Very pricey but food quality is very high. Every dish we had in our party of 5 was a hit. All the fish / seafood is super fresh and expertly prepared. As a food experience - 5 stars. Atmosphere is beautiful and classy we sat inside but had good view to outer balcony. It is a little noisy in the restaurant and maybe the music is a little loud. Atmosphere 4 stars. read more

Happy to say we had a beautiful Sunday brunch at the oceanic. We've been here in the past and the food was pretty good. However, today for brunch we truly enjoyed our meals and the restaurant itself always is beautiful and has a great ambience and vibe. Our server was a lovely young lady, very friendly and although she had a lot of tables did a very good job. We started with the sun kiss shrimp. Very good item. Great flavor, good spice and good amount of shrimp. My wife had the watermelon shrimp salad and I had the classic Caesar salad and added blackened shrimp. Both salads were very fresh and had great flavor. Really enjoyed the food, vibe and view. The best part was the key lime pie. One of the best read more

AWESOME! Oceanic is beautifully decorated. The layout is perfect for moving around and for large groups. Bring so close to the beach is a major plus. My friends and I (7) had a BLAST! Our server, Amber, was FABULOUSLY FANTASTIC. Very pleasant and kind young lady. Thanks Amber for celebrating the birthdays with us. That was so very nice of you! As for the food it was mixed. My friend and I ordered mahi sandwiches but didn't like them. Everyone else liked their French toast, shrimp and chicken and waffles. The crab cake was good too. We will dine here again! read more

We tried Oceanic in Pompano Beach the other night, and it was a pleasant experience. We went during the week and had a reservation, although it was not very busy, so we probably did not need one. We were seated immediately. We chose to sit outside, and it was great. Since it was the evening, the atmosphere was perfect. For our appetizer, we started with the Conch Chowder, which was pretty good. It was a light dish and a nice way to begin the meal. For our main courses, we ordered the Lobster Ravioli and the Mahi Mahi. The Lobster Ravioli was delicious. It was rich, creamy, and very flavorful. The Mahi Mahi was cooked perfectly, and the couscous served on the side was excellent. The Lattarogini was also a nice touch. Overall, it was a solid dining experience, and we will most likely be back. read more

Date night vibes landed me at this Pompano Beach hotspot. Service was on point and the food even better. Tuna tataki starter (3.5/5) along with conch fritters (4/5) and a flavorful bowl of linguini, clams and shrimp (4.5/5) were pleasing choices and shared by our table. Beachside ambiance with a view made it a night to remember. read more

Nice restaurant on the waterfront. We chose to. Sit inside and it's very cute and nicely decorated. The wait staff were very friendly and engaging. Alexandria was a terrific waitress. We went for brunch and it was excellent. The house Bloody Mary and mimosa were well mixed. The kids got a mojito mocktail and a non blended strawberry daiquiri mocktail. The food was well presented and extremely flavorful. Highly recommend the French toast on the brunch menu. My husband said his chicken and waffle were fantastic. read more

Went here for my birthday dinner and had a great time. You can park nearby at the Pompano Beach garage less than a block away or valet you car. Sit outside if you can and enjoy Pompano Beach the grease is nice and you get an uninstructed view of the ocean. The service was great. Our waitresses was very nice and gave us recommendations. I got the Shellfish pan toasted which was phenomenal. Other members of my party got the Lobster Ravioli and the Pan Roasted Chicken which were delicious. I recommend taking your time and try some of their drinks and hanging out on the deck. Worth the price. read more

This is my second time there, my salade was really good and light. There's a nice view of the beach and a great ambiance read more

It was our last night in Pompano Beach so we decided to splurge with a fancier restaurant. We chose indoor seating because of the wind but still had a nice view. The Visitors Center gave us a card for a free appetizer at Oceanic so we ordered fried calamari. It was a nice sized portion but a little greasy. I ordered the catch off the day which was grilled grouper. It was served with polenta cakes and arugula. My wife chose the half roast chicken which came with mashed potatoes and asparagus. I wasn't a fan of the sauce with my grouper but otherwise happy with my meal. My wife enjoyed her chicken and had leftovers. Our server was Riley and she did a sensational job. The restaurant was a good choice for a nice last dinner in PB. read more

