" Ocean Bistro blew me away! The calamari were lightly fried to perfection, and they had the right amount of seasoning. I also had the grilled salmon, which was flaky and incredibly moist. The service was prompt, and everyone seemed genuinely happy to work there. The only downside was the ambient noise; it was a bit loud for my taste. Still, I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious seafood! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I stumbled upon Ocean Bistro while exploring Miami Beach, and it turned out to be the best decision of our trip! The seafood tower we ordered was lavishly overflowing with fresh lobster, shrimp, and clams. Each bite was a taste of the ocean, and the house-made cocktail sauce was a perfect complement. The server, Maribel, was warm and attentive, checking on us but not being intrusive. The views were breathtaking, making our dining experience even more special. Can’t wait to come back on my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ocean Bistro truly lives up to its reputation! The view, the food, and the vibe are simply unmatched. The grilled mahi-mahi was perfectly seasoned and flaky, while the key lime pie was a perfect balance of tartness. Everything was fresh and clearly made with quality ingredients. The service was great, making sure everything was perfect for our meal. Can’t wait to come back for another taste! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner last Saturday, and boy, what an experience! I ordered the seafood platter, and it was loaded with fresh fish and shellfish! The flavors were vibrant, and it was evident that the ingredients were fresh. Our server, Enio, was super knowledgeable and made great drink suggestions. The ambiance made it ideal for a cozy dinner while enjoying the beautiful Miami night. I will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the bad luck of visiting Ocean Bistro on a busy day; service was somewhat slow, and my dish took longer than anticipated to arrive. The seafood itself was good—the branzino was cooked perfectly—but the experience was marred by delays. I would give it another chance on a less crowded day since I could see the potential. " (*Curated Review*)

" I want to highlight my experience at Ocean Bistro because it was a rollercoaster! At first, I was impressed by the location and decor, which perfectly complemented the Miami vibe. However, my main dish, the lobster ravioli, was a bit underwhelming. It felt like the sauce overwhelmed the delicate flavors of the lobster, making it a tad disappointing. Nevertheless, the service we received was commendable; our server was fantastic and attentive to our needs. Overall, a mixed bag but I’d consider returning just to try something different. " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambience was nice, and the service was friendly but the food didn’t meet my expectations. I found the garlic bread overly greasy and the seafood chowder was thin and watery. It felt like there was a lack of care in the execution of those dishes. I might consider trying a different main next time. " (*Curated Review*)
