The Ocean 48 menu is designed with fresh seafood and quality ingredients in mind. The Mastros provide ultra-grade seafood, salmon, lobster, crab, oysters and more. Much of the menu is served a la carte, letting each guest personalize their experience. Ocean 48 is seafood reinvented in a vibrant upscale atmosphere specializing in world-class seafood & great steaks. Different than anything we have done in the past, the fine dining atmosphere blends dramatic and intimate settings. At the core of Ocean 48 is chef sourced, highest graded sustainable fresh seafood from around from the world, enhanced with unique and interesting appetizers and side dishes that go beyond the traditional seafood menu. Newport's best seafood & romantic restaurant.

    5 star service from start to finish. Our server was fantastic, quick, and aimed to delight even going so far as to look back on my dining history to surprise me with a late birthday treat (that none of our party directly referenced). Will definitely be back.

    Super amazing restaurant. The employees are super welcoming and even when they weren’t our waiters they would still ask if we needed anything. I’m a big Javier’s and mastros guy and 76 above guy and by far ocean 48 beats all of them. Food was super amazing. Will be returning soon, more often. Thank you guys.

    Quite possibly the best overall dining experience of my life. From the moment you arrive the service is world class, the food is outstanding and every detail of the restaurant seems carefully thought out. 100% will be returning when next in California.