Easily one of my favorite restaurants in Pompano. The ambience is nice. It's relaxing, especially at the outside bar. The staff is always kind and attentive. I have been going to this restaurant for about five years now and I've worked my way through most of the items on the menu and have never had anything that has tasted terrible or been cooked poorly. They do also host events like rooftop yoga, and have brunch promotions that are always delicious and the drinks are always well-made. read more

My new favorite post-beach spot. Everything we ordered was incredible--highly recommend the calamari, ceviche, oysters, and the shrimp + watermelon salad. Perfect amount to share for two! Our server Amelia was very nice and helpful too. The margarita was also so good. Ocean views + amazing food = 10/10. read more

The Malibu w/ Diet Coke and pineapple chuck on a stick was amazingly tasty. If you like Brussels sprouts don't pass it up at the Oceanic. It was A m a "z II n g!! Delicious is just a word - it melts in your mouth. Horse radish gives the kick and the maple- well, what can say? Oohlala. Delicious. Crab cakes, I didn't order it but my friend did and she said it was one of the best she's had. My dinner order was the Cashew Crunch salad. I called the ghost! Where was the chicken, where was the mango and where was the mandarin. - it was a sad salad. The peanut sauce, needed some work. I don't usually place negativity on the site so, I will finish this with- try all the rest. You'll be pleased. By the way, try the creme brûlée, you will love it. read more

11/08/2025 Celebrated my birthday with brunch at Oceanic. We had reservations for a party of six at 11 o'clock. We had reservations to sit outside and it was a beautiful day to do that. Our table was towards the back and the way we sat we did not have the view of the water. Our server started off great but quickly forgot about the table. A lot of us were waiting for waters refills for a while after asking her various times. The food was delicious. One of my friends said her fries were extremely salty so she asked the server if she could get something less like asparagus. Instead of the server, getting a manager to deal with this, she looked into my friend's eyes and said that was going to be an up charge. My friend just got a salad. I've never seen a server take it upon herself to just take care of a customer that wasn't happy. She didn't apologize or say let me see what we can do. All she wanted was another side because what she ordered was not right. We waited for a while for our check too. However, she did come with a birthday cake which was very nice. read more

The food was great, but the wait staff that we encountered seemed less than enthusiastic to do their jobs or down right hostile. You'd figure that a place with this presentation, location, and target customer demographic would have employees that were on top of their game and would be eager to earn a solid tip on a $300 bill. Or at least make a minimal effort at doing their job. But, looks can be deceiving. The place wasn't super busy, it was only half full. Meanwhile our waiter left us with empty glasses the whole meal. We asked the waiter at the table next to us if he could send our waiter out to help us. He actually seemed pissed off that we had dared to speak to him, gave us a "Why the Hell are talking to me?" look before walking off. When he came back to deliver the food to his table he gave an exaggerated bow to them and said "Bon apatit" then cast a snotty look towards us. Everybody noticed it. Apparently he didn't pass on the message to his coworker because 30 minutes later our waiter finally shows up, just to ask us about dessert, after we had choked down our meal without drinks. We declined and said that we were ready to go. He brings out our check and the card reader and then lurks over us, inches away, with a fake smile, apparently he was trying to guilt intimidate us into giving him a big ol' $60+ tip for doing absolutely nothing. Well that opportunity had set sail already. We left $0. I've had better service and way less attitude at a run down Denny's on the "bad side"of town. I'm sure that not everyone there is as bad but we'll never risk the chance of finding out again. The moral of the story is that sometimes the table of polite, easy going, low maintenance people with the funny accents will "get right" with you when they've had enough. He'll complain about cheap tourists but he earned every cent of that $0 tip. But we're not cheap, high maintenance trash. In fact, the next day we ate at Lester's Dinner and had a great experience. We gave THAT waiter Mr. Snotty's $50 tip on a $48 lunch bill. read more

