You always know what you will get at Ocean Basket - really good seafood, well prepared and plenty of it. It was just the same here. We had four different dishes and all were superb. The service was good too and the views out to sea excellent. Not quite haute cuisine but always very good.

This Ocean Basket overlooking the sea and the beautiful bay/harbour is the perfect place to celebrate 19 valentines together with a special bottle of MCC Lodestone bubbly and those salmon dressed oysters are the best ever. The staff are efficient and friendly, we had a change over and the ladies came to the table to introduce the new waitress, wow, that was great service. We always enjoy this OB, even with friends or even just sitting there and soaking up the view with some delicious cuisine and a cheers. Thank you to all who makes this place so nice to come back to always.

We flew in from JHB and went for lunch thereafter at Ocean Basket. The fish was fresh and deliciously prepared. We have been to a few Ocean Baskets, but this one really impressed us. The decadent shakes was also amazing! Raspberry Shortcake Milkshake for the win! Excellent service and food Aaaaand a view of the see while you eat.

We came here one evening during our eight night stay in PE, and made a very easy decision to return a couple of nights later. The waiting staff were very attentive, and the starter and main course that we chose were outstanding.Two outstandingly excellent meals.
