Overlooking the aqua colors of the Caribbean Sea, our restaurant is regarded as the island’s most iconic location for dining. We feature a fully open-air dining room. Most tables offer unobstructed views of the Baye de GriGri, spectacular breathtaking sunsets, dramatic full moons rising, passing sailboats and landing seaplanes.

Unsurprisingly, seafood dominates our menu. Whenever possible we source fresh, local seafood caught off the shores of the Virgin Islands.

We hope our passion for sustainability is evident in the highest quality and freshest ingredients we use, including seasonal produce from local farmers.

Our extensive wine list was chosen to balance refinement with versatility and intended to pair well with every item on our menu.

Our Bistro offers a fun, lively atmosphere designed with a come-as-you-are feeling.

We combine culinary excellence with superb service and an exquisite setting, creating experiences and

    Oysters and buratta appetizers were very tasty. The fish was lacking flavor. Service was prompt at first, then tapered off as the evening went on.

    The food is outstanding. Very fresh fish, interesting accompaniments, beautiful presentation. Excellent, attentive service. A bit on the pricey side.

    Delicious food in a lovely setting. Went two nights in a row and both meals were perfect. Staff could not have been lovelier. Food is expensive but worth it. The scallops were the best I’ve ever had!

    One of the best dining experiences on the island. It’s open air dining with beautiful views of the sunset. They have great signature cocktails. Their menu is wonderful and they also have a daily menu with additional menu items based on local availability. They have the best servers and they are so attentive to every detail. Do not have any hesitations on dining at Oceana, as you too will discover why it is one of the best restaurants in St. Thomas.

    We had an outstanding experience as always. The food and service are by far the best on the island. We’ve been here at least 30-40 times over many years and it never disappoints. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
