All time favorite seafood restaurant! Loved their smoked red snapper with orzo & artichoke dish but they unfortunately no longer make that. Highly recommend the house salad & the bread pudding though.

Food was delicious and the service top notch. We were there for Houston Restaurant week and menu outstanding.

Scampi was a tad salty...Halibut was delish. Didn't care for the gnocchi but the truffle mashed was a great side. Guava daiquiri ok. A bit overpriced for that but not terrible where I won't return.

Have the calamari, fish and chips, sweet corn and lobster risotto, and mac & cheese. And Skip the Sous Chef is so personable. Oceanaire is serious about seafood!
Simon JohnsonMarch 12, 2015
Very nice. Would be nicer to see. Broader selection of seafood and some less overtly Texan preparations.

Service was a bit slow at the bar. Food was good. Bibb salad and ahi tuna was excellent

King crab was great- but if I had it again I'd take them up on the offer for them to shell it for me.

Happy Hour is great! Try the Fish n Chips or the Jumbo Shrimp with a Patronrita or Acai Berry Blossom

The tuna tower appetizer is amazing.

Amazing food. Tell them "no bread" and double check that the wine you drank is the one you got charged for.

Landry’s Restaurant, Inc., the ever-expanding seafood empire helmed by Tilman J. Fertitta, recently acquired the Oceanaire. We'll keep you posted on any changes.

It's really sad how the landry's corporation took over and ruined this place. Added all these fried platters to the menu and the quality and flavor has suffered. But I hear that's what they do best

If you aren't in a suit and tie, don't expect a manager to stop by your table and insure you had a pleasant dinning experience.

Waiters here are rude and snobby. Don't expect good service unless you look like you're made of money. On the bright side: the carrot cake serves 4 and is simply divine.

Good drinks & service but the overpriced food was subpar and not fresh
