Phoned and said we are coming to celebrate my Mothers 85 birthday. Manageres Lindi and waiter Jane went out of there way to decorate our table and added a balloon and 2 bottles of wine on ice. Excellent meal. Afterwards she could break a plate and the staff sang along. Excellent evening. One to remember. Well done Lindi and staff. You should be praised for the extra mile you went. See you soon.

Last night we ordered take away from Ocean basket Merino mall. Got the platter for one and asked them to swap out the mussels for calamari. At first they wanted to charge us R45 extra for the calamari, while on their website it showed it is R40 order extra calamari. After explaining for a long time that we don’t want to add it extra, we shouldn’t have to pay R45 extra for just swopping something they said the can swop the mussels for 55g of calamari for R6 extra - so we agreed to it. It didn’t seem like there was extra calamari, there was also no calamari heads (and nothing else that seemed more of in the place of calamari heads) and the food was not at all on the normal ocean basket standard. The food was just okay. Definitely disappointed

Service wasn’t the greatest. The food took too long, the waitress didn’t even seem interested in serving us. It was our second time here and both times we were not impressed.

We had a relaxing meal, but one thing they should ensure is to have a better stock of their wine

Food was very tasty on the three occasions that we visited. Kitchen was quick on the draw and our servers were friendly. The hake and chips is great value in my opinion.

Got to our table and waited a long time for a waiter to come and take our drinks order. I got up and went to manager to ask if we are going to get a waiter. He replied jokingly “I hope so”?!? We waited a few more minutes and at last we got a waiter. The waiter took our drinks order. After 35min of waiting just to get our drinks, we got up and left the restaurant. Hope they sort out their bad service issues.. Not a pleasant first experience at the new Ocean Basket.

The weiter offered us a very good service however, the meal was not up to standard. We order a platter and hake and chips. The hake was over fried it was like a fat cake out side. I really hope you'll improve.
had the greatest experience with our waiter Linda, gave us the best service, the food was really good too
