    Walking in you were immediately welcomed by staff who are polite and professional. your jacket is checked, if you wish, and you are led to your table (assuming you have a reservation or a table is open). the tables are clean and already set neatly and service is provided almost instantaneously. All staff were professional and accommodating. They were knowledgeable on the options and could guide you based on your preferences. the food was amazing and well worth the price. We originally went due to being recommended for paella but every bite and sip we had was amazing.

    Couldn’t have been happier with the food and service. The crab cakes were…crabby..with a light crispy outside. The French onion soup was classic, and the steaks were seasoned and cooked to perfection. The chocolate chip cookies, like the steak, were cooked medium but with a chewy crust. It was money well spent.

    This was my first time dining at Union Ouster House. The service and the food were absolutely outstanding. We had the shrimp and scallops, poor man’s lobster, grilled salmon, and the fisherman’s platter. Every thing came out perfectly. Most people do not realize how much the cost of buying seafood has gone up. For these times the prices were fair some people may disagree.
