    Possibly the worst service we've ever had, and we eat out a lot. We were seated immediately and then it was 15 minutes before we saw our server. We put our order in and the next time we saw her was 45 minutes later, when she asked if we had gotten our food. We hadn't. It didn't occur to her that the whole time she hadn't seen us, we also had nothing left to drink. Expecting we wouldn't see her again, I asked for a pitcher of water. It never came. I asked the guy who brought our food 15 minutes later for water. He also didn't bring it. I had to go up to the bar and ask for water. Another 15 minutes later, when we were done, she came and asked if we needed anything else, oblivious to the fact that she hadn't done the one thing we actually asked of her. Our server at a different restaurant last night got a 60% tip. Just on principle I couldn't give this server here more than 15%, the lowest I've ever given. She did absolutely nothing to earn even that much. Nice views of the ocean. We won't be back.

    I made my NYE dinner reservations on Open Table for 4 guests at 7:30 pm . I received confirmations and reminders by email. When we arrived at The Ocean View we were advised it was a ‘private party for NYE’ and they were not serving dinner. I told the host I had confirmed reservations on Open Table and he seemed confused even after I showed him what I had received on my phone . He said the private party was $125 per head with open bar. I wasn’t interested in that. I asked him to work with us to some accommodation as this was an error on their part. He offered me a reduced rate with a free round of drinks. (It was NYE and raining - not a lot of options to go somewhere else). We stayed. Ate at the buffet and had a drink and dessert. The wait staff was great. I hope the management fixes this issue with Open Table reservations - or shuts it down if not accepting dinner reservations. I’ve always enjoyed The Ocean View and would go back again. Just won’t use Open Table.

    My server was excellent! It was a very slow night around 4 people in the restaurant. The appetizers were ok, but the entree was hot on the top and cold on the bottom. I had the seafood manicotti. And I was so disappointed because I wanted to try this so bad. And the lobster was chewy. But my waitress was fantastic!

    We had a fabulous brunch outside looking at the ocean. Unfortunately, our waitress was horrible.
