Reviews for The Oceanaire Seafood Room in Houston, TX
The food was great. I personally love the Guava Daiquiri. My friends and I were a group of 7. We were there to try out the... Houston Restaurant Week. There was nothing to complain until the server told us: “See you all at Houston Restaurant Week NEXTYEAR.” He underestimated us by these words. We were there to support the Houston Food Bank and had a chance to try out the newrestaurant that we had never tried. However, no matter what the purpose was, we paid and even tipped him a lot. And then he saidthose to us! How rude he was. I can’t believe the luxurious restaurant like The Oceanaire is hiring this type of bad server!We will never come back! Read more
Came here for my cousins birthday and we overall were impressed. We put in a reservation and they printed a happy birthday note... on our menus. The food and drinks were delicious and the server was great at making recommendations and helping with our foodallergies. This place is very nice so I suggest wearing something a little more formal and it would be wonderful for ananniversary, or trying to impress someone special. Also even though it is a seafood restaurant they do have meatless and othermeat options. Read more
This restaurant was absolutely worth the money. We got grilled oysters rock, shellfish mixed grill, a side of lobster Mac and... cheese, and the crème brûlée. Everything went together, we got to try a variety of things, and it was all delicious. Therestaurant was high class, the servers were very prompt and kind, filling up waters and checking in when needed. When we neededhelp finding where we parked, they were more than happy to help with that as well. We’re from out of town and had no cluewhat the portion sizes were, or what to order. Our server was super helpful with suggestions based on what we wanted to try, Iwish I could remember her name. She had light brown curly hair. My one and only complaint I can think of is that the portionsizes could have been a touch bigger, but honestly we were full and took leftovers home. I really enjoyed this place!!! Read more
The food was fairly top notch. A lot of butter but that’s not a bad thing. The service was absolutely perfect. Very fast,... friendly, and accommodating. Very pricey restaurant but you get what you pay for!!! Read more
The service is impeccable. Attentive servers seat you promptly, ask exact temperature you wish your fish cooked at, and the chef... delivered with precision. The ambiance is cozy. As others review have stated, the quality and quantity are not par with theprice. The salmon was cooked to succulent medium rare but that was hardly 4 or 5 oz. The noodle was so greasy it was nodifferent than a take out lo mein. I was hoping there's vegetable serving with it but that wasn't the case. It's a great placefor group dining and to impress. Not so much for gourmet seafood enjoyment. The ROI makes me hesitant to go back and tryanother. Read more
Let me start with the positive things. Our waiter Andre was unremarkable! Very attentive and thoughtful. Beautiful atmosphere... and social distancing was great! Presentation of the food was a plus. Now the negatives... We had reservations for Christmas dayat 1. Our order was placed about 10 mins after we arrived. Our food took over an hour to come to the table. My sister had aCaesar salad and it still took over an hour for that to come out. Next the lobster rice was a best a 1. Rice was under cookedand the lobster was over cooked in every dish. It was like chewing a rubber band! The asparagus under my lobster was burnt andmy shrimp were not cleaned. Andre attempted to get the manager, Stephanie, to come to our table and we were completely ignored. Needles to say we will never go back or recommend this place to anyone. Read more
The service throughout the night was great and we definitely didn't have any issues on that front. For starters, we enjoyed the... various east coast oysters and Spicy Tempura Laughing Bird Shrimp, but the Buttermilk Fried Calamari was pretty dry and on theforgettable end of options. For main courses, the best options were definitely the Chicken Fried Lobster and Ahi Tuna (woulddefinitely recommend both dishes). The filet I ordered was overcooked and lacked enough salt/pepper to really fit the rest ofthe dinner. The Mahi Mahi fit somewhere in the middle as it didn't disappoint, but also didn't leave us wanting more. Overall,it was a solid dinner, but not necessarily one that I'll be racing back to repeat.

I went there to celebrate my birthday on yesterday, the food, atmosphere, ambiance was great. I ordered the Shrimp fried Rice... "Shanghai style with fried lobster tails, and a hard fried egg. For dessert was a Silician cake with ice cream in the middle Read more
