My regular fish fix. Always fresh, great staff and my favorite ... ice cream and halva! Keep it up. Husband favorite is the sushi and mine is the fresh feesh and chips!

As far as Ocean Basket's go, I was impressed with my visit to this little outlet serving up seafood and sushi at Morning View Centre.
Service:
Friendly, attentive and quick!
Food:
It was a cold, rainy day so I wanted typical comfort food offerings so I decided to sample some of the new dishes recommended by the waiter.
- Tomato Fish Soup: Tomato & Mediterranean herb soup with white fish pieces. This soup was well-prepared but my least favourite dish of the day and just not to my tastes at all.
- Grilled calamari tossed in Mediterranean salsa topped with rocket.
- Creamy Salmon Soup, with a rich, velvety texture and a sprinkle of spring onion for zest. This creamy salmon soup was absolute perfection and had so much flavour!
- Deep fried Warehou Goujons with zesty mayo. Silver Warehou is a game fish sourced from the deep Pacific waters of New Zealand and has firm, white flesh with a high fat content that is ideally suited to Winter feasting, offering a thick fillet with very few bones. It was my first time eating it and found it to be a good comfort meal for Winter.
Interiors:
Typically OB interiors but cozy with a decent play area for families with children.
*Recommendation: OB is mixing it up with their latest menu offering and I like that it is part of the movement away from unsustainable, depleted stocks in our oceans with its offerings of Warehou and local linefish.

Best ocean basket by far, great food, great atmosphere, great service and the owner Timo is a really wonderful man who cares about his restaurant and customers so much
We went for a quick lunch and advised the waiter we were in a hurry..we ordered and our food promptly arrived I thoroughly enjoyed my Cajun calamari and halloumi cheese..the stir fried veg was really tasty too..my mum enjoyed her grilled kingklip too..friendly attentive service
Really phenomenal and prompt service. Waiter was incredibly attentive. Great food and ambience. Management was actively involved in the kitchen. Not surprisingly had a very good meal.
I joined my parents for dinner here on Thursday evening (23 March). It really was a great meal. I had the famous and chips, my dad had the grilled sole and my mom had the bonsai sushi platter. The service was excellent and I am most impressed by the owner who is always present and treats his customers like family.
You get Ocean Baskets and then you get OCEAN BASKETS. Sandton City's outlet I avoid at all expense, the Morningside one however is small, family oriented and always a pleasure to visit. As can he expected, the menu offers the same variety as elsewhere. The quality of the meals and service are however significantly better. Well done, you guys have a winning recipe here (no pun intended) !

Definitely worth a try! Had a great experience and much better than when I used Uber Eats and got the wrong order and cold and burnt food! They have definitely upped their game! Will give them another try. #welldone
Service was fantastic- our waiter was friendly and efficient. Food was DELICIOUS! We had fish and calamari. Calamari was as soft as butter. Such a lovely dinner!
I like ocean basket...good, affordable seafood that is tasty. This one is no different. Had the seafood platter for two...they were happy to swop the fish for prawns. The venue is quite cozy for a winter's day. Good lunch.
The staff are lovely, following all covid protocols, the food and sushi was amazing. The white sangria did however have a weird aftertaste. Ba definite must try, their food is exceptional
Small restaurant space but a nice outdoors seating and children's play area. The service is good, the food is tasty and well prepared.
Expense $
I ordered a platter for two, which includes Calamari heads and tails, Prawns, Hake (fish) with rice and chips.
I was little afraid to taste sea food because of smell.
But the story is different here, it's so delicious and no smell.
Worthy to be there.

The food is amazing and the service Is impeccable. This ocean basket is by far the best that I have ever been to. I have been here several times since 2017 and they have been and are still serving great food.
Nice service and the food is very ok. Will come back
Ocean Basket staff were very friendly & welcoming on saturday. I requested 2 grilled hake with chips & rice which was ready promptly. I was also offered for my order to be brought to my car. The lemon butter sauce that accompanied the meal was outstanding. So I will definitely visit this restaurant again soon. The place is also kept spotlessly clean including their tables.
This is my first visit to this OB branch. Seems each OB brings something unique, this one is the delightful dessert menu (note to self, Do Not bring your Pilates instructor with you to lunch next time!). Although we had a rocky start (sorry, we don't have this, we don't have that in stock), the day went well thanks to good service and great food.
I was amazed at how good the sushi was. Admittedly, my friends had it, not me. But from the presentation and tastes I had, I was impressed.
I tend to avoid this Ocean Basket because their service is usually slow. But, apart from forgetting a glass of water, they were pretty much on point. I'll give it another shot some time. They've kinda redeemed themselves.
Great service, great food and great prices. What more could one ask for. Prawns were amazing, sushi was amazing and the service was great. Definitely my new seafood spot, and for those who haven’t been there I strongly recommend it...you won’t regret it
Well done to the staff and managers. Keep up the great work
I have visited the restaurant a number of times with my two young children. The kids love the food and the opportunity to play in a small and simple play area, but it gives them the chance to release none the less. The waiters are attentive, the service is quick and the food is very good .
Ocean Baskets have the reputation for producing really good fish dishes at even better prices. A great venue for a nice dinner.
