Reviews Summary

Ocean Bleu Seafoods at Gino's is praised for its exceptionally fresh, locally sourced seafood and friendly, accommodating service, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. While many dishes, like the coconut prawns and clam chowder, receive rave reviews, some diners found certain items, such as the shrimp and crab dip, to be lacking in seafood content.

"This was the best seafood I've ever had on the East Coast! Although we arrived at 8 PM, just 30 minutes before closing time, we were greeted with open arms. The service was exceptional, and everyone was very friendly! Our food arrived quickly and was incredibly fresh.

We ordered the coconut prawns, which were juicy and fresh—truly the best I’ve ever tasted! The coconut crust was crunchy and delicious, and the red curry dip and mango salsa complemented the dish perfectly. The smoked platter was full of flavor, allowing us to mix and match different tastes. The local oysters were impressively clean and fresh; kudos to the shucker for opening them without any bits of shell!

The ghost ale was delightful, with a fruity note that I highly recommend. I would absolutely come back here and encourage everyone to check this place out!"

"This is a great fish shack. All of our dishes were excellent. Rock fish sandwich, Crab cake, Fish and chips salmon, steamed clams and lastly chowder. All dishes were plated well and the Gino fries are terrific. Gino fries are a lot different from normal fries . Kind of potato chip style but from small potatoes with skin on. Best fries I have ever consumed."

Will Sommer

"Very casual place but excellent food. Service from Jorge is excellent as well; very friendly, polite n comfortable feelings (not overly). We ate at Local Ocean the day before then come here, the dishes we got is better quality n taste then Local Ocean. At LO, we had crab cakes, fish n chips, grilled tuna berry salad. Crab cakes were no crab taste n lots of flour. At Gino, we got grilled shrimp/peach salad; bacon hazelnut crust snapper w rice pilaf. n popcorn shrimp. Popcorn shrimp batter was very light! Crusted snapper has bacon n roasted garlic n rice pilaf is so good. We checked n its organic wild rice blend $4.99 per lb. Unbelievable that chef would serve this quality rice for years. A must return place for us. Creative dishes w quality n value!"
