Restaurant Review

This is one of the best sea food restaurants in Northern New Jersey.

Owners Nicos (Nick) and his father Executive Chef Peter Panteleakis know seafood. Peter is passionate about making trips to the Fulton Fish Market to make fresh sea food selections to ensure the highest quality sea food is served at his restaurant.

The restaurants decor is elegant with two dining rooms done up with lots of polished dark wood, grass-cloth wall coverings, white table linen, and black-and- white prints of vintage sailing yachts. It's a good choice for special occasions, business meetings, and for a romantic date. For quiet conversation, ask to be seated at a back booth.

The ambiance is energetic and friendly, from the initial greeting by the manager or the hostess, to the bartender, and the well dressed wait staff.

Chef Peter, in addition having a passion for serving the best and freshest seafood, personally overseas the baking of fresh bread and desserts each day.

The cuisine at is is decidedly Mediterranean with overtones of a classic Greek selections.

As you are greeted by your server you will be served well prepared warm bread accompanied by a white bowl filled with a colorful selection of olives from up to six continents with a scattering of pepperoncini and chili peppers to keep the fruit crisp.

For starters, they have an excellent raw bar, as well as the popular servings of Shell Fish Starters.

For winter holiday dining, Oceanos Restaurant is open for Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve, New Years Day, and Valentines Day.
