted to add a protein in my salad and they suggested seared tuna. It was seasons very nicely. The dressing on the salad was a little salty, but overall very good.

I recently had lunch at Five Ocean after an afternoon boardwalk stroll with friends. Their current Summer 2024 menu is refreshing with a Mediterranean twist (get the feta dip-you will not be disappointed!). Amy was our fabulous server who had excellent recommendations. Looking forward to coming back for the watermelon basil marg and lobster nachos!

A delightful gem at the West end of the Boardwalk complete w Appetizers, Entrees and drinks. Cozy and casual with indoor and outdoor seating and views. I thought I was getting a simple fried calamari dish and was delighted for it to be presented with salad and a tasty dipping sauce. The staff was friendly and everything was beautiful.

As a local, Five Ocean is my go-to for showing off Long Beach to friends and family. The setting and staff are awesome, there’s no where else in town you can dine on the beach; and the food is exceptional. I’ve never had a bad meal there, actually I’ve had some of my best, and there’s always something new, seasonal and amazing to try.
