Oceano Seafood Bar & Grill - 35-02 Ditmars Blvd, Astoria, NY 11105718.721.0048
N/W Train to Ditmars Blvd (last stop)
On my way to Inside Astoria, I spotted a new restaurant called Oceano, which took the place of a French restaurant. I took notice of the menu but it didn't take too much of my interest until my friend Margot mentioned it to me the other day. I investigated some more and the place is fully open for dinner from 4p-11p on the weekdays and from 4p-12a on weekends.
Oceano offers up eclectic food options, which include a fusion of seafood, Latin and Mediterranean fare. Entrees range from a typical Chilean Sea Bass to a more exotic Churrasco con Chimichurri (grilled skirt steak with Chimichurri sauce). The prices are moderate to slightly expensive for Astoria, with most entrees in the low-mid $20 range.