5 TAILS UP! Swampy, Vic & Veronica slid into Oceanic at Pompano Beach Pier and let me tell you... this wasn't just lunch--this was a full-on coastal experience We kicked things off with some beverages while soaking in those unbeatable views of the Atlantic Ocean. Ocean breeze, waves rolling in, drink in hand... Swampy almost forgot he wasn't on vacation (almost). Then came the food--salmon and conch chowder--and WOW Fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. The kind of meal that makes you pause mid-bite and go, "yeah... this is the spot." Service was on point, atmosphere was even better, and the whole experience just felt easy, fun, and very Florida. We came for the view... stayed for the food... and left planning our next visit. Swampy says: "If the tide's high and the chowder's hot... you're exactly where you need to be." #swampy #swampwear #SwampysAdventuresAndTallTails read more

Oceanic came highly recommended by my sister who's visited several times with her boyfriend in recents years since owning a condo not far off. Coming here was the best decision my sisters, my daughter and my niece made for an early Sunday dinner. Oceanic's inside is beachy-glam (if that's even a thing), but it's the outside that steals the show- especially in South Florida's heat (which I always LOVE). Service was incredible, thanks to our smooth-talking server (Brit accent?) who made the evening so enjoyable. Between the plentiful, tasty appetizers and the wines on the table, we had no complaints. For our main plates, the lineup was a hit all around: my two sisters shared the large Cashew Crunch Chicken Salad, my twin had the Thai Noodle Salad, my daughter went for the Cashew Crusted dish, my niece enjoyed the Branzino and I enjoyed the Sea Bass with sticky rice and beurre blanc. Every single plate was fresh, flavorful and beautifully prepared. My only complaint was the lonnnnng wait to get our wines. There was another long wait just to get our 5 Jumbo shrimp cocktail and calamari. The wait for our drinks and appetizers wasn't a "typical" wait- and that's what threw me off. My sister who's eaten here before even mentioned there was never a wait. I'm not sure what happened during our early 5pm Sunday dinner, especially with only two or three other tables occupied ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I get there were 6 of us in an almost empty restaurant, but my child had a flight to catch back to MA after dinner and had mentioned it earlier. After some time, we flagged another server to check on our meals. Coincidentally, right after that, our food was brought out at lightning speed. Despite the long wait the food was fantastic! Who knows what happened that day. read more

We went with a group of 16 to celebrate a 55 th anniversary. The review is mixed. Waitress Jo Jo was great but seemed overwhelmed. We asked for outside seating and triple confirmed it only to find that they could not do 16 outside. We had a good seating but that meant a very long table. Food took a long time. Most of us were satisfied but some had bad experiences..cold pasta cake in a seafood dish, grizzly steak, a salad entree served incorrectly. Sea bass was excellent! It's a beautiful restaurant but we dropped a lot of money for dinner with 16 people and felt unappreciated. Never saw a manager to apologize for anything. Had a nice chocolate cake slice to pass around for the anniversary couple, but would have an appreciated a dessert menu and coffee, which were not offered. read more

Visited during Saturday brunch and loved every minute. Spectacular views, delicious food, and great service. We're locals and somehow had never tried this place. So glad we finally did! We started with the calamari, and I had the pistachio piña colada along with the watermelon shrimp salad. My son ordered the fettuccine, and my husband had the steak and eggs. Everything was excellent. We'll definitely be back for dinner on our next visit. read more

Went here for lunch and sat down at the patio overlooking the ocean and pier--great views and a nice spot to eat. There were lots of birds around though, chirping a ton and flying onto the patio at times, which kept me on edge about them getting near me or the food. I ordered the lobster roll with fries and a Mountain Dew. The cups they use are actually pretty nice--made the drink feel and taste better than a regular glass. Fries were crispy and solid, especially with BBQ sauce for dipping. The lobster roll was a bit of disappointment--just lobster in a plain hot dog bun with nothing else on it. It had literally zero flavor. I had asked for a side of mayo to spread on the lobster and bun, and then it was delicious! So in other words, I made it better than the chef... should be paying me for eating here. I mean in all seriousness, for $33 and supposedly a nice restaurant, you would expect so much better for an entree on the menu and more effort given. I've never experienced such laziness to a meal. This is not a fast food place where I'd expect that. Nevertheless, the service (that I could see anyway, not the chef apparently) was excellent overall. Still glad I went and enjoyed the weather and views. read more

The food and drinks were ok. We had oysters, tuna and drinks. We really enjoyed the view from the deck and the servers were attentive.

