Last night I had the pleasure of eating at Ocean 82 in Grand Case. It was indeed grand. The food was spectacular. We were a table of eight. So many different appetizer and dinner.
There was the trafitional escargot. Superb.... The lobster ravioli in a broth which they raved about. Caesar salad was also a favorite.
Dinners were also a success. Grilled Dover sole which was deboned at the table. Came with a lovely potato. And veggies...
Lobster fettuccine which was in a light pink sauce with lobster throughout.
Quite yummy...Mahi Mahi and a delicious scallop dinner with duck along top. The desserts were in a class of their own.
Portfilleros were the dessert of most. You got three large with a delicious chocolate sauce. I had the soufflé which was so light and airy and so so tasty it came with a chocolate and vanilla sauce.
Service was quite good for such a busy night which brings me to the bad part....if u are not interested in harmony night Tuesday is not the night for Grand Case. Streets are packed, restaurants are jammed.
While we had a lovely time, the place was a bit noisy and so crowded.
If u want to go for harmony night, it looks like fun...I saw a lot of vendors with cute items as I had to walk to my cab as the street is closed to traffic but I recommend u eat the street food and walk about...food smelled good and people seemed to having a blast... Save ocean 82 for a quieter night in Grand Case

Thanks for the report. Your commentary does make sense, to save a big dining experience for a less crowded night.

Regarding Harmony Night in Grand Case. If the main street is closed to vehicular traffic, where would one park? Also, is it sensible driving there in the evening from Simpson Bay? I've been there only during the daytime.

We love dining at Ocean 82! It is always a lovely dining experience there overlooking the water. I totally agree that harmony Night is not the best night to enjoy that dining experience. On harmony night we prefer to dine overlooking the street at Le Cottage or another good restaurant not on the water side. It is fun to watch the parade from the balcony at Le Cottage. We have done that many times.

Moontide, when the street is closed, you can park in one of the lots or on the roadside leading to the airport. You always have to go early(before 6 P.M.) on harmony Night to find a parking spot before the festivities commence.

If I remember they run shuttles from the airport parking lot to the end of the main drag.

They have done that in the past, but recent reports said they didn't do that since opening this year.Maybe they will start again later.
