Sip a Sidecar in the lounge, sidle up to the oyster bar, or kick back in a horseshoe booth before diving into a sea of Ultra-Fresh fish, Alaskan Steak-cut Halibut, seasonal favorites like fresh Copper River salmon or hard-to-find delicacies like true Dover sole or bluefin tuna. Our daily-printed menu will guide you, a wine list as deep as the sea will seduce you, and the world's freshest seafood awaits you at the Oceanaire.

We visited the Oceanaire while staying in Denver during April. It was first class, and certainly fine dining. The ambiance was very good, and the food was excellent. My wife had a seafood platter, whilst I had a steak. Both were done to perfection. Our waiter, Brandon, was very professional but also friendly and helpful, explaining the menu to two... More

Great service by Josh. Delicious dinner and nice ambience. Entire team serving us was perfect. One of the best trout dinners and hashbrowns I've ever eaten.

We were invited here by friends. I ordered and enjoyed the "Blac & Bleu mahimahi"; yummy! The prices were a bit high. If you want more than the entree, you must order a "side". For dessert, I had the creme brulee - delicious too! My meal was easily more than $50 and I didn't even order a drink. Service was... More

We ate here one night just after their pre-DCPA rush. It took a little while to get seated, but we weren't in any big hurry. The food was a little hit and miss (more hit than miss). We liked the oysters rockefeller and fresh fish. We had a baked alaska which was as big as a house. We will probably... More

My wife and I invited an out-of-town guest who was staying downtown Denver. None of us were particularly hungry, but we wanted good food and the ability to get up-to-date in a quiet atmosphere. When making the reservation we requested a quiet table. Although I would not qualify the restaurant itself as "quiet" the staff went out of the way... More

This place has a never-ending happy hour, and it's excellent. Food and drink are delicious; prices are right; and service is over the top. After such a good experience, we will return for dinner.

Just this weekend, my husband and I went to The Oceanaire Seafood Room with his brothers and their wives, a total of six in the party. We had a reservation, but were a little bit early, and they seated us promptly. Free coat check as well! Woo! I had the Red Snapper, which came with cole slaw, and the mashed... More
