    There is nothing about Ocean Boulevard that we don’t like. We’ve been dining there for years and have come to rely on, and appreciate, the quality and variety of the food and drink offerings , the upscale yet relaxed ambiance, and the caliber of service. Chef Donnie King and his team continue to serve up excellence.

    I can’t decide what made this meal so wonderful. The room is warm and inviting. The staff is knowledgeable and professional but friendly. The food is amazing in taste and presentation. We have eaten at Ocean Boulevard countless times. I think what made this meal so wonderful is that every time we eat eat here it is even better than it was the last time and we can’t wait to come back again!

    The flounder special was amazing and the macadamia nut torte is one of the best desserts on the Outer Banks. Riley is a great server.

    As usual this restaurant does it right. From the warm greeting to a pleasant server who knew the menu and was able to answer questions regarding gluten, the total experience was first rate. She ordered the asparagus soup that was over the top with flavor and richness. I ordered the crab bisque and the creative touch by the chef made this dish incredible. She then ordered the strip steak that was cooked to perfection. Not every restaurant knows how to cook a steak medium rare. Hers was perfect. My rack of lamb was to die for. Absolutely delicious

    Sitting so close to people not in your party so close you could rub elbows is very uncomfortable. There are booths so make a reservation and request them or you’ll be with other people you don’t want to be with. No intimacy for conversation. The food was absolutely amazing. We had garlic shrimp appetizer, 7 lettuce salad with goat cheese and the scallop dinner with risotto. Our waitress was kind and attentive.

    The Black Drum with the vegetable medley was the best fish I have ever had. The tuna sashimi is always excellent and we NEVER leave disappointed.
