- SSusanvipGreater Boston •16 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 2, 2024The meal and service were wonderful. We ordered the crab cake appetizer and the lobster noodle entree. Both were fantastic: Very well cooked and beautifully flavorful. Our waitress, Wendy, was very attentive throughout the night and made great suggestions and answered all of our questions about the menu. We had a window seat so everything was perfect!More infoThe Ocean House RestaurantPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• Dennis•4.8
