First time at this branch and I’m very satisfied. The restaurant is very clean inside and we’ve received excellent service from the staff. The food came quickly and everything was perfect. Definitely one of my favourite Ocean Basket branches.
First time eating at the Umhlanga branch and was very pleased with the service from our waiter Ted. The food was prepared rather quick. The sushi was fresh which is always pleasing. The Platter for 2 is a good recommendation as you get a variety of seafoods to taste from. The only disappointment was the grilled fish ordered in our Platter which did not have a fresh taste to it - it was their catch of the day. Overall a good experience and will definitely be going back there for more
Wonderful food, great staff and chilled music on Sunday afternoon....been there numerous times and they are always consistent. Pop in for a visit.
It’s a nice restaurant that’s clean, their food is nice the staff are nice too. Well priced and the setting isn’t bad either.never been disappointed

Food standards meet. View was good from the higher elevated level. I ordered water but they recommended I try their lemonade which was refreshing and served 3 of us adequately. We all 3 ordered fish and chips half rice and half chips. Our waitress Wendy was gave good service
Been to the Gateway branch but I'm not sure why can't find it on zomato. Seafood platter for 2 is alwayz the case with my Bf and I. Delicious. Good service.
If you looking for seafood plain and simple at a great price tag, its hard to find better... exotic seafoods, look elsewhere !!, be careful of the lemon butter sauce which tends to be a bit excessive so ask for less, and the rest on the side !!
All in all, dont dissapoint on the simple seafoods
Food: I simply love the lemon sauce they cooked their fish and Prawns in. Its lips smacking. Really. I also love their pink lemonade jugs.. it serves about 4 glasses, so it good for a family sharing. The fish and Prawns are always fresh. And the sushi is also very good. The desserts they serve are also very tasty. I loved the Chocolate lava cake. It was decadent and a chocoholics dream come true. The Italian kisses was also very tasty. Its like small ice cream lollipops covered with chocolate. Each lollipop has its own flavour like chocolate, vanilla, cinnamon.
Ambience : Its bright and welcoming.
Service : Everytime I've been here the service was great. The food came on time and it was upnto standard.
One of my favorite seafood places. Ocean basket never disappoints. Platters are affordable, service is great, and the hake and chips is always a winner. 👍🏼
Perfect, excellent staff and very nice and generous food !! Would highly recommend the taster for one , was very very good indeed !! The waiter was so so friendly and very attentive .
Excellent food. Service was good considering they were very busy
We had such an amazing experience at your restaurant. The service was delightful, friendly, efficient and so accommodating to our requests. The food matched the service. Even morsel was deliciously prepared and fresh as can be. Highly recommended.
We were disappointed when they told us they have run out off bread rolls. This was on a Saturday night so most probably would be replenished only on Monday. The calamari dish had to be sent back. The calamar.i that was replaced was excellently prepared. Would definitely order that dish again
Great atmosphere, excellent service and the food was lekker fresh and delicious 😋 😋 😋. I will definitely be going back there
My recent dining experience at Ocean Basket in Umhlanga Lagoon Drive left me thoroughly impressed. This was my second visit, and I must say it stands out as one of the best Ocean Basket locations, consistently maintaining high standards of quality and taste.
Having seen numerous TikTok reviews of their lunchtime specials, my companions and I decided to give it a try, and it certainly lived up to the hype. Upon arrival, we were presented with steaming rolls accompanied by the authentic Ocean Basket tzatziki sauce, crushed chili, and crushed garlic, setting the stage for a flavor-packed meal.
For just 89 rand, I indulged in a plate of 6 tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked prawns, bathed in a creamy garlic sauce. Alongside them were 3 plump mussels, also drenched in the same delectable sauce, served with piping hot, fresh, and delightfully crispy chips. It was a mouthwatering combination of flavors and textures that left a lasting impression.
What's even more remarkable is that Ocean Basket's lunch special offerings start at an incredibly affordable 55 rand, making it accessible to a wide range of diners.
In conclusion, Ocean Basket in Umhlanga Lagoon Drive continues to excel in delivering seafood of the highest quality. Their lunchtime specials are a steal, offering fantastic value for money. Whether you're a seafood lover or just looking for a delicious and budget-friendly meal, I highly recommend giving their specials a try. You won't be disappointed.
Ocean Basket is the go to place for comfort food and great service.
The staff is ever so welcoming, always ready to assist and greet with a smile. We were well taken care of, great job 🙂
We visited after a really long time and were very impressed by the food.
Despite having loadshedding, the meals were fresh and cooked great. They only were able to serve grilled foods.
The waiters were also very friendly. Will definitely be back when in the area again.
Delicious food and location. Adotty provided superb service. Can’t go wrong choosing this location!
The food was fairly good - the preparer of fish must be very careful not to overcook it.
The waiters weren't very attentive, especially when it came to wanting the bill which took an age to arrive. And then to bring the card machine!
The restaurant was very noisy. Perhaps that can't be be helped.
Just went to have coffee yesterday at Umhlanga OB. I was surprised at the service given. I ordered a latte. It came with 2 mini square bread rolls together with coleslaw, garlic and chilli sauce. No extra charge only paid for the latte R30. Nice relaxing atmosphere. Close to the new Oceans Mall
