Ocean Grill Restaurant Review:


Though casual in approach, Ocean Grill has dialed in a menu worthy of the view, which can be enjoyed from almost any seat in the house. The de rigueur clam chowder, crab cakes, and fish and chips are all done well, as are other seafood options such as local rockfish tacos, seared diver scallops with pork belly, and Morro Bay black cod with a miso glaze. Land-based favorites include crispy Brussels sprouts with dried cherries and goat cheese, a pork chop with roasted onion/apple jam, and any of the six wood-fired pizzas (which are great happy hour noshes). For dessert, enjoy a seasonal fruit sorbet or a brown butter chocolate chip skillet cookie topped with vanilla ice cream. The eight taps offer a good selection of mostly craft drafts; the wine list is a nice, focused mix of predominantly local labels.