Omg sooo I just ate at Oceanic in Pompano and I'm obsessed. The view is absolutely gorgeous!! There's parking in front in the public Parking area. you're literally right on the beach. I went during their 3:30 to 6:30 happy hour and got cocktails for only $7 and Perfect spot to relax, snack, and watch the waves roll in. I'm already planning my next trip back. read more

Oceanic has set itself up as an upscale spot in sleepy Pompano Beach. They've nailed the on-the-sand ambiance. The restaurant is elegant, yet not over the top - in keeping with Pompano's laidback vibe. Nice enough for a birthday or anniversary dinner without being too stuffy. The views are impeccable. Service was decent but a little frazzled because the place was packed. I also appreciated the fact that the staff didn't rush us to turn over the table. My problem was the food. The menu over-promised and under-delivered. The offerings were serviceable but lacked proper execution. The WOW-factor just never kicked in, but I wasn't surprised by this. Oftentimes restaurants that have primo locations rest on those laurels and the food becomes an afterthought. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. It didn't interfere with me having a great evening though. I'd definitely recommend it if you'd like to have a nice evening out on the beach. read more

We took our frail 94 year old mom to brunch here this weekend. Not a very happy experience. She's VERY elderly and frail; the valet refused to park us, and there was no close parking. I had to drop her off at the curb and go park. Inside, the hostess was rude and very impatient that our mom had mobility issues; by the time we got to our table Mom was feeling unwell. Our waitress was very nice and the food was decent (hence 3 stars) but the experience as a whole wasn't entirely happy. If you're frail or have mobility issues, stay away. TBH if our waitress hadn't been so nice, the place wouldn't have gotten 3 stars. read more

I went for happy hour a couple weeks ago and may I say this place their HH menu for food is a bit limited but their drinks starts as low as $7. There was not much opening seating at the bar so I do recommend arriving before the crowd. The bartenders were very hospitable. I started off with the Pistachio Colada-which is not in the happy hour menu but I had to get it because it was so good. I then had the Pompano Punch which could be made as apart of HH. For food I ordered the Salmon roll- fresh and delicious. I was a bit hungry so I had the roasted chicken. The chicken was juicy and seasoned well. read more

We had heard some good things about Oceanic, but our experience even went above and beyond. This place truly hits on all fronts -- from the stunning ocean views and beautiful ambiance to the exceptional service and outstanding food. We were a party of six celebrating a birthday dinner, and every dish we ordered was delicious. We enjoyed the Brussels sprouts, calamari, artisan breads, salmon, mahi mahi, crab cakes, and a variety of flavorful sides. For dessert, the gelato, crème brûlée, key lime pie and espresso martini were all outstanding -- the perfect way to end a delicious meal! Our server, Joseph, was fantastic -- very attentive and even wiped down the table between courses, which was a nice touch. Everything thoughtful and well-executed. Thank you Joseph! The only downside was the valet parking experience, but fortunately there's a nearby parking garage. We have already recommended Oceanic to friends and are looking forward to our next visit! read more

I was part of a bridal party that hosted a bridal shower in the Mangrove Room here last weekend. Food was tasty and service was good. I had braised short rib, salmon, mashed potatoes, and caesar salad. For apps we had the lamb chops, spring rolls, and crab cakes. My overall FAVORITE menu item had to be the lamb chops. They were cooked to perfection. Parking was tricky on a Saturday night but that's to be expected on the beach. They do have valet. read more

We've come here a lot over the years but today was not the best day for service at Oceanic!!! Excited to have a cocktail w my friend we sat down ordered a lightly dirty martini and an espresso martini with an appetizer and a split entree. All the food arrived in minutes- weird then my espresso martini and we just sat and stared at it bc I couldn't drink without my friend and then the waters came. Finally the dirty martini came and it was a mess! Not dirty- they added olive juice to an espresso martini complete misunderstanding-- but very frustrating and also frustrating was the food was brought by a different person WAY too early. Also pricey for what we got...:/ read more

