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

    Other than having to wait for our table with reservation for 45 - 60 minutes with a reservation, the food was excellent. Best crab cake I’ve ever had. Oceana was definitely the best restaurant we dined in on the island. The wait for the table occured because it rained just before we arrived, necessitating changes in seating. Overall would highly recommend and would return when I return to St. Thomas.

    Fresh local organic foods, very friendly people, awesome venue on the water, superb menu by and property by chef Patricia. Lovely bar area and deck space for intimate drinks. Absolutely our first port of call when we sail into St Thomas.

    I think it’s hard to argue that there’s a better restaurant on all of St. Thomas than this. The food is spectacular EVERY SINGLE TIME! the ambience is amazing. Try to go during sunset for the most beautiful scene ever. Service is excellent.
