Steamed grey sole was light, gingery. Salted fish and chicken dishes were tasty, not too salty for us. 2-3 dimsum carts were going around - S,M, or L, priced above $4 to $5.75. Small charge for hot tea per person. Were able to ask any staff for help when needed, no assigned waitstaff, which was ok bec. service was fast. Walking distance from Broadway/Queens Blvd so Elmhurst Ave stop on M, R train and a few bus lines. Restrooms available.

We came for dim sum and stayed for lunch. I loved that the rice rolls were made only if someone ordered them. My fav is the shrimp rice roll. The shrimp rice crepe wrapped me in its warm embrace while the fresh shrimp was almost crunchy, steamed just right. The chicken feet will always be one of my favorite dishes, they marinate it well and it's usually very flavorful. Our seafood chow fun was very well made, fresh rice noodle with shrimp, scallops, squid and other seafood cooked just right. The chefs here are spot on every time in taste, texture and the degree to which everything should be cooked to perfection. It's always a joy to feast here for celebrations, family dinners and everything in-between. Two thumbs up! Ocean Bay Seafood Restaurant is definitely a hidden gem and consistently brings amazing comfort food to all who crave an exciting foodie adventure.

We have been crazing seafood boil lately and ordered from here twice in the last few weeks…read more One of our fave seafood boils in queens. Been either dining in or ordering take out ever since they opened the Rego Park location. Service is always friendly and amazing either dine in or take out. Take out is super easy. Order on line and you can even accumulate points for a future discount. They also deliver for free and its pricing is better than the online ordering services. We ordered 1lb each of the shrimp with head, snow crab legs and craw fish. We love the oceanic sauce but also ordered on garlic butter with old baby cause the little one loves it. You can also pick the level of spiciness. Only drawback is, seems like there's less sauce and the sauce is very watery compared to before and my kids love dipping the seafood back in the sauce and coating their rice in the sauce. We love the mango pina colada with a kick and the virgin option is always a treat for the 21 and under. They even sent an extra drink today since they made an extra by accident. Thank you!!!

OG spot, but the food was very mediocre. The restaurant has a classic ambiance, but the execution…read moreof the dishes needs work. We had a few misses: The Eggplant and Salty Fish (2/5) the eggplant wasn't cooked long enough to achieve that desired soft texture, and the salty fish was overwhelmingly, salty. The Sweet and Sour Pork Chop (3/5) had potential, but each piece was sliced too thin and over fried, making the whole thing unnecessarily crispy instead of tender. The Fish Maw Soup (3/5) lacked the depth of flavor we were hoping for. Chicken fried rice (2.5/5): tasted like what you would expect, Americanized fried rice The Highlights: The Mayo Shrimp (3.5/5) was a better dish; we appreciated the nice crispiness, and it was an interesting take to serve the mayo on the side. The Snow Peas with Garlic (4/5) was perfectly executed, fresh and garlicky, a simple but standout veggie dish. FYI: cash only

The food has been consistently well-prepared and flavorful. Although the restaurant is small, they've always accommodated my large groups of 20-30 ppl. Great customer service! The ladies are always very friendly and efficient. Prices are reasonable and portions are large. Some standout dishes: -- West Lake Soup -- Peking Pork Chops -- Whole Roast Duck -- Salt & Pepper fried squid w.green chilies Note: entrees do not come with rice; $2/bowl. Plenty of metered street parking available right outside; or free street parking around the corner if you can find an available spot.

Service is always spot on and personable here regardless if they are busy or not. Must orders here are the several varieties of fish, but for those who eat Americanized fish, they take the head and tail off but the fish fillets are not your perfectly squared of pieces. The fish is grilled to perfection and simply served with a side of either grilled veggie, yummy pilaf rice or French fries. The octopus stew is the most buttery and tender octopus you'll ever have and who can not forget their kabob selections whether you do the chicken or lamb! Stick with the mix grill plate for both though so you get to try a selection of them all. End the night with some hot Turkish black tea or string Turkish coffee with a sweet piece of baklavah or a digestive night cap of Raki mixed with a little water and you are good to go! Can't wait for my next dinner here!

I haven't been to their other locations in the city, but this was really quite good. My recommendations are the El Gobernador, The Cracken, an aguachile (mango habanero is my fave) and the tuna toastada. The Ceviches are quite boring in my opinion, so go for an aguachile instead. DRinks are great, they have cantaritos and carajillos. What could go wrong if you've got both to choose from. Service is friendly and the ambiance is authentic mexican food plus air condiditoning. We'll be back.

