Great family place to go to for some fresh fish. The sushi is not bad for the price paid. The staff are friendly and very proactive as they clear your tables timely and ensure you are comfortable. They check on you during the meal to inquire if you are satified, without rudely intruding your meal.
Nice open plan that makes for great lunch dates and get togethers with friends and family. The Service is also good but waited a bit too long for my food ๐
Sunday lunch at Ocean Basket. We were a table of 9 and food took quite a while, longer than usual. Everyone seemed to enjoy their meal. We had a player for two and it was very tasty and large. Can't go wrong with it. Fries aren't the greatest, but they haven't been very good at Ocean Basket for a while. We had Baklava for dessert and it was very sweet and very delicious!
Decided to go here on Saturday afternoon! The initial waiter was on training and refused to bring me water for the kids saying the tap was broken!! Asked for the manager who apologized for the new waiter who was on training !
Ordered some sushi garlic bread and some fish! All the food was amazing and so was the service!
Platter for 2 - Delicious. Everything cooked to perfection. Food is so tasty there's no time to make conversation between bites ๐๐๐ฝ the pink lemonade is very refreshing on a hot day. The baklava cheesecake is a bit on the sweet side but still lovely accompanied with syrup and pecan nuts and a side of ice cream.

Wow! That truly was one of the best dinners of my life! For years I've done Ocean Basket! As ex staff I get the franchise and the business model. I realised that truly staff make or break the meal! You can't control the kitchen but the front of house staff can control the atmosphere / expectations of the evening!thank you Angie! If you leave this branch will suffer. Thank you โค๏ธ
We come here often to enjoy seafood.
I love this ocean basket as the manager is always checking on us making sure the food is perfect. The sushi is always fresh and delicious.
Food is delicious, you get what you ask for! Service is quick and the staff very friendly.
I've only ever had great service at this restaurant. The waiters and managers are respectful, very friendly and very helpful. Food is always good and I've never had a problem with it.
Popped in for some takeaways and was pleasantly surprised - the manager on duty was extremely helpful and efficient. I thoroughly enjoyed their sushi and my partner said that his fish was fresh and well prepared. Very convenient place to grab a quick supper after a long day.
An old time favorite restaurant. I simply adore the sushi bar at the Brooklyn branch and the fresh fish specials!
I popped in for a quick lunch. Service was initially good and then seemed to have slowed down. Waitering staff seemed more interested in chatting to each other than serving the customers. Nonetheless, my waitress was pleasant!
I had a village salad with prawns which was prepared with a peri peri sauce especially for me as it is not on their menu. The food was divine and I devoured all of it.
Good value for money......I will surely be back!
When it comes to birthday celebrations, we love going to Ocean Basket Brooklyn Mall, they offer the best out of them all! The service as always are excellent, friendly staff, quick to serve drinks, and after ordering meals for 10 people, we were served 20min later! We absolutely love a platter for 2, everything fried. @We always have to order extra butter lemon sause because the amount they serve are not enough to our needs. Overall the experience was great, I just think all the Ocean Baskets should not get to greedy on saving, and rather deliver the portion sizes as advertised. After all....you should get what you pay for. Ocean Basket
Had lunch at Ocean Basket Brooklyn. We had great service. The food was magnificent especially if you saw how my kids cleaned their plates. I had the kingklip grilled it was perfect. Thanks for making our family lunch special!

Very pleasant experience-service was fast, friendly and efficient. The food (pick of the ocean) was absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Even if you don't like fish it is a nice place to take the family for a nice dinner... "I would like your 'soul' please" ๐

We are ocean basket regulars and this is our favourite branch in Gauteng.. Service is rapid! We had a table outside on the square which was really nice! Never too many negatives when it comes to ocean basket.. Brooklyn branch just has tons of positives!
I love going to Ocean Basket! They always have great service with Fishen good food๐. Last night I had the prawn and mussel combo with chips and rice--it was delicious! My friend had the pick of the ocean- a definite must try to satsify a bigger appetite! I love the bread they serve before the meals especially the chilly and garlic spreads its served with.
According to me Ocean basket is always a lovely idea to enjoy a chilled lucnh or dinner knowing you'll walk away satisfied and stuffed!
Another cold winter night and I felt like more of Ocean Baskets creamy lemon garlic bread. A pan arrived with our bread with ample sauce to dip more bread in. 1 problem: 90% of the way through we found a piece of mussel shell and small piece of something which we hoped was a mussel.
Was it from a previous meal? Was it new and just cooked with the sauce? I try not to think about it!
I ordered the 12 prawns and chips. I wish I had had some more lemon butter sauce, but the prawns were very nice.
Thanks to the rich garlic bread, I didn't have space for my chips!
Our table was in direct path of a draught, so it was a bit chilly, but overall, it was a pleasant dinner.
Brooklyn Square, Ocean Basket .The service was great, a cozy restaurant on a cold night and great food ! I would definitely go back anytime for some fresh seafood.
Brooklyn Square Restaurant court is a very pleasant place to spend time in. On a Tuesday at lunchtime, when you normally would be at work, with sunshine and a clear blue sky, even more so!
After a hectic shopping spree with a teenager, I was in need of something restorative - something fresh, cool and light: Sushi at Ocean Basket.
I love to sit at the revolving Sushi Bar. They keep it fresh and simple with only basic fish, veg and sticky rice. I favored the Salmon Sashimi: smooth, delicious, almost buttery. Every dish was enjoyable, I definitely shall return again and again.
One negative comment, though: they don't use real butter over their fried fish dishes. Instead it's covered by a margarine type sauce: ghastly!
When I tell you this is some of the best calamari Iโve ever had, I donโt know what it was about it but I would recommend them in a heartbeat. I also had the fish and prawns platter. Honestly this appetizer and platter could have fed two, and at this price point, it canโt be beat. I highly recommend this for lunch or dinner.
This is a regular haunt of mine. It is good to arrive and have the waiter know your regular drinks order. Thank you Brett. The calamari strips with the extra garlic and chilli were excellent. It is a pity that the steaks are no longer available but a great supper. We'll done. Hugh

What a great experience... The food deserve a 5 star ๐ was amazing and the Appletini was nice and sweet, the staff awesome people... however the let down has always been the seats. Or the interior theme of Ocean Basket. I think the Brand needs to change their interior design theme, those chairs are not comfortable, even if we get the sitting cushion. The back rest is still wood...
Loved the experience!
The food is so good, I really recommend the calamari.
The atmosphere is very nice and relaxing, not too loud.
Our waiter, Brett, was so kind and made us feel very welcome. Amazing job, keep it up!!
i enjoyed myself at ocean basket , the food was good and the service i got was good all thanks to Resego Moeketsi i didn't know what to eat so she help me decide and she was so patient with me thanks to her.

Resego is a good waitress and she has a beautiful smile and she's down to earth and very welcoming๐๐๐ฅฐ
Resego Moeketsi who is waitress was more polite and friendly I got my food in no time
Fast and fresh seafood, but the cocktails & coolers were a bit too sweet for me.
Went there with colleagues as two of them was their last day today. Food was great and the service too was good
We arrived at 9pm, and the kitchen was closed but the manager said we were welcome to stay! We ordered grilled calamari and a sushi plater. The service was prompt and the food was excellent. Really appreciated the fact that all of the staff went out of their way to make 2 weary travellers feel welcome in a big city. Thank you ๐
Great music. Clean store. Great service. Amazing food.
Amazing food and friendly staff and manager. Taking that extra step of effort on every thing they do.