Oceanic - Mahi Mahi - Seafood Near Me - Pompano Beach, Florida

Restaurant is beautiful. Food is well made and nicely presented. Flavors are bold but every dish we ordered was a little on the salty side especially the steamed clams. Sodium overload. A few of the clams were also on the undercooked side. The crab cake duo had lots of crab meat but overall consistency was a little mushy, not flaky chunky like I'm used to. The side arugula salad was very good. The sun kissed shrimp was delicious. The cashew crusted salmon was a huge piece tender salmon on top of mushroom ponzu rice that was amazing. The carrot ginger miso sauce was a little strong. Our server Bella A. was lovely and very sweet to bring a nice slice of key lime pie for my birthday celebration. The dessert was tangy, rich, and a gigantic slice. Much appreciated! read more

Since it's a beautiful day in South Florida, we decided to have lunch overlooking the ocean. Our server Victoria was friendly and informative. If there was an ingredient question she didn't know she would go to the kitchen and ask. It's a nice modern restaurant that's half open so you can feel the ocean breeze and see the gorgeous view from all the tables. If you can find street parking it's $17 for 2 hours. There is a parking garage on the street behind the restaurant that costs $3.50 for two hours. There is a handicap ramp leading up to the restaurant on the side of the restaurant facing lucky fish. We started with the steak tartare. It's prepared table side by the server with a garlic oil. It's served with two pieces of bread and three water crackers. In my opinion, it would be better served with only soft bread and no crunchy crackers. Then we had half a dozen oysters from Prince Edward Island, the horseradish gave it a nice kick. Lastly, the jumbo crab cake, although delicious with a great dipping sauce, was a very small portion so I don't think it should've been considered an entrée. It should've been an appetizer. The restrooms are clean and modern. On a Monday during lunch there was no wait which was nice. read more

Ugh. This place is just another in the horrible lineup of generic, crappy, OVERPRICED venues here on Pompano Beach. I guess the days of brilliant customer service are just over. These young servers are SO uninterested in providing customers with a memorable dining experience, that a MANAGER had to be called in to take over service at the outside bar. Just dreadful. Makes me never want to leave my cozy oceanfront condo, if this is the best Pompano Beach can offer....boo read more

Extraordinarily disappointing. Made reservations to spend my birthday at Oceanic with my husband. When I made the reservation I requested a table closest to the beach and I understood that it was not promised. So, that was fine. But when we arrived, there was no seating near the beach. I asked the hostess for guidance - should we should wait at the bar for a table to open up? She said yes. That was a good idea. We had appetizers and drinks. But, it only got more crowded and then there was no table outside. I told the hostess we wanted to sit outside but she just gave all the tables away. BEWARE. Making a reservation means nothing. I honestly don't know why they take reservations if they won't honor out door seating. I was so disappointed. We were discouraged by the hostess' lack of care, concern, or engagement. We just decided to never go back. This is not a place for special occasions. read more

Oceanic - Seafood Near Me - Pompano Beach, Florida

I love spending time at the beach. My sister and her family took me to a restaurant on the Pompano Pier called Oceanic. We picked a table outdoors which was perfect! I love soaking up the sunshine and breathing in the fresh ocean air. There were so many delicious items on the menu to choose from like the ceviche (mahi mahi, lime, tomato, jalapeño, red onion, avocado, cilantro). And the Sun-Kissed Shrimp that my sister ordered in a Thai sweet and spicy chili sauce. I went with the Bacon Blue Burger (Point Reyes Blue, Neuske's bacon, bibb, tomato, truffle aioli on a brioche bun) and it was so good. It also game with herb sea salt fries that were absolutely delicious. Little man also enjoyed the fries along with an order of chicken tenders. We enjoyed everything - the food, the company, the view, and especially the atmosphere. Our waiter was fantastic and everything came out fast and exactly as we ordered it. C even asked for pineapple and our waiter was nice enough to get him a slice from the bar while we were waiting on our food to arrive. read more

The place is beautiful, dont get me wrong, but the service is extremely slow. The happy hour is pretty busy at the bar but not much food choices and most are fried. The server took our order, it took about 20 to 25 minutes to get our drinks. After that we basically never saw him. We waited soo long that happy hour ended before we could get a second round. When the table asked for dinner menus, he brought 2. There were 7 of us. My wife asked for a menu and he replied that there was one with our friend. So we asked may we have one of our own, that should be obvious. The service is just too slow. Food was ok. Nothing special. Basic menu. Maybe go on a Monday or Tuesday. Don't go Fridays. read more