Our server was extremely friendly and helpful, and she was happy to answer all of our questions about the menu. The fish was fresh, and the ceviche was solid, although there was no wow factor. The standout for me was the Molcajete Norteño, the fried octopus with guacamole, which was delicious. The most annoying part of the experience was when a kid came in and turned the music up extremely loud, then started singing a solo and going around asking everyone for tips afterward. We gave him $3 for his effort, but honestly, it was more loud and annoying than entertaining. I'm not even sure if he worked there or was just someone who came in off the street. Overall, the food was solid and the service was friendly, but I'm not exactly counting down the days until my next visit.

Then the server Bill, started acting like a used car salesman. He said he would give us a sake cause it was his birthday, but didn't tell us we were going to get charged for it. Also before my brother got there, he said that since it was his birthday, he would bring out a "banana boat" which was just 5 scoops of ice cream and some cut up banana. When we got the bill he not only charged us for both, but that banana boat was $30! When we asked about it, he argued with us saying that he didn't tell us the price of every single thing that we bought... very rude. We also tried to order two orders of regular soup dumplings and two orders of the truffle. He kept rushing our order, and then tried to change our order to four orders of the truffle. We weren't sure if we would like it yet, and kept pushing back but he wouldn't take no for an answer (that being said the truffle was good, but I'm definitely a purist and preferred the regular soup dumplings). We also ordered the kau fu but it was not good, and tasted too much of five spice. The cha cha mien was fine, but a bit small and a little bland. The rice cakes were good, but the rice cakes were not al dente enough for me. We also got the fried rice, which was fine, but nothing to write home about. Finally we got a fried tofu dish which was good and had a lot of tofu in it. Overall, this server ruined our experience. The food is fine, but there are other Shanghainese restaurants in the area and would visit those over this place.

They had nothing but the best '90s R&B playing the whole time, and honestly, the playlist alone had me singing along while cracking lobster claws! The staff was super friendly. Everyone seemed happy and engaging with the locals/regulars that err coming in; which made the experience even better. The seafood was flavorful and came out hot. The only thing I'd do differently next time is order the shrimp with the heads already off. I thought I'd be up for the full experience, but it ended up being more work than I wanted while trying to enjoy my meal. My only real complaint was the red Solo cups. It felt a little out of place for dining in and took away from the experience a bit. A regular glass would've made it feel a little more polished. Other than that, I had a great time. Good food, great music, friendly service, and a fun atmosphere. Definitely a spot I'd come back to especially for another round of seafood and that throwback playlist.

However, something has happened to the rice. Let me first correct a few things from my previous review. The front awning does have the name of the restaurant on it. Jose Fish Market is not brightly painted or printed on the awning. Second, they have flounder instead of trout. The flounder is still a generous piece of fish for $11 for the platter with rice and peas. This time the rice and peas were not edible in my opinion. I do not know what happened, but something was very very off about the rice. I would rather have the fish alone and would be hesitant to have the rice ever again here. The chicken wings at $10 for four and fries is still a great value and the wings were crispy and great with the hot sauce, even the fries were good with hot sauce.

The service was great, the staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere has a fun, casual vibe, kind of like a diner mixed with a bar. One side of the restaurant seems to be more of a party area, while the other side has that bar/diner feel. They also have an outside seating area. Theres a live band that plays, which adds to the energy, though I'm not sure which nights they perform. Overall, it's a solid spot for good food, great service, and a relaxed yet lively atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out especially if you like live music with your meal.

My coworkers were worrying about parking for the 4-5 hour party so I got worried as well (got meter parking the previous time). Good thing I drove around and found so many spots on a side street 2 blocks away. The tables were set up, leaving a small space at the far end for the food and dancing. Would have preferred dimmer lighting for dancing but it was fine. Brought our own speaker to play music. Buffet style for the salad and mains; appetizers were brought to the tables. Meatball apps were a bit salty. Liked the penne a la vodka, chicken francese and the steak. Service was still great. Had option of unlimited drinks/alcoholic drinks and they were brought quickly. Have to remember this place for parties. Or have drinks/eat in the other room where the bar is (I remember there was live music there).
